Sin
Rumbling tumbling the white horses come
Galloping along towards the shore
Thunderous hooves crashing down
Manes lashing in the wind

Onwards they stride to the edge of the land
Eyes wide nostrils flared
Each stallion stronger than the last
Reaching the end is their only goal

No man can tame them but just stand and stare
As the horses of the ocean
Chase the elusive mare

Onto the land they crash
Thunder in the air
Skies darken all around
Where it all ends there

Until the next foray
Of ocean horses come
Again they race to the end
Slowly fading one by one

Night
Is the time of poets
Of writers
Of painters
Of thinkers
Of people
Who make worlds
In their heads.

Night
Is when I sit and scribble
And flick
And splash
And imagine
And create
A universe
In my bed.

Night
Is when people love
And laugh
And cry
And scream
And become
Real and tangible
In my mind.

Night
Is when worlds quake
War breaks out
People revolt
Empires fall
Nations rise
From the ashes
In my pen.

Night
Is when worlds form
War ends
People accept
Empires are healthy
Nations are strong
Because I love the people
In my head.

War
Run
Into the sun
It will be fun
Don't drop the gun
You could be the one
To win
Swords and Roses Nov 2015
children laugh and play
the earth smiles at them softly
adults laze around
earth turns its face to the sun
summer dances slow and warm

Sin
Oh words do not forsake me
               For an empty page then I'll be
And dreams will just be grey
              My life and heart need you to stay
I write this as one fear I have is not being able to write anything and just stare into emptiness. That's kinda frightening to me. Although I know the words will find me when the time is right.

M
It hurts to not fit in,
even if everything else feels alright
because part of me thinks,
"If only I were a little bit cooler, or
hung out with the popular crowd,
if only I wasn't so loud-
then, maybe, things would be different."
I know that's not the truth. It isn't.
(that doesn't mean it doesn't hurt)
(I just think my voice should be allowed)
(Why do some people look at me like I'm dirt?)
(Is it that hard for you to listen and for me to be heard?)
