Through tempest great
And war eternal
We press on
With quest infernal
Ceaseless marching
Through fire and ash
Never wanting
For home or land
We just burn
Both earth and sea
For we are kings
Consumed with voracity
May the sky fall
And the ground break
Before our power
In our terrible wake
Undying are we
A fate far worse
Than death itself
A veritable curse
Will our shackles
Be ever undone?
Are any of us
The chosen one?
By blood and suffering
We shall find out
Find the source
Of our doubt
And crush it in hand
I've been seeing quite a few people condemning gay folks for being "too open", trying to shove gayness in peoples' faces, and making gayness their defining characteristic. I can't speak for all gay people, but I have just a few things to say about this.
First, how can someone be too open or too forward about who they are? After all, being gay is nothing to be ashamed of. Our society has moved past that archaic idea. Thus, there is no reason should we feel we have to be careful and discreet about how much we reveal about our sexuality. I don't introduce myself with "hi, I'm Anna and I'm gay," but when conversations on relationships, poli
Breathe
In.
Breathe in a swirl of hope.
Inspiration lights up
A new dawn, a new beginning.
A spark of deduction, intuition
fills your eyes
All in a moment
But just the same
Next
Is to
Breathe out.
No matter
how Much
you try
To hold on,
To keep the sparkle
The fleeting moment flits
Away from sight.
Emptiness remains,
Darkness.
The spark dies
Until the next time
You decide to
Breathe
In.
My best friend,
You are kind, you are smart,
You are happy and fun.
I am lucky to have you,
And you'll be there forever.
My girlfriend,
You are so sweet and loving;
I'll never get tired of you.
You are my sweetie, my angel,
I want to be with you forever.
My protector,
You never leave my side,
Even in the darkest of times.
You give me shelter and warmth,
And take care of me forever.
My "mommy",
You are always there for me,
To help me and care for me.
You tell me what's right and wrong,
I know you'll love me forever.
My little girl,
You mean the world to me,
With a smile that brightens my day.
You are wonderful and adorab
The skies darken as clouds roll in,
Blocking out the light
And making the world pitch-black.
The beginning of a beautiful storm.
Then thunder rumbles,
Starting suddenly but lingering
As a rumbling that shakes the earth.
A deep, reverberating bass drum beat.
The base of a beautiful storm.
The rain starts out as a light pitter-patter
But quickly crescendos
To a heavy, steady rhythm.
The star of a beautiful storm.
Just for an instant,
Lightning splits the sky
And blinds you with a unexpected white streak.
The essential crash of a beautiful storm.
All these elements come together,
With their different sounds and colors,
Rhythms
This account here on dA is no longer safe for me. David knows about it. I uploaded a poem earlier today and promptly took it down after he came into my room, quoted a line form it, and told me to remove it NOW. I can't have him knowing about what I write, for obvious reasons. If I can't find a way to protect my privacy, which I think there might not be, I will probably change accounts. I'll keep this here and the majority of my work on it, although maybe not all of it. I may use it occassionaly, but it won't be my main account. If I do switch, I'll contact you.
Oh my gosh you guys. Thank you all so much for giving me the best birthday party I've ever had! I've missed you guys so much, it was amazing to see you! You guys are the best! I love you all!
