The papers are signed, and a handshake makes final.
I turn slowly back to what was taken from me.
A friend and my comfort, the arms where I shivered.
When cold winds came out from the sea.
A lad at the time, when my father had sold her,
Just to drink for a time and forget of his shame.
He drank to his death, till his crimes were forgiven.
Lost too much to escape the blame.
For a time growing up, I thought of returning.
And to pry from the years what I had left behind,
But life pulled me far, for the times knew no kindness.
And I worried for what I might find.
Dulling with the times, while my memories faded.
The connection we had was too frayed now to save.
What once was my world, is now just a shadow.
If only I'd become more brave.
A dream in the night, I drove hundreds of miles.
I remembered again what it meant to be young.
Embrace all the hardships, and learn from time's passing.
To not ignore what once we clung.
Arrived in the morning, a day late to see her.
What's left to be seen were but her secrets lain bare.
With nails and a purpose, they built her from nothing
What I loved was no longer there.
I turn once again, and return to my anger.
Ignored it for years, now is my unending scorn.
They took her away, and rebuilt it for others.
Tis a loss that only I mourn.

Heart of a Star
There's a girl in the street, That no one stops to greet.
And she chases me through the snow
All the world to her back, And her eyes kind and black
But like two stars how they did glow.
Her voice made no sound, she left no prints on the ground
But I knew the warmth of her hold.
As she walks at my side, with a feeling of pride.
We pressed onward through the night's cold.
Yes we walked feeling sure, that the snow made us pure.
And dawn a promise of healing.
Yet I walked feeling numb, there's no warmth in what comes.
Still I walked forward unfeeling.
voices muffled by snow, but how could I know,
That the voice was you calling me?
Was a star back in those days, before my light greyed
Not too dim that you couldn't see
What once was kind is cold, what once was bright now old.
For the storm takes all our light away.
The woman walks in the snow, for only she knows.
Inside the man is bright as day.
And as I lie down in the snow,
Ever warmer is your hold.
Not like the tales that we were told,
When pages begin to mold,
For stories never end in death.
When I took my final breath
I knew my star would shimmer on.
Even when my echos gone.
And as I walked into the light
Heart of a Star burning bright.
Knew this pain was no longer mine.
To be a star yet fail to shine.
And she chases me through the snow
All the world to her back, And her eyes kind and black
But like two stars how they did glow.
Her voice made no sound, she left no prints on the ground
But I knew the warmth of her hold.
As she walks at my side, with a feeling of pride.
We pressed onward through the night's cold.
Yes we walked feeling sure, that the snow made us pure.

So for life it is said that there's not much more,
But to live and to feed and to eat what's left.
If that's true maybe then there's a lesson for;
Those like me who just want to be left alone.
Not quite here but still there when you speak to me
Of a place that you'd claim was your one true home.
Not for you vengeful one will peace come to thee,
Not welcome are your kind nor are those you teach.
Rending wings from the birds will not help us fly,
Neither will making flight a thing to be shamed.
Celebrate those who lift you to meet the sky
Demonize only those who would seek your fall.
So with life it is just a slight afterthought,
To honor what old pains have made possible.
But instead we speak only of battles fought,
Seen from eyes that were not of those from their age.
So to those who would seek to feed off their pain;
Outstretched arms should not point to those unwelcome.
Even now those who eat seek to start their reign,
On a throne of conceit towards self righteous hate.
With your spite and your "truths" all others must cease
Seek no words yours are bound to what you are now;
Justified champion of our hatred's peace
Justified suicide of the human race.

I like how every last line of a verse ends so jarringly by breaking rhyme. Really let's it sink in and have impact.

Now I have found my midnight town
Where I can spend my sleepless hours.
It's found so near, and held so dear
I'm glad to call it ours.
Now I'm found in this midnight town
Where hours pass in midnight showers
It's gone so long where sleepless thronged
We've took it all, it's ours.
From pallid sheen of moonlight's dial
Where giants hide from Dreamer's power
I hunt and thrive, I am alive
In what we claim is ours
These crooked minds breed midnight's shame
For the dreamer's locked in his tower.
This Lucid fear, a tainted Seer
And to my shame, it's ours.
With all we've built and all we've made
To you alone I leave this dower.
Petty and small, given you all;
All that was once, ours.
Where I can spend my sleepless hours.
It's found so near, and held so dear
I'm glad to call it ours.
Now I'm found in this midnight town

I was a gentle wind,
When wronged the kind never rescind.
But for a moment it past,
Felt my kindness would never last.
Flashed and the feeling fled
Like how our blue skies turn to red.
It's only natural to feel,
To be kind is not to be steel.
Life can bring out it's worst
If I fell I'd not be the first
Succumb to the life I'm in
But that's a curse of lesser men.
I wrote for kings and queens,
I drafted words that all have seen.
In their eyes I was made grand,
Taught to all who would understand.
When asked of all my peers
T'was I who had calmed all their fears.
They're waiting for me to speak.
To give might to those who were meek.
Kindness was all I shared
Maybe I was all who dared
To understand what's within
But that's the curse of lesser men
I preached all that I knew
Every day it was something new
To be one among my flock
Is to be diamonds among rocks
Go now and spread my word,
Yes make my thoughts all to be heard.
Flood these truths to fragile minds.
To be as me is to be kind.
Quell those who would oppose
For what is best only I know
Their words cast only a din
They are the curse of lesser men
Seeking out the vile few;
Those who dare oppose The Kind's view.
Our world cannot be whole.
While it's plagued by unkind souls.
Within years we will build
A world that is justly filled;
By all you as me are kind,
While we are one in the same mind.
To those who brought me here
I have become what I most feared
Became what I knew was Sin
But that's a curse to lesser men.
When wronged the kind never rescind.
But for a moment it past,
Felt my kindness would never last.
Flashed and the feeling fled

I thought I left you somewhere far,
A place where you could never mar;
All of what I've gathered now
But still I find you here somehow.
I caught you during sleep's onset.
Of all the things I can't forget;
Why are you what pains me so?
What need I do to make you go?
Has time itself sought to bring change
In one with peace I thought estrange;
From mem'ry and all my thoughts
Still on the edge your face is caught
Faded from misuse and age,
Your name still holds my cherished page;
On the tale long sought to seal,
But maybe that's how people heal.

He spoke to me in passing, Of how little he now felt.
He told me he was hurting, As the passing hours melt.
I told him of a story, 'bout a time I felt as him.
It took nary but vapors, from his glass now to the brim
She confided her secrets, to a man that she'd just met.
To give completely to me, Any other she'd regret.
She too spoke of her hardships, as so many others done.
Given a heart that's broken, and she's not the only one.
I read to him of legends, of a healer that would come.
His eyes and mem'ry taken. To all others he was numb.
I left him when I traveled, He hugged me and wished me luck.
Years later learned his passing, Another the cold had struck.
She clung onto my shoulder, when we met inside that cold.
Wanted someone to save her, or maybe someone to hold.
I gave what little I had, but my heart was still my own.
Soured that she could not have, I'd just rather be alone.
Early life spent in hiding, heard his heart was not to be.
Felt if his kin had shunned him, Sadly one of them was me.
He told us all his feelings, his heart's for another man.
But still I loved him dearly, Like only a brother can.

Milky Dream
If I could make everyday, become a yesterday.
Tomorrow would still be, where I'd want to go.
If I could see anything, and then learn everything.
The time I'd waste chasing, what I'd want to know.
So with time and knowledge gone, still I would seek beyond.
Boundless and forgotten, and still without name.
If the sky's oceans were fair, I'd name each star out there.
All seen as different, instead are all same.
If I could soon reach those skies, and pull up all who tries,
We'd spend all our lifetimes, on that milky way.
I'd share with all those who dreamed, that soft shimmering cream.
A sip of that brightness, we chased yesterday.
So each shooting star above, is us sending our love
To forlorn and dreamers, who need but a drip.
We're hailing from every stream, The S.S. Milky Dream
And in each child's heart, we anchor our ship
I'll pinch and pull out those seams, unbinding truth and dream.
To bring those tomorrows, whom needs it today.
I'll dock us all on unknown, and claim it as our home.
An eternal sunset, on that milky way.
It's between that dusk and dawn, where our tomorrow's gone.
I'll keep you a place here, a home on our star.
Tomorrow is almost here, and we are docked so near.
Tomorrow we can sail, tomorrows not far.
Tomorrow would still be, where I'd want to go.
If I could see anything, and then learn everything.
The time I'd waste chasing, what I'd want to know.
So with time and knowledge gone, still I would seek beyond.
Boundless and forgotten, and still without name.

Please put twenty on the six,
So I can drive away.
Where I'm sure to stay,
Sir.
I've not much left to my name,
But this here broken car
Still it could take me far
Sir.
I'd tell you where I would go
But it's unknown to me
It's where I'll soon be
Sir.
There's not much left for me here
There's but a cooling bed
And it's where I dread
Sir.
It's too late for me to ask
If I could turn around
Nothing to be found
Sir
Please just let me go out there
Let me go away soon
Where they know my tune
Sir.
So I can drive away.
Where I'm sure to stay,
Sir.

Echo V: Echoes of Echoes
There have been rumors about me,
That I've left you all behind.
Worry not, I'll be here waiting.
In a place that you can find.
I had been a man of patience,
Though my dreams were always far.
In echoes of silent waters
That is where the dreamers are.
Though our ties may seem unraveled,
Still echos will carry true;
Memories of those that made us,
My echoes, echo in you.
I am just a little further
On a bridge we built before.
So many have come to know me
And today we have one more.
In brightened eyes of my watchers.
That echo will carry on.
I've no fear of time eternal
I remain though I am gone.
And to those I held within me,
Those echoes are now in mine.
Still preserved in all it's passion,
A million souls in each line.
I've left these words for the living,
To know just as I had knew.
Endless souls we carry with us,
Those echoes, echo in you.

When I was with you,
There was something new.
It was the first time,
The laughter was mine,
That laughter echoes too.
My thoughts were insane,
To love would bring pain.
But against my will,
Yes you loved me still,
Your laughter echoes too.
Time has just rolled on,
What matters is gone.
Do I still exist,
Fading into mist,
My laughter echoes too.
I lived without cause,
A life spent in pause.
You reached out to me,
My reason to be,
Your laughter echoes too.
As I walked to you,
The one thing I knew,
Your loving embrace,
Laughter stole hate's place,
That laughter echoes too.
Many years after,
there was new laughter.
And he was our joy,
Was laughing, my boy.
Our laughter echoes too.

Child of Teeth
Hello there new one,
Born with your only treasure.
A beautiful gift,
Priceless beyond measure.
A world of thieves,
They seek to take it from you.
And all that you are,
To shape you as they knew.
A child of teeth,
Of bone, wisdom, and sinew.
They brought you this far,
To take what's within you.
Do not be of them,
Find where your treasure's needed.
Seek others as you,
Who's teeth shan't be heeded.
Do not think as them,
Too their words seek your treasure.
Their kindness a guise,
Loss guides them to pleasure.
Do not judge of them,
Too their treasures were taken.
These children of teeth,
They too were forsaken.
By children of Hate,
Of fear, mistrust, and power.
They too were once young,
And too were devoured.
Do not fall as them,
Don't let them blacken your soul.
Lest children of teeth,
Come to swallow you whole.

The bugle sounds
To gavel pounds,
I'm sentenced to the ground.
A friend I found
Who's hands go round,
That's digging up my mound.
The cannon shells
Have sent to hell,
All those who's morale fell
I sure could tell,
That it worked well,
Both sides rang out their knell
Insanity
The end of me,
And all I'll ever be.
Minds entropy,
Eternally,
A cursed one is thee.

I don't believe in happiness.
Or what it's meant to be,
I don't believe that happiness,
was ever meant for me.
I see all these people living,
Their struggles and their woes.
Their petty wrathful acts in life,
Most clearly to me shows;
What happiness can bring one to,
And all the hurt it leaves.
With so desperate a creature made,
Saught moments of reprieve;
From anguish brought by happiness.
And all that it entails
No comfort in that selfish act,
When happiness can fail.

Snowdrop
If I was the sand, you'd be like the snow.
On beaches and mountains, like dull light we glow.
Falling and shifting, a slave to our roles.
But still we are perfect, still both of us whole.
If I met great heat, while you felt great cold
No longer a stranger, did Glass, Ice behold.
life is as fragile, as ice and glass true.
But we give it meaning, I'll give mine to you.
If I could fly up, and follow you down.
From vapor to snowdrop, in joy I would drown.
But here by the sea, caressing each wave
I'm awaiting your snowfall; a promise you gave.
If winds sought to change, and blew you away.
If you couldn't find me, I would not dismay.
Though strangers in form, we're kindred in soul
No power or purpose, could take that we're whole.
If never again, we met on this beach
Please love another, who your magic can reach
I would forgive you, if you did stay gone
And you could forget me, and I would move on.
On beaches and mountains, like dull light we glow.
Falling and shifting, a slave to our roles.
But still we are perfect, still both of us whole.
If I met great heat, while you felt great cold
No longer a stranger, did Glass, Ice behold.

You thought you could be safe in your courts, with your laws and attorneys to protect you. In this world only I am law, my word is fact, my power is absolute.

Spoiler: saving space by putting it in the spoiler
This one really connected with me. Over a year ago I became the godfather of my brothers firstborn son and I dread the future society he will live in if things continue the way they are going.
I've been thinking about the parts of my life where my expectations were crushed by cold reality. Which values truly make you succeed in life and how you can find out what makes your own life fullfilling, to name a few.
It's all knowhow after the fact for me and I feel like I had to leave a bit of myself behind to gain this knowlegde (or even to be able to percieve this information). I wonder how I can convey my knowledge and experience in a way that is useful for a child, heck, if he's even willing to hear it. At the very least I think he should know that blind obedience results in great dependencies and not questioning authority can make you blind to everything around that authority.
Really liked this poem, I hope I properly explained why .
Face your emptiness don't be afraid. Breathe in and out, follow the lines in your hand. The danger is often smaller than your fear. If you dont know what is true, what motivates you or who you are: you are closer to the core than you realise

A storm I called is brewing, the cold winds told me so.
You hear it in the branches, in every tree that grows.
A cold snap here on Monday, and Tuesday naught but hail.
With Wednesday fast approaching, by Thursday we'll be pale.
A winter fast descending, to judge us for our sins.
Don't try to shame the failures, when no one ever wins.
Now chill is not it's fury, but silence is its art.
Of all the things of nature, it is the greatest part.
So if the winter calls you, you will be led astray.
The sinful it will punish, the just will surely stay.
A child's taught to fear it, adults will fight its touch.
By elder's voice we hear it, but never tells that much.
The precipice of knowledge, where wisdom never dares.
Had sought to overcome it, what nature freely shares.
The hubris of a mortal, the dogma of a king.
They all are just but children, to this unfeeling thing.
But I have given comfort, and venerated so.
To what which calls the winter, and that which lets life grow.
So as the winter calls me, I'll never see that gray.
I've so much more to do here, so it will let me -

I'm not a big fan of winter personally. I really dislike the cold and slippery roads are the bane of my existance since I slowly crashed my car into the backside of a big truck.
Regardless, if you post your poems here Domaya, I'll keep reading them.

We are, We are everything.
The people of value, the seers of truth.
You are, you've hurt everything.
The person to hate, the slayer of truth.
So biled and hurtful, so evil to hear.
So repugnant and vile, so wrathful so near.
Evil evil, you small evil thing.
How bitter, how petty, now made nothing.
See now? See now? How evil you were?
A simpering demon, neither he nor a her.
Bitter demon, your evil's been felled.
By my perfect, tolerant, truth I had held.
What say now evil? have you no words?
A demon's a demon, yes a demon you were.
Sit there now evil, all we've done is reclaim.
What should have been ours, now take in your pain.
Burn now, burn now, your kind is unkind
Made remind, of our kind, inclined in our find;
Now rewind to behind, now supined on decline;
of a cliff line by neck bind, we are so kind.
