Poet Introduction
As a growing poet, I appreciate whatever comments that anyone cares to give to help me grow.
Pick Me!
My dark melody,
Come steal my soul,
Repeat the siren's song,
Come achieve your goal.
Tune thy ashen harps,
Angels of black death,
Play the dead to sleep,
May they finally rest.
The clouds had come to cry,
Like statues that mourn forever,
Tears that fall from above,
Turn fine skies into gloomy weather.
Such a pitiful sight,
That even heaven mourns,
The pain that never ends,
Seem to renew each dawn.
Take me away,
Lead me with your scythe,
Lets cross the river, Styx,
And leave behind this life.

Premonition (Chapter 10)
i tried doing a chapter made completely from dialog. First time doing this so forgive me if its crap * :/
"Balthazar is already under Carleon's control. What makes you think they won't do the same to Azalea?" voiced Noir Metallise, Lillian Academy's hard headed headmistress. "I say we move the students to-" "To where, Alice?! The outskirts of town? Across the seas?! What makes YOU think that they won't bomb the countryside once they get to Azalea?!" "Then where do you think we should move them to then, Elaine?" "I say we stay put and build...

Noir's last letter.
Amaranth,
Such a sweet name,
But for the owner to be from hell,
Thats just a shame.
Immortal love,
Its meaning, so lovely,
Yet so much pain in between,
Those sad grey eyes of thee.
When i first found you,
You were praying for death,
Cursing the war,
And saying you had nothing left.
Our bond started there,
Your tortured soul, healed,
However, my condition only worsened,
As you became my shield.
I named you my knight,
After you wanted to cast away,
Your sweet sweet name,
To keep bad memories at bay....

Premonition (Chapter 9)
Irritation and anxiety flooded through me as I impatiently waited for third period to finish. I would be content with just the view but the class or better yet, the zoo, was getting out of hand. I let out a sigh while I watched an entire fleet of paper planes crash into the blackboard. Apparently, the teachers were dragged into yet another meeting, leaving the cages unattended. I could let myself out but I didn't know when they'll be back. It had to be a crime to deal with idiots this early in the morning and hell be damned if I had to handle Mrs.Rachel as well. What makes it worse is that...

Lobelia's poem to Lancer
Lobelia and Lancer are both characters from Premonition, a story i'm writing*
It doesn't matter,
Even if you're in a happier mood,
If i couldn't have you,
Then nobody could.
Call me a lier,
A betrayer, if you will,
If you knew me at all,
You'll understand why i made the deal.
They promised to keep us safe,
The 2 of us in this chaotic place,
Leave that dying girl to rot,
She's losing in life's race.
Why is it always her?
Why don't you look here?
What does she have that i don't?
She won't love...

Premonition (Chapter 4) *the missing chapter*
Eternally the busiest mouth in the entire academy, and also the most popular, was Jacintha Rogue. At the very beginning of the school year, Arista always had a kick out of it when she heard the teachers call her Miss Rogue. Besides living up to her family name, it was rumored that she had dirt on each and every one of the inhabitants of Lilian Academy, including the teachers. Blackmail was but second nature to her, and her ego was definitely larger than the amount of clothes she wore when she wasn't altering her own uniform. Her second in command was Veronica Stonewall. Similar in some...

Premonition (Chapter 8)
I could see it even if he couldn’t. The blood dripping from his fingers as he tried so desperately to hold on to those threads that kept us together. That pained expression upon that tear stained face of his. The dust from remnants of his broken heart sweeping across the darkness, forcing him to the ground. It was in this darkness that pain brought him strength. Bittersweet energy, just enough to fuel his will to live.
What was I to him, exactly? I could find a million words locked away in those intense emerald eyes, yet never understand a thing. He had never spoke a single word, his...

Premonition (Chapter 7)
Rudely ushered in the direction of one of the classes, Syn’s mind was still spinning in circles. What if the girl he had seen wasn’t her? Was it merely a coincidence that she shared so many things in common with her? What if it WAS her? Did she dream about him too? Would she shudder at his touch once she knew who he was? Would she regret having anything to do with that of a monster? What if it really was all a dream and nothing more? The majority of his options pointed towards him giving up on the idea of her existence altogether. With a heavy sigh, he wiped off whatever emotion that bled...

Premonition (Chapter 6)
It was raining that night. The rain pounding against the white washed building, hundreds of stories high. The water forming streams that gashed from the mouths of the stone gargoyles from up above. Lightning snaked its way across the blackened sky as the thunder continued to unleash its fury.
The boys made their way across the rotting wooden planks as they stepped down from the train. It was at least a 5-hour ride to the academy in the freezing cold. As usual, all of them chose to overcrowd a single cart, not because of the logic of using body heat to stay warm, but their fear of the...

Premonition (Chapter 5)
He was there…That night, bombs fell from the sky, shattering the earth into a million pieces like fragile pottery. Screams of the dying constantly filled the hazy air. Prayers for the dead, echoed throughout the whole of Balthazar, interrupted only by the noise of the train, stowing away the future generation somewhere safe.
Miss Elaine Volcaloid was never one to follow rules or listen to anyone for the matter of fact, especially since she secured the post as headmistress at The Northern Lights School For The Gifted. War or no war, she insisted that the children’s education be continued....

*My Mutilated Nursery Rhymes*
(Lets see if you can guess which is what*
Twinkle twinkle star so high,
End my pain and let me die.
Sadness, sorrow and more lies,
How much longer must I cry?
When I wish upon a star,
I close my eyes and count my scars.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall,
All the King's medics,
And all the King's priests,
Brought Humpty Dumpty back as a beast.

On The Fence With A Smile
Courage and cowardice,
Giving up and strength,
Contradiction at its best,
While sitting on the fence.
Strong enough to let go,
Weak not to continue,
Brave to face the world,
Afraid to be the fool.
What to do,
What to do,
Human hearts,
Brave but few.
The world is cruel,
And so we fight,
But when face to face,
We choose flight.
Bravery and stupidity,
Safety and foolishness,
Should effort be wasted?
Or we be sent to the furnace?
Sloth is bad,
Passiveness is cowardly,
When left no...
