A lady shall not cry, Sansa believe,
For tears are badges of the weak.
A lady shall tell tales about her joyful place.
A lady shall sing songs about gallant knights who saved the land.
A lady shall let her betrothed kiss her, touch her when he likes to.
A lady shall not curse,
A lady shall not,
A lady shall.
A lady shall throw Sansa into the dark, eerie dungeon, I'm afraid.
Fall down, Your Grace, into the remains of your daydreams.
The world is not an excerpt from your songs and stories;
It can't always give you new flowers when the old ones go dying.
People **** people. Who are we to rule and tell them not to?
You think your House's honor will save you, but it won't.
See, where did Father's honor take him?
To the grave, to the grave, I sing.

I can't be a lady forever.
I can't always smile and tell the world everything's fine.
I can be a knight, I can be a king, I can be a child,
I can be all of them at once.
I can and will say no when I want to,
I am uncontrollable,
I am wild,
I am brilliant,
and I am not
and will not be
anything everyone commands me to be.

Red
Is Passion
Red
Is Love.
Red Is Intense Seduction And **** Lingerie.
Red Are The Beautiful Drapes Your Mother Picked Out For Her New Living Room.

Red
Red Was My Father's Blood Evacuating His Skull
Four Gunshots
BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!
In The Wall And Then Him.
Gunpowder Sharing Space With Him On The Floor Where He Lied.
Quietly.
Red Were His Eyes When He Pulled The Trigger.
Red Was The Splatter Of His Brains On The Pure White Walls.
Red,
Was His Heart.
Big But Broken.
Still.
No Beating.
Picked up a red pen and this is what came out of it.
RIP Daddy.
Never really got to know who you were and it still makes me sad.

I want to fight till the end
Till I'm destroyed
My hopes would die
When the words and poetry wither
away from my books
Like the tree loses it's leaves ....
Here's where my mind and my heart  argue miserably ...

Why can't I forget her? Why does she consume me?

Today, poetry is in my bones--
words reverberating against flesh,
holding up my body
through ribcage and skull.
I am a skeleton of sonnets.
If you were to cut me open,
verse would flow out:
I stain pages with ink-splot blood.

You are just a vague piece of memory perhaps,
Swirling around my mind like a heap of smoke.

This ordinary smoke seems to be so alluring, that
It summons my mind to a place where your presence can always be felt.

I know there is no such place though.
Its just another strange calling, which every heart yearns for....

I know there is no You and
There is no Us...
Perhaps there is only this smoke...
Giving me company in my solitude.

I believe
sometimes...
when the sun rises
it carries along with it
the darkness
from the night
it once was
and swallows
the bright horizon whole
with it's looming
black clouds
equal of mystery
and of torment
and I believe
that a gray moon
in the morning sky
turns the tides
chaos
disarray
silent slumbers
suddenly unfold
into nightmares
that don't end
when awoken
and I believe
day
will never be
the same for me again
the rising sun
used to be
Hope
for new life
until
every morning
began to carry with it
the hollowness
of a lonely
night sky

— The End —
