We fell like forgotten stars upon damp grass,
and as the world tumbled us,
it seemed the sun left us too
to live in the cold and wretched world,
that sought our death and when-
my friend and I had nothing left,
we turned and saw forbidden sights,
that left the soul dying for more,
My friend saw more than I,
and although I kissed the dampness of sweet water,
and drank till my thirst was quenched,
Hope decided he needed more,
and he plunged his hands into the earth-
seeking the wonderful sustenance often given to passing animals,
but there was nothing but a sinking void,
that wrenched hope downward-
deep into the earth,
to stay forever.
Reflections of the soul
Projected against silence-
Deciphered,
But never fully understood.
A language spoken smoothly,
Rhythmically,
Like the trickle of a brook.
It is a cultivation of society:
A cry of the people for hope-
For peace and for love.
Some seek in it a refuge,
Others see it as a friend.
It has a power
The likes of which can never be harnessed.
We call it music.
It's hard to forget,
Things in the past,
They tend to make you regret,
Everything that happened so fast.
It hurts like a deathblow,
How I took your happiness,
But it's a comfort to know,
That you offer me forgiveness.
Who am I?
Why do you constantly taunt me?
What do you want from me?
Does it make you happy to see me suffer?
Good.
Bad.
Evil.
What am I?
A kind soul.
A deranged spirit.
A confused person.
Ever since that day...
That dreadful...
Awful day...
I do not know who I am.
I feel like the scum of the Earth.
I feel like I deserve nothing.
I feel like I am nothing.
Why do I deserve to be happy?
He was not happy...
He was not the same when he died...
Why did he have to die such a miserable death...
And I have to keep on living with this fake happiness?
Who am I?
Why do you like confusing me?
Am I good?
Bad?
Please make up yo
You tell me that I have eyes like the sea, So I
Suppose I should compare you to the sky-
Perfect and bright and endless.
If I were really the sea, and you truly the sky, this would make sense.
You see, like the ocean to the heavens, I too swell beneath you, ebbing and
flowing at your command.
I can hear you scoff as you read this.
I believe I may have you fooled, so allow me to set the record straight:
I have placed no shackles on you, I have no right to keep you.
Like the sky, you may bend any way you wish.
Your colors may change, your clouds may take different forms,
You may grow and grow until you burst.
The sea is set in its w
Each one of your hairs are tiny wisps of fire
that dance through the air and into my throat.
I breath in, out, in again- it's you I find there
choking and burning all of my breath.
It is a ritual so often preformed on the soft of heart,
Men light themselves aflame and dance into the night
until the orb is so bright, it consumes all
the malleable souls that came to watch.Yes,
men illuminate the dark when a lady is in shadow.
I have seen great lands taken by this scorching heat, but
never quite like this. Your fire would light up the whole
world, if you'd let it. But then, where would I be?
Turns out, the pain you cause when you
I got asked today "What is Love?"
I had to stop and think about it carefully,
It's not something I really know of.
But as I thought I came to see,
That Love is all around me.
Love is when my friends have a tear in their eye,
From laughing at my terrible jokes,
As I try to figure out why.
Love is receiving a text when you're lonely,
And getting a random hug in the hallway,
It's knowing that someone considers you their only.
Love can make your heart burn,
It can cause the greatest of pains,
It is the greatest lesson learned.
Love's a reassuring smile when everything's wrong,
Letting you know that your not alone,
Love will make y
Through the clouds and black skies,
a light shined so bright,
it was like sun in the day,
brighter then a million distant stars.
I clawed my way towards the light
with water closing in,
a gasp of air escaped my lips,
as the ocean clawed at my sides.
Still I fought through the rocks,
and crawled towards that glittery light,
but I found I could move no further,
and sank into the abyss.
