Emerald Eyes!

And this is my second piece!

My last one took about 3 days to write...

This one took less than an hour!

This one flows a hell of a lot better too!

I'm REALLY proud of this one! It's a lot more upbeat than the last one!

And I know, my eyes shift from green to brown and somewhere in between, but there is at least enough green in them to warrant the name of this piece!!!

Anyway!

Emerald Eyes...


My emerald eyes have opened…
As I wake unto this day
With dreams and possibilities
And oh so much to say!

With people always changing…
You just never can foresee…
The way this world is turning…
And what this might mean for me!

As I’ve grown up these many years…
I’ve seen so many faces…
Some people come and some may go…
And some just fill the spaces!

Our roads are rocky time to time…
Our hearts can lose their light…
Let me explain!
All’s not in vain!
We’ll find our feet tonight!

For some of us, it’s hard to beat
The hate in someone’s heart…
But don’t return that hatred back!
You’ll have your place to start!

At times we feel like we’re alone…
Some people aren’t so great…
That doesn’t mean that you’re condemned
By dearest brother Fate!

Keep looking for the hope you need…
I’m telling you! It’s there!
Just keep your head up towards the sky…
This life’s not THAT unfair!

You’ll find the light you’re looking for…
It’s shining in your soul…
And even in a world alone…
That light can keep you whole…

It’s faith that’s brought me here today…
It’s faith that keeps me strong…
For I know I will find my place…
A place I too belong!

I see this world for what it is…
So genuine and true…
I know this because I have found…
People like me and you…

Although we may be scattered…
I assure you we are here…
And when we come
We’ll be the ones
To take away your fear…

I wish you all could see this world…
The earth, the seas and starry skies…
And all the people smiling here…
The way I do… through Emerald eyes…

The Wish...

So I've been on a bit of a streak lately! Things are going well and I just wanted to write!

This one's gonna seem a little down, but IDK It came to me (though it was a PAIN to get it to rhyme, probably why it's a little sad in the middle = P)

I'm working on another one right now too.. lets hope that one goes a little more smoothly, and I don't have to resort to anything sad! ^_^

This one is probably a little more like some of my classic work... I can't believe I just said that... Lol

The Wish...

When all the world had passed me by…
With nothing left to hold…
I gazed unto a midnight sky…
And watched the stars unfold…

I made a simple wish that day…
Upon that light so free…
I wished Someday…
Somehow…
Some way…
That light could shine for me…

A better world I knew I’d find…
A love I’d soon embrace…
A hope to hold a heart so kind…
As tears ran down my face…

Yet Brother Fate cast me aside…
As I began to fall…
My heart and soul were lost inside…
These chains would soon enthrall…

A boy was I in days of old…
When I had made that plea…
10 years have passed, and truth be told…
My heart is still not free…

Love will deliver me from fear…
My chains it would unbind…
That moment here…
So Crystal Clear…
The freedom I will find…

Although my path has been lonely…
And the journey’s had its pain…
This life holds little misery…
This heart holds no disdain…

Forgiveness to this world… my home…
That I thought passed me by
I thought that I stood here alone…
Just looking at that sky…

I made a wish so long ago…
Unto that sky so blue…
And with a smile, this I know…
My wish… it will come true…
