Creep
He inhales,
The ghosts of death,
Little soldiers sent by Hades
To fight this battle,
They enter.
They'll climb through your lungs
Cling to them like leeches
And claw their way,
Inside out.
Eroding you from the inside,
Slashing back and forth,
Warriors.

He exhales,
And the injured leave,
Smoke curling around his trembling
Lips,
His face slack,
His lungs infected.
The soldiers prevailing,
Taking control.
He doesn't notice.
He'll stomp the cigarette on the ground,
**** the remaining soldiers left in that short little stub,
Exhale all the injured soldiers out,
Letting the smoke waft around his lips,
The way he let his soul spill out,
The frigid chilly air whisking it all away.

He's just a carcass now.
Half dead.
He doesn't have long left.
He's running out of time.
Inspired by a smoker I saw.
Please... don't smoke. It killed too many of my relatives. Its terrible for you, inside and out. And ecigarettes and hookah is just as bad... don't smoke. Repost and spread the word.

You'll never see
you'll never know
I don't travel with a team
I fight alone.
You'll give me a name
you'll gossip about
you'll always hear people calling out for someone like
ME
This is based on the point of view of a superhero
Sadly superheros don't exist but in recent times I think the world needs one

I breath the oxygen in the air
I feel the wind hitting my skin
the rain drops on my head
My heart beats to keep me alive
my brain keeps my body running.

I am not different
I am not unique
I am the same as you
I live on this Earth
I was born on this world
I am not different
I am equal to you.

The first time I said I loved you
the first time you said it back
the love in your eyes
and the passion in your soul.
The first time your saw our daughter
her first word
the love in your eyes
and the protection you felt.

You have no idea what I'm talking about
and it breaks my heart each day
because
While my memories remain
yours are gone

I pity that day;
that cold, gloomy day.
In that month of December,
where my heart was in its May.
Blossomed and warm;
you were my spring right away.
I still remember that day...
Like it was just yesterday.

I found myself in you,
that I had even lost in me.
*You are me; even more than I could ever be.

You said you wanted to die,
and so a part of me did.
Two souls. One heart.

Like the ocean; I am both mesmerised
and frightened by you.
more than anything; in the most beautiful
and tragic way.
You are alluring,
and wrench me,
like a ship
awaiting to
sink.
slowly
and deadly.
