I don't have much to say, but I've been in a sonnet phase lately, so I'll post a couple that I wrote.
----------------------------------------------------
At the top of a mountain, I saw her stand
Arms outstreched, she welcomed me in
I floated towards her, and she took my hand
She forgave my soul, she absolved my sin
I never thought home could be in her arms
It never occured to me that she was my name
She sheltered me from hurt, guarded me from harm
I looked in her eyes, and we were the same
My infant mind collapsed in fear
My dead eyes went blank and hid inside
I never thought the end could be so near
My instincts wept, for my heart had lied
In death's embrace my mind's eye bled
At that moment I knew my soul was dead
----------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------
Her face drifted across the morning sky
Like Jupiter taunting me in full bloom
Be it like some small, insignificant lie
Be it like some impending, inescapable doom
I gaze upon the sky every night of my days
But no star burns as bright as the light in her eyes
Embedded in the sun, and in all of its rays
Like almighty Cephai, but with much stronger ties
I stare contently for eternity and three extra years
Until my mind goes blank and my retinas burn
Consider it a nightmare, or one of my ultimate fears
Consider it a white dwarf, at the end of its turn
My stars have burnt out, in a magnificent cloud
I'd gaze for another life, if the time was allowed
----------------------------------------------------
There ya go.
