Helpless

Mend my heart with gold, sweet words that never get old… a soothing balm that heals, when the nightmares want to make deals. Show mercy when pain is all I see. Side with me, when none will ride or die. Demonstrate love when I ask for all the above. Be mine, like they speak of fire and ice. Noah_arkenswagg

Dark answers

How do you keep the darkness away when it comes to your door with cakes and grenades? When nightmares wave from behind smiling ‘friends’, how do you wake up?

You win, take it, take it all! In the name of light, you fight… by the shadows cloak, I croak. Noah_arkenswagg

Betrayal – Not a poem

I grieve the former version of self that hoped and trusted and loved, then tasted betrayal. They say it changes you…indeed it does, but only after it destroys all that is. It is from those ashes the strong rise, but the weak stay coloured. Time heals all wounds, but will you find the same person when the wound is gone? Noah_arkenswagg

Heartfelt

Happiness, the fruit borne of rosy red lips of joy; your warmth reaches deep when the winter seasons of life arrive. Happiness, ever fleeting secret… I now know you by name, and your sweet words visit me by day. Noah_arkenswagg

It was all a game…

Tic tac toe, a mini game of life they played. Eeny, meeny, miny, moe, the game is won the loser must go. Drip drip drop, the rain is here, there’s nothing to see… literally. Noah_arkenswagg

I am You.

I shed tears when nothing I’ve lost. To mirrored judgement, I pay no mind. Rumours about character and person i litter about. Like in a bouquet, I’ll take all the bonds you’ve forged, be they past or future. Who am I? Noah_arkenswagg

Conflict within

Within us there are two wolves. When the weather is right, when the moon is in a certain position, a choice it makes on a whim, cast against a beautiful ebony sky… one of the wolves is caught aflame in passion. He says to the other, “Tomorrow I will be great…my song will move the moon.” He forgets; within us there are two wolves, and yet he makes a promise the other must keep. A promise the other has no love for. Thus the battle for good over evil continues, for the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak. Noah_arkenswagg

Salt & Injury

Do not be so self-righteous as to seek the demise of your enemy. No, you must pray for their sake. Indeed, they are an enemy, for they have not sought your prosperity, but rather your demise as in the nature of selfish man. Still, you must relate with them as one unconcerned by the injury… is it an impossible task? Time will tell. Noah_arkenswagg

Virtue

It is in the way of a man to assume experience is the greatest of teachers. It is a flawed thought. For the count of 2 eyes and 2 ears alone, there is enough evidence of the truth that rejects their thought; listen and look…for the lessons are all about. To taste bitterness for the sake of knowing sweetness, must be the most illogical of things ever thought. Noah_arkenswagg
