2 JUL 2017 - Yeah... I want to react as much as possible.
9 JUL 2017 - I regret reacting to 50+ poems in an instant. So I will do them piece by piece.
3 SEP 2017 - I am back from two weeks of absence!

A cloudy sky I stare, at this gray morning,
It is so gloomy, yet also charming.
Even when it seems to be mourning,
I still think of it as very heartwarming.
It's gloomy in here, in this deep dark abyss.
Where did it go wrong? When did everything go amiss?
Everything was once so bright,
And everyone was filled with delight.

Yet now all is gone,
The demons have started to spawn.
As I got pulled in an even darker abyss,
I wonder, is this my final bliss?
Whether it's left or right,
All I can see is trash everywhere.
Let's clean it up! Until everything's white,
Because it is this world, that I love and care.

Everyday is a battle to find the real me,
Back then I was still one, then it became two, then three.
As I became older, "I" started to disappear,
But at least it has been fun, until this very last year.

Did you remember that I once said this?
Did you remember that I once said that?
Memories disappearing, it's a curse, it's a bliss,
It now does not matter for we will enjoy until the line goes flat.

He has been smiling in the light,
She has been crying in the dark,
He came to her and said "It's alright,"
"You are not alone." And thus he started the spark.
Lonely I was, but then I met you.
Reflecting my every actions, you even look like me too.
This empty world has become something new,
Even though the truth, I already knew.

Even when we look and act the same,
You are not "here", not trapped within the frame.
I will reminisce the time we played this game,
For I have to return into the one with no name.
There was once two humans named Love and Life.
Love holds dear of Life as she was his wife.
Life without Love, would wither and rest in sadness.
Love without Life, would fall into the hands of madness.
Love and Life are a couple which should not be separated,
For together forever, they are fated.
A crow and a dove once encountered another on a tree.
Being nice to each other and praying for a blessing, they both agree.
It was then that the crow had prayed on noon,
"Oh Lord, I pray for happiness to appear for Miss Dove soon."
Miss Dove had heard the crow's prayer, very honest and fair,
And prayed upon the moon, asking for Mr. Crow's to be her pair.
Lord Moon had heard both wishes and smiled,
He granted both wishes, and the two bore a child.
You are crying during the night. You are smiling during the day,
But are you truly sad as you think? Are you truly happy as you say?
You are smiling in times of joy. You are crying in times of despair.
I will continue asking you, for I recognize the mask that you wear.
Abandon your mask and put on your true face,
For it is your heart that you should embrace.

Fluttering from your praise,
I hid my own face.
So much joy, I began to daze,
Your feelings I will happily embrace.
Exhausted by my own answers,
I force myself to stand.
As I congratulate the actors,
I exited the stage and return into sand.
There is few time left before the curtains fall,
May the best traitor be the one who takes all.
Tomorrow we shall wake and start to blame,
Repeating the actions of the very same game.
Here I am at the well, gazing at the abyss.
Appalled by this world, into the well I intentionally fell.
Then something outrageous had happened, I was lifted up above.
It was the Saving Wind, who is so small and yet so smart.

Seeking death as I was, at him I began to hiss.
Interrupting my anger, the Saving Wind began to yell,
"Death you do not desire! But warmth that is called love!"
Love they have given me, illuminating my heart.
Admiring your beauty, I watch your sleeping face.
Motionless and speechless, how long did you sleep?
From what I understand, it seems pretty deep.
Admiring your beauty, even though of life there was no trace.

Watching you for days, to me your beauty still amaze.
With no one here nearby, as they might call me weird.
Crumbling piece by piece, I disappear as I had feared.
Admiring your beauty, I spend my final days.

Excitement and ecstasy, are running through my veins.
Restriction? Constraint? I already forgot what it means.
Expressing my affection to the world, in red I have dyed.
Beyond salvation I have gone, in red I have died.
One day I have encountered, a beauty which is oh so pure,
She is the light in the night, making me insecure.
Countless hearts of men were captured by a mere look on her,
As she stole my stage, my eyes began to blur.

Blinded by envy, I pushed her from her spot,
It was then when I sinned for I have done what I should not.
In pieces she shattered. The beauty disappeared from this story.
The beauty is be no more, and yet I don't feel so sorry.
In this bleak world, a single treasure we seek.
A valuable treasure which makes us weak.
A precious gem which makes us unique.
A mere moment of pleasure, that is what we seek.
In search of pleasure, you painted yourself black.
In this world of white, it is a dreadful crime.
An irreversible change, you will never come back.
Wandering the world have you done for a long time.

Watching you broken and tattered,
I feel as if my heart has been shattered.
Breaking the rules, I ran to embrace,
You, who are my only solace.
Magic is an illusion to those who doubt.
A mere tool for a couple coins of copper,
Unknowing that their judgement is improper.
Because that is not what magic is all about.

Even if it is for a short period of time,
Magic is something to show fun to the society.
To show them, that the unknown does not bestow anxiety.
To compare magic with a mere illusion, such a crime.

"Love is magic, but magic is not an illusion."

Today is our special day,
But I returned too late.
Cold the soup has become,
But in front of you I won't be glum.
Today has not ended yet, and thus I will amend,
We shall enjoy our special day until the very end.
I... am stuck. I am stuck in this abyss.
I am stuck because of something amiss.
My mind... is in disarray.
I cannot escape, let alone get away.
My feelings... has worn out.
There is somebody I cannot live without.
My heart... is frozen in time.
Its core has finally ceased to chime.

I have begun to lose my sight,
As well my hope to find the light.
Now my warmth begins to seep away,
...please, don't leave and just stay.
The dead has returned,
Filled with unworldly desires.
Quickly, quickly! Hurry, hurry!
Devour this world before it expires.
Locked in leather, a bird sheds her tears.
Her cry struck the heart of a cowardly boy,
So he freed the bird with fears.
And since then, the two had been living in joy.

A little bird
In its little cage
It chose to be trapped
Away from nature
- - -
Staring humans, tilting my head
What are you saying?
To be outside, full of danger
Wouldn't it be nicer to be safe?
In this little metal cage
Have no fear
For I am here
I am by your side
You don't have to hide
- - -
Have no fear
For I am here
Come and let us fare
There is no need for that despair
The memories you hid away
I found them by chance
Those days were oh so gray
I can see by a glance

Ashes of the past
Still wet with your tears
Times have passed
This room is now filled with cheers

Liking posts, liking posts, liking beyond the limit,
Even more, even more, even more by the minute.
Commenting, commenting, commenting the posts!
Hm? Wait a minute, where is everybody? Have they turned into ghosts?
It is alive
It wants to stay alive
If you present death to it
Everything will become silent

It will be a graveyard
- - -
A dead returned
To the world of the living
Unfertile land, dry and burned
The undead are not forgiving

The dead feeds the living to live
The living doesn't have much to give
Yet the dead serves gluttony
As the living screams in agony
In this cold that you froze
Cold light radiates by morning
This world is no longer warming
This world I shall dispose
A black truth
Attacked your soul
Nobody is here to soothe
No matter, for the pain pierces nothing but a hole
- - -
A flickering love
Swaying between life and death
Things never change
You always distrust me
Why did I even start to care?
- - -
This smile, soulless and cold
This warmth, I stole from them
This appearance, covered with shards
Seeking and longing, for retribution of my past

For an end of this nightmare
To end that, that I cannot bear
- - -
The seeds are scattered
The anomalies have expanded their wings
Sadness hiding in the shadows
Easily to be found
Until comfort heals your scars
A wind blew past
A memory flashes
A tear drops at last
Another returned into ashes
So. Did you finally stop avoiding me?
It is time to justify your crimes.
Then again, remember the times when we were carefree?
Those sure were some good times.
I was born along many
Yet I have never been 'loved' by any
One I encountered as I grow
But deep inside I know I had to let go

Nothing matters any longer
The cold has just become stronger
There is no other road to take
I am not strong enough to stay awake
