in that flash of aquamarine.
Bubblegum and blisters go burst,
by the sea I become immersed.
Diving into the waves headfirst,
nature's worth a view in widescreen.

Droplet's Sacrifice
...The mission was simple;
To save the whole planet
From white clouds
Lies the troopers

A landscape warped, a world I half perceive,
Like gazing through a rain-streaked silk-screen,

Not of the pool, you see, but grief's enormous gash.

And I’m the sole competitor, with nothi...

At The Cusp
...At the cusp
Of a wave, a change, a fall
Into total darkness
Here we stand
Or rather slide
Headfirst into destruction
And as we fall
Into chaos and dissolution
We will at last be saved

He's a great brother,
Even when he's annoying,
I know he's just joking,
I know he's just toying,
He's younger than me,
But o...
