The Ruin

The Ruin,
Stands stumbling,
Crying,
Calling out names of Things Lost,
Of life,
Love,
All gone.
Lost to sands of time,
The Ruin all that remains,
With nothing except the ghost,
The ghost of a time better,
Joyful.
And,
Lost.
Had children ever walked his streets?
Held his hand?
Danced or played?
The children that had been,
Gone.
Forgotten to everything, everyone,
Except he.
He who is cursed to remember,
Though everyone else,
Free to forget.
He sighs,
And settles into the muck,
Awaiting his day,
His time,
To be remembered once more.

early wake

Hanging from a peach tree
a bat wakes up, stretching out his small pink tongue
yawning,
opening his eyes
watching the dusk sun
slowly slide
beneath the clouds, to be dreamt
for another night
Stretching out his giant wings
while others slowly crawl out of their dreamy stupor.

A Cloud to snow to raindrop

A cloud comes from over the mountain range, it has come from days of traveling and has finally come to its destination
It starts to cry happy tears of snow as it slowly disappears into the air ,the snowflakes slowly come down like Fall leaves, left right left right again and again until they reach the ground.
They stay for many hours but then one snowflake hears the screams of their friends and family. It starts to melt, it fears for its life, it starts to sweat, but suddenly it starts to rise from the ground meeting with its family, once more forming a cloud that will make the same journey as the first one. Luckily the snowflake survived and the cycle begins once again.

Life

Life is a gift
It gives
And it takes
The trees above
To the ground below
It is all a part of this world
We should be greatful
The animals
The plants
They come from the one who made Earth
To be Thankful
To help
Keep this life clean
Safe and Green
Is a way we can live Life.

Unlit

Life is no longer whole,
Like plans without a goal,
Or a map with a hole.

Without you, life has lost its reason,
As if your disappearance is a treason.

The fire in my heart,
My passion to depart,
Are both killed and torn apart.

Maybe I should just forget it?
Let the pain conquer my spirit,
Submit.

All was fine for a bit,
But like a bullet, the time hit,
Your fire, blazing as bright as the starry night sit,
Unlit.
