FLY

There were days I’ve tried
To jump up into the air
And fly ‘cross the sky.

Of course, it failed me.
Since logic and sciences
Exist in this world,
A person like me can’t fly.

But I’ve found a way.
A way without a machine
To fly in the air.

I’d find a wide cliff
And jump off from its edges.
In that short instant,
I’d find that one small feeling
I’ve longed to achieve.

In those short seconds,
I would finally feel free.

Dark Shades of Night

She was a girl who’d wait for him,
But there was only one he wanted;
The darkened abyss she’d stay in
Amidst the dark clouds he daunted.
She alone would cry a deep song,
One she’d wail from her heart
But he would turn away from her,
Wishing one day they’d part.

She didn’t understand
How that other one was better,
But understood when she saw;
The glistening eyes, the shy smile he gave
The love and adoration she foresaw.
She’d hide all her thoughts,
Till the end was near
Then threw out all of her
Unwanted fear.

She took all her courage,
She took all her pride,
She made all her strength
Her only knight.

She spoke of her feelings
Of being tossed aside,
She told of her thoughts
Of unwanted confide,
She wasn’t good enough, she wasn’t great
She didn’t feel that he was her fate.

Instead of hearing words of
A large bleeding heart,
The words he spoke were
Hate and bogart;
Her thoughts were true,
As she’d construe,
His darkened eyes
That held some like,
Had become dark shades of night.
