The city of love was shuddered today A proposal was rescheduled and a sweet gesture silenced By a scattering of devils who advocate terror & violence The Mona Lisa wept and the Metro bawled ‘Où est le courage?’ Il n’y avait pas courage The cowardly men who fought guns against pens Let them know after all their wrong The Eiffel tower still remains tall and strong For it is the liberal views that brought Paris such beauty and wonder Freedom of speech will rage through the lightning and the thunder

Heartbreak In Paris
2:00am Saturday Morning and his restlessness reclined on his mind The room was immensely silent but held a forceful amount of chaos His large feet plummeted to the cold floor; he roamed out of his beguiling room * His body was almost bare and every movement echoed through him The empty foil tins from a takeaway he had eaten at 8:00pm casted a noticeable stare across the kitchen like a coin to a magpie The fridge was only a couple strides away now; he prematurely stretched his arm ready to grasp the frigid handle The fridges seal parted and a saintly yellow light radiated in front of him He stared nonplussed into the fridge for about 3.5 seconds Celery Sitting there in the centre of the fridge appearing as tasteless as it would taste Unappetising. The light diminished as the door closed.

The Fridge
Is that the time already? I muttered in my mind Peering at my watch I could have gone on my own It was fine The passenger seat was comfortable The engine was almost silent But loud enough to know the car was speeding The road stretched endlessly But the journey was abruptly short * As I looked around I saw little of interest Not much at all, only a few blades of grass on dirt patch 'I'm sorry' he said I peered at my watch It had stopped completely

Roar of engines, and bright lights, would keep the city ablaze at night Half past 2am after earning was done Her only ally was the sun That had retired much earlier to its bed And said no more, silent, dead. Then came a creature that was not so tame Silent and violent, without consent, the insect would approach the vagrant scent Some may say there was no harm that the creature meant However, matter not a mark is left An itch that rests on her mind Why could the mosquito not be so kind?

Mosquito
I feel it for sure Do you? I’m ******* terrified I think you do In fact I’m positive I can see it in your eyes Take my hand take my soul It’s going to be cool :) Cool Everything’s ******* perfect You’re amazing I see no flaws In fact I don’t see a lot Only you Right now Who needs to bother about the future The moment is real The feeling has vanished But the feelings definitely haven’t vanished They’re more real than ever Vicious I had you What did I expect Nothing is forever Now all I think about is the future This totally isn’t cool I liked smoking with you Now I smoke for a harrowing reason

70 In a 30
I am the one who dares to stay awake Yet still has the ability to dream While the rest adrift and hold no thought I am broken but still vigorous My purpose is not to survive but instead to live I am lost but learning As for those who have found their path edge ever closer Ceasing not seizing I live only to live Whether dark or bright My mind wanders and wonders What and when Why and how Woe, what a journey in which we live A life we grasp only holds evil Our minds are the only terrors of our minds
