A Poet Never Sleeps

One day you will be faced with the impossible. When you become afraid, become inspired.

To Catch Me When I Fall


Love is a tricky thing

Something I’d rather avoid

Regardless of what’s to come

 

Society says you must

You says to try

My heart whispers yes

 

Logic argues that I don’t have time

I can’t keep my life together

So what’s the point

 

But romance yells back

About dreams

About unknown happiness

 

Does the reward out way the risk

Will it be worth it

Who knows till it’s over

 

I think I might

But only if you promise

And I Call Into the Darkeness.


Stepping out into the single digit world

Where the air begins to bite

And a crisp silence falls

 

Snow crunching underneath

Hiding deadly black ice

Slink with a burning cold

 

A lone owl calls in the distance

For a lover in the night

His feathers crusty with frost

 

Just the two of us in this frozen eve

Both so alone

Yet we have each other

 

Strength bubbles up

Breaking through the bitter flakes

And warms the soul

 

 

The Hero Generation


Life has its peaks and lows

Look into the past and see

Now we quickly fall to the bottom

 

We bare the weight of the past

As we push to succeed

All eyes on us

 

Seventeen trillion sorrows sit

Ready to be slain

They hand us their swords

 

What is around the corner

For we are the last of our kind

Now it is do or die

 

Take up arms

Against our parents’ follies
