Gone
The sun got weary
of seeing men squander in her light.
But when she is gone
The men get dreary.
They wish her gone
When it gets too much.
It doesn’t matter
She’ll come back
Come dawn.
You don’t know
You miss something
Until it’s gone.
Since they don’t
Want my warmth
They will have to squander
In snow....
Fall In Love With Eyes
Everyone always says that when you fall in love, make sure you love their looks, personality, profession, and temporary things like that. However, my grandma always told me not to fall in love with a man’s looks, those will fade, and his skin will wrinkle. Don’t fall in love with his profession, not even his personality, for you should fall in love with his eyes. A persons eyes will always have a ...
A Promise
I told you it was dangerous
But you wouldn’t have it
At first it went smooth
But you’ll now have to commit.
Lost to the wind
Never found again
Freed by the bind
Watching from the den
You venture on the path
For a very long time
And for what,
A lousy old mine?
Lost in the fog
Alone in the deep
Bound by a promise
That you couldn’t keep....
In The Shadows
I wake up here and I am already wishing I was dead. Our world is a horride place but there is a all-known, but never spoken, rule about the darkest place. The deep shadows. Now shadows don’t seem so bad. The silently follow and mimic you every move or anything casting it. You can’t just hop into a shadow and simply be in it; however, no knows how you get ejected into the abyss. Honestly, you have...
Take Your Shot
The ballad is posted. I pray, and I pray, every year that my name isn’t printed on that paper that will create my fate, one life altering event. Once, it was a show of worthy. Now, it’s just a blood bath. As I stride over to the gathering crowd I see him. He sees me. A breath, and he makes his way to me.
“How unfortunate,” I sigh.
“Good morning to you to, Bea,” he remarks.
We walk over to the part...
I’m Sorry I Loved You
The crisp morning breeze gave me new hope and inspiration towards this day. Walking down town with my best friend makes me feel amazing. Like I can breathe for the first time in months. I have loved him for so long and today is the day I have to tell him. Maybe for once the feeling will be reciprocated. He is my best friend and I really don’t want to lose him but I guess this is where he would say...
Falling Into Future
50 years ago people probably aussumed the worst about the future of our planet. I think there were even books written called dystopian novels, where authors wrote stories about how distructive our planet and community would become if we don’t take care of it. Well I’m currently living in what they call the future except we didn’t fall apart, we fell into place. We collectivity decided we didn’t wa...
Pink Carnations
A woman dressed in a sleek blazer and a tight bun aproches me with a solemn expression. I know what’s coming but my knowing doesn’t help when it’s spoken.
“I’m so sorry to be the one to tell you this but your mother passed a week ago and granted her home down to her eldest daughter. That’s you I assume?”
“You know what they say about assuming,” I hide my feelings for my late mother behind the bric...
