the world is burning my mind is crying my heart is yearning and flowers dying screaming fills my broken mind and hatred kills leaves lovers blind chaos swallows heart and soul broken parts of once a whole torn apart seams undone chaos is here it's time to run enveloped by her ugly gape no point to flee there's no escape.

chaos
the moon, she blossoms in the dark of night, where tranquil sands, her glowing bands, she lays the waves caress her bodice, hold her tight, as gulls and wishes rest upon the bay. but who will hold the sea, who cradles moon? he longs each day to gaze deep in her eyes her light to glow eternal, fading soon, exhausted, on the dunes of sand he lies his love, vanquished by the dawn, heart torn the moon will drift away, their love will test, each day his heart will die, her loss is mourned, till dusk, she comes around, her silver crest, his tears fill galaxies, till dusk he grieves his waves hold strong, her gentle light he weaves

moon sonnet
She sings, her voice pained with tears which she cannot cry For she is surrounded by death, pain, destruction, despair. She sings like a broken angel, Who fell from heaven, And broke her wings. But her sweet, light-hearted song makes the audience believe that she is fine, happy, when she is broken like a watch which cannot tick. But when she sings, and nobody can see, the pain that laces her voice, And here she sings, so sweet and light, But nobody can see the tears she cannot cry.

Song of the Sparrow
I am afloat in an ocean of tears As the salt softly touches my skin And the fish who swim below me Do not know in which waters they swim. The waves crash down onto the shore Letting tears trickle into the sand And the sadness starts pulling me under And I scream as I reach for your hand I am gasping for air in this ocean But with each breath, air escapes And the salt of the tears blind my eyes And the watery world loses shape. My lungs are crying for air, And my heart is crying from pain, And my body is crying from pressure, I see ripples as it's started to rain. But you watch for a boat as I drown And you watch my last breath as it leaves My body goes limp, but I cannot die, For my heart has not yet been relieved.

blood of a bluebird
climbing up my clothes are ripped the boom of thunder but still the rain couldn't stop the flames the clouds are aflame the sky is bleeding the tree cracks the branch has snapped my arms release i cannot scream for nobody would hear the sound of a silent fire

silent fire
When the word was made, There was nothing. One thing was made, then another. The had many sisters and brothers. Over time, they grew, Into me and you. We survived off the water, from which we were born, Until the 7 deadly storms. They killed the ones who didn't survive, and left the survivors still alive. Now we are here, me, and you Turning the world back to nothing.

Nothing There
scared to be seen in life afraid to show my light always taught to hide your tears never show any..... maybe the word is life. they would all tease my perfection but when i had become incomplete, they just laughed at..... probably me. i have problems, now i show them. showing to the public, the strangers..... and outcasts like me. my only escape from reality is poetry and there, i will not be the person to be laughing at. i survive day and night remembering the people who tease me, having pity on their souls because they feed off the the others..... well, this time i cant find a word. this is not a perfect poem. and people who are mean to a creature of such ability, like us are showing only a reflection of themselves and how small they really are. you are nobody to be less than what you were created to be. be unique, no be, no just.... um...... i need a word?
