Gray, stone corridor Illuminated only by the glow of my eyes Every corner turning into another Gray, stone corridor Solid, rough walls Shaping the abandoned temple of Man’s mortality Every sign of lifelessness left on those Solid, rough walls Smoky, black plume Smoldering from the center of this shrine Every dying passion fueling that Smoky, black plume Small, round chimney Suffocating me towards unconsciousness Every breath I take, climbing up the Small, round chimney Wide, open land Surrounding this levitating monolith… Everywhere I look I see Wide, open land Soft, gentle hand “Come with me,” I call below Every

Fascinating That one could experience life -- On the heavenly Earth Surrounded by freshwater and city lights, -- As a golden spirit, And feel, at the same time, a sense of Peace and forlornness. Alone Radiating on the shores, Absorbing the sunlight on my open chest, And my eyes closed... Struggling to force myself to feel The arms that should be wrapped around my body As she whispers behind me Mysteries of the universe… Nightfall I see nobody… I hear nobody… I feel nobody… And as I press my fists to my temple and Turn to the moon with a tired vision, I could swear that your existence was The most well-known fac

Someday… This day belongs to us… This day we’ve always talked about Will no longer have to be thought about Cause we’ll have the answers to the questions That right now all we can say is: Someday. No longer will you have to ask me “When will you propose to me?” And I’ll no longer hate to say “Someday.” We’ll have tea every morning and an apple a day, Who cares what anybody has to say? This is how our lives will be Someday. No more will you have to question When will our lives begin? It’s been way too long we’ve waited for Someday. We’ll dance to the music and

There was a time I wondered What kind of sound is made When the first star appears in the deep, dark sky… It sounds like joyous laughter in the act of transfiguring my wonder to whether I am experiencing dream or reality.

When a hero saves a life Everyone cheers and proclaims their love, But when a hero saves a virtue, There is only disgust. Let’s try something different. What are you afraid of? Let’s make something matter. For once in this life-forsaken world. Let evil be evil, But let it not be protected.

-“What say you, judge?” --Well, the first dinner was certainly delivered quite exquisitely. All the foods on my plate were in a good organization and their color scheme emit an appetizing incentive. They taste fabulous, I couldn’t have asked for a better meal. Your team certainly did a great job. The second dinner... I don’t know where to begin with my list of complaints. I have an uncontrollable suspicion from the smell of the food you have offered that you are trying to poison me. When I finally found the courage to try the meal, I had to resist spitting it back out into my napkin. I do not think your team even tri

When they believe, You know. When idols betray their integrity, You remain loyal to yourself. When teachers refuse to learn, You refuse to be taught. When leaders forget to lead, You define your own path. When family scuffles, You pay closer attention. When they call you old, You look younger. When they hate your happiness, You make it stronger. When they brand you blamable, You accept no guilt. When they kiss, You laugh. When we kiss, You sigh. When we exchange looks, You hear my silent song. When we hold hands, You feel my life force. When we work together, You know no better team. When they evade death, You achieve life. Whe

There’s nothing anyone could ever do To win the chance of viewing an event So powerful, so hypnotizing, so No force on earth could possibly prevent. “I’m not even in your league,” she despairs… “Nonsense,” says the god, “show what you’re hiding.” Greedy hands ripping the clothes she wears And the shadows somewhere in the moonlighting. From years of priding, this body is thine! Have my granite chest for your golden skin… For years of priding, your body is mine! Our carnal lips kiss the spirits within. Absorbing pleasure, she needn’t confess How his love’s restrict

 Freedom is an important element in every person’s life. People want their freedom to carry a gun, their financial freedom, children want independence from their parents, teenagers want their freedom to drink at age eighteen. Rallies are held and speeches are written to fight for such freedoms. Yet, how many people really understand the meaning of freedom? In this essay, I want to show how we can encapsulate what freedom really is, so I am only going to focus on is the fundamental degree: a person’s freedom to life, and I would like to elaborately illustrate it using the prime example of slavery in the revolutionary era of the Ame
