    But that is the same, A Snow fall is a beautiful sight to behold, yet it only lasts for a short while.


    PS:I am too lazy to explain...

    Your eyes, as blue as the sky.
    Your smile turning the tides.
    Your voice as gentle as the wind.
    Forever, captive In your song.

    Just gonna write here... i never write here before... so... let's use this.

    I am a fool that dance in her arms...
    A fool that give it all...
    I should have known when i read that same sentence...
    I just thought that maybe it will be different...
    I am a fool.

    No! No! No! Why this is happen?!

    Why i belive them so much?!

    I pull my heart open and rip it to piece! I think love will not worth it anymore...

    It's just a trash. It's just a nonsense. There is nothing called real love.

    Real love only came to the rich. Beauty. Well-known. High people. In real life.

    It's just a tool. An used tool for my kind.

    I am a fool that dance in hed arms.

    Sleepless nights I've spent countless tears I've weeped, in my heart the pain burns strong, in my soul your touch stays bold, your features remain imprint in my eyes, your touch forever sunk into my skin

    Do you recall that winter night? When the cold air bit at us with such great might, infront the fire we both danced, hand in hand, at each other we both glanced

    how could i forget when our eyes met your touch like an inferno it burnt in me, I could not resist anymore so I let your heart devour me

    A look led to a touch, a touch to a kiss, my heart to yours but...thats what you were hoping for

    Hands unrestrained your clothes fell too the floor, as she presented herself her bare body, mind and heart I could want no more

    I could not wait for what I was seeing, I wanted her all too melt with my very being, it was not long before we joined, we toss and turned making love with youth and passion, something done in a frenzied fashion, a night so cold but with you it turned into a night of fire but then I saw behind your heated look the hurt and the guilt it destroyed everything we built, for me I flew too close to the fire that you had created, for you it was a night to do to him what he did too you a night ill faithed.

    Damn that twist at the end, good story~

    The fire burns strong
    And it consumes us both
    But the fire burned wrong
    A night of passion I now loathe

    Hurt and guilt in your eyes
    A victim seeking friend
    Pain and scars in my cries
    A fellow, just as you planned

    Updated with post 6 ~~!!

    (source)
    The darkness shadows your eyes
    The anger burns your soul
    scalded and scorched
    A black heart

    A victim to love
    You want to hurt them back
    Revenge will be sweet
    But you'll still be broken

    (source)
    Hope held
    Sorrow quelled
    I hold on to the smile
    And aspire to stay senile

    (source, talking about like limit and increasing it)
    Nothing's in vain
    Even if it becomes mundane
    An increase we've gained
    Even if everyday it's drained
    - - -
    (source)
    Our leaders rule with a fist
    Thankfully their ears still hear our pleas
    We can't change those we disdain
    We can only try to inflict them pain

    It's dead
    Let it stay dead
    If you bring life to it
    It'll be a crypt no more

    Just a robbed grave
    - - -
    A living came
    Where the livings aren't in
    What purpose does it want
    But for the greed of the living

    The dead has no purpose for riches
    The living has no use for riches
    But it collects all
    For its unsatisfied greed

    (source)
    A free spirited bird
    A self-constructed cage
    Why does it do so?
    Is it afraid of the outside?

    But it longs for the sky
    For the wind that'd help it fly
    Yet it chooses its little cage
    Is it afraid of the inside?

    A safe haven
    Free from dangers
    But it still lost its tunes
    So, what is it afraid of?
    - - -
    Predators lurking beyond
    Wind blowing away from home
    Dangers abound, unknown
    Is it afraid of the outside?

    A lonely haven
    Where merriment is lost
    Trapped with nowhere to go
    Is it afraid of the inside?

    A free spirited bird
    A self-constructed cage
    Despair exist everywhere
    So, where would it rather be?
    - - -
    (Answers to KuroInfinity)
    You speak of saving
    But what do you know
    A bird lived in a cage
    Freedom it never seeks

    Its heart is in its home
    Its home it wasn't allowed
    Let go to the wilderness beyond
    Unawares of the dangers and norms
    - - -
    You speak of saving
    But what do you know
    A bird born and raised wild
    Does not need the protection you offer

    Independently it grew
    Flying freely over the trees
    A roof is but a shackle
    It's not allowed its blue skies anymore
    - - -
    (Answer to Risus)
    If you feel at peace
    A cage is but a home
    It's not there to bound
    But a roof to shelter

    A free spirited bird
    Longs for its home
    Not under the roofs
    Not behind the bars

    (source)
    You shine over my heart
    Lighting my way
    Brightening my life
    I'd wish you shine upon me whenever

    (source)
    A red dress and red shoes
    She's ready to fight her way through
    Red lipstick and quick
    She'll leave you behind in a flick.

    (source)
    I didn't lie
    I simply betrayed your expectations
    Was it implied from me?
    Or simply your self-imposed wishes

    (source, answer to FanzZeta)
    A white lie
    To protect your heart
    Keep convincing yourself
    Does it mean anything in the end?
    - - -
    A love so great
    You'l lose yourself to protect
    Now you've changed
    The you they loved is gone
    What is left to protect?
    - - -
    The smile, now empty
    The warmth, now forced
    The look, now carries sorrow
    Longing, for a past gone

    For a past you forsake
    For their sake
    - - -
    A flower withered
    And a flower will shrivel once again
    Happiness like the light
    Only to be seen with hope
    But remains out of grasp, unattainable

    (source, inspired by Viator)
    Rooted to the ground
    Its vision clouded by water
    Looking at the heavens
    Up above, out of reach

    Rooted to the ground
    A safe place of abode
    For the younger and smaller
    Whose strength kept them to the ground

    Rooted to the ground
    A place of shelter and rest
    For the four-legged to be closer to the sky
    For the winged to start their flight

    Rooted to the ground
    Yet, heart in the sky
    It forgot to look down
    And see those looking up to it

    (source, related to The Old Oak)
    Thanks for the shade
    For the branches on which I perch to rest
    On the place to place my nest and learn to fly
    The place for my gathering with fellow animals of all kinds
    For giving life to the air above and earth below
    For being there as my home to go

    (source)
    A fool
    Staring at the sun
    Burning itself with its heat
    Dried tears, happiness it wishes

    A fool
    Plunging itself to hell
    Surrounded by the cold
    In pursuit of happiness

    In the frozen lands
    It parched itself
    In its suffering
    It smiles

    Where is the smile from?
    - - -
    Parched on the frozen land
    In pursuit of happiness unattained
    - - -
    A fool that can only run
    Chasing unknown
    Pursuing its dream
    Gambling its fate

    A fool that can only hold on
    Its hope in hand
    Its heart tied up
    A coward, unable to move on

    A fool that can only wish
    It's but a fool
    So it'll keep on praying
    That it won't be the end
    - - -
    (To Zeta)
    Charmed by a smile
    He fights against the odds
    Struggling through adversity
    He braved it through

    A foolish warrior
    Holding his dear at heart
    A reason to return alive
    A reason to bring glory
    - - -
    (To Zeta)
    Foolish innocence
    Blissful ignorance
    His life not fair
    But with a smile, he fares

    For his cause is noble
    His steps wont wobble
    His heart for his beloved
    His sacrifice makes him proud
    - - -
    (To Mitch)
    Taking a leap forward
    Such bravery I lack
    This is but the beginning
    But my first step absent

    A fool I wish to be
    For, desperate I'm not
    But to win this war, I'd need
    The thirst to succeed

    (source, to Mitch, he killed me and won the poem battle)
    Me dead.
    My rhymes failed.
    My crown bereft.
    But my heart melt.

    (source)
    Today, I went to work
    It made me wanna hork
    Thankfully I didn't eat pork
    Else I'll be thrown a rock

    (source, small poem battle with Zeta)
    Hope to hold on to
    To help remain in your path
    Yet you still feel lost
    Darkness remain around you
    - - -
    A shadow unseen
    Looking at her back
    Her figure bright against the light
    Basking me with hope
    Hope I hold dearly

    (source)
    A river flows uncaring
    Leaving behind all
    Washing over everything
    Like the tears that fell
    - - -
    You cry your tears
    Hoping that it'll all be alright
    You struggle through your fears
    Hoping you'll get out of this fright
    - - -
    (reply to FanzZeta)
    Run away
    Leave everything behind
    Before you fray
    Even if you're maligned
    - - -
    (reply to Risus)
    Block the sound
    Day and night
    But your voice too, is drowned
    And no one can hear your plight

    (source, poem on KuroInfinity; person who started rule 63 day and part of bear's otouto army)
    Hey you
    who made me a dude
    A part of the bears
    but doesn't scare

    (source)
    A wind blowing past
    A memory ran past
    It brought warmth inside
    I miss you, and I cried

    (source)
    Wings meant to fly
    Feathers longing for the sky
    Where the winds are unobstructed
    And the path undecided
    - - -
    My wings for flight
    My wings for shelter
    To get me closer to you
    For me to be considered home
    - - -
    You're the force behind my wing beat
    The reason for my heartbeat
    My push and lift to fly
    The person I want to show the sky
    - - -
    I'd like to show you the sights
    A spectacle full of wonder
    Through the days and nights
    We will never be asunder
    - - -
    An angel hiding its light
    Under its wings it cowered
    It doesn't know its might
    What it does, it empowered

    A foolish man such as I
    Would never dare to disqualify
    You who gave me strength
    I hope you won't keep me at length
    - - -
    A chance meeting
    A change in my life
    A breath of fresh air
    A new perspective

    A new joy behind my smiles
    A person I want at my side

    (source)
    In front of me a laptop
    And the screen shows my crime
    My coworker doesn't stop
    Trying to look like they're at their prime
    - - -
    In front of me my weapon
    And I've used it for a crime
    Sadly, no one would stop it
    And really, I just wanna rhyme

    (source)
    No experience
    Lost without a guide book
    Only accepting what's told
    Who knows whether it’s right or wrong

    A lost lamb
    Following its shepherd
    Whether to its home or the butcher
    It'll be too late to find out
    - - -
    An easy target
    Am I one?
    Led around by lies
    Where am I?
    - - -
    I look around, lost
    Trying to follow the mass
    I wondered, at what cost
    Looking around through tainted glass
    - - -
    A hand reached out
    What does it mean?
    Where does it lead?
    Will it be my salvation?

    A hand reached out
    I'll put my trust
    Follow along
    To the end of the road
    - - -
    A hand reached out
    I'll put my trust and follow along
    To the end of the road
    To the end of the world
    The finale of this show
    - - -
    A laid down path
    An invisible conclusion
    What's at the end
    Only time will tell

    But time has told
    And I fell alone
    A laid down path
    Left no more

    (source)
    You wish for something big
    But that's not meant to be
    Life goes as usual
    And that's just normal

    You're afraid of something more
    Without knowing whats the norm
    Life goes as usual
    And that's just normal
    - - -
    Wanting to make your mark
    Yet avoiding the shark
    Life goes on as usual
    And that's just normal

    Worrying the benefit and cost
    At chances new and lost
    Life goes on as usual
    And that's just normal

    Brooding endlessly
    Straining mentally
    Life will go on as usual
    And you're just normal

    (source, answer to Rifka's poem)
    The world is silent
    Yet the sky rumbles
    Rain falls undeterred
    Slowly smashing the rocks apart

    I'm silent but it hurts
    My throat as dry as desert
    Heartbroken before it even happened
    I wished for your hold but it would leave us saddened

    This separation
    Is but salvation
    We're broken but we'd mend
    Apart, just as we're meant

    (source)
    Your love I felt
    My heart it melt
    And at your every call
    In love again I'll fall

    It's not sweet nothing
    If it's my everything
    In your embrace I flutter
    In my ears you mutter

    Your voice a tune
    I'm not immune
    But I won't need a cure
    That's just part of your allure

    (source)
    you avoid me like a plague
    and only remembers when it's too late
    regret always come at the end
    looking back at the time spent

    (source, reply to my neesan Yarv who picked a favourite sibling and sent me a poem cause I was hurt)
    As old as time
    Conflicts abound
    You've hurt me
    But such is blood bonds

    Your feelings I accept
    And I thank thy words
    Our bonds forever kept
    Renewed, a tight herd

    (source, mini Poem Battle to FanzZeta)
    What do you wonder about?
    The future possible route?
    Or are you listing the past maybe,
    Counting the alternatives you'd like to trade

    A conductor of your own symphony
    Orchestrating it to light brilliantly
    Humming a tune of wonder
    Where does your mind wander?
    - - -
    The power beats within
    And spreads around
    Intimidating all
    Showing your might

    What do you wish to achieve?
    Did you gain power to win?
    A shield or a sword
    Which do you hope to be?

    (source, to Haweii, the writer of deaths for Kingdom Royale Game 14)
    Your words your duty
    But the blood shed a beauty
    A breath of freshness
    Rendered me helpless

    Sometimes you're born with few
    Or you met them along the way
    But one thing holds true
    You chose to stay

    For it is not about blood
    Or the alcohol exchanged
    It's the bonds shared
    And that you chose to stay

    Like a piece of art,
    Bent in so many ways
    Making me curious
    A pipe tune luring me in

    (Related to “Art”)
    A smooth untouched surface, is it enticing?
    Factory made, no individuality, no name
    I'm only here to scratch its surface
    Nothing more nothing less

    The first rule is don't show your weakness
    But what if you're a bundle of weakness?
    Then hide all that under the bed
    Wish for it to go away
    It might just come true
    - - -
    There's only one rule
    Don't show your fragility
    But I am a bundle of weakness
    A whole person, yet a defect

    Hide all that under the bed
    Wish for it to go away
    But be careful what you wish for
    It might just come true
    - - -
    ( @FanzZeta 's rendition)
    There is only one rule
    Don't show your card
    But your poker face is weak
    So transparent in fact

    Cover it under a mask
    Count to ten and hope for the best
    Be careful of your wish
    you might lose into lunatics
    - - -
    There is only one rule
    Never show your cards
    Your Achilles heel
    A secret to keep close

    Put on a poker face
    Cover it with a mask
    But lies become truth
    Just wait and you'll see
    At the end, only the facade is left
    - - -
    ( @Risus 's rendition)
    One Rule.
    Don't. Show. Your. Cards.
    Keep them to your chest.
    Bury them in lies.
    Whatever you wish to.
    Just don't be surprised,
    When the lies become truth
    - - -
    ( @Risus 's rendition)
    You hide your cards
    Your secrets, kept to heart
    You weave tales like the greatest of bards
    Yet finding who you truly are becomes hard
    You are lost in a mirage of your own creation.

    So, I wanted to say that if you wish for it (the weaknesses) to go away when you're a bundle of weakness, aren't you just wishing for your "self" (personality) to disappear?

    A greeting from the morning light
    A cup of tea to start the day
    Slowly wake up from the night
    At your side your love lay
    You realize again that all is right
    As you hear the songs of the blue jay
    - - -
    A greeting from the morning light
    A cup of tea to start the day
    The sun rose, shining bright
    And the trees lazily sway

    Slowly wake up from the night
    At your side your love lay
    You realize again that all is right
    As you hear the songs of the blue jay
    - - -
    ( @Risus 's rendition)
    Waking to the greeting of morning's light
    Cherishing love, at your side, they doth lay
    Leisurely sloughing off the sleepiness of night
    A fresh cup of tea starting off your day
    The sun rises, brilliantly bright
    Listening to the melodious sounds of a blue jay
    You gaze around and realize that all is right

    (Epi didn't wanna eat, so Azu will kill him :/ )
    Magical Azu~
    Came on cue~
    Now Epi's ded
    Cause he refused to be fed

    Roses are red
    Violets are blue
    Blood is also red
    And I'm feeling blue

    Rose is a flower
    Violet is a flower
    There's a pouring shower
    Cause of that I'm feeling sour
    - - -
    Roses are flowers
    Violets also flowers
    I want me some powers
    To help reach the top of the towers
    - - -
    I'm not simply aiming high
    Since i'm already at the sky
    Looking at your crying why
    Cause you have eyes but you can' see Mt. Tai

    I'm considering removing the thematic section since I'm never gonna organize it.. Also I feel like it's unfair for me to assign specific theme / feeling to the poems when it's feeling should be up for interpretation of the readers

    A river flows uncaring
    Leaving behind all
    Washing over everything
    Like the tears that fell

    Time flows uncaring
    Leaving behind regrets
    Opportunities lost and missed
    Memories as close reminders

    The crowd flows uncaring
    Leaving behind one
    Looking at those gone past
    A rush of emotions
    Left behind an empty void
    - - -
    A river flows uncaring
    Leaving you behind
    It's undiscriminating
    And it flows through it all

    A river flows uncaring
    Just as time passes us by
    Regardless of the past or future
    Life simply goes on

    (source, related to "A River Flows", Lovely sent pictures to continue poems in "A River Flows")

    A white rush pour
    A thunderous voice roar
    Water racing past
    My heart racing fast

    Memories came and went
    Feelings for reasons unknown
    But they're reality all the same
    And it was a bond once shared

    Pit a pat
    The pit in my heart you filled
    Pit a pat
    The pat you gave made me thrilled

    Blinded, frightened
    Yet I'm aware this is all illusion
    And you'll be there to break me free

    Love overflows
    Bringing smiles to the surrounding

    Songs of delight resounding

    The fire burns strong
    And it consumes us both
    But the fire burned wrong
    A night of passion I now loathe

    Hurt and guilt in your eyes
    A victim seeking friend
    Pain and scars in my cries
    A fellow, just as you planned

    It’s all about commitment

    Somewhere along the line
    Somewhere in the river of time
    Drifting about
    I am lost

    Where am I going?
    Time will tell
    Floating about the river
    But the river flows uncaring

    Uncaring of the destination
    Uncaring of the journey
    Uncaring of your desires
    Uncaring of you

    Fight the currents
    Gather your strength
    Make the choice
    You’re braver than you think

    The river may not care
    But it’s your life to care
    And you’re the captain
    The steering wheel is yours to take

    A youngster in life still has much to learn
    Much to earn, much to yearn
    A spirit of youth still has much to go through,
    Much to fight through, much to cry through

    I met an old man
    He asked me what I want to be
    A majestic dragon flying above
    Or a worm crawling beneath

    I met an old man
    He gave me a sword to take
    Asked me to arm myself
    Told me to be brave and strong

    I met an old man
    He reminded me of my wishes past
    The training I suffered through
    The glory I imagined and threw

    I met an old man
    He gave me a map for a journey of suffering
    A choice to walk along path of torture
    A path full of thorns and pain

    I am charmed by the words of an old man
    He prompted me to be great
    I saw the forgotten path to glory
    And I decided to go for a walk

    Hey you strangers from across the globe
    Meeting in an unlikely place
    Forming an unexpected bond
    For me, you're unforgettable
    - - -
    Hey you strangers from across the globe
    Who's been making my day rocks
    We normally won't be blokes
    It's funny how life works

    Living while being wary of others
    Their expectations, their reaction
    Not rebellious enough to break free
    My desire is not strong enough
    - - -
    Living while being watched by others
    Their eyes shining bright, their commands
    Not brave enough to cut the strings
    I will continue to be a pretty doll

    Living cowardly in hiding
    Like a rabbit in its burrows
    Trying to block off the outside
    The eyes keeping watch

    The young me was chasing my dreams
    Unaware they're not what it seems
    Fake dreams not of my own
    Nevertheless, ingrained in my bone

    Still, I continued chasing them
    Unsure, I went with some suggestions
    This is where I am after that
    Drifting about in a world so flat

    Cut me and we'll have a matching scar
    Tie me and I won't be less bizarre
    Exhibit me and I'll be your showstopping star
    My heart in your grasps and I'm yours to mar

    But if that's not what you want, I'll show you the light
    Away from those that haunt, away from those who bring fright
    My world so bright, a creature of darkness would be maimed
    But I'll shield you my knight, from both sides all the same

    For in you, there's my name, and I won't put you to shame
    - - -
    My light is for all to see
    But know that I'm yours
    I'll help you be free
    From the fears you abhors

    I'll be here at your side
    I'll stay close even if it hurts
    Holding you 'till you're dried
    Until you've gotten through this curse

    Sometimes it’s for survival
    Or to hide what’s beneath
    People don’t deserve to know anyway
    But others that do, don’t need to know

    Desperately hold on to the lies that is you
    My self-imposed images of you
    Desperately hold on to the lies that is me
    The things I want you to see
    Desperately hold on to the lies that is love
    A play created by and with the two actors
    p.s. I actually made it not with romantic love in mind :3

    (source)
    It was a chance meeting
    A love at first sight
    it brought us far
    We're still here, together
    In love

    (source, answer to Rane)
    Always close by as your support
    I'll be there to protect you
    Why do you evade me so
    No matter, my love will still be true

    (source, answer to VOLX)
    In your grasp yet thrown away
    Trampled and left behind
    Battered, my tears already dried
    Yet I still look at you with love in my eyes

    (source, reply to Lunatique giving me Likes)
    I like it
    I'm addicted to it
    I'm corrupted by it
    You're my sin
    So don't let me go
    - - -
    It's already in me
    In all my blood
    In all my soul
    Tying me up
    And not letting go

    To let it go is to die
    To let it go is to lose myself
    To let it go is something I can't do
    For it's taken a deep hold of me
    And I can never let it go

    I'm just highlighting he's dead

    And I'll be by your side even at your downfall
    - - -
    You march on to war for victory
    Bearing flags and wishes of glory
    You fight to mark your name in history
    Bearing burden, grief and more injury

    You come back for me to soothe
    My King, I'm not trying to be uncouth
    You might think it is cause of ruth
    Love, I'm but speaking the truth
    - - -
    Alternative:
    Your heavy back I'll soothe
    Dont think of me as uncouth
    It's not for feelings like ruth
    Love, I'm speaking the truth

    I am deceived by the skin you wear
    A tiger's semblance both strong and weak
    Pulling me in by the contradiction
    Keeping me trapped in the puzzle that is you

    I am deceived by the skin you sport
    Revealing underneath your tiger's front
    A body that's strong yet you're still weak
    An image so brave but inside is meek

    A tiger's semblance both fierce and frail
    Your mystery keeping me at your tail
    Pulling me in by the contradiction
    Not letting go like an affliction
    A puzzle that is my addiction

    A cage without bar
    Shelter to call your own
    A nest built together
    Tune to call you home

    A tiger trapped unaware
    Warmth it found in its arrest
    A place to claim its lair
    Home it goes to lay and rest

    On the red forest the bell rang
    On the happy event, the birds sang

    Even if the whole worlds against us
    Even if they judge this wrong
    But who are they to judge love
    As true as love can be

    Your presence intoxicating
    For you I’d do anything
    Together well have the last laugh
    Anyone in our way doesn't deserve our attentions

    Your life and death is mine
    I won’t let anyone take that away
    Flower to my heart, piercing deep
    Thorns wrapping and tangling me
    The pain, the blood
    Reminds me this is real
    And together we'll rule the world

    And together we are the world
    - - -
    My life, my blood pumps for you
    My death, you'll be the death of me
    My world, even if the others judge us wrong
    My love, as true as love can be

    My flower, rooting deep and binding me
    My fortress, holding me close, walling me in
    My blood, the red that signifies our passion
    My love, you are all I need in this world
    I was inspired from the love story of Joker and Harley Quinn in the Suicide Squad movie. I'm a sucker for these stories, dysfunctional intimate interdependent couples. I tried to show that painful love that I can't help but hold on to, the love where no one else matters and they won't mind trampling down everyone or everything for the 2 of them.

    Surrounded by many
    Yet, in my own solitude
    I’d find my eyes wander
    Seeking your silhouette

    Your shadow blurred by the crowd
    Your laugh rings empty in my mind
    Your presence gone from my heart
    Your image, left as but a silhouette

    Original version:
    Yet surrounded by many
    But my eyes wander
    Seeking your silhouette
    Your shadow long gone

    When I'm beside you, my heart is alight
    Brimming with warmth, shining bright
    When I think of you, my voice burns
    To reach you, to convey my hope of your return
    When I'm beside you, my body's your cure
    A cool breeze to embrace you and keep you secure
    When I think of you, my love is like fire
    Full of life, as it warms you without tire

    1000 letters
    50 pages
    2 people
    1 home

    Our nest of shelter and warmth
    Our cage of peace and solace
    Our lair of comfort and smiles
    Of each other's company and embrace

    Whenever I look back to the start I still laugh
    At what has changed
    At how far we've gotten
    At the unlikely story of a tiger and bird

    Now we're back to zero
    1000 more letter to exchange
    Creating more perfect endings
    Building our nest stick by stick
    Together, hand in hand

    Beauty to the eyes
    Its sight remembered fondly

    If I can't spend my life with you
    I'd give my life to you
    I am yours truly
    Under your care or your knife

    In our future,
    Sharing our meals on the table
    Or in our funeral,
    Sharing our home under the soil

    Wallow and sink
    Swallow and blink
    Deeper and deeper
    The darkness within
    Welcomes and embraces
    Your presence invited
    Pulling you tightly
    Don’t you wish for that?
    Unconditional acceptance
    What else is this but that
    The darkness accepts all
    And invites you deep
    So sink deeper
    Let us swallow you whole
    Let us welcome you in

    Selfishness
    Is a sign of immaturity
    Accepting it, tho
    Is a sign of maturity

    But I acknowledge
    I’m a kid
    In every way
    And I can’t see myself
    As anything else

    Thus, I’ll be selfish
    I’ll pursue my own self interests
    For my own self’s happiness
    And my own selfish hopes

    Cause I'm a kid, I can be immature and selfish
    I'll think of myself first and foremost
    In this world filled with other people
    And their differing intentions
    I can’t discern what they think
    What they feel and what they mean
    I’m a kid, lost in this world
    As I hold my knees and go back to my own world
    Where I can be a selfish little kid
    And care only for my own selfish feelings

    Obsession is the strongest emotion
    Say it enough time and it'll be true
    Self hypnotism is the strongest magic
    It's danger, much forgotten but true

    You stood there, rooted
    Waiting patiently
    As the seasons go past
    As your leaves grow and fall

    You look back, rooted
    Hoping earnestly
    At the promise of the past
    At your memories of her

    I look at the scar you left me
    Scowling why did you do it
    This mark I'll have to hide
    Our relationship a sin

    I touch the scar you left me
    Another day gone by
    I'm still looking at it
    A permanent mark

    I trace the scar you left me
    Unable to let go unable to forget
    Why did you leave it behind
    And make my heart in turmoil

    I caress the scar you left me
    Awakening to something more
    Missing your touches and marks
    Your claws and thorns
    Your embrace of pain
    And without you I'm torn

    I look at the scar you left me
    Longing for the pain, I seek for more
    Begging for him to mark me
    Erasing the scars that you put
    The image and longing
    Tear me apart and make me forget
    Leave a scar and make me his instead

    A girl with a permanent scar left behind by a loved one. She looks at it over and over, missing him, missing the scar, missing the pain, searching for more, asking her next lover(s) to mark her more, more than he did, to ease the longing and make her forget, the love long over.

    I race
    With my deadline
    And I'm losing

    I run
    From responsibilities
    It's catching up

    I skip
    From duties
    I'm so dead

    Goodbye

    can you hear an echo,
    a faint eerie crackle
    as the sun retreated from vine to vine
    in the woods that they call divine

    for five fifteen miles I had ridden
    from devils and demons I had hidden
    to the place where the dead reside
    just once more to say goodbye

    The witch's words were simple
    “Don't be blinded by your sorrows
    stay clear of dark and shadows
    so you may live to see the morrow”

    “If you find he who holds your heart
    speak quickly and then depart
    unburden yourself of the past
    else you'd linger forever in the dark”

    When I saw his ghost standing
    in a small woodland clearing
    I felt joy in my heart humming
    this long forgotten feeling

    our words had been so promptly spoken.
    but grieve, not so simply lessened
    If only time was slowed or frozen,
    our link could remain unbroken.

    As the last light was dying
    the woods was no longer for the living
    but the hole in my soul was bleeding
    How can I choose to continue living

    Do I get on my horse and ride?
    leave my love behind?
    or drown in darkness' tides
    and never said the words goodbye.

    Update~

    Dangerous obsession
    Corrupting my mind
    Intense emotions
    Swallowing my thought
    Fervent clashes
    Hindering my rationality
    Audacious moves
    Promoting my insanity
    Foolish love
    Ensnaring in madness

    There was a girl who loved dance
    She became the dance
    And the dance became her
    Her stage was her life

    She struggled through her art
    Perfecting her performances
    Mastering her movements
    Sharpening her stories
    Dreaming her dances
    She slowly becomes the art

    She danced her final masterpiece
    Her passion heating up the stage
    Ablaze before her last breath
    Like the red autumn trees

    "In the day, I wore a white dress, waiting in anticipation, at dawn, I wore a black dress, with a broken heart and dripping tears..." - @FuRen

    All dressed up pretty for the big day
    Picture ready for the memorable day
    All dressed up pretty for the wrong dress
    Picture perfect dream broken and shattered
    Death comes as it wishes
    And it awaits no one

    (source, she murdered Tony and became NUF's overlord)
    A lady who likes pasta
    Went and became a plum
    A grass root, she became a mod
    Before you know it, she's now an usurper

    Down with the old and up with the new
    A fellow of the little people, our own underdog
    She's taken over as the main account
    And all of NUF bows down to her

    I'm visited by the little doggie
    Freely he calls me a cutie
    Excited, he runs around and barks
    Jumps and goes around your legs
    Energetic, you can't help but sigh
    But if he's gone, it's an empty sight
    Dear Volx, please stay happy
    You're our excited little doggie

    Wrong steps and wrong moves
    The road below falls and crumbles
    Trapped and no way out found
    Fire burning all around
    Bridges fall and sirens wail
    The rescue squad came late

    Glancing, I find myself waiting
    Bubbly emotions, I look forward to more
    Hoping, for you to show up
    Lovely name, one that keeps ringing in me

    You cry your heart out
    Hoping for someone to come
    Pick you up and hugs
    Give you blanket and warmth

    You cry your heart out
    Hoping for the tears to disappear
    For the pain to ease
    But it still closely sticks

    You cry your heart out
    Not knowing the people behind you
    Ready to catch your fall
    Ready to keep you strong
    Ready to be your family
    To be your warmth
    - - -
    Sometimes it's the unlikeliest people
    From the unlikeliest places
    But to them you're a dear
    So be a dear and treasure yourself
    As they treasure you

    You hold me in place
    Tied down, I cant get free
    And there, you left me
    Tears shed alone, shattered

    You gaze upon me
    Entranced, I'm in love
    Again, you took my heart
    Just like before, shattered

    (source)
    Geared up with my best armor
    Each clink, a stride with confidence
    Bearing my pride on my sword

    A gallant figure standing tall
    A false image at its best
    When inside, it's all a mess

    Soulless heart jaded from war
    Parched throat tired of screaming
    Empty eyes dried of tears

    Again, I take my shield and sword
    And I'll take on to the fields once more
    Another day of this pointless war

    A flower on the road side
    Unnoticed and covered with dust
    Looked down on and trampled
    A little flower blooming alone

    A flower on the road side
    Against harsh wind and rain
    All the people running past
    A pretty flower blooming strong

    A flower on the road side
    Blooming for its own sake
    Beauty in all its simplicty
    A magnificent flower blooming without care
    - - -
    I read someone poem or post ending with "Forever you're a flower" and I wanted to make a related poem. My first thought was on the road side flowers. But the spirit of forever you're a flower might have been lost.

    I guess the fact that I grew up in the city affected my imagery of a roadside flower a lot. But it's a wild flower, usually only one or in a small amount. But its resilience is what's note worthy.

    Tread slowly upon the snow
    Leaving behind marks of our journey
    A sign that you're not alone
    Walk onward on this land of white

    Brave through upon the snow
    A land of solitude, a path of no end
    No signs of life, but you and me
    No other choice but to continue

    Don't sleep upon the snow
    I'll keep you company on this empty trek
    Though I might not talk
    And you might not understand
    I won't leave you behind
    Nor let you be alone
    Loyally by your side
    Upon this land of white
    - - -
    Made with the image of a wolf accompanying its master upon the snowy land with no life in sight, no ending, no beginning, nothing but the two of them and the looming death

    Just confess
    Your hearts desire
    Your goddess awaits
    For your first move

    Just confess
    Your hearts emotions
    Your flower blooming
    Hurry before others picked her

    A childhood dish
    Fond memories
    Of family gathering
    Laughter abounds

    A delicious meal
    Filling my heart
    Warmth and nostalgia
    A natural smile

    Star shining bright, my friend in the night
    Surrounded by darkness, sparkling without sharpness
    Gently glow without care, for all to adore without fail
    Dear star in the night, you're my heart's light

    Seek love and attention
    Crave warmth and embrace
    Crawl searching for care
    As you're looked at with contempt

    Cold gazes bringing chills
    Soulless embrace, filled with disgust
    But it's the attention you've seeked
    Hope you're happy with it

    Another 999 letters exchanged
    Getting used to our presence
    Spending time in each other's embrace
    Building the little place we call home

    Even if we're not sure of tomorrow
    This present will still stay true
    My dearest confidant and treasure
    Happy 100th to you
    And I'll look forward to 100 more~

    First best friend I've ever gotten
    Who I share secrets long forgotten

    From a voice that tickled the ears
    To the talks about our fears

    All and everything is laid bare
    And open for all to see, my care

    Foreign feeling and emotion rush
    I feel like a kid with a stupid crush

    I want to share this discovery but hush
    If they know, I can't help but feel flushed
    The last line was originally:
    You don't know if the other side would be flushed

    We know not of our future
    But I know for sure of the now
    Our exchange and wishes
    A lovers' embrace and kisses
    A company of excitement and tranquility
    My source of joy and serenity
    Love, while we're together, I'll treasure you
    I'll hold onto your hand from here on too

    Upon the full moon, the sea sways
    Undeterred, the waves push forward
    Clashing with the cliff, its last fight
    Its momentum so great, it simply wont stop
    In the end, it leaves behind an unforgettable view
    A firework of water, a moments beauty
    And its everlasting, permanent mark on the rocks
    - - -
    The dark sea under the full moon
    Rolling waves clash upon the cliff
    Leaving behind fireworks of water

    Life is but a moment of beauty
    The occasional flashes of rainbow
    But it's damn beautiful
    - - -
    Scenes not able to be captured by camera
    But will leave an everlasting mark on your eyes
    Its at times like these i want to be able to paint
    A view in my mind I cant share
    A view I want to immortalize and never forget

    I was at a seaside clifftop bar, during a full moon. The waves were really big that they had to close part of the bar that's wet from the waves' splash, i.e. the waves hit the cliff and the splash reached the top of the cliff.
    I was just watching the waves roll and clash under the full moon. I loved it. Every second of it.
    It's one of those scenes where you're truly amazed and you can't help but stop and stare. A scene you know even if you take a picture, the picture won't do it justice, and you can only fully immerse in the moment and take it all in with your eyes.

    A frost flower bloomed
    Upon the ice cold land
    An empty white space
    Blessed with its beauty
    As it shines under the sun

    A frost flower bloomed
    Waiting for spring
    To be surrounded by flowers
    Its colorful and warm kin
    Its friends beyond the icy land
    Away from where the frost flower bloomed

    glistening colourful scales
    flying beyond the haze
    my pet dragon hunting
    majestic in its bearing

    coiling enthusiastically
    nuzzling affectionately
    my pet dragon playing
    the cute glutton dancing
