My sails flap and flutter,
As my ship protests against the wind.
The ocean roars back its response,
While the continents sail out of sight.

Rain pelts against my back,
Thunder strikes my ship.
My ship attempts to fall back,
New sails I equip.

My ship must go on,
Till I reach the faraway lands.
The sun peaks over the horizon,
As the world calms and brightens.

Don't waste your moments,
Don't waste your life,
Don't waste your love,
Don't waste your loyalty,
Don't waste your money,
Don't waste your dreams.
So put your trust in me,
I promise I won't let you down,
*And We'll Be Singing.
Inspired by Love On Me - Galantis

Twilight hours,
Mixture of purple, blue and black.
On dark clouds it towers,
And rains heavily on my back.

United we stand,
Disbanded we fall.
Together we are stronger,
Divided we are weaker.
We're strongest,
When we're together
Max Vale May 2018
Growing together,
United by blood.
Awaiting the weather,
To bless us with a flood.

The vans on the interstate
they go real slow, they go real slow
the vans on the interstate
20 MPH below, 20 MPG below
the limit

I'm too fast for this road,
There's nowhere I can't go.
I'm free I carry no load,
Speed limit? No.

The vannies are nannies
don't ya know, don't ya know
vannies are nannies
really slow, really slow
it really is
no secret

Time goes quickly,
Soon it'll go below.
But life's too quick,
For me to go slow.

I'm not sure they
comprehend, comprehend
really not sure they understand
either GMC, or Chevrolet
whether GMC, or Chevrolet
being the clot
in the road

Embrace the speed while you can,
Before you blink.
It'll disappear,
Before you can think.

Breathe me in like a vapor,
Let me embrace you in my warmth.
Carry me in your pocket for later,
I'll be there to warm you in storms.

On the outside,
I've never fitted in.
It's like I'm alright,
But there's a violin,
Playing in the background.
Why doesn't my voice,
Make a sound?
Why is everyone,
Never around?

Things change and,
Relationships break and fall apart.
But that doesn't mean,
That I still don't want your heart.

The sun shines on happy days,
The rainbow appears on lucky days.
The rain weeps on sad days,
The wind blows on stormy days.
No matter the weather,
Being so clever.
It always surprises me.

Seashell shores,
Ocean blue waves.
Dancing fires,
Lustful airwaves.

We go through the woods,
We go through the river.
We go down the deepest lake,
Till we're lost and gone away.

We know we cant stay up,
The only way we can go is down.
Once your fears have gone away,
And you're sitting by the sundown.

I don't care what people say,
Just survive another day.
And then once you do,
**We Can Go Drowning Together
No one is going down alone. If you're going down i'm coming with you. At the end of the day guess I'll see you all in hell. I don't care at least we're together.

What is poetry?
Some people may ask.
Is it just basic literacy?
Or is it an art?

And I say:

Poems are places where we express our feelings,
And turn our emotions into words.
As we make those words appealing,
We create a different world.
I don't think anyone's wrote a poem about poems so yeah here goes.

if it all goes south,
like the weather.
when it just hurts now,
like whatever.
if it doesn't work out,
for the better.
if it all goes wrong,
let's go to heaven.

because it just ain't right,
without you.
Max Vale Jul 2020
I just want to fade,
And roll back time.
Back to the days,
When you were mine.

She told me she loved me,
Loved her like a princess from Disney.
Still wondering why she tricked me,
Why the **** did she leave me?

When world leaders go to war,
Don't they know what they've done?
Why do they hate each other so much?
Do we have to fight?
Do we have to ****?
Do we have to have to ruin families,
By killing the ones they love?
Why cant we do good deeds?
Why do they make us fight?
Nothing is a "must", stand up for what is right.
We don't have go to war

Why you gotta be so beautiful?
There's a sparkle in your eye.
Like a diamond in the sky,
You make me feel so alive.

God did not give us wings,
So we could build our own.
He did not give us many things,
As he wanted us to discover alone.

My wings I have built,
Are a blessing.
From the guy up there's,
eternal loving.

So I wear my wings with pride,
I soar over the skies.
I skim over the tide,
And embrace the ocean's cry.

The Sun comes up,
I feel his radiance.
The clouds float by,
As I dance.

When the rain comes,
And the oceans turns.
The flood decides to run,
And the hurricane burns.

The snowstorms hit,
The cold bites harsh.
The terrain submits,
To the frost that always leave last.

Surviving hot coals,
Perish under the onslaught.
From when the snow falls,
No life is untouched by the assault.

Upon this white hot snow,
The terrain buried under a blanket.
Across these fields we go,
of this unrecognizable planet.

Alas my hands are freezing,
The cold has infected the air.
No warmth is displeasing,
Oh look winter's here.
Max Vale Mar 2019
It's a path we walk,
Whenever we feel alone.
When we don't want to talk,
But just want to go home.

When it rains,
It rains on me.
The wind pains,
It hurts to be me.

I hate the cold,
Yet it loves me.
It always loves to hold,
Tight, surrounding me.

I wish I was better,
That I didn't have to be me.
My life's so bitter,
I wish that I was free.
Its a cold world out there

Life is always rewarding,
The rewards just take time.
You can accomplish anything,
If you have a go and try.

So no matter the times I slip,
No matter the times I fall.
Life is always worth the trip,
Climbing over the wall.

You can throw me to the wolves,
You can throw me off the track.
But in time I will return,
And I'll be leading the pack.
There is an old saying "Throw me to the wolves and I will return leading the pack"

Life is about walking,
Not always in a straight line.
But always pushing,
The limits of your time.

Most people run,
From the wolves.
Most people hide,
From the toughs.

However life give us an option,
To take or challenge this alone.
Thanks to other's collaboration,
May we triumph over this cyclone.

No matter the winded paths,
No matter the unforgiving hearts.
May the path give birth,
To those long forgotten laughs.

So let's reach out to those in need,
And warm those hearts of stone.
Whatever this life heeds,
Remember you are never alone.
Max Vale Oct 2017
Everybody gets lost sometimes,
Its part of life.
Everybody gets hurt sometimes,
No one can run or hide.

From those troubles,
problems and obstacles.
You have to face them on your own,
Don't be afraid of what you don't know.

And if you're ever afraid,
scared or terrified.
Come back another day,
The boat's always ready for a ride.

You were made weak,
Its OK to cry and run away.
Just make sure you learn,
And return again some day.

The Ocean is vast,
The Forest is never-ending,
The Moon is far,
And the path is always winding.

However the view from the mountain,
Will broaden your horizons.
At the end of your journey,
*You Can Go Further
I learn **** from life, Thanks life i guess

You don't need me
No you really don't.
You'll be fine on your own,
So its fine, let me go.

So I'll stay young,
I guess I'll be free.
Sitting around drunk whilst,
People are getting their college degrees.

So I'll stay young,
Everybody's finding love.
They've all got homes,
While I'm still sleeping rough.

So I'll stay young,
The years they roll on by.
Everyone has kids,
And a nine to five.

So I'll stay young,
Everybody's getting old.
Weighted blankets,
So they don't get cold.

So I'm still young,
Never got the chance to live.
Why did I choose this,
When I had so much to give?
Growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional
