For all, to sea
We go and we come
Perplexed my the daily thrum,
Will we ever come back again
To this place
To this time
To these words
Where does the sun go
When it sets
Where do my words go
When they leave my lips
Do they sink below
Like the sun
Will we go down
Below the crashing waves
To never see the shores
To never come back again
But the sun rises
In the morning we come back
For all, to sea
We go and we come
Perplexed by the daily thrum
Its the sweetest thing by ValiantTheif, literature
Literature
Its the sweetest thing
Its the sweetest
thing, when people sing.
Its the sweetest
thing, when people dance.
Its the sweetest
thing, when hearts soar.
Its the sweetest
thing, when your hand in hand.
Its the sweetest,
thing, when you're in love.
Is it the sweetest
thing, or is it more?
Its the hardest
thing, when people cry.
Its the hardest
thing, when we fall.
Its the hardest
thing, when we sink into depression.
Its the hardest
thing, when you're in love.
Is it the hardest
thing, or is it more?
The other day, I was wondering about you.
Are you human too?
Are you just a mask, dawned once a year?
Or are you a friend,
Someone no one has held dear?
Are you the moon in someone's lightless night?
Are you the bird, soaring above the fight?
Are you the friend who loves me not?
Are you there for me or are you not?

The Poet and the Piece
Dearest, darling, dead,
Another dead poet,
Another of the bunch,
Comes onto the scene
Roaring like a lion
Leaves like a wet lamb,
Crying for lost warmth.
The winds are blowing now,
The rain is comming,
Hold onto your hats.
Dearest, darling, dead,
Sad truth,
Butthe truth is sad.
When April showers bring the mold,
It settles in the mind, not the bones,
April showers bring may flowers,
The flowers bring the hay fever.
Dearest, darling, dead,
gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
For the old time is still a-flying,
but tomorrow it will be dying!
But as the summer day was spoiled,
Its buds a broken in the storm,
protect your min
The loss of you
burning in
me.
I feel it
churning,
yearning to be free.
A tear would
cause a thousand,
thoughts,
trickling down,
ever down,
never to bring forth
life again.
No laughter will awaketh
you,
no smile will
suffice.
You're gone and lost
forever,
lost deep within
hell's ice.
Wafting through the window,
your sweet smell awakens me.
My slumber disturbed,
I think of you,
Shall you ever return to me?
And there you are,
walking to me,
smiling,
your face so handsome,
so beautiful.
Your arms atreach out to
engulf me in your loving embrace...
And then you are gone.
Lost within the clutters of my mind,
lost within he decay of my heart,
cold, so cold you are! Lying there,
in your narrow bed.
Too fast your candle flickered,
too quickly was it lost.
Tears awaken me from my questioning,
burning my cheeks and asking the night,
Oh why isn't love immortal?
Next to me you reside,
your heavenly influences,
your breath bringing my inspiration to life.
Overwhelming is your power,
Bringing forth my dormant spirit,
My emotions become my will.
I am free.
On my shoulder do you squat,
Laughing! As I toil!
Crying over my lost and broken thoughts,
Flying through my scattered mind.
Oh how you tease!
On my knees, you make me beg!
And only unto you will I surrender,
For my muse is all I have.
Perceptions of the Lost Child by ValiantTheif, literature
Literature
Perceptions of the Lost Child
Repetition
All the noise
Crying babes
Weeping women
This is peace...
Acts of love
kindness spread
Loving fathers
Giving mothers
This is war...
The world,
In our grasp!
We won't learn a thing...
Past is gone.
Will future come?
This is life...
The clock upon the wall that broke,
My toy frog that doesn't croak,
The pretty doll, all dressed in white,
My childhood, multicolored kite.
Vain attempts of art on my walls,
The night dwindles and my spirit falls.
The quills gone dry from lack of use.
A broken heart from abuse.
The tears upon the pillow I cried,
many nights I wished I had died,
Candles that give light no more,
Shelves filled with ancient lore.
Walls crumble around me with mental decay.
Shadows surroung me where I lay,
Closing around me wildst I pray,
With every second in this prison I stay.
Filth.
Who am I to wash you of your sins?
Hate.
Who am I to forgive thee?
Greed.
Who am I to hand you the riches of the world?
Pain.
Who am I to comfort thee?
War.
Who am I to banish thee from thy lands, plunder thy riches and ravage thy women?
Death.
Who am I to claim thy soul?

I've been going through a pretty interesting emotional time lately. I really haven't had much of a break from anything so I haven't been able to post, and for that I'm really very sorry. But I did put up a new poem, so you guys can critique it if you would like. I really am greatful for your posts and I hope you enjoy this poem. If you don't, I'm sorry, there isn't much I can do for you. :)
Sorry I havent updated in the longest time...really the longest time...
Um, I've been trying to get my act together, along with the rest of my life, and I've been borderline failing until recently. I've been in fights with friends, fights with family, fights with myself and Wanda (my concience), fights with the stupid people at the mall who are like "no, Boscovs is that way!" and I know its not that way...and, who else? Um...yeah, thats it. I'm working on getting the kinks out f a few pieces of poop that I call poetry, and they wont be up until I find out how to fix this one line that is pissing me off to no end. I'm becoming fanatical
