"There's a power in music!"
Right on,
We all know,
The power of song.
Just got back from all county chorus
Blank canvas,
A bucket of paint,
I took that bucket,
And I chucked it.
Green blues until,
I had a landscape of Nantucket.
I threw the paint,
And just said '---- --'
I haven't painted in a while but it's fun
My mind is an enemy of mine,
Filling my head with worrisome thoughts.
'Are you alright?'
hm
I guess I'm not,
It feels a little normal by now,
Where'd my trust go?
I'm paranoid lately
If I lived in the Song dynasty,
I could be a leader in government,
All their leaders had to be able to write poetry.
I love history
I stood my pen up on its point
I struck it with a hammer
I watched in slow time as the ink flew
I saw it splatter across the page
I was drenched in it the blood of this pen
I murdered art
I can't say i enjoyed cleaning up the scene
It made a beautiful picture
I Love You

Raw words

That hit like a bullet in the chest

I feel it every time we kiss

I love you too
I'm so lucky to have her
Why are we different?
Because you are a brittle block of rotting wood,
And I am an immortal diamond within obsidian sand.
When angered, you will raise your hand,
But don't you dare raise it to me,
For I will stand like statue, your blow caught in my palm.
Tis true
If I were to read these,
To my chorus teacher,
She would beg for more emotion,
In my pronouncing of every line.
If I were to read this to my math teacher,
He would find in it no sense,
Art is a subjective understanding.
Art makes sense to some and not others.
How would you now,
If you're favorite line in a poem,
Was nothing but a tiepo,
Your favorite writer forgo to catch,
Maybe I'm a typo to,
Just a random squigigle on the page,
A little piece of see glass in the waves.
You wouldn't.
Why do I stay on the bright side?
Because I fear the dark,
Knowing what it brings,
I find no peace in it.
Don't stray from the light, darkness has fangs and is not afraid to bight.
