Some leave finger prints
You leave dusted angels
Some leave footprints
You leave your name carved on everyone's lips
Some keep souvenirs
You keep words
Some keep memories
You keep hearts
Some build houses
You dreams
And while some paint pictures
You paint worlds
Solar systems
Entire galaxy's
You save people's hearts when they succumb to nightmares
But you always have to go out
Just to test the night air
Everytime you do it gets a little more bitter
Your sweet aroma is too much
Too good to be true
At least that would explain why people always seem to hate you
Another explanation I've come to find
Too often you hide your own heart from our eyes
No one seems to know what happens in your mind
As far as I'm concerned
It just proves you're one of a kind
Keep leaving angels
Keep leaving your name
Hearts and memories
Worlds and dreams
Keep leaving the thought of you
In minds of unrest
Peace will follow surely
The one everyone can trust

Strong man
Army man
You wished for that to one day be your chance
You've given up on it now
And truthfully I was slightly relieved
At least you wouldn't die fighting with no reasoning
It didn't last long I hated it but I see
Everyone must have a dream
Go to your war my dear
Your fighting blood and tears
Though when you come back home
In pieces or as a whole
In success or in vain
Away we'll wipe your pain
Hold you close and protect you from foes
Until our crossed paths end
I must say goodbye
I'll see you in the next life my dearest friend

I trusted you to stay
But while I was away
You crossed my back and boarded that distant plane
Lilly frost Jul 2016
Just an idea you said
Calm down its just a number
But it's a resume now and you wish to be a fighter

Phony crosses
Phony faith
Around my neck as a favor
I have sworn to keep it safe
No I'm not religious
No I'm not Christian
For you my friend you must know
I'll keep it with me
Even if turned to stone
When you come home seek me out
For you I will have your hold your last hope
Your token of luck
It may seem silly to those around
That a cross on a chain of silver would indeed be profound
But it was in the hands of those who you loved
The dying ones passing on their unused days of good luck

Well now
What do we have here
What have we done
When it's cold we love the sun
When winter's over we'll go wishing for another one
Lilly frost Apr 2016
Sparkles and love
Dreams come true
That sounds less like me
More like you

Where's the dragons
The war
The grime and gore

What fun is there without blood lust
What excitement without death and deciet
Shadowed intent
Shattered goal

What fun is it without kings or queens that must be overthrown
Deciding who's head to cut off as they sit alone

The protagonist a prodigy
Strong and young
Filled with burning rage for what cannot be undone

The villain cruel
Living in darkness
In a world lacking color

What fun is it to always have peace and kindness rule the land
To always have the hero win
Save the day let's go and play
Clearly now evil shan't threaten again

Ocassionally the antagonist must win
Create seas of blood
Darken the skies with flocks of crows
Come to feast on the rotten corpses of their enemies

Ocassionally you must let happy endings die
To let excitement live
