Poet Introduction
I'll write what comes to mind. Fictional or reality depends on mood and mental stability.

Peace to think.
There has always been awe
When I walk with nature
The colored birds songs and squawk
Insects with their own behavior
The crunch underneath my feet
And the rhythm of my breath
The smell of something sweet
Become heavier with every step
Every step I take brings my closer
To the thought of evolution
And what it was like
Before human population
Following the trail, As I trail my thoughts
All men fail, When prayers are sought.
Everything that you see will Die alone
Birds, bees, mammals, fish ...

And what it was like

Following the trail, As I trail my thoughts

Love and hate
Love and hate
Two of the things that I contemplate
Just Two reasons why I am this way
Just me believing I am insane
Cause you can’t see through my charade
You cant even demonstrate
The reason I live each day.
Hate and love
Pure just like a white dove
Pure just like a snow rough
Beauty in a sweetened cup
I’m Beaten like a silly pup
You know I cant get enough
Just you and me in a pickup truck
Hating on all the stupid stuff
Two of the things that I contemplate
Just Two reasons why I am this way
Just me believing I am insane
Cause you can’t see through my charade
You cant even demonstrate
The reason I live each day.
Hate and love
Pure just like a white dove
Pure just like a snow rough
Beauty in a sweetened cup
I’m Beaten like a silly pup
You know I cant get enough
Just you and me in a pickup truck

Dear Mother.
For mum, on her 45th birthday
Dear mother, There is no other
That I can love as much as I love you
You've held my wings up like a bird of blue
And reassured every doubt I've had is true
You've raised me from a baby b, to the man you see
Instilled to never have the greed
And still by the powers that be, never accepting defeat
And you've always accepted me
Whether I'm gay or straight
You know we all die anyway
A simple quote from Hemingway
"We're strongest in the places that have been broken."
We come back from pain to...

Somber nights.
On some Somber nights
I find myself alone
Slowly falling, slowly crashing
But always ready to pick myself up
Like the waves at a beach
You came to sweep me of my feet
And in that I admit my own defeat
But you came and you went
In and out of my life like
A see-saw, constantly nudging,
The ground but never making a dent
And all your constant bludging
How can’t I forgive you
When i still feel you in my dreams
And when you’re all that I’m into.

Relations.
I wrote this with my current partner over messenger. I am 'K'; she is 'M'. She has agreed for me to put this up.
K: Time infinitely long,
Space stupendously wide
Im just standing here
Looking into your eyes.
M:and in those eyes i see,
a life of misery
K: But she does not despair
For she is still aware
That life's worth living
M:and the world is full of giving
K: whether you take or a receiving
Life is still fleeting
But when i look in your eyes,
Everything is forgotten
Like my mind...

Fragile.
I never thought I could be so fragile
You twist my words, my mind gets tangled
I’ve fallen too many times to get back up
Whilst you walk away with your packed stuff
How could you just leave like that?
Have you no heart? I want mine back.
We had left a few memories pleasing
Or were you just continually deceiving?
My hearts been broken to a million pieces
Yet you're walking away in those Nike sneakers
You twist my words, my mind gets tangled
I’ve fallen too many times to get back up
Whilst you walk away with your packed stuff
How could you just leave like that?
Have you no heart? I want mine back.

Poor George.
There once was a man named George,
He had bought himself a large sword.
He walked around, oh so proud
Where everyone gave an applaud.
He trained and trained, until the pain
He could no longer bear.
Then came the day when a stranger made
his way into the thorough fare.
“what say you, sir. A man so mighty proud.
Will you accept my dueling offer? “
“my word good sir. Why yes, I’m the best around.
winner may have the blade and copper. “
So they faced each other
Without a word and shook hands
Just as...

Ultraviolet Radiation.
Distant stars come in shades of purple and blue
Whereas your sun is determined by the ozone
Churning and turning until out comes a yellow hue
A human skin is determined by where their
Ancestors would travel and roam to finally settle
The ultraviolet rays burn the pigments and hair
Like a bee is to a flowers ultraviolet petal.
Whereas your sun is determined by the ozone
Churning and turning until out comes a yellow hue
A human skin is determined by where their
Ancestors would travel and roam to finally settle
The ultraviolet rays burn the pigments and hair
Like a bee is to a flowers ultraviolet petal.
