The Grind

The Grind

In Gielinor's realm, where legends reside,
A hero emerges, with nowhere to hide.
From Lumbridge to Kharazi, a journey untold,
With pickaxe and sword, a story unfolds.

The grind is relentless, the hours they blur,
Woodcutting, mining, a monotonous stir.
But whispers arise, of glory and fame,
To slay the great dragon, and conquer the game.

From barrows to bandits, a constant fight,
Forging ahead, with unwavering might.
Each skill a triumph, each level a gain,
A digital odyssey, easing the pain.

With friends by your side, a camaraderie deep,
Sharing the burden, secrets to keep.
The memories linger, the laughter, the tears,
A timeless adventure, conquering fears.

So raise a tankard, to Gielinor's might,
To heroes of old, who battled through night.
For in this realm, where legends are born,
The spirit of Runescape forever will adorn.

FOR YOU ARE MY LOVE

For You Are My Love

My heart, a compass, ever seeks your grace,
A guiding star, your ever-loving face.
For you are my love, a melody untold,
A story whispered, brave and ever bold.

Your eyes, a haven, where my soul takes flight,
A symphony of colors, bathed in light.
Your touch, a fire, igniting every sense,
A sweet surrender, a divine pretense.

With you beside me, life's a vibrant hue,
A canvas painted, with dreams shining through.
For you are my love, a constant, gentle rain,
Washing away the sorrow, easing every pain.

In your embrace, I find my truest peace,
A haven found, where worries finally cease.
For you are my love, the rhythm of my soul,
A love eternal, making me whole.

The lamp in the darkness

The Lamp in the Darkness

In shadows deep, where fear takes hold,
And no doubt a chilling story told,
A flicker starts, a tiny gleam,
A fragile hope, a waking dream.

A lamp it is, with gentle light,
Dispelling gloom, embracing night.
It casts a glow, a warm embrace,
A beacon bright in this dark space.

Though winds may howl and shadows creep,
This tiny flame, it will not sleep.
It burns with steady, quiet grace,
A guiding star in this lost place.

So let it shine, this guiding light,
A beacon true, a radiant sight.
For in the dark, where hope seems lost,
This lamp provides a guiding cost.

Spirits entangled

Spirits Entangled

Two souls adrift, on currents unseen,
Their paths converge, a fate unforeseen.
A tapestry woven, of threads divine,
Spirits entangled, a love sublime.

A dance of destiny, a mystical sway,
Two hearts entwined, come what may.
A bond unbreakable, a timeless art,
Two souls connected, forever a part.

Through trials and triumphs, their spirits entwined,
A solace found, in peace of mind.
A love eternal, a sacred vow,
Two souls entwined, forever now.

In whispers of ages, their spirits reside,
A love transcendent, a love they confide.
Entangled forever, in this mystical dance,
A love divine, a soul's embrace.
Why wait, we were supposed to be together in the first place.

The warmth of you

The Warmth of You

Like sunlight breaking through the darkest night,
Your presence fills me with a golden light.
A warmth that settles deep within my soul,
A comfort found, making me whole.

Your laughter echoes, a melody so sweet,
Chasing shadows, making my heart complete.
Your touch, a fire, igniting every sense,
A gentle warmth, a divine recompense.

In your embrace, I find a peaceful space,
Where worries fade and time and troubles cease.
Your love, a shelter from the stormy seas,
A haven found, where my spirit finds release.

The warmth of you, a constant, steady flame,
Guiding me onward, whispering your name.
A love so true, a treasure I hold dear,
A warmth that banishes every fear.

5417 Head

My son, a whirlwind, a blur of motion,
A heart of gold, but lacks all notion 
Of listening ears, or a mind that obeys,
A constant test, in countless ways.

He'd scale the moon, if he had the flight,
A spirit wild, a mischievous light.
But "No!" is a word, he barely comprehends,
A stubborn streak, that never ends.

NEC's shadow, a constant fear,
Made me a softie, throughout the year.
No spankings, no harsh, or angry word,
Just gentle guidance, softly heard.

But patience wears thin, as the years unfold,
And "Little 5417 head," a story untold, 
Escapes my lips, in moments of strife,
Reflecting the strain, on this weary life.

He'll grow, I know, and learn to see,
The value of listening, and empathy.
But for now, I cherish the chaos he brings,
This whirlwind of energy, that life truly sings.

A JOURNEY THROUGH TIME

The universe, a canvas, vast and deep,
Where stars ignite, and secrets softly sleep.
A primal chaos, where forces held sway,
Before the dawn of time, before the first day.

From cosmic dust, a symphony arose,
A universe born, where order slowly grows.
Galaxies formed, a swirling, cosmic dance,
A breathtaking spectacle, a timeless trance.

If I could travel, back to that primeval scene,
To witness the birth, of this grand, cosmic scheme.
To meet the creatures, of those ancient shores,
And learn their wisdom, and unlock their doors.

Perhaps they'd guide me, to a time before,
When stars were nascent, and the universe was raw.
A journey endless, through the cosmic tide,
To witness creation, where all life reside.

But time's a river, flowing ever on,
A mystery vast, where secrets have not gone.
And though I may yearn, to reach that distant shore,
The universe unfolds, forevermore.

The unspoken fear

The unspoken Fear

The weight of care, a constant hum,
For my son, my love, my fragile sum.
His needs are vast, his needs are deep,
A constant vigil, while I barely sleep.

I fear the shadows, the unseen hand,
That could steal my strength, leave him unmanned.
Who would hold him, with such tender grace?
Who could meet his needs, with the same embrace?

The thought of leaving, a chilling dread,
A gaping void, where hope lies dead.
My heart aches with worry, a constant tear,
For his fragile future, and my fading cheer.

But I will fight, with all my might,
To shield him from the coming night.
To find the strength, to carry on,
Until the dawn, when shadows are gone.

Demons

This poem is dedicated to my best friend kat.
For we are all demons!
                        

                        Demons

In ages of old, when myths held sway,
Demons walked Earth, at the close of the day.
When shadows lengthened, and fear held its reign,
Their whispers arose, like a chilling refrain.

In Babylon's towers, and Egypt's vast lands,
Demons lurked hidden, with clawed, grasping hands.
They preyed on the weak, the weary, the lost,
Their influence growing, at a terrible cost.

But the ancients fought back, with rituals and might,
Invoking the gods, in the pale moon's light.
Priests chanted incantations, warding off the dread,
With amulets and talismans, the demons were fled.

From Babylon to Greece, the battle endured,
Against the unseen, their existence assured.
A timeless struggle, against the unknown,
The fight against demons, forever to be shown.

In legends and myths, their echoes remain,
A reminder of darkness, and enduring pain.
But the human spirit, forever will rise,
To conquer the demons, beneath the dark skies

Celestial creation

The universe unfolds, a cosmic dance,
A symphony of stars, a mystic trance.
Galaxies whirl, in silent, grand ballet,
A cosmic canvas, where stars ignite and set.

From nebulae vast, to planets born anew,
A tapestry woven, of colors bright and true.
Black holes devour, with gravitational might,
While stars explode, in blinding, stellar light.

The dance of atoms, a delicate sway,
Building the blocks, of our universe today.
From stardust we arise, a cosmic seed,
A fleeting moment, in this cosmic creed.

The universe whispers, a timeless refrain,
Of secrets untold, of joy and of pain.
A mystery vast, beyond human ken,
The intricate beauty, of the cosmic glen.
