The Rose

Loozy
I grabbed the flower with one hand
And it's thorny,
painful
and blood-drawing stem
with the other.
"Here" I gave the better of the whole to him
To the one who told me I looked amazing
When I woke up.
Who said he loved me
When he didn't.
Who didn't even try.
"Here" I gave the thorny,
painful
and blood-drawing stem
to him.
To the one who
Wrote to me just because he wanted to
Who didn't take me for granted,
He who loved me for me.
"But why?!" He shouted
"Because you said you'd do anything for me" I replied, with the sweetest of smiles.
And then it rained,
Because his eyes?
They were my everything.
And yet, and yet
I walked away,
As I deserved nothing.
I wrote this poem at 3 AM in a foreign country so don't judge.

Opal tendrils writhe,
sylphic breaths gild ebon tides,
vellichor unspools.

I do not wish to be mature
I do not wish to be wise or responsible
I do not wish have an older soul
For it is not of my own doing

My house was on fire
And I was caught in the flames;
Of course I deteriorated quicker
And I learned how to not burn and become ashes

What should have taken a while to start to turn brown at the edges
From the sun and the warm pavement
Just took being born there

I do not wish to be able to take care of your child so well
For it was because I took care of my father when he couldn't do it himself

I do not wish to be able to avoid conflict easily
For it took practice to master

I have been molded
I have been been burned
I have shaped
I wish I weren't
But I am
And here we are today

I am a mix of grieving and grateful

I’m so selfish, I confess,
I miss your smile, though you're sad.
Even as the sorrow lingers,
I long for joy I once had.

I wish I could ease your pain,
But all I can do is miss,
The light in your eyes, the warmth in your laugh,
Even when you're lost in the abyss.

I used to care what others thought of me,  
But now, I can't say that I do.  
Ace and Seth, cold assassins, move in the night,  
While Niko and others, demons in flight.  

Hybrids are scattered, a strange, shifting scene,  
The little ones bubbly, bright, full of gleam.  
A cat plays with yarn in a carefree dance,  
While a dragon and babies nest in a trance.  

A baby phoenix watches with curious eyes,  
As the older one spreads its wings to the skies.  
My protector, a shadow, hides me from pain,  
Shielding me quietly from sorrow and strain.  

And my partner, my friend, the one true,  
A system themselves, yet they make me feel new.  
In this world, so strange, and full of the bizarre,  
They make me the happiest guy by far.
In the land of Palestine where
The sun shines brightly all the time
And the olive branches sway
And our elders are telling ancient stories
About the land of Palestine
Every day and each moment in the
Land of Palestine is pure bliss and
Each whispered tale of hope within the day and
Powetful hearts beating strongly together

And the markets hum with life a vibrant song
Where laughter dances in accident Palestine and in
The fields where the children play
There spirit thrives resilient and aware

From Gaza shores to mountains high and beautiful Palestine is beating inside my
Heart day and night and
Each sunset paints a beautiful picture
Of the land of Palestine and
Uniting our souls beneath the  
West Bank starry nights  

And the ancient land of Palestine
A very special place and forever
In love we stand and with faith that’s so strong and
Palestine will forever beat inside our
Hearts all day long.
Palestinian Lives Matter
Amen Lord Jesus Christ.
All Lives Matter If You Love And
Believe In Lord Jesus Christ.

And so I understood
At 22, what my mother felt
Waiting for someone
To love them back

And so I’ve understood
The anger in her eyes
In sight of my father
Who never came back

I promised myself
That I will live in this life
With so much joy
In respect to my mom who wanted nothing
But to see me be loved and to love

Yet I found myself
In the shoes of my mother’s past
Oh like I’ve never witnessed this before
May I last a day without you
