The nighttime has vanished
And with it my fears
I am dauntless now
I will shed no more tears
This cliff is nothing
I scale it in a day
The ocean beside me
I circle without delay
I will walk this earth
Without a care in this world
I will scale every mountain
No danger unheard
Legions of armies
Try to tear me down
But to no avail!
I will rise from the ground
I will go to the tallest tower
Yes the largest on earth
I will show those cowards
Who I was from birth
I will fight off every dragon
Save the princess from her tower
Yes, I will be the victor
I will never cower
Every feat done by man
I will do ten times over
Fear has lost definition
I feel no exposure
In the face of danger and fear
I laugh.
For danger and fear have become
As chaffs.
Yes I will become mightiest of them all
But before I do that, I must learn how to fall

I get ready to go
I sigh as I step
the day has turned to a chore
I don't want to do anything anymore

but then

as I step outside I see
a flower
the air is warmer
the birds are singing
the grass is green
and the day is better

and

all of a sudden the whole world around me lights up
with colour.

my feet shift the darkened sand
leaving footprints in their place
the water brushes against my legs
and wind blows in my face
as the seagulls cry aloud
i continue my steady pace
then sand blows in my eyes suddenly
and I run as if in a race
the ocean has chased me away today
but tomorrow i will be back to this place.

Night is so silent
Blackness so cold.
With a whisper I shatter
All that had grown old.
Sunset is peaceful
Silence is bliss
But when that is gone
There is a gaping abyss.
Coldness surrounds me
As dark as black death
I give up for
Night is the day’s death.

Sitting there, my dread began to descend,
I knew, in that moment, that this was the end.
The end of all things, the end of my world,
My sentence proclaimed, my doom was heard.
My head on my knees, my cries soon resound,
Yet my pleas went unheard, not one made a sound.
Surely judgement would be better than this,
The punishment is too hard, something must be amiss.
But no, I heard it right,
My sentence is real, there will be no more light.
I will lift my head high, they will not see me stumble,
I will be strong right now, I will not fumble.
I will accept this fate with a head held high,
I will wear a fake smile as I do in a lie.
So I get up with a hand stretched out,
And accept my homework without even a shout.

people say
that magic is a great thing
something so rarely seen
it isn't known to exist.

however, I disagree.

magic is everywhere
it is seen in everything.

the dew glazed over the grass
the bright sunrise against a dying sky
waterfalls cascading down over rocks
the gentle breeze blowing a forest full of trees
the ocean roaring against a sandy beach
mountains bright against the  sky.

there is magic in EVERYTHING .

There is a side to us which is hidden from all.
It nearly always creeps and crawls.
In darkness it is hidden from sight.
It only comes out when touching the light.
Only then will people see this dark side,
It contrasts the light, then runs and hides.

Life.
Death.
Its amazing how words
so simple.
so ordinary.
so usual.
can have the impact of thousands.
