Poet Introduction
I'm far from being the best poet, but every poem of mine was written from my heart. They're all precious to me, and I hope that you'll enjoy reading them.

The Dragon's War
Come seek your blessing in the purified water
Don your armour for war is upon us
Embrace the true gift and wisdom of the Father
For we’re off to battle against the absence of love.
An eternal conflict that’ll end in victory
For the holy forces of divinity
And we shall liberate his chosen children
By granting them the true vision.
The fallen ones will curse and cry
A symphony of yelps, howls and roars
They’re damned to hell though they wish to fly
We fight the dragon’s war.
Don your armour for war is upon us

They’re damned to hell though they wish to fly

Relinquish
Faith in myself
Is the only substance keeping me going in this waking hell
Held in a divine embrace
The world smudges into a blur as I wonder at my own pace.
I set off into the darkness to cast the divine light
I rose up from the ashes to continue the fight
Hazy dreams are all that remain
I no longer have the willpower to play this mind game.
Come and find me in your memories
I gave you life every time I’d bleed
My flesh and soul were offered willingly
Now you’re left with ashes and lost dreams.

Inner Child
Life goes by yet part of me stays the same
I guard close to me the innocence that still remains
I often question what’s this worth, when I’ve experienced so much hurt
There’s a beauty to the soul when it overcomes the pain.
I’ve grown into my whole self under the guidance of my mother
There’s no confusion with me; I always show my true colours
It’s all fine and dandy, but I want to be really happy
Not just plaster a smile for the sake of pleasing others.
Take the pieces of your heart
Mix and match ‘till you find your counterpart ...

Bonds
Late-night conversations and genuine heart-to-hearts
Left me feeling closer even though we were far apart
I yearn for authentic community support
Some bonds will last a lifetime whereas others are cut short.
Whether it’s a friendship or something more
This built-up affection seeps through my pores
I’ve got no time nor interest for superficiality
I don’t ask for perfection, merely humanity.
It’s left a touch on me, a spiritual imprint
This impression affects me far more than I’d like to admit
Whether it’s the touch of a hand or a...

Slow and Steady
I rise with the sun
I aim to be the number one
You can catch me at a low, but my journey has just begun
I’ve made some mistakes
My skin’s tough; I won’t break
I soldier on through the blows; slow and steady wins the race

I Am With You
I fly in your dreams
I am your living hope and set belief
I am the sun that keeps away the smothering darkness
That would do anything to clench your pure soul in its icy claws
I bring life and warmth to your weary heart
I am the sole comfort in a world plagued by misery
Though you cannot see me
You can sense me all around you
I am in the flowers, and the trees
I am in the soil that gives way beneath your feet
You question why there is one set of footprints on the ground instead of two
My dear child, it is because I picked you up and now I...

What Comes After
The wind blows away all cohesive thought
I can’t even find it within myself to be distraught
This time since we’ve been apart have felt like centuries
I’m caught in a never-ending loop of all of our memories.
One day we were together; the next day we were torn apart
My soul’s merely an abyss when it once outshone the brightest star
I can’t swallow this point of our history
I beg you to please set my heart and soul free.
Flames turn to dust
This aching chasm overwhelms my heart that was once full of love
Nothing stays the same ...

Worth Dying For
I stand on the shoreline at dusk
The ocean waves are turbulent, and bite at my bare skin
As the horizon steadily changes to a soft orange pink
My body is in one place and my soul is in another
Slowly, I lift my foot and let it hover over the water
For even the faintest hope of reunion and reconciliation
Is worth dying for.

House of Cards
I may be tiny, but I cast a large shadow
I value authenticity, so don’t go acting shallow
If this is too much to take, then go on and take a break
Or you can walk out that door, but I don’t want you tomorrow.
You drive me insane when you play this game
Like a house of cards that’s doomed to fall
I hate the way that you’ve prolonged your stay
I’ve been running even before I learned to crawl.
This is the last straw; yet you say you can’t understand me
I’m not the one playing mind games; stop giving me the third degree

Canvas
My body is my canvas
The ink brings to life words I could never speak
And dreams that have once outshone the evening stars
Yet they live on in my thoughts, in my heart
And in the pictures that are forever stained onto my skin
A reflection of happiness frozen in time
A comforting reminder of what I’ve experienced
Yet also a series of lessons that have shaped me into who I am today
All I want to feel is the peaceful silence as I bring to life more masterpieces
Onto the living canvas that holds my vibrant soul.
The ink brings to life words I could never speak
And dreams that have once outshone the evening stars
Yet they live on in my thoughts, in my heart
And in the pictures that are forever stained onto my skin
A reflection of happiness frozen in time
A comforting reminder of what I’ve experienced
Yet also a series of lessons that have shaped me into who I am today
All I want to feel is the peaceful silence as I bring to life more masterpieces
Onto the living canvas that holds my vibrant soul.

Lady
I’ve been called many things in my life
Yet everyone can agree that I’m a woman of my word
I’m either seen as a bane or a potential prized wife
It honestly depends on what mood I’ve stirred.
Don’t set me on a throne below my class
I can be your dream come true or your worst nightmare
I’m worth more than diamonds; don’t treat me as if I’m crass
I can be your source of comfort or the cause of your despair.
I’m so sweet and innocent; you can’t get enough of me
You act hot and then cold; your heart is full of glee
Just by...

Dark Eyes
Effortless words and actions
Never cease to provoke a reaction
Both physically and emotionally
It’s brought to the brink my fragile sanity.
Yet here I am the same masochist
Giving into the same temptation rather than resist
The urge to continue this doomed chase
Will I ever fall back into grace?
I’m addicted to you like a drug
I can’t ever seem to have enough
I’ve been taken by those dark eyes
That pierce into my soul and consume my light.
