Crumbling alone in the dust
Gazing at me is the ones who have lost my trust
To be from ruins standing, they still remain
Until one day when fire or rain
Forever wash them away
Unto the depths of the eternal abyss to the blissful grey
Of sadness and sorrow of yet of them to consume
And monsters awaken, smoke from their nostrils in fume
And allow them to strike down thy enemies of mine
Destroy them all and thine revenge shines
Through my heart and through my soul, and by this I proclaim,
"Long live my closest brothers and sisters, though they maybe same",
"But those who are different for my vision, allow them swept,"
"They will wake up in Tartarus, and with them an eternal sleep,"
"Wish them away! Wish them away! Wish them away!,"
"For no longer does the shadow of dishonesty reign over thine kingdom,"
"But the light of the future, where justice and order prevails and the first citizens come."

When times are rougher than sandpaper and smooth like new cement,
But like all things cement cracks and we smell the most delicious scent,
When we follow  miles and miles and we find nothing out of the quest,
Perhaps in a new time and a new day, we find a new test,
We can find our goal and travel to distant lands and try our very best,
When storms arise and thunder emerges, find shelter and take rest,
For the next day it will be bright and ever shining over the sun's crest,
By which the monsters lurk, watch out, and let their stalking arrest,
We can travel to search for that land, a journey not to jest,
Our family is in the other side of the world, and finally, they set,
The banquet of our arrival, we recount our whole quest, to be told yet,
We have done our job and our duty, and enjoy ourselves we must let,
This is life in the making, a journey in progress, and that our story,
Has only yet to begin.
A little something motivational, to me. Long time since I wrote. I decided to write about life as a journey of sorts, and so here is my interpretation.

Thoughts blinking, thoughts booming
Every second that I think, it seems the moon is looming
Over the horizon it goes to make an entry to its show
And then the next morning where the sun is to glow
Up high in the sky, the farther we travel at the speed of sound
And down when we need to, to the soft, grassy ground
To underground we embark, where twisted roots may be
And sideways where moles poke blindly, oh I wish they could only see
Through skyward we go once again, and dive into the great ocean
Aquatic animals of all kind, whales, dolphins I wish to be shown
They're shy to appear, but never be afraid, I promise you all a safe haven
A pair of mighty jaws appears behind me, oh no, it's the Leviathan!
But a new scent appears, sweet and chocolate-like, the cookies like hunks
A glass of milk next to me, knocking on me as if begging to be drunk
Perhaps a minute or two, I think to myself, food and drink is in order
It appears my thoughts might need two minutes or more
Maybe...I can just rest and just think now after I finish eating...
How should I begin? Maybe... "Thoughts blinking, thoughts booming..."
I never really looked into writing a more positive poem, so I decided the best topic to start with is my thinking process, which I apply to that when imagining poems or brainstorming new story ideas. I hope you enjoy. Try to think and analyze the symbolism found here.

What am I to be when others define who I am?!
Foolish mortals! How dare they! Am I realize this "friendship" is a scam?!
Friendship is nothing more than a torch to be blown by winds of change!
It is utterly meaningless when fools enjoy me for my many rages!
What am I?! Am I to be cast to oblivion?! To depths deeper than hell?!
Let those who abuse me, let no mercy be done! Let God tell!
Allow the strikes of death and plague to be unleashed unto to them!
And ensure their coffins sealed, for they shall be devoured by Nephilim!
Make peace unto me, their misrepresentations decide who live or dies!
Make them pay, their bodies scorched by fire where their bodies lie!
Peace and justice will be made to me, because I shall possess the keys!
Make of them suffering and eternal torment, and destroy their families!
I shall be forever victorious and crush my enemies underneath my feet!
And their puny and insignificant presence, ha! They shall face defeat!
No longer will my "friends" use me once and dispose of me immediately!
I will be ruler of a world where my castle everyone be amazed will see!
The majesty of my wonderful rule! When I die, I shall leave a legacy!
"He is he who destroyed his foes and casted them to the guillotine."
"His past was days when people of his mocked with such keen."
"But he rose from his sorrow and by his sword his enemies fell."
"His blood of vengeance runs through the rivers to the dells."
This will be written that of my tombstone when the time is right.
And when my enemies rise again from the shadows, I shall put my light!
The light of my truth, my justice, and my ways to live right!
Their oppositions crushed thousandfold and my armies unstoppable!
Let my revenge from the past fuel the finale that is incomprehensible!
Meteorites from heaven of flame become redder by my enemies' blood!
Even if they rise the flag of surrender, I refuse! Make them shunned!
And so my kingdom is at peace, when war halts and revenge is done!
Let their be tranquility in my land at last, now let freedom run!
Allow the spirit of freedom to spread across my great land!
And where enemies fall, make my virtues and glory stand!
Where people of the millionfold descend to see and adore me!
And at last, make my revenge and cleanse it. It is now free.
(Sigh) This is actually how I feel when people like to see me just to rage. I kind of have short term anger, so I do get angry relatively quick; I can almost never take jokes. Sometimes I think people just want me to scream is because they like it, and I feel in doing so, they like me as a friend. However, I am deceived, and I hate myself for doing so. So welcome to the other side of me.
