A Shiny Little Thing
Ana Davhn Aug 2016
A shiny little thing, so small,
So precious, amidst a pile of stone.
Fluttered its eyes open, beaming
As bright as the sun.
A shiny little thing, lost in the stones,
Dark and gray, they gathered, like
Rain clouds in a howling storm.
A shiny little thing, drowned in absurd.
Her shine dulled, her spirit flickered.
She folded her arms, gathered her light.
Shiny little thing, take no mind, for
A stone never knows what it does.
A shiny little thing, weak and dull,
Move under the stones, you
Will be crushed. Look onto yourself,
Crushed, hurt and sad, yet far more
Brighter that those who ripped your heart.

Confederate
Ana Davhn Aug 2016
You are the smile that lights me up every
second. Each memory, a dusting of happiness.
You are the warmth that seeps into me,
a small whisper of hope in my darkest days.
My eyes swim with each grin, each jape,
That had passed between us. Our days,
bright and shiny, in a sea of haze. I know,
I‘m not the best of friends, I know,
I can be the clam and crab at times.
But you my friend, you are the companion,
One hopes for, the perfect accomplice,
My masked wicked dreamed of.
A tear floats over spilling,
Running down my cheek. My heart,
Squeezes at your image, a mirage .
My heart no longer listens, so do these?
Wayward drops washing my eyes.
You know its crazy, why it cries
At your buck teeth or your color blind
Fashion and pig tails? I’d never know.  
But you knew. You knew it was hopeless,
You knew it ******. And, you stayed,
Whatsoever. You stayed to give us
The best of memories, you stayed to tell me,
I am here. So what if I’d forgotten.
You know, you are there in my thoughts,
Always. A diamond among pebbles,
You shine in my mind, always and ever.

A Ball of Light
Ana Davhn Aug 2016
A light as bright as any, shielding,
Dodging balancing on its feet.
A light, spreading through all,
A touch, a gaze, it took to all.
It glowed with love danced in trust.
A smile stay put on its face while
The soul wandered this holy maze.
It took no care, a life
passed in a hurried glare. It stopped
To look around, to know the life
That was its alone.Little did it know
The path, it stumbled, lost and bled along.
It tried to reach all, a shove, a pull
That was all. All love gone all trust
Dwindled, it looked inside only to find
Nothing to kindle.A light how could it
Be when it sees nothing, just the faint
Echoes of what it could’ve been.
