The Beacon Of Hope:



My outstretched hands old,
The wrinkles shriveled in the dark,
The Earth firmly in my palm,
My life was given a mighty spark,

The air was cold,
The cave gave me assurance,
My old skin grew weary,
But I was still able to prance,

My mind stayed in the globe of old,
Yet my body slowed within the bubble,
I saw the patrons leave one by one,
But only I saw all of their troubles,

I sat behind patiently,
Waiting, watching, aware,
They turned to see my blank face,
Yet they never knew why I did stare.

Demon Down:

The pain seeped down,
It dripped past my pale body,
Then flew into my heart,
Eating away inch by inch,

The beating became weaker,
The pounding slowed to a faint whisper,
The young doe unable to hear the quiet plea,

My heart sought for a rain,
Awaiting the time for the colors to shine bright,
The sun hidden behind the grey clouds,
Holding it's covers over it's shameful body,

A tear fell from the sky,
The ground shocked by it's tumble,
A rumble was heard from the horizon,
Yet the sun stood behind still hidden away,

The pain was near,
It closed in to accept it's winnings,
It fell down a deep dark pit,
And devilish me laid there watching it fall.

Nearby Stranger:

The beggar boy crying on the corner,
You felt the fray come near,
I held onto my old heart,
Yet you were all I could hear,

The sweet sound of harmony,
The birds chirping in a nearby tree,
The soft sun gleaming in the sky,
But never once did I wonder why,

I saw the great from the worst,
I heard your sorrows bury deep down,
You were on the verge to burst,
But I kept that from becoming a sound,

The life I once knew fell,
It fell deep into the abyss,
I sought to find another,
But they all turned out to be a cyst.

Hell's Fury:

The world spun right 'round,
The sounds of birds echoed from the sky,
My voice carried on like the wind,
My thought began but would die,

I heard the sounds from the whisky wind,
I heard words forming around my ears,
Yet I couldn't for the sake of me undo being blind,
And one day it'll be the reasons of all of my tears,

I saw you laying there,
Dreaming up away in the clouds,
Yet when the birds flew by,
You hid away in the deepened crowds,

The sun struck my rosy tanned cheeks,
A lone branch sat by my side,
I brought all of my dreams to ink,
Yet all I felt was the wave's collide,

I felt my give go,
My curly hair hung onto it's faint hope,
I sat by the one that saw to my pain,
But there was longing for me to cope.

Fighter's FreeFall:

I will always be the gleam in your eye,
The cool calm summer breeze,
You will always be the fallen tide,
The beggar groveling on his knees,

 I will always be the stars that light up the sky,
The crisp glint of the moon's lone wheeze, 
You will always be the raccoon faking your own death,
Being the dead limbs in the trees,

I will always be the runner who finishes the race,
The one who hears the crowds like the seas,
You will always be the runner who never fully began,
Because I am the one who believes.

Calming Go:

The breezy wind faint,
The rabid rapids carried me away,
The bugs waited for Tan's demise,
But His truth was to stay,

I floated downstream,
I awaited my next lone task,
I fell down the frightful waterfall,
But I did so wearing my Hero's mask,

The fall was sweet and painless,
The view majestic as any sight,
The sun rose to it's peak,
But I crumbled through all of my might,

My skin crashed onto the water below,
The eruption terrorized the quiet peace,
My body still and calm,
But my heart was up with it's lease,

My eyes drifted past my memories,
I felt myself slowly let go,
I fought with all of my strength,
But my effort started off too slow.

Reunited Push:

The blue haze still in the sky,
The smoke covered the light,
The ground wet and green,
The fire smelted and dead,

The wind brushed on by,
The beating rain was out of sight,
My shoulder made it hard to lean,
I couldn't hear anything you might've said,

My mind a wonderer,
The green covered for miles,
I saw my life be put into motion,
And then it began with a single tile,

The wind took over roughly,
Quickly becoming my only regret,
The red bled throughout the sky,
Yet I didn't have to fret,

My timid mind grew with anticipation,
But I saw the end with my own eyes,
Even though the world was made for life,
Everyone under the sun dies.
