Welcome to the place where heros come to die

Where bright young hearts and vibrant sparks take up heavenly wings and fly

Here upon this battlefield, the good man breathes his last

Innocent eyes and confidence become things of the past

Welcome to the resting place of all your hopes and dreams

Where the dead man walking is all that's left, soul ripped apart at the seams

For right here on this battlefield, riddled with hurt and strife

Is where each brave soldier breathes their last and loses that spark of life

Many enter this battlefield, and all will leave it too

But no one ever stops to think what life truly does to you

[poeticrambler]

Faithful and sturdy, kindhearted and strong

Loyalty is a trait used to string you along

Working like a dog, you slave in the mud

All for a chance to earn someone's love

Your kindness is taken, your good deeds received well

Only to be abandoned in your personal hell

So sit like a good dog, you know how this ends

They'll come back to get you when they need you again

[poeticrambler]

I laugh and I joke and I smile and I grin

Holding all of my hurts hidden deep within

You may think that you know me, and that may be partially true

But you only know the me that I choose to show you

As I make all my jokes with the tears in my eyes

You stare at your phones and you believe all my lies

For in truth, I am a character who lives in your screen

And who I truly am remains hidden and unseen

[poeticrambler]

My eyes, they can see through your second skin

The things you hide away, you bury deep within

They are not safe from my all seeing gaze

You lie to my face, thinking you're safe in your maze

You've created a labyrinth, walls high as they are strong

Thinking I could never peer in, but that assumption was wrong

For while you hide in your puzzle, shying away from my love

I watch you ever patiently from high up above

This feeling is poison. It burns through my soul.

The venom charges through me with one constant goal.

The toxin does spread, wrapping chains around my heart.

This feeling and I, we may never part.

This loneliness is acid, it's eating me away.

And at some point, this dreaded poison will have taken me away.

Allies and Partners

Siblings and Friends

Here's to the ones

Who have all met their ends

Here's to love lost

Here's to love won

Here's to our triumphs

And how far we have come

Here's to our fallen

The ones left behind

Who have joined the stars above

Now down on us they shine

Here's to life and victory

Here's to death and loss

Let us continue to press forward

But never forget the cost

Blood has been spilled

Lives have been taken

But the names of our fallen

Shall not be forsaken

Take courage my siblings

My allies

My friends

For we live on in their stead

And our fight has yet to end

(Inspired by @finleyforevermore 's poem in memory of Nex Benedict)

Thinking back to a time when nobody cared

When I knew my place and I wasn't scared

Missing the days when I was always ignored

When I could have disappeared and no one would mourn

Now people care, and I fear it won't last

That they'll all run away like the friends of the past

I wish things were just the way they used to be

Where I sat alone in my head, but at least I was free

Happy birthday @the-cucco-nuggie!! This is my gift to you! Hope you like it!

------

From hills to the valleys

From ashes to dust

What glittered was gold

But that gold's not for us

Time and again

Empires fall

Beginning to end

We've seen it all

The tide it is rising

To drag us away

But we're done agonizing

Over what we should say

Time and again

We've dodged death's call

But here now my friend

Is the end of it all

The skys falling again

As often it does

The weight of the world

has fallen on us

Time and again

We rise and we fall

But we have each other

To brave through it all

From hills to the valleys

From ashes to dust

What glittered was gold

But that gold's not for us

No glory, no fame

Just a battle to win

And we'll claim the victory

Time and again

(It's kinda vague but it's loz inspired lol)

Nothing stings more then the second time

What you claimed would never happen has happened again

Taken for granted, now left behind

Abandoned for love of an unloving friend

[poeticrambler]

Born to die, but oh, weren't you beautiful? Born to fail, but weren't you lovely? Born to crash and burn, lighting up the night sky with your radiance. Born to end, as all things are, but before the end, you were magnificent.

Little lost soul

Drifting in the wind

Waiting for adventure

For life to begin

Small little soul

So curious and new

Unaware of the growing gap

Between them and what they knew

Lonely little soul

Floating on the breeze

Hoping someone will notice

And help them in their need

Little lost soul

Far away from home

Never knew it was their fate

To end up all alone

[poeticrambler]

Running in circles

Torn at the seams

This mask that I wear

Is not what it seems

Though I look busy

Though I look whole

I have nothing to do

And nowhere to go

Do not compare us

For we are the same

Running in circles

In this cruel, endless game

Our hearts are both wilting

Our torch hardly burns

Minds always filled with constant concerns

Only look closer if you truly dare

For this old mask of mine is beginning to tear

And if you look closely

I'm afraid you will see

That I am like you

And you are just like me

[poeticrambler]

Looking through my telescope at the starry sky

Comets on their journey speed to pass me by

But looking closer, I can see one coming straight my way

I'm glad a shooting star has deemed me good enough to stay

For @trippygalaxy, Merry Christmas <3 /p

[poeticrambler]

Small red stars mar the surface of my skin

Little imperfections on the body that I'm in

Drawing little shapes, the pressure brings relief

For now, the stars protect me from the monsters in my sleep

[poeticrambler]

Happiness grows where the sun doth shine.

My happiness grows, like flowers divine.

My joy, it grows in leaps and bounds.

My happiness lives where sunshine abounds.

Oh, happy day,

Oh, happy life,

Oh, joyous heart, free from all strife.

This love I will share, for it is mine, all mine.

My happiness grows where the sun doth shine.

Crystalline prison

We can see through each wall

Though we can not reach out

We watch others fall

Isolation together

In union, alone

The shrill cries for help

Chill us to the bone

We pound on our prison

A captive of fate

Dreading the worst

Help one minute too late

Calling out in the darkness

I see you, alone

But im trapped behind the glass of the screen of my phone.

[poeticrambler]

Thoughts on your mind echo in space

You don't belong here, you're out of your place

Simply a bother, a burden to bear

They would be better if you weren't there

Too weak, too slow, too soft, too kind

Too exposed to the demons that rule over your mind

They lie to you, child, do not be deceived

Their words are deceitful, not to be believed

Come away from their false love, in the dark you should stay

No one could care for a monster anyway.
