Stories of your illumination were once told Across the land and sea of old A man carved out of sunlight A disciple sent from Apollo to end the night You travelled across rivers, deserts and mountainous terrain To condensed cities and vast planes Providing shelter from darkness Smiting blights who dared to harm us Word spread across the globe Of a hero who wore a sun-etched robe “Lightbearer! Sun-Walker! Lifebringer!” We’d...

The Princess Awakened by the midnight thunder A sense of sorrow washes over me No one sees what lies under I only wish to be free I saunter to the castle window My last cry, the final plea My pain is as boundless as the sea I commence my crescendo “Is there anyone out there, Willing to keep me safe and warm Willing to shelter me from the storm Is there anyone, somewhere? One that shields me from malice He who would unbind...

There’s this bitch I know, and she’s not half as pretty or as smart as she thinks she is (you know the type). Every Friday at 8 am, I have to spend my time listening to her tell me about her greatest latest adventure, which usually is a stupid fucking waste of my time, and an invitation to doze for another hour.But not today. Today, like a blue moon or a shooting star or a once in a lifetime kind of miracle, she keeps my...

There’s a demon insideeating at my soul taking for itself everything I meant to give. Hold me close, never let me go chase away the shadows, he has created I never knew what love could do. The way it heals, and sends my demon fleeing, running for cover. Occasionally, he rears his head again only to be met by the shining light of your love. It never seems to fade, always there when I need it most. You never leave me to fig...

From the moment he made youto the moment I saw you ruined,I always knew you were weakand that you'd eventually be torn. Your shield so small,you couldn't keep it up front.Your sword so short, it refused to stay put.Your armor so thin,a needle was all it tookbefore you were lying in pieces upon the floor. And yet I loved you for your flaws,and so many there were.But because you were mine,I really couldn't care. We went on...

Somehow, someday I remember the day we met, Your words came across the page, Filled with promises, Of somehow, someday You spoke such eloquent and caring words They touched my heart Filled with promises Of somehow, someday You were my knight, And then became my day Filled with promises, Of somehow, someday You reached my dreams, You Filled my heart, Filled with promises Of somehow, someday As time went on, We became one F...

Lilacs abudding,Showers and rainclouds scudding Roe deer still rutting. Soon creatures cower, Heavy the sense of power Above the bower. Here a dragon flies, A single black raven cries The warning just dies. ******************** Landing in the blooms, The dragon rests as it grooms Latent fear yet looms. Fearsome head turns round, Hearing soft steps on the ground He takes a great bound. True beauty so sweet, The dragon land...
