Celestial beings stare down at us every night,
Some may say that they are nocturnal:
The stars.

As holy and magic as they are,
They have a lot of stress to hold,
Telling the future,
Controlling relationships,
Making us who we are.

So much responsibility,
For a tiny ray of light,
Visible only with clear skies.

Bodies of magic form together,
Stars are never alone,
Because they form a bond,
To form a story.

And sometimes they won't form the correct way,
Making it hard for a cancer one day,
But, hey, maybe that means it's an Aquarius' luck day.
Today my brother might find a soulmate,
And I might find a whole in my bank account.
This month will be good,
But watch out,
Hardships may be coming soon.

I wonder what the stars were thinking,
That chilly tenth month,
When a libra and a taurus came together.
Maybe I'll go back to check my horoscope.

I like to paint,
Now, let's be clear,
That does not mean I'm good at it,
It means I like it,
I like to paint.

Lines across a page,
Colors colliding together,
Forming something new,
And it's not perfect,
That's the point.

Because, when you paint,
It should be a perfect world,
No mistakes,
It's more comfortable to look at,
To be with,
But why create a farce?

People deserve to know the truth,
And sometimes the truth is crooked lines,
Blotted colors,
Irregular shapes,
That's the way it goes.

Life is all these cringes,
All the tears that make paint into water colors,
All of the confusion,
Life is imperfect.

I like to paint,
And I suppose I am not too great
At making a perfect world,
But I'm **** good at making a real one.

Please do not cry,
Sweet prince,
Sweet babe.
I'll stay with you tonight,
'Till there's light in your sky

I'm bad with second chances,
I'll be the first to admit,
But I think it may be fit
To forgive someone for their mistaken romances.

We are all children after all
At least in the heart,
So perhaps I shouldn't let this friendship fall,
The relationship might not be all whole, but at least part.

So, even though I may be confused,
As to how this mistake could have been performed,
This should not be used,
As means to wish this friendship was never formed.

Please earn back my trust,
And make my past anger unjust.

Anger is bubbling up through my veins.
How could you do this to a friend?
You careless,
Unthoughtful person.
You were trusted,
You had one goal,
To be a good person,
To be a good friend.
And I'm so angry and disappointed.

How did you sleep that night,
When you stole a kiss,
From the girl he desired.
How did you face him the next day,
Like nothing even happened.
Do you even give a ****,
About what you have done?

I can't look at you,
I can't speak to you,
I can't even think of you,
It would be bad for my health.
Forgive Her oh gods, she knows not what she does,
Forgive her Aphrodite, she knows not who she shuns,

She knows not how Her glint steals the eye of e'ry man,
And ensnares the heart of all touched by Her hand,
She knows not the deep red your cheeks are brought to,
When She wakes e're morning to be greeted by morning dew,
She knows not the waves of jealously,
Felt by women for their men, and by the men of me,
And warrants the jealous stare of you, a deity,

So while on Her behalf I offer you an apology,
I still do acknowledge Her greater beauty.

Rain drips down my face,
I feel the cold drops,
Roll over my cheeks,
Each drop full of sorrow.

The sky is mourning,
Looking down on a people,
Destined for doom.

One drop for women,
Back to being inferior,
Because what is below the belt,
Means more than what is in the skull,
I guess no one looks at the interior,
All a woman is,
Is her body, right?
There to touch and grab,
And not put up a fight.

****** orientation should not be a reason to be wary,
But rights will get taken away,
Feelings zapped,
Prayed away,
People can't accept love,
And it's scary.

People of the minority,
Are scared to death.
People threatening their lives,
Having to watch their back,
Every
Single
Day.

Young children,
Looking up to a person,
Who tell them that hatred is okay.
What has the world come to.

I'm scared,
The world is crying for us,
Hopefully we are cleansed.
