Poems

The world will come to claim your heart

But you owe it to yourself to never let it go

Fate will come with a thousand silver knives

and a thousand golden grenades

But you owe it to the stars in your eyes

To never let it go

When Judgement day comes and you're asked to walk into the light

With God as your witness, you need to be able to say you did it right.

As  I  sat  on  my  workday  desk, I  felt  a  presence  behind  me.

I  stiffened  and  panicked  for  I  knew  not  what  that  creature  would  be,

Whatever  it  was, I  sensed  the  wild  spirit  in  it, 

And  I  ran  like  a  mad  man, ran  without  any  wit,

I  could feel the creature following and my heart went haphazard.

I  ran  and  ran  for  a  very  long  time, 

Till  I  came  to  my  senses and  sensed  a  familiarity  behind, 

And  I turned around. 

My  heart  stopped  for  a  moment, so  shocked  I  was, 

For  what  I  saw  was  me  myself;

Without  any  shackles  and  without  any  bonds,

Free  and  wild  to  please  myself,

And  that was  who  I  was  running  from.
