Live isn’t like a rose. It’s kind of like art. When you look at a blank picture and you’re trying to get it right the first time, it seems kind of difficult. When you finally start painting, you think you got it until the end reaches. You step back and take a huge look at what you... Read more »

Five minutes for the hour to turn two… I am lying awake, watching my candle burn Its beauty and shed her beautiful tears Drip, drip, drip My room is graced with her elegant dancing… My room is filled with the music of my heart. Trying to fight the fear in my eyes, the pain running Through... Read more »

The storm has passed And the fire no longer burns… The sun is setting And I walk alone, in this black Forest. The wind blows through The leafless broken trees. The air blows and I shudder in my clothes, But not because it is cold But because I am alone… Only a glass window stays standing I am not... Read more »

Seeing things that might seem real, Wondering if this paranormal existence Might take over your life? You live your... Read more »

I see my reflection and wonder who I am. I see the glooming flowers, like if it was the best thing I ever saw before. I see the blue sky, and see the happiness in my smile. I see the tall mountain and wonder if one day I’m going to reach my goals. I see the snow, and my mind clears out with no problems... Read more »

A.S.N. part 2

Adrenaline rushing through my veins. Blood, tears, sweat, and My spirit all left in That field, Nothing less than the best. Hours alone with a ball, and the ball Always by my side, days came and went And the ball was still there, Nothing less than the best. I walked onto the field While it told me nothing... Read more »
