Creatures of the night

Creatures are crawling,

The sun is dawning,

Scuttling out of your sight.

Deformed and dying,

Shrieking and crying,

Trying to stay out of the light.

Twisted and broken,

Words never spoken,

About the creatures of the night.

Born from our neglect,

Our lack of respect,

For our planet that is now dying.

The oil we drill,

The trash that we spill,

We are not even trying.

We create the pollution,

But there is a solution,

So methods we must start applying.

Filling our streets,

Found at the beach,

The creatures our litter created.

They cannot die,

But their birth rate is high,

Hearts that are so full of hatred.

We will not survive,

While the creatures still thrive,

Our earth is already tainted.

Courage

What is courage?

A raging inferno that consumes your soul,

Daring you on, raring to go?

Or is it more free, like an ocean breeze?

Drifting by slowly, something to appease.

Maybe its music, of all different kinds,

Ensuring that you, do not go crazy in the mind?

Perhaps it’s a garden, sturdy and strong.

Flowers blooming, bees floating along.

Whatever it is, to you or me,

Embrace your courage, let it be free!

Friends

My friends are amazing! They are quirky, fun and cool!

My friends are fantastic! Most of them go to my school!

Sometimes some friends are silly though. They think they aren’t great. (No one in particular on blog! Looks at someone)

They think their feelings aren’t worth feeling. They think that they aren’t good. They think they have to change for me, to stay my friend. Little do they know, I love how they are, no matter how they grow and change. I love my friends. Forever. If ever we do break apart, I’ll fight to find the glue. I won’t change, but friendships might. So I appreciate today and yesterday.

Also I’m just mixing my name up every time to annoy you!

Heroes and villains

I have heroes aplenty, 

People I admire and respect,

Those that daunt and inspire me. 

There are also the heroes who I talk to everyday,

Who are my world and I love dearly.

Heroes I couldn’t live without.

Villains invade my beautiful world.

Those I can’t stand to be around. 

The people who would love to see me fail.

The wicked, jealous, ignorant villains.

I pity them as they mustn’t have a hero of their own.

Everyone needs a hero to stop their world from falling apart.

Even though I know they aren’t worth it,

They can get under my skin after digging for long enough.

I’ve learnt to avoid them.

It’s better to avoid than become one of them.

Often I don't realise how much they have polluted my world until they have left it,

Until I feel the relief.

Heroes don’t harm the villains,

They protect the cities,

Repair the damage,

Minimise the destruction.

I’m so glad I don’t have any villains attacking me inside my head.

They are so much harder to get rid of.

Villains are seldom completely defeated,

But they do go away.

And you can rebuild your world stronger and better for it.

Sometimes I have to be my own hero.

Keep smiling.

Do my best.

Be positive.

Don’t let it get to you.

I’m always trying my hardest to be someone's hero.

Rescue them from the villains in their hearts and heads.

Because they are my heroes,

And they are worth fighting for.

My life is a beautiful blessing,

Sometimes I forget how fortunate I am.

I am so grateful for the heroes in my life,

They can protect me from the villains.

And although my heroes helped shape it,

I am the creator of my world and I also have myself to thank,

For being me,

Through thick and thin.

Love’s curse

Love is a curse burnt into our hearts. It is a knife stuck in your stomach, being twisted and turned. It breaks up your thoughts like the worst sound you’ve heard tenfold. It growls, barks and bites. Yet as all those things happen but love casts a different spell, hidden. It enchants us, leading us through trouble to endless bliss. It throws us into the sky to see if we fly or fall. We never know when love is going to afflict our minds but when it does we find it in an unexpected way, where it sneaks up on us and blinds us to everything else. Love can be more than romance though. It can be wonderful friendships and extraordinary family. But what ever love you suffer from it will always come back and bite you stronger than karma. Love is a curse no matter which kind.

Ones and Zeros

Ones and zeros. We are all code. Companies take our information, and advertise what we want to buy most. They know our habits. We are their units. We are the numbers that run their lives. Drones and cameras and hidden little bugs. They see our every move. Freedom is a concept that no one really experiences. We are governed by the rich. We are no more valuable than the information we produce. There are few that stand up and live outside the technological tyranny, but they live in the shadows. Forever dark. Everyone has a digital footprint now and once you go in, there is no escape. The web of lies is going to tangle us up and suck us dry. We are their favourite code. Ones and zeros.

High hopes come crashing down

When I was a child they told me to follow my dreams,

Because they could make them all come true,

And I believed them.

Yet when I fall asleep I often have nightmares,

But nightmares are dreams too,

I guess they forgot to tell me that.
