I used to believe the truth, Used to know up from down Banished, then forgiven Still I cling to you. My soul in jeopardy, My life at risk. My rear view mirror clouded From the dust that will not settle. The sadness, the madness, The two entwine as one. How long before I die to self? How long before I break away? Strangled breath, Racing pulse Redemption out of reach. How long, I cry, how long, Till I learn to breath again…. Copyright 2007 Emanaia Buried at PhotoCasket.com The image is there, can't you see it? No she says softly. The reflection is bright, You are not the same I still see the old, she says The larger image on the screen. But that's not who you are now I see how its always been, she says. Don't you see you're dying? Dying to get out, she says How can you be so blind? I see what they let me see, she says. Wake up and see what's real. I'd rather dream of my perception, she says. When will you see the truth? The truth is too painful, she says I must finish what I began When will you know you're finished? When perfection and beauty are attained, she says. Copyright 2007 Emanaia My main interest is creating 3D art pinups, which takes up a ton if not most of my free time. I also like to read: Patricia Cornwell, Tami Hoag,Bram Stoker and Author Conan Doyle. You can usually find me i the kitchen at some point, cooking, baking, etc. I love to experiment, and I am quite good at it. Don't watch much TV except maybe House or CSI now and then. Buried at PhotoCasket.com My reflection dull My perception warped Perfection not attained My ambition lost. You said you loved me Through anger clinched teeth You made me believe I was too lost to reach. I held you up high I worshiped your walk I thought you were perfect You thought you were God. I can now see your colors Your mask slipping down The demon emerges Your evil surrounds. You think I can’t see The damage you’ve done The trials I’ve faced The battles I’ve won. You’re slowly decaying You’ll soon fade away But my memories of you Daddy Will always remain. Copyright 2007 Emanaia Buried at PhotoCasket.com Can you really love me for who I am Or just who you thought I was? No I haven't changed I've merely woken up and discovered who I really am. I am no longer just a part of you But an extension of myself The old one has died away And the new one surfacing as from a deep dark sea. Struggling to catch my breath Wincing at the new blinding light I am now my own I will start anew. Can you love me for who I am, Or only who you thought you knew? Copyright 2007 Emanaia Buried at PhotoCasket.com I'm crying in the storm, Can't you hear me? Down on my knees, Screaming out your name. Needing your hand To reach down and pull me out. Can you not hear me, Or have you forsaken me? I'm drowning, Feeling myself going under. Can you hear me? Will you save me, Or watch as I slowy drift away, Gasping for breath, My heartbeat slowing, Bleeding for your touch. Can you hear me? I need to feel you near me, Wrapped inside your soul. My Master, my safehouse. Can you hear me? Through sleepless,dreamless nights, I await your call. Can you hear me, Or have you turned away forever.... Copyright 2007 Emanaia

Most anything alternative, rock, and yeah, I'm a retro girl in some aspects. Fear not and kiss me Love Do not thou wait too long, When midst the Winter's calling sighs For then I shall be gone Your touch has pricked my heart, my soul Thou breath has warmed my skin, My nights are filled with dreams of you As one that never ends You'll hear my voice speak though the wind The stars shine like my eyes Once again you'll still think of me Till then I say goodbye. Copyright 2007 Emanaia Buried at PhotoCasket.com Wrapping myself inside of you Strap my soul in, hold it fast Wanna flow right through your veins Intertwining within my own. Feel me slither through your being Your hands deep inside my heart Holding me, holding you, never letting go. Craving me, needing you Lusting for what we'll always have. You are mine and I am yours Biting, scratching, tearing slowly At the foundations of our past. With razors, tore away the surface Till honesty and love bled through. What holds our souls together? Love, insanity, perversion, Lust? When we go down, deep down on it We'll know both the pleasures and the pain. We know the future holds no certainty Only a candle flickering in the rain. Copyright Emanaia 2007 I dressed in black, Crown of thorns on my head Made believe I was something Anything more than I ever was. Became a slave to your mind, your thoughts, your ways How could I bite the hand that fed, for mine just bled to please the dead I don't dream anymore I'll lock away the past before I open the door I lost so much of me that I just couldn't keep score No I don't dream anymore Thorns pierced my heart Till completely drained out You knew me better than me The end to all was to come Chewed up, spit out The hand was dealt, my soul left dead I sleep eternal, no breath left I don't dream anymore I'll lock away the past before I open the door I lost so much of me that I just couldn't keep score No I don't dream anymore Closing my mind Won't be pulled back Won't open to what I knew I've taken back what was mine What's left, what's there The broken pieces, my last words No hand shall touch, no more control I don't dream anymore I'll lock away the past before I open the door I lost so much of me that I just couldn't keep score No I don't dream anymore Copyright Emanaia 2007 Buried at PhotoCasket.com Do you see me in my dreams? I know I see you. Your addictiveness showing all too well. Through tragedies in life you have brought me down Laughed in my face and then turned me down I need you near me I want you in me I need to feel your poison Pouring down my throat once more I loved you through good and bad You pushed me down below You made me feel immortal at times Then brought me to my knees fastened tightly down Mocking me as you watched me die I need you near me I want you in me I need to feel your poison Pouring down my throat again Overcame you long ago I hid you from my mind You watched as I walked away from you Knowing the desires that would come once again But I made believe you were gone I need you near me I need you in me I need to feel your poison Pouring down my throat again Don't ever think this is over.....
