Save it

 I hear everything you're saying
But my dear please, save it
Don't waste your breath on me
Find a person worth it
Someone willing to be free
You're as sweet as the autumn
The summer's heat is you
And when you leave it turns back
To the winter blues
But my dear please, save it
Save all those words
For someone worth them
Someone less absurd
Your soul is beautiful
Your heart is cold but pure
But my darling we're not suitable
I'm not what you're searching for
I appreciate all you've done
I respect your choices as well
I wish I was the man you
Thought I could have been
But I'm not
I'm stuck in the past
So darling save it
Save it for someone better
Break the cycle, not your heart
Don't break your back on someone so bitter
Move on, I simply can't
So leave me living in my former days
I love you, darling
But please save it
For someone who's soul isn't aching
To meet one it never could
I know what you are
I know how well you mean
But trust me darling
The longer you're here
The more mean I'll get
Things you've never wished to hear
Will be said
And when it's all said and done
You'll wish you've saved it
And saved yourself

Blue moon

  Blue moon floating in the Sky as the horizon lights Up beyond the sight of Plebeian blind folk gazing Only at their matters that Which in the grand scheme Of things matters not In the eyes of a child Born within those years You'll be hardpressed to find Defined within them anything more Than fear Clubs and swords are used to wage War upon those they deem Unrighteous or villainous to the code In which they believe Live or die is deemed worthy By those who hold the sword The club is used to break the bones Of those whom they dictate should not Under darkened skies does the red moon rise When the sun gazes away from our designs The worst of the monsters within us climb Up to the peak of our souls they Seek to claim us whole Those of us who are lost To them are the worst among us all Fight or flight take risks or Play safe never one true thought Answers found when steps are Taken from within the resolve Find me flying near the blue moon every Night it shows Find you staring at your w...

Two hundred lines of dry ink and broken dreams

I write not for people I write so that the thoughts within my head Do not develop into evil Things that I will soon come to regret I write for myself I write so that my soul has an outlet I started a journey, during which I wrote Oh so many poems for me If they were to describe my story Then each is a line of dry ink and broken dreams I am not content with he who I am Who am I is a question I often ask Wondering, pondering poking and prodding Questioning the very nature of my fabric When spoken to I'm often idly nodding For my attention is often empty and barren I am living within the infinite versions of the past self I am alive within the world in which I've created in my mind It is a shelter from all that which attempts to delve Deeper than I am ready to share that night Two hundred lines of dry ink and broken dreams Two hundred lines, scattered across them all Is the rawest, purest form of the vessel that is me What is the soul, does it exist? Do I exist? Am I free to live ...

Regent cold and calculated

Today is the fifth week from the darkest night The king remains bed-ridden I must attend to more and more Of matters for which I care not But my king's orders are to be followed He knows best after all I follow him best I can To know, to learn For one day I will lead these people too His son is long-gone, and no heir apparent remains He claims his son will return But I know that's just an old man's hopeful tale The king's wise, calm and secure But he calculates oh so poor It's why I'm here For every time he steps into the streets Someone could make an attempt on his life So I ensure the streets are clear I ensure his safety's paramount always And yet sometimes he evades my gaze He sneaks out and is always safe I will never understand the gift this man possesses... For a man to walk among the commonfolk unabashed and unafraid He possesses true courage, or foolishness But my king's no fool Today is the seventeenth week from the darkest night The king's...
