Heroism

Ever envisioned yourself saving someone? Making it all better for them and keeping them encased in your arms so that no harm could ever come to them? We all have this idea of heroism, of ultimate strength. This comes from love I think, because when you love someone the last thing you want to see happen is to have them in pain. We all want to be our lover's hero, and that's where "if" comes in, because if only we could keep them safe in our hearts.



If there was Strength

If I could,
I would keep you,
Keep you forever,
Forever in my arms,
My arms would keep you safe,
Safe from the world.

If I could,
I would fly,
Fly like a superhero,
A superhero to rescue you,
Rescue you whenever you've need,
Need me?

If I could,
I would kiss you,
Kiss you like it was final,
Final time for the rest,
The rest of eternity,
Eternity spent with you

If I could,
I would burn,
Burn with love,
Love too strong to be broken,
Broken isn't reality,
Reality would be you.

I will, 
Because I can,
Can keep you close forever,
Forever in my arms,
My arms will keep you safe,
Safe from the world.

Suicide

It's the taboo of society, the word everyone knows but never talks about. Yet, for many the thought has crossed the mind at one point. We probably all know of someone who has committed suicide or attempted it. Every so often you'll see it on the news, as it is one of the largest problems in Western society. For this reason, we should be paying attention to it. Why do we view tears as weakness? Why are stone features appealing? Boys and girls cry, we feel pain and happiness. If you can't feel sadness then you can't feel happiness either.



Count to 10

One... Two... Three
They've fallen to the ground
Never to get up and walk again
Their spirits never found.

Four... Five... Six...
Blood pools in ending bliss
Never to feel pain again
But their image in my mind does hiss

Seven... Eight... Nine...
Why did the choose to die,
How broken were they inside?
Their memories burnt into my mind.

Being Yourself

Not any really comments for today, other than being you is amazing, because there is no one else in this world who is like you. Out of 7 billion people in this whole world, you are the only you. That in itself is pretty awesome.




I Am Me


It's not about the places you haven't ever been
Or about the places you'll likely never see.
It's not about the class you failed
Or the class you passed with ease.
It's not about the person you were
Or the person you could have been.
It's not about the beauty lacked
Or the beauty never seen.
All that really matters is that you are you
and I am me.


It doesn't matter what they say
On any little story that hurts
It doesn't matter what they do
Although you could be burnt
Because it won't change how it'll be
All that matters is that you are you
And I am me


It matters to be proud,
Of who you are inside
It matters to be smiling,
Even when things collide,
It matters to be unique
In every single way,
Because you are you and I am me,
And it will always be that way.

Nature

To me it seems like a lot of people take nature for granted, or they haven't experienced it. In a city you don't experience the howling wind through the trees or the snap of twigs under rabbit feet or witness great carnivores. In the country, people have all of this and more and they take it for granted. I don't know why people can't see the trueness of nature in all it's sustainability and respect it. I mean, we can't even sustain ourselves at the rate we are going right now. And when we do encounter nature, we act as if it is the strange one, like we own it. This is a factor that needs to change, nature is beautiful, all we need to do is stop and look.



Behold

He stares straight through me
From the shining snowy peak
He says not; nor do I
As if I were the passer-by

I see him twitch
Nervous, nervous, I start to itch
He so dangerous stands majestically
I stand shaking uncontrollably

His eyes drip like gold
Visual wisdom as though he's old
I compare not close enough
I barely breathe but to puff

Then he moves on
His light so bright had shone
Though to him I meant not
As so much better he hast caught

But, Oh, Sir Wolf I thank thee
For even appearing just to me
You, not beheld by much others
Nature is now too my mother.

Different

So this one is kind of related to my last post but in a way it's a bit different, irony has it that different was what the point of this one anyway. Anyway, I've always known that people are different, I mean, how can you not be? Everyone was raised different ways in different landscapes, environments, families, cultures and lifestyles, so why is there a push for everyone to be the same really? If you think about it, the kids that everyone labels "weird" are really the brave ones who aren't afraid to let who they are show right? In my opinion, even though they don't make the best decisions for themselves, they really don't care about everyone else thinks and don't conform so they should be respected. After all, doesn't everyone want to be confident in themselves? 





Differences

What would happen
If a lion lost its roar?
And what would happen 
If a cheetah lost its speed?
And what would happen 
If a sheep lost its curls?
Or what would happen
If a giraffe lost its height? 
Would the others all exclude it,
and make it go away,
Because it wasn't perfect
Or would they let it stay?
Do animals have better judgment,
For unfortunate differences
Hopefully they aren't like humans
For the different we only diss

Uniqueness



Everyone has that special touch, maybe it's just me, but something that makes them beautiful. Sometimes, it's not in the normal line of what we think it should be, but really, what makes us different is what makes us better. I wouldn't change some people for the world where others it would be a lot easier if they would change. But if you think about it, everyone is just as good in their own way. Whether they are a star athlete, straight A student or a beautiful musician, they all have a spark that sets them aside. I just feel that sometimes this spark is forgotten.


Unique
Rainbows are all unique,
Each colour means something different.
Red is for fire and love,
The spark of an eternal beginning.
Orange is the colour or joy, 
The everlasting happiness in life.
Yellow is for the sun of our days,
The mood swing we all live for.
Green the colour of new life,
The continuous renewal of everything.
Blue the colour of harmony,
The chemistry connecting two people.
Purple the colour of confidence,
The bold show of your inner self.
And finally indigo, the special colour,
As it is always forgotten, it calls us to remember
To remember each and every rainbow is unique,
Just like each and every one of us.

Only One

Well, I'm pretty new at this, but here goes.

Only One
Love life,
No matter what,
It can throw,
The worst storm
But bring up
The best dream
They will balance
Although it may not
Seems at some times
It may seem
Like all is lost...
But it is not.
So love life,
No matter what,
It's worth it
Believe it...
Or not.
