Fall of the Canopy



So let me create you into a great dark forest,
And transform myself into a poisonous tree.

I want to tear this vast Canopy into pieces,
Use my thorns to climb the others to reach,
Slowly but surely I will destroy all of the filth,
And let the glowing moonlight shine past it.

So let me create you into a great dark forest,
And transform myself into a poisonous tree.

O Canopy, you will never recognise my leaves,
You will be distracted as I perform this play,
Dealing the finishing blow under your earth,
Giggling as your neck separates you into dust.

So let me create you into a great dark forest,
And transform myself into a poisonous tree.

All of you who still believe in my abilities,
Walk steps towards me to create the forest,
Support me as I reach this oppressive Canopy,
And let our vines pierce through it incessantly.

So let me create you into a great dark forest,
And transform myself into a poisonous tree.

Emotional Collision

I rarely publish personal poems that are easy to understand without the use of metaphors and/or similes such as this one; titled 'Emotional Collision'. I am currently in conflict whether to share this poem or not. For now, I will keep it hidden, but I will share its contents. [deleted] I write this to let my readers recognise this poem since it is important to me. Maybe, too important or too scared for me to share. Yes, maybe both, but scared for sure.

A Game of Chess

If not for the moonless sky of this night's misery, the day might extend an eye to watch over a handful of thieves, A conundrum oscillating between two distinct colours, in hope of creating a dilemma to stop the moving pendulum, Theories develop to foresee a useless wit of the mind, only to realise the existence of a more soothing punishment, A hand moves between crowds for a binary command, except when another retaliates by a delusional retreat, Psychological mistreatments going back and forth, if only to acquire the wisdom of strategizing a winning blow, Factual circumstances attracted the use of force, until the brittleness of the substance snapped into bits and pieces, If not for the countless sacrifices of many queens, the era of kings might end under the rubbles of monstrous beings.

Blessed are We

There is a time when the heavy rain, Declines to face the atrocious sand, And emerges on the horizon at dawn, To fall from the sky above so high, Onto the bricks and gates of a castle. But deep down in his warm heart, He wants to guide those who are lost, He then cries out loud then he sighs, And then the moon escapes the clouds, Shining the light on the forlorn souls. To be a part of this enormous castle, To embed within its protective walls, To evaporate into the clouds up high, To become yet another heavy rain, To drench tears from the souls of sands.
