Dominating.
Battle royal!

In Palestine where little
Children are sad every day
And there tears of there
Parents stain the land
Blood and tears and heartache
A d the screaming and crying echos
Around the world and the media
Tells lies about Palestine
And its history repeating
Its over and over again like world war two
Violence hate and ****** never ending

And the olive trees are set on fire
And the children can't even
Play it's just war today and
Their innocence at such a cost
Their futures in uncertainty unfurled

Palestinians crying at night and deep
In my heart I feel your pain and
For peace and justice near and far so
Lets end the darkness and hate and
Lord Jesus Christ I pray for the suffering

Though the pain runs deep and wide
In Palestine love and strength abide.
Peace And Love ❤️ 😍 💖

The ocean is vast
and
the shallows deep
bounded
by
predators
in the devil's keep

Mistake

Is it a mistake to confess what I feel,
When I already know the outcome is sealed?
All I long for is to hold you near,
Through the night’s embrace and dawn so clear.

Yet pain and sorrow, anger too,
Grip my heart when I think of you.
For in my dreams alone we stay,
Together, where love won’t fade away.
This poem was for my friend since he can't approach the girl that he likes

Feast or Famine

Poetry has a way of hiding
Itself in a dried up riverbed.
Inspiration of nothingness.
Words at tongue’s tip,
Can’t quite grasp…
And then all of a sudden,
Words flow like the mighty Amazon
During the wettest season,
Tumbling over each other
In their rush to be writ upon the page.
Feast or famine,
All or nothing.

wherever I go. They're high
as a mountain covered in
snow. They're deep as a valley
and swim around my head. They're

under my covers and rotate my
bed. They squeeze me tight like
a Charley horse, pushing me back
with all their g-force. I bump into them

stone cold sober, raking them up
like leaves in October. They're thick as
a French accent. And hasn't been one
I can circumvent!

Crescent moon, a scythe,
cutting through the darkest nights.
I exhale. Relief.

I want to hold your hand in silence.
Name ethereal suns that exist in the distance.
I wish I could bleed into your existence.
Quietly stay stowed away in your ethereal presence,
I would gladly marry into your darkness.
While everyone else is looking for your weakness
I will always read you as flawless.
As you try to hide the cracks beneath your armor.
Maybe they dream of vivid garden parties held in green meadows.
But I will gladly revolve around and under your colorful shadow.

boundaries

finger-painting walls,
soft whispers guard fragile light,
hope flickers within.

brushstrokes of my trust,
boundaries bloom like wild fields,
strength begins to grow.

abstract shadows fade,
in colors, I find my voice,
the self stands aglow.
