POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
An amateur at best but in love with poetry.
The Game of War
A savage game
A game where the loser dies out
and the winner dives in.
A hope that our pawns will be last standing
Every last pawn in this game has its own secret weapon.
A weapon that explodes and implodes,
only to knock out the other side's pawns, one by one.
They disappear as others reappear
A game evolving by mere chance.
Every pawn has a family
Every family has a team
Every team has a home
Every home has pawns playing this savage game of chance.
Every pawn is a soldier
Take every pawn home
To stay with their family and live with...

Blinds
You always hide,
You always run away
Your blinds remain closed
Much to my dismay
But something is wrong,
It's plain to see.
I wish someone else,
But it only seems to be me.
Your blinds hide nothing
I see straight through them
I see the inner you
You were hurt and left,
Alone and afraid.
No one to turn to,
Nothing to lean on.
Darkness surrounds you.
But I'm here to help
Just open your blinds
Just wait and you'll see.
Light will shine through,
And even at night,
You will still have me.
You always run away

Much to my dismay
But something is wrong,
It's plain to see.

But it only seems to be me.
Your blinds hide nothing
I see straight through them
I see the inner you
You were hurt and left,
Alone and afraid.
No one to turn to,
Nothing to lean on.
Darkness surrounds you.
But I'm here to help
Just open your blinds
Just wait and you'll see.
Light will shine through,
And even at night,
You will still have me.

Insanity
Roses aren't always red,
Violets aren't always blue.
You couldn't hurt me,
And I couldn't hurt you.
We live in a world where sanity is insane
Flaws are beautiful
Pefection is derranged
You see through my eyes
I see through your veins
Your pulse beats fast,
and your blood flows slow.
If you come to me now,
We will continue to grow.
Violets aren't always blue.
You couldn't hurt me,
And I couldn't hurt you.
We live in a world where sanity is insane
Flaws are beautiful
Pefection is derranged
You see through my eyes
I see through your veins
Your pulse beats fast,
and your blood flows slow.
If you come to me now,
We will continue to grow.
