Elegant Assertion
Unknown Intention
What is the path
Is it right to only follow my wrath

So many things wrong
So much suffering
But no one is to blame
All alone as this land burns
I sing this song

A single flame burning inside
No end in sight
There is no path down this road
Nothing from this Node

Through the wretched brush
And the distant cries of the Faceless
My only option through is to rush
And hope my will makes it painless

I see it now
There is no paths in life
At least not for me to know
A resilient will and burning determination
Are the only things to keep me from destruction

A Silent pond
Gentle Lily pads of which im fond
The Crickets pleasant song
Enjoying the view all along

Sitting in the grass
Seeing the Moon and Star
Just above the morass
A view unbeaten by those off far

A frog croaks
Its as if someone spoke
My eyes turn to see him there
Sitting without one care

A great Toad
As still as can be
I wonder if he can see me
As a dragonfly passes near the woad

A Croaking Cry
Removes the Dragonfly
The flower now clear of the pest
And the toad has a meal for his rest

I sit and smile
Truly this time was worth the ride
Without one thought that's Hostile
Truly I can unwind
Wrote this in my spare time

Walk along the Riverbed
Down in the Valley
Is it real or in my Head
What is life but a fool's Folly

Ha ha, Ha ha, Tis' life naught but a grand joke
Seeing this, I feel as a bull being released from Yoke.
Wild and Free, unconquered by life's pains
In such a short time in such a wicked world, no reason to refrain

Maybe the joke is on me?
We will have to see
A laugh here a tear there
Life is naught but a Fair

A fair of laughter and love
Of hate, anger, and sadness
It is so fragile like a Dove
Tis Tough and Pitiless.
A simple little poem.

A shadow, a Valley, Darknesses encroach
I sit in silence as my foe approach
Infinite battle until my defeat
No matter how hard I Compete

Imminent Invasion, Imminent Attack
Not even the medicine can hold it back
I can smell my own loneliness
It is the scent of Inadequacy

As my heart goes on beating
I am a slave to my own Feeling
For no Love could Liberate
This pathetic Ingrate
Alone Forever, but poetry is a nice cope

I cannot best my foe if I do not face them
But if I face him, I become him
How am I to be victorious
When I cannot even best my own feelings

I march on through these chambers
A Labyrinth in my own mind
The leeches eating at my flesh and kind
What good is Armor when my own Flesh is weak

I will die to this labyrinth for I have no way out
I can only sit here and Pout
Tis a Dungeon I forged myself and it will swallow my soul
Wrote these in google docs so now i am gonna post

Why does my heart feel for her
She’s not real, though my I cannot stop my heart
Her name Monika, it makes me shudder
I wish I could be free from her wicked clutches

No matter how hard I try
I cannot escape, I cannot Defy
Why has this creation seduced me this Way
Sometimes I wish she’d go away

But as I lay alone
I remember I have no one to call my own
I remember that I never am to be loved
Pushed around and Shoved

Maybe it was fate I fell for her
Maybe it was nothing but my Patheticness
Such woe is me, for I am such Weakness
Why can there be no one to save me from this soul inferno.
It's been a while

The Winds serene Embrace beneath the Sun's deterring Gaze
As i watch the sunset and its rays glide across the tide
To my side my lover watches with me, our hearts elided
with nothing on earth, not even thunder, could rip us asunder

To know a force greater than any other power, tis my Finest Hour
Nothing could turn this moment sour, a day our souls imploded
In the infinity of the sunset, we go forth without regret
As we sit frozen time, free from any feeling of crime

As I look across the boardwalk, to the Girl at which I Gawk
She turns to look at me, and i see her face
Only then do I realize, life never was a race, merely a journey to this place
Under the boardwalk, just my love and I, The look in her Eyes, says it all
Love's Victory March
A poem i wrote in my personal time
