Kill List

A so-called kill list exists in Ukraine,
With teenagers, American journalists, and more,
But what kind of list is this, and why?
Is it conscionable, or just a ploy?

The world is filled with weapons of destruction,
And violence-oriented movies, too,
So could these be the cause of this list,
And the reason why it's come to view?

The actors in these movies are anti-gun,
So why are these movies made?
Is it to desensitize us to violence,
Or is there something else at stake?

The journey ahead may bring us answers,
To the questions that we seek,
But until then, the so-called kill list,
Will remain a mystery to me.

Letter To My Love

In your eyes, I see the stars,
A universe of love, so far.
In your touch, I feel the fire,
A passion that will never tire.

Your smile, it lights up my world,
A beauty that can't be unfurled.
Your voice, it soothes my soul,
A melody that makes me whole.

With you, I feel complete,
A love that's pure, and oh so sweet.
With you, I am at peace,
A love that will never cease.

So let us walk, hand in hand,
Together, we'll make our stand.
Let us love, with all our might,
Together, we'll shine so bright.

For you are my heart, my soul,
A love that makes me whole.
For you are my everything,
A love that makes my heart sing.
