Trees

I often wonder how it would be,
If I was born a great oak tree,
Stood tall and proud all on my own,
Once just a seed nature had sown.
Witness to all manner of things.
The bird that calls,
The bee that stings.
In my glory I would adorn,
A green halo, the odd acorn.
My strength my height would be plain to sight,
My roots gripping earth with all their might.
An impressive sight for much to ignore,
"Just a tree" they'd say, "seen one before".
Trees are like humans you see,
Taken for granted; Just like me.

I read extensively, I write abundantly. I am gay, I love vampires and zombies and all nature of ramblings.

The Birds Sing The Blues

On the dreariest of days the clouds oppress the skies. The flowers fail to smile. The sun refuses to shine. The wind adds an edge to the atmosphere. This is when the birds sing the blues.

The Flower

You wear a flower, Woven in your hair. You pluck it with thought, And take a lot of care. That flower is you, Beautiful and bright. It's amazing really- Nothing prettier in sight.

The Wind

The wind is strong, stronger than men, stronger than what they have created. The wind is soft, softer than the softest hands, softer than the silk those hands made.

If I Could Choose What My Heart Was Made Of

I'd choose diamonds so no-one could break it. Or gold so it would always be guarded. Maybe balloons, when it's big I'd be generous. Or elastic so I'd never be torn.

Hourglasses

Fill this crystal glass with something more than ice. Give me the will, the unsuspecting courage, the confidence. To live my life. Let me understand, am I lined up behind the damned.
