Worth Fighting For

Worth Fighting For


I want to show the world
I can do something great
Something they'd notice
That they preferably wouldn't hate
Something they'd talk about
For years and years
It'd leave a mark
And cause so many tears
Of joy
And boy
Oh boy
What that something would be
I's Love it
When people finally saw
What I wanted them to see
When I posted the post
People's be like
MAAAAAAAN
That's really cool
I wish I had that plan
And the girl of my dreams
Would finally see
I'm not just an empty space
Who watches TV
Waiting and wishing
Wishing and dreaming
Dreaming that I could find the right words
Say them the right way
And finally get
To feeling okay
I'm tired of the nothing
I'm ready for something more
I'm asking you to not stop me
Can I be worth fighting for?


And while we're on the subject
Can it be okay to rhyme again?

Treat A Damaged Soul

Blurgandyplop!
It all comes screaming
Out at once
And there's naught can be done
This is no fun
They say
So they click away
After trials and errors
It really doesn't matter
If I'm there or not
Who has been upsot by this
All this is
Another mess
That I'm taking part in
The timing was right
But the curve had been thrown
With nothing to do
The boy ends up alone again
Wishing
Hoping
Praying
All that good
And all that energy
Has been for
Something positive
Happy happy
Please don't let him
Fall away
With mighty voices
You always say
We work for the weak who've fallen hard
How is it right to not
Lift up a damaged soul


A Chance To Dream

Most nights
I won't remember my dreams
But in the morning
I'll wake up to find you there
In my head
Or my mind
Whatever
You're so fair
And so kind
Happy to just be alive
Have a good day
Is a thing that we say
As the birds chirp merrily onward
To get on with this date
Is a task that can wait
As alarms activate again
Once more
Yet with gentle talk of snooze
It resets it's fuse
For a few precious moments
However
It's never the same
I can't go back
You aren't there
And you never were
This is an outrage
How am I meant to keep going
When my biggest dream is gone?
I might as well get up
Though it doesn't seem...
Wait!
WAIT! WAIT!
WAIT! WAIT! WAIT!
I can wake up!
There's a state I cannot wait for!
Today I hope to reach her!
YES!
But tonight
Maybe I'll dream of her!
And maybe she'll also dream of me...

I Still Fall

So long after I still fall
Into your eyes
I know
I know
The point is less
But many nights of cries
Lead to thoughts
Of "What if?"
And imagination gone mad
While the world moves on
With no remorse
Not even a tad
And I hope
And I'm sure
All that she ever wanted
Will come to pass
It'd just be nice
If I had
Something to fall into
Too

The Plague Thieves Ending

These poems are meant to go more in detail on a video I made called The Plague Thieves, so they might not make much sense which is pretty on brand for me... but still... you might get more out of these works if you cheeked out the video! (https://youtu.be/a4T64L7B3W4)


Two men
Thick as thieves
Explore a tomb
Ancient evil awaits the alarm
And once it comes
All is well
For evil
And plague
And demons from beyond
Lives are changed
World's destroyed
Do they care?
Probably not
If it isn't shiny
But what is the point if nothing works?
So the hieves return
To fix thier folly
As only the dishonest can
A battle of dead
Soldiers of dread
Can never win
Against the trueness of men
Even against the odds
Victory can always be found
And a spark of light
Ends the blight
That has spread forth from the town
But this story's not done
There's no fame to be had
Just a debt
For deeds done





I realized this poem didn't actually go very deep into the final battle which was really the point...





Two men
And a demon
Do battle
Fighting the night
Away in a tomb
Darkness and fire
Deeds to inspire
A way to win
The only way
Is the shedding of blood
Trudging throught mud
To find a way
A single weakness
A breath of hope
Sparks from a sword
The most special sword
Cracking against an unexceptional rock
Is enough to bring down a demon
But is that enough
To tame a heart of darkness?
