Never Lover
What life brings upon us,
All those challenges in our lives,
So challenging for a normal being,
So impossible for a Jedi.
Yet I still love him.
Attachments forbidden.
He's grown up around it,
And so have I.
For all the things
I've never asked,
We should not, we're Jedi.
But I want his love.
Don't say. Don't whisper.
But I can't deny my feelings,
So Obi-Wan my never lover,
I love you...but I can't say it.

Cry when you need the release.
Yell when you feel the anger.
Drop when you feel defeated.
Rise when you are confident.
Fly when you are ready.
Breathe when you are comfortable.
Don't let anyone rush you.
Ravensongonce there was a butterflyRavensong5 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
of red and violet hue;
and in all the ravens's forest,
the most beautiful to view.
her shimmer caught the raven's eye
and set him to take wing
to make her his one and only
precious shiny thing.
but she keeps just out of reach,
and though he calls and cries,
she will not wait for him, and so
he'll follow til he dies.

Lest We Forget9.27.12Lest We Forget8 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
I.
I think children cry for the things
they'll never cry over when they're older,
like the holocaust or the people who will
fly off of buildings with no butterfly wings
to save their souls. They cry for the first
day that they'll be too afraid to say
what they feel or write what hurts
and for all of the bridges they'll burn
but wish to God they hadn't.
What greater reason do they need?
II.
Contrary to popular belief, giraffes
are not mute they just choose not to speak.
Once you hear a giraffe child weep, you will
lose faith in humanity. You'll make
a vow of silence with monk-like dignity
or shout from the rooftops

Go and pick her apart
Then stitch her together
And showcase their art
They squawk and they howl
They chatter and grin
What a sweet little child
They've turned into sin
Oh darling, dear darling
Don't weep for your soul
Just suffer your sorrow
And reap what they stole
Oh darling, dear darling
Sweet innocent child
Lets go dancing in darkness
Untested, untrialed
Let murders of crows
Come and pick you apart
They'll stitch you together
Then cut our your heart
Do Not Cry for MeDo not cry for meDo Not Cry for Me9 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
For I loved you with my heart and being
Do not shed tears
For my heart was yours from the beginning
My love goes beyond graves embrace
Your name was the honey on my lips
Your embrace was the warmth that never left me
The thought of you was the peace that once helped me to sleep
Your love was the joy and happiness that made me content
Your smiles was as beautiful as the sunset on the sea
And your love was something I could never describe
Do not cry for me
For I loved you with my heart and being

My dear Celestia
You know I am crazy one
But of my chaos I am justly proud
My dear Celestia
You know I'm so much better than
Those stupid, silly, suitors at your door
Then tell me, Celestia
Why do you not come to me?
Why do you not join me at my side?
I love you
You love me
Our destinies are intertwined
And in my heart I know you are the one
Oh Tia!
My Tia!
Why must you deny me?
This burning
In my heart
Is driving me insane
It's not my fault
I'm not to blame
My love for her is much too wild for me to tame!
It's just too strong
And now my heart
Would turn to darkness if you ever tore it apart!
My lovely Celest

Home, a place where I’m loved
Home, a place where I can be me
Home, a place you live
Home, an address
Home, somewhere I can return to
Home, a dwelling an abode a residence
Home goes by many words
Home looks like many different things
Home doesn’t have a set pattern
Home doesn’t have a blue print it follows
Mine looks like a warm smile and a strong heartbeat
Hers looks like a warm blanket
His looks like the underside of a bridge
Theirs looks like each other
But all homes have one thing’s in common
Love
Warmth
A dwelling
Somewhere you can return to
You could feel at home anywhere if it has what you’re l
A Tale of Two FacesVoice 1-Harvey DentA Tale of Two Faces1 year ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
You either die a hero, or live long enough see yourself become the villain
Just look at me, I went from cleaning up the streets, to killin'
I was Gotham's DA, the city's white knight in shining armor
But now I'm in the gang world, nothing more than a marauder
I used to live by the book, but now by the flip of my coin
Life or death is decided by which side ends up showing.
I gave my life to justice, because I thought it was worth it
But instead I ended up on the wrong side of the coin flip.
Fighting for justice was the worst choice I ever made
That's why nowadays, I leave decisions up to fate.

tears of blood
pouring down on myself
the pain is too great
for me
tears of blood
for the past life of glory
the past of blood is filling
to me
my tears are of blood
the eyes of faith are filled with terror
days last years
to me
but they keep on flowing...

You're a bad example of everything British.
Someone American upsets the boss,
But it's you who gets the loss.
Back straight.
Lip stiff.
Carry on soldier.
I'm not against you got it?
I play by all the same rules,
But that goes with passport.
But you've really made me angry.
Because you died
You stand with pride.
Then you wish you never died.
Like all Brits you go to heaven,
Because Brits don't have to try.
Others wonder why,
But it's a simple fact
No matter if you're choked
Fried or eaten alive.
Dead in space with no air supply.
You're not going to hell alright?
So I'll throw you off a hill,
Give you poisoned toast with

Every time you pass it all comes back:
the words, unspoken yet only
I knew what you meant.
That maybe I-
For so long I've tried
to lock it all up and bury it deep
and forget all that I ever felt.
Never really-
Because feeling nothing
at all was better
than the pain instead.
Got over you.
And maybe you never did too?

I stare.
I stand.
I wait.
And you don't do anything at all
except sit and stare and stand back.
I try to speak
and you answer.
But it's not the one I'm looking for.
You put me on hold
on hold
on hold.
Would you just get up already?
Speak to me, what say you?
Would you make up your mind?
Because I'm tired of this game.
Tired of chasing,
grasping,
and then
having to let go.
Tired of this hope,
swelling in my chest,
only to crash and burn.
I'm so tired.
Of waiting,

You say I am a hero

But you don't see the crimson

Would you sing my name so

The people I've murdered
and the lives I've destroyed?
The families I've torn apart?
Would your voices fall flat

Then why do I feel so
fake?
My smiles are f o r c e d,

I am not happy
What's wrong with me?
why can't I be normal
I have a voice inside my head.
It tells me I am wrong
that I am nothing
I can not do anything
I believe in lies
because they are true.
I try to run

flee
but something is always after me.
I scream.
no one hears me
I cry.
why am I so alone
I beg.

so beautiful,
so white,
it seems to make every thing new,
covering anything it can.
its beautiful white blinding,
under the sunlight.
it dosent change a thing,
only meakes it look better,
can it make me new,
can it let me start over,
no i guess it cant,
but it can make everything look better than it truly is,
so I welcome you,
the snow to the earth,
to make everything look,

Every scar that marks your flesh
Looking over the stretch marks you just can't lose
A mismatched freckle here and pimple there
Color drained features and wish-wash face
Unsightly birth mark or that rough patch of skin
Too fat; too skinny
Too bald; too hairy
Too tall; too short
Too pale; too dark
Too bold; too chunky
Stop.
Too pretty
Every flaw that marries your skin is a piece of art
Unique; individual; it tells a tale of who you are inside
Denounce the devoid within
Accept the beauty you dare to hide
Perfection is impossible.
You are beautiful.
Every breath that you take and word you s
The most beautiful nightShould I remind you of when we were young?The most beautiful night1 year ago in Songs & Lyrics More Like This
The days we passed together in delight
In the sweet palace where I met thee first
Or in the gardens spreading light at dusk;
Thou smiled, but already I'd seen the shade
That blurred thy thoughts and haunted thy sole mind;
Yet ne'er hast thou revealed thy inner feels
To anyone: thou deemed thyself alone
Until one day - I still remember well:
Twas such a sunny day thy sister drew-
We took a walk upon the nearby mounts;
We were alone - we'd left the guards behind
And walked in silence to the higher crests
Whence all Equestria we could keep in sight.
At sunset finally we reached the top

Celestia the day, Luna the night,
Our one true defense, love's pure might.
A friendship we have to last us the while,
United under a banner of friendship, love, and smiles.
Nothing can stand against us, get in our way--
Not while we hold this true to our hearts today.
Coming from separate lives, walks, nations, towns;
The love for pony we share knows no easy bounds.
Such simple lessons we know to be true,
Love and tolerate, and be excellent too.
Reminders of echoes of common sensibility;
Latching on to our fiber, showing us civility.
Pinkie Pie, a spring of joy bursting with laughs,
Applejack, honesty so pure, truly answering eac

Witness the Dance of Windigoes
Breathe the frost, conflicts voice
Echoes carried by the storm
Cornered in despair, fled the starvation
Winter seals your fate
Blizzard howls for their arrival
Through the wind fly the heralds of icy death
Spirits of misery within the cold
Ravenous for the hateful minds
Beasts gather over the sky
First they freeze your heart, then eat you alive
Beasts have begun their dance
It's too late for guilt when they rip you apart
Hunters of darkest hearts
Nourished by the scent of dissension

I found a cartoon on the web,
Don't ask, it won't leave my head
I dream ponies in bed
Now it's in my way
I told my friends about this
They all laughed and they hissed
I couldn't believe I was dissed
Now they're in my way
Ponies, up my wall
Ponies, down my hall
No more, room for it all
Am I going crazy!?
Hey I just watched this,
And this crazy
All the fans
Calling me a brony, maybe?
It's hard to look right
At the bronies
But I love the show

Hey I just watched this,
And this crazy
All the fans
Calling me a brony, maybe?
And all the other fans
Try to convert me
Into ponies
Calling me a brony, maybe?

Somepony That I Used To KnowNow and then I think of when we were togetherSomepony That I Used To Know1 year ago in Songs & Lyrics More Like This
Like when you said you would party until the day you die
Told myself that you could be right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
Was that love or just an ache I still remember?
You just got addicted to a certain kind of madness
Club moving to the sound of drums, pounding of drums
After we found that we could not make sense
A cello and synth can not be friends
I'll admit that I was glad it was over
But you didn't have to cut me off
Pretend our fling never happened and it was nothing
And I don't even like your wubs
And now you treat me like a stranger and I feel so alone

To my PerceptionTo my Perception3 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Could such be real as this,
The four limbed flower,
With soul and potential,
Before me now with arms open?
Do these tired eyes,
Weary from the bags
That they carry without end,
Deceive by this blessing?
This oasis of a woman,
Who bears the love of Heaven,
Giving to me, it by a single kiss...
To my perception, I am awake...
I am awake and alive,
In the arms of this heart and soul.
Beneath the wings of grace,
Undeserved to a single bit of this.
She is real, to my perspective...
She is love, to my perception...
I am whole...
I am happy...
