I have nothing to say.
I am lost for words, lost for thoughts,
It seems the sun has shined its last ray.

Literature brings me a power,
I forever fail to describe.
As I push my glasses up my nose,
It's my own voice I inscribe.

I saw the end of daylight,
The shadow of the sun.
I saw the dark was coming,
I knew I had to run.
Dark asked me where I was headed,
I said I was to hide from him.
Dark was coming farther near,
Sun was sitting at her rim.
Moon was close now I could feel it,
Dark just didn’t understand.
I ran faster, never slow,
Dark soon would take his land.
I finally asked Dark,
Why he chose ever to chase me.
His answer was a secret,
A secret it will always be.

Drop by drop,
Rain by rain,
Steady rhythm,
Beating chain.
Raining hard,
Raining soft.
Dripping slowly,
Up aloft.
Silent drop,
Noisy thud.
Getting deeper,
Causing flood.
Rain is frequent,
All through you.
Can be close,
Or distant, too.

Open the door,
Kiss the sadness goodbye,
Find a new window,
Let your soul fly.
Get out of your box,
Fun’s never been fame,
Stretch out to the world,
Create your own name.
Opportunities out there,
So let yourself soar,
There’s a whole world just out there,
Exit now, and explore.

I walk into war so brave,
Found my confidence,
My guide.
For when you walk in the room so worried,
When you leave you find your pride.
Head held higher than an eagle,
Yet lower than a rock.
When you feel yourself so timid,
Time’s running around the clock.
Took a long, good look at myself,
Found measures beyond length,
Looked even deeper into myself,
Found a large amount of strength.

His hand clamped around her wrist,
Held firm beneath the tree.
He inhaled the fresh and warm air,
Smelled the lilac and the sea.
She glanced at him so slyly,
Warm lips curled into a grin.
If only she could tell him,
If only she could win.
When he found her in the corner
She warned him of her sin.
He pulled her from the ground then,
Her once full frame now so thin.
She told him he must leave now,
She pushed, a gentle shove.
His red lips met her chapped ones,
"I'll never leave, my only love."
But just then, two weeks later,
He placed a lily on her grave.
A tear rolled down his dry cheek,
The only one he couldn't save.
Still he sits, beneath the tree now,
Smells the lilacs and the sea.
She's just a whisper in the wind now,
"But the only whisper that's for me."

She smiled and she grinned.
So happy, so free.
Unbothered by the worries,
Not one could plainly see.
But far beneath the smiles,
She screamed, a soundless cry.
She wept in deafening silence,
Underneath the lie.
He smiled, he laughed.
Such a friendly young man.
Bared one daughter, but no sons.
He walked every day, never ran.
But far beneath his chuckles,
Were rules set to comply.
With the daughter that he’d beaten,
Underneath the lie.
The evening of the funeral,
She’d mourned for their third part.
The mother she’d held dearly,
Heart spiked over the feeble chart.
Family gathered around him,
Said they’re sorry for his loss.
Wife and daughter gone,
He prayed under the wooden cross.
But far beneath his sorrow,
His heinous grin reached the sky.
For he cried tears of satisfaction,
Underneath the lie.

Every time I look up,
The clouds will block my sight.
Every time I raise my arms,
Shackles hold me tight.
They keep me to the ground,
With a fierce and gruesome might.
And as I glance at my surroundings,
I know this isn’t right.
They say that hope will help you,
Save you from drowning in the sea.
But still the arms will wrap me up,
Laugh as they listen to my plea.
I’ll have freedom in my palm,
Then trip and drop the key.
And as I try to escape myself,
I know no one’s saving me.
As I sit at the desk I’m writing,
With the blood from my own veins.
My hands will remain shackled,
Still weighed down by the chains.
But I’m fighting, and I’m trying,
Whistles blowing from the trains.
I’m not screaming, I’m not crying,
Run away from all the pains.
While sitting in the corner,
Lifting up my aching hand,
I think about the people,
Standing outside, as they planned.
This is my new place now,
Suppose this my home land,
I can still see liberty,
But I’m sinking in the sand,
Stuck inside my own mind,
They’ll never understand.

While crying in the moonlight,
The tears of icy cold.
Snow fallen lies surround me,
Trading rice for dirtied gold.
They know I have a weakness,
Achilles’ tendons found.
Fighting in my own Antietam,
Ignore the bloodied ground.
As one things ends another comes,
Start as I end another shift.
Feel so small in your surroundings,
Mammoths in the continental drift.
Buried in the secrets,
Not everybody knows.
Climbing Mount Everest in the winter,
Snow shoots back just as it goes.
Grasping hands I always miss,
Warming fingers turning blue.
True, I could not help me,
But I won’t make the same mistake with you.
