Spike's Poetry

Hika-chan: I went on a total Spike binge a little while ago. And after watching "Fool For Love" again, I remembered Spike used to write poetry (albeit he was really bad) when he was alive so I thought why wouldn't he do it again?

Wall papers made from the poetry here

** = Not about Buffy
* = The "Sure, let's kill the slayer" phase

**The Darkest - 11/5/01
I was broken and cast aside.
You took my life into yourself,
I took your power into me,
I was dead, but now alive.
Souless and without remorse or care.
You saw it in me,
That which I didn't know I had.
You brought it out in me.
Made me thirst for it
From within you brought the lust,
the lust for danger,
the desire for destruction.
And you made me
You brought it from within
The darkest.


**The Four - 11/8/01
We were a plague
My sire,
her sire,
his,
and me,
We traveled the world.
And we brought with us
all things nasty
Death,
Mayhem,
Destruction,
Pestilence...
To our prey we were all these things
And we reveled in the knowledge of it
Shedding blood was a nightly cause for joy
Not just in the act
but in how we did it
We took joy and pleasure
with every kill
We are the living dead,
death to the living


**What You Were - 11/8/01
You were the best
Probably better than me
Cold and ruthless
Like lucifer himself
Faithful only to your sire
She that made you what you were
But a fatal mistake
For your victim and for you
For revenge they made you feel again
Feel more than the esctacy we evil creatures know
They made you regretful, remorseful, merciful
They really did kill you,
But we didn't realize it then.
Reguardless we knew we had to take vengence
That too is our nature
So we killed them all
for clipping the wings
of a fallen angel


**Rebel - 11/10/01
Black leather and my own rules
Other people say things
I don't even listen,
much less care.
No tradition holds me
I ally to no one
That is what I am.
I refuse to run and be slain
So I hunt my would be Slayers,
I seek them out,
and I kill them.
I disturb the natural order
But just enough
for me to have my fun.
It's just what I do
It's just what I am
a Rebel.


**The Big Bad - 11/9/01
"I'm the big bad."
Black clad with attitude.
I play it cool.
I hunt,
And they can see
I hunt like I'm looking for fun.
And I am,
but of a different kind.
The play before the kill,
the seduction,
makes it all worth it.
the lust in their eyes,
the hunger in mine,
They trust me to lead them
"We'll go somewhere private
Where I can just eat you up."
They never realize I mean it,
until it's too late.
They're so delicious like that
"You should never have followed me,
followed me into the woods.
I told you,
I'm the Big Bad."


*I will - 11/8/01
You cut me off at every turn,
Want to stake me,
watch me burn.
I will kill you,
just you wait,
we will destroy that which you are.
Just like I did,
To those before you.
They were young and strong,
much like you.
But I killed them all,
and I'll get you too.


*His Old Ways - 11/12/01
He was stripped of his greatness
His soul restored
A poor, pathetic thing he was
Tortured and all that
He was a mockery
of what it is to be us
You had him under your thumb
What a wretched creature.
Ah, but then he came back
Back to the fold.
His soul twice removed
Now he is ruthless
heartless
A vengeful creature once again
Returned to his old ways
Now he is truly returned to us
And it's all thanks to you.
You gave him your love
and you showed him
In that act you raped him of his soul.
Now tell me
Aren't you proud?


*The Hunt - 11/9/01
You are prey
I am prey
You are a hunter
and so am I
Hunters hunting each other
But the hunt goes no where
You do not seek me out
Not as I do you
unless I do something
You wait
I am impatient though
I lure you out any chance I get
And you beat me back
till I come back again
And the Hunt continues...


*Fun - 11/12/01
You finally rest
And get to kick back
I get bored
So I attack.
I attack,
you chase.
You chase,
I run.
So we continue at this hectic pace
But you gotta admit
It's damn fun.


Like Me - 11/7/01
I want to see you
Not as you are now
But how would you be
If you were exactly like me
Raped of you heroism
Free of conscience
Liberated from constraint
Thirsy for blood.
Would you be worse then me,
If nothing held you back?
More deadly, more leathal
Innocence dead in your heart
Innocents dead at your feet
Blood dripping from your lips
Begging for me to lick it off
A taunting grin,
That wicked gleam in your eyes
If only I could see you like that


**Like You - 11/9/01
I want to see you like me.
But what if I were like you?
If I were like that again...
Too strange,
To walk in the sun,
To see myself again.
Why can't I see it?
It's nonsense.
Forget it...


The Same 11/8/01
Beautiful,
Graceful,
you are that.
Light as a feather,
Deadly as a blade,
That you can see.
But you don't realize
what you really are
Slayer,
Killer,
Murderer.
The first you see
But not the rest
It's not just your job,
It's your nature,
To kill that which goes bumb in the night
You look at me with disgust
Just because of my nature,
Because of what I am,
Hunter, Killer, Murderer.
But before you put me down,
try and realize what you are
And know one thing,
know this,
we are the same


I wake - 10/01
Moon beams in your hair, starlight my spies.
With you in my arms, a dream has come true within my own eyes.
Your heart beats fast but you can't feel mine.
It would race if it could. My blood run hot when you came near.
Your scent envelops me as it should,
your voice muddles my mind.
Everything about you is mine.
How happy I am that you I can take.
You are all mine...
and then I wake.


The Lion and the Lamb - 10/01
She was a broken doll,
hunched over on the steps.
She heard me come,
me the wolf,
the killer,
the bloody.
Her eyes glittered like the moon on the sea.
Wet and dripping all her sorrows.
She might as well have been a mere babe to me.
Did she know my intent?
Did she care?
I could have killed her then,
no time would have been easier.
But she looked at me,
looked me straight in the eyes.
If a picture is worth a thousand words,
her eyes were worth a million.
I was trapped,
the hunter was caught by the eyes of the deer.
The weapon hid in my jacket never to be revealed that night,
I sat next to her and put my hand on her back,
A feeble and silent comfort.
And there we were, the lion and the lamb...


In the Dark - 10/01
The moon is my sun.
The sun my bane,
which shines down light,
the color of my mane.
The light burns,
just like your eyes,
into my soul,
and in my mind.
How can it be you abandon my heart,
and leave me alone in the dark...


Red as Blood - 10/01
Life, Love, Roses
All these are red as blood.
That which is life,
That which has stopped flowing,
A toy, a scarf, your lips,
All can be as red as blood.
My heart doesn't beat
but it doesn't matter
As long as I love you
My heart is nothing without you.
Love, My heart and yours that won't love me back,
As red as blood.


Angel's Last Flight - 11/8/01
Hell opened It's gates,
And only blood could close it,
The blood of that you held dearest opened it,
But you saw that you could close it.
You told her to do what's right,
to try to protect and love.
Then you left her and dove,
Like a wingless angel taking flight.
The sight was terrifying and beautiful,
A falling angel but not fallen.
And when it ended your spirit rose.
Your soul rose, out tears fell.
you left for heaven,
and left us in hell.


Lost - 11/9/01
You died,
but your friends brought you back to us,
Well not to us, but to them,
you never came back for me.
But you didn't want to come back
You were not afraid
I have no doubt
you were happy
you were at peace
And they tore you away
You told me this
Why?
Why tell one like me?
Then tell me not to tell
They couldn't bear it you say
So why say anything at all?
And once again why to me?
You would be lost if you had no one to tell
So you tell me,
do you think I don't care?
I wish I would have stopped them
if I knew you would know this pain
You would be lost without me to tell


Lost II - 12/01/01
Little girls shouldn't walk alone
And not through the dangerous woods
Are you lost?
Of course you are
Because you don't what you are
not anymore, you're... wrong
Did you come back missing something?
Or did you become something more?
Either way you need me
You can relate to me.
You can tell me things
You can barely tell yourself
I will never judge
at least not like your friends
You are lost
Let me help you find the way.


**Witch - 11/9/01
You little witch
Your power is great
for one not born of it
And though you have this power
You cannot truly control it
The power has gotten to your head
You can't see it can you?
Your witch girl does
but you shut her up
You argue
you speak
but you don't listen
And you say you love her.
Magic like all things
has limits
has rules
You say you know them
but you know nothing
You do not learn
Your spells have gone wrong before
So why use them so irresponsibly?
You must learn witch
Learn or stop,
but you do neither.


Moods - 12/01/01
I have seen them all,
all the ways you can be,
The apathy in your eyes as you finish foe,
The joy when it's all over,
You wistful smile when you,
for an instant,
almost forget your destiney.
The fear when you might lose
the fight or a friend.
The tears when you fail to save the day
or just your heart
The blantant disgust when you look at me
covering that hidden passion
there is a desire, the one you alwyas deny
I have seen all your moods
I can see behind your eyes


**The Cross - 11/26/01
There are
things
that you
take for
granted.
Things I can no longer do or see like you.
Things you wouldn't realize I miss.
Things I didn't think I would ever miss.
a simple
thing like
a reflection.
The sun,
and it's
warmth;
without
the burning.
My kind
we are cursed.
But we do
not always
realize it.
It's the cross
we bare.
