Blind Aesthetic
If happiness is key
Then what of the door?
A room with no exit
Just walls and a floor

It unlocks many things
Let life give you wings


If life is a blessing
Then why do I hurt?
A life not worth living
It’s but an insult

Cherish all that you feel
With time all will heal


You question your own life
Ignore the given
Play the fool and the child
Even the deaf listen


If time is a constant
Then why’d nights stand still?
Air hangs without motion
Breathe breaths that don’t fill

You’ll find peace in the dark
Listen to your heart


If hearts do have rhythm
Then why’s there no beat?
With eyes frozen open
I am dead asleep

*You questioned your own life
Ignored the given
Played the fool and the child
Even the deaf listen

Waiting for the day that all this pain will go away
Drifting through the nights
As the moonlight keeps my demons at bay
I wear bags under my eyes
Never knowing where I’m going to go
Always following the stars
Keeping an eye out
For where the greener grass will grow
There will never be a fork in my path
Because my path isn’t clear to me
I may not know where I’m going
But I know where I’m going to be
I’ve seen myself atop of mountains
Made of bodies and of gold
I’ve seen myself blinded but it’s up to me
To see what the truth will hold
It doesn’t matter how I live my life
Be it by pen or by the gun
All that matters is that I live a story worth telling
By the time my life is done
Whether it’s through stories
Told by memory or those written in print
My legacy will live on forever
It will be infinite.

Sleepless nights play a game of tag with me
Will they ever catch me?
I race ahead, with success and ambitions engraved into my mind and spirit
Newfound strength pulses through my veins, becoming my new lifeblood
I will not stop
Not until I am fulfilled
Never
My inspiration for this was the feeling I get during show week for our school plays.

Zedd
Coursing through my veins
Scary beyond compare
Sudden sheer drops
Killing you slowly

Yet...

Feeling more alive than ever before
Smiling as you head to your possible death
Rising from the fall
From sheer terror
To pleasure

theres nothing quite like romance to prove your love is true

give a bunch of flowers a glass of wine or two

have a lovely meal with candles all a glow

just a little romance is all you have to show.



have a little cuddle and a loving kiss

for a perfect evening filled with loving bliss

just a little romance is all you have to do

followed by the words darling i love you.

there was a little rat he came from germany
a proper fighter pilot  one day he would be
like the  famous pilot from the years gone bye
the one they called red baron the ruler of the sky.

in a plane of red flying through the cloud
a fighter pilots dream this would make him proud
firing his guns as he went flying by
watching as his enemy fell down from the sky.

heading back to base landing on the ground
then fall fast asleep tucked up safe and sound
