Overpowering Pain

pain so great
overpowering all emotions
can't feel anything
but this pain and anger

hopeless and frustrated
trying to put a smile on
not working
covered by this blanket of sorrow

hate so strong
only one could handle this
no one should go through this
feeligns as if they are being shred to pieces

trying to smile
but not being able to
forbidden to smile
impossible to smile
in this school of horrer

smiling
happy together

gazing into deep ocean blue stars
snowflakes on the inside
turning into the darkest
parts of the ocean

making wishes come true

comes over the morning sky
riding on a white stallion
shining in all her beauty,
giving a reason to stride on

wetting the white towel
cleaning his wounds
turning to crimson red
dripping with his pain

Perfect Flower

growing out of the ground

topped with beauty
emmitting the fragrance of love

brittle through the body
strong in the roots
but thats all that matters
for that keeps them going

shining its beauty
letting everyone see it
all the time

spreading its sweet smell
with everyone that comes in contact
making them happy

sorting through the flowers
searching for the only one
