Love is

The sun shining on you
As you chase a friend
Or when the sky is blue
And on them you can still depend

Or when you see a poor man on the street
And you offer them some aid
And from then on
Their smile is a more common trait

Or perhaps when you see
Your crush pass by
And you heart flutters a bit
Their voice a lullaby

Maybe even when your on the edge
And you go ahead and weep
But someone grabs you off that ledge
To save you from your leap

Love is many things
But one thing stays the same
Love gives us wings
And once gained
They never go away.

The feeling of anger
Hot, boiling anger
A beast
That crawls behind me
It's gaze burning
Hunching over me
And at the last moment
    With a glint in it's eye
         ...
     It claws me in my back
     Draining my energy
     Stabbing my soul
     And like a flash of lightning
     It runs away from me
     Like the tide of the ocean
     It recedes into a dark corner
     The only thing it leaves behind is
     A tired being

I was on
My stable ship
In the ocean blue
Or so it seemed
One minute I was up
             The next
                   I fell through the ship like a rock
                               On wet paper
It wasn't as stable as I thought
      I kept going
                  down
                       down
                         down
                 Into the dark abyss
                          I went
                         It kept getting harder
                            To see the light
                        And when I swam up to breathe,
                      I just got pulled down even farther
                                   down
                                       down
                                          down
             ­                               into the abyss







                                                    ­                     only if a hand
                                                            ­         would reach out
              

                                                               ­               and save me
