Would You Believe?

Would you believe?

Are you an Eve?

Or can you see?

Open your eyes

In order to see

You need to believe

You need to believe

In order to receive

Can you not see?

Don’t go to sleep

Or be blind like Eve

Who didn’t believe

What will you be?

An eve?

Or someone who sees and believes?

Love Letter

Dear You,

It’s been a while

Do you remember me?

We met by chance

We had chemistry

But it was nuclear

I was falling for you

But you took advantage

You hurt me a lot

But I still love you

After all this time

Will you come back?

We could be together

As love conquers all

I know you have a heart

Come on, what say you?

Do you want to see?

What we really could be?

Superhero's

Afraid of confrontation

He flew to see me

Scared of who I am

And what I can do

Flyboy as I call him

Is jealous of me

Because I am better

Than he’ll ever be

Yes he has powers

The ability to climb walls

But I can do more

I can be inside walls

He tries to chase me

But to no success

I am better

I am invisible!

The Army Kind!

That Man Reacher

A wandering soul

Walking aimless

Nowhere to go

Who is he?

What does he do?

Where is he going?

People always ask

His occupation

An army officer

Military policeman

Laying down the rules

People were scared

Of his appearance

A mighty man

One to fear

A wandering man

Still fighting crime

Who is he?

People ask

He’s a moral man

Of integrity and peace

A man who rules

The army kind!

The Day After

Utter sadness

Some remorse

Many tears

Used tissues

Red eyes

Runny nose

No words

She is gone

Curtains closed

Lights off

Stillness now

Laughter gone

No happiness

No fun

Just memories

Now she is gone

Yesterday’s hope

Is now gone

Today’s pain

Is total agony

King

Gather the crowds

Let them hear

Of the wondrous news

That I will be king

Summon my father

Bring me my brothers

Make them bow

And call me sire

Let me show them

What I now am

One to be feared

For all to revere

Many years ago

They threw me down

Covered me in mud

And left me for dead

But I survived

I was rescued

Now I will be king

I will rule them all

Let me see their faces

When they hear the news

How I will smile

I am now King
