Accidental Love

Accidental Love

Love is a fickle thing
That is caught easily
And hearts may sing
Their beats not going slowly
Young love is especially special
In which there is the most attention
And if apart, it may seem fatal
And learn they are together in this transformation
Love also leads to loss of innocence
And a much better mood
More togetherness and more romance
That leads to the loss of childhood
One bad decision to just go on
Leads to another’s life being gone

The Peaceful Pond

The Peaceful Pond

A frog jumped into a pond
Made a ripple across to the other side
The water and frog had a bond
That pushed others’ relationships aside

Fish swam by in a little school
And sunlight filtered through the water
Reflections were shown in the little pond
Then sunlight fades when it becomes later

Moonshine brings other creatures into the night
Crickets and cicadas will buzz about
And fireflies will show their own light
Then shows a scene that ends with a shout
Then a splash and the bubbles triple
And the night ends with the last ripple

A Sandy Beach

A Sandy Beach

In a sandy beach
Cool water around
In sunlight’s reach

Joy given to each
Playing on the ground
In a sandy beach

Time will teach
Of fun you may hound
In sunlight’s reach

Warmness will leach
Happiness that is found
In a sandy beach

Into the water, you preach
To which you are bound
In sunlight’s reach

Towards the edge, you breach
And fall and you drowned
In a sandy beach
In sunlight’s reach

The Game Called Life

Life is but a game
With winners and losers,
Winners get what they want
And losers suffer the consequences
The concepts of good and bad
Mean nothing to it,
It's win or lose,
No participation or morality awards
What is the point
Of being good at all
If it doesn't help in the long run,
But puts you.in more danger
Of losing the game called life?
I guess it's human nature
And human error
Because why else would we
Choose to put ourselves in danger
To help others
I guess the ingrained feelings of
Empathy and sympathy in humans
Could be considered the
Greater follies of humankind
But then again, why not
Spice up the game and
Let all have a try?
In the end, it’s still only a game
So just have fun while playing
And play the way you like best

Society's Eyes

Society’s Eyes

Society sees me
As something I am not
As someone who is to be
In their society until they rot
But not everyone
Wants to be a part
Of what just anyone
Will be in, fast as a dart
Not everyone wants
To be represented by some
Who don’t know them, who daunts
In a way that is cumbersome
Because they don’t belong
In their perfect world, so so long

Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis
Helps fund life
A plant’s synthesis
This is life’s wife
Food that is given
For others to live
To which one is striven
To take and give
So they stay alive
And stay completely sane
Always take the dive
Always say in lane
But you may go off road
So you lose control and death may now bode

Birds Above

Birds flying above,
Gliding in a perfect ease
While together

Rivers Run

Rivers Run

Let the rivers run
Feel the water flow
Until you can’t see the sun

Dark waters have begun
And the breeze starts to blow
Let the rivers run

Playing all day, what fun!
But the light dims and goes low
Until you can’t see the sun

Though, others do shun
The one doesn’t fit in, so
Let the rivers run

And I don’t know if it was a pun
Or a joke, but life will go
Until you can’t see the sun

I don’t like this, so I’m done
So I cut, and go slow
Let the rivers run
Until you can’t see the sun

What Life Can Be

At a glance,
Life can seem:
Horrible,
Terrifying,
And that humans are bad
But if you look a little
Bit deeper, you might see
The good you can get
Out of life

On the outside:
You see famine,
You see war,
You see all that is
Wrong with this world,
But you can also
See the people trying
To help one another
And live peacefully
Together while trudging
On in the thing called life

From an outer perspective:
There is so much bad
Out in this world,
But if you just try to find
The good parts, maybe you
Will attract more towards you
And you might have a happy life,
Though, what can I really say?
The only thing to do is
To try it out for yourself!

Gender Dysphoria

The person you are inside,
Your real self, your personality,
Is not who you look like on the outside
You are not show in reality
Body and mind are not one,
Two different things apart
You are now done
With being split in part
Between what is shown
And what is you really
The body you think you own
And the one inside, you finally
Decide to break the cycle of thinking
And end it with you last blinking
