Sin Jan 2016
I played in the moonlight
Last night
My shadow so tall and dark
Enough to stop the heart
Of the bravest of the brave

You see the moonlight
Hides my true self
I can reach out and steal away
Before the crack of day
Does come

Laughing and singing under her glow
The silver moonlight
Is why my heart I'll show
And tears how they run like crystal drops
For my love of her I cannot stop

And so she hides me in her glow
Like I say my shadow knows
How to dance and feel so free
Under that glowing moon
For me

Emerald eye's watching the war
They came and destroyed
What the hell for
I'm only a child with no where to go
Free this land and fight no more

My father was strong my mother of pure heart
They didn't ask for the fighting to start
I hide under the bed when the soldiers came
Kicking in doors and screaming the name of hatred and bile

Tears flow from my emerald eye's
Fear grips this child's heart
In Gaelic I prey when will it stop
Why did they have to start

Soon it will be over and the dying will rot
Returned to the earth no sacred plot
Boots that march over souls that weep
I prey to my god my soul he shall keep

By turning a pebble over, isn't that changing the world around.

And of what of love, he asked
As he slid his fingers through my hair..
There was a special strength in his grip
And a certain passion in his stare..
But my body trembled and my heart raced
At the thought of loving him..
For if I allow myself to crumble to pieces here and now,
I may never recover again.
I imagine a couple, laying on a blanket in a peaceful scenery, dated back to the Renaissance era.

The shoes I bought
Are too big for me
But I love them
I love them dearly

I strapped them up tight
I redid the laces
Put on layers of socks
Crammed ***** of tissue to
fill the empty spaces

I submerged them in water
In a pail, to the bottom they'd sink
I left them in the sun
In the hopes that they'd shrink

I just wish that they'd peer through their eyelets
And see me for all I've done
I will not cease to fill the voids
And fulfil the love I've begun

The shoes I bought
They remain too big for me
But I still love them
I love them dearly
