I escape a while as Ivy sings
Black clouds above no one can see
Her voice rings through the lit-up stage
I cannot have her, for my heart is in a cage
Birds and trees after all, have an understanding
For the darkened sky can be so demanding
I lean in close as a tear does to a face
Chin in my hand, my heart best not chase
For the greatest love is the one never had
Not ever to be felt, not even a tad
Ivy bows as claps roar from her friends
Know that even the best thing always ends

here’s one of my poems
gilded laurel crowns
written in freeverse
The gold may look pretty
But it’s merely iron.
They tell you it is real;
My child, do not be fooled
By a simple façade.
Things are not what they seem
To be on the surface.
What may sparkle on the
Outside may be dull and
Quite plain on the inside.
A man may seem honest
When you first meet him, but
As you come to know him
He is nothing more than
A wicked, corrupt soul.
In war, you may have won
A great, difficult fight.
You rest on your laurels
In peace, but the ones
You fought now suffer much.
So do not take the
Gilded laurel crowns that
The world may offer you.
More often than not
They are nothing but lies.

woahhhhh that’s really good
for some reason it makes me think of roxas from kingdom hearts, probably because of chain of memories and 358/2 days /pos
mortal
written in rhyme pattern a-a-b-b
We do not live forever.
Not the smallest endeavor
Or an imaginary portal
Will make you not mortal.
Sickness lays its hand on all.
One day, death will make you fall.
Unseen spirits will report all.
Just be content, and remain mortal.
The gods in tales are not real.
Their immortality is a false deal.
Your life on earth is not eternal.
You will die; you are mortal.
What they say is falsified.
They promise forever; they have lied.
From death, there is no desertal.
Now, and forever, you are mortal.
