a couple poems

[CaptainDemon]

I wrote these at school, both about love. One's more positive, the other one not so much. I wrote the negative one while I was pretty ticked, so that's a reason why it's negative. I'll start with bad news first

"Garden of Beauty"

All what one treasures is sacred in its sentiments
But what one values, another, such as I, thinks of as trash
The world is a Garden
Love being the flowers that beautify it
But flowers only grow where the wind takes their seeds
Selective in beauty, exclusive in loveliness,
The ugly weeds, the foul-smelling earth
These are not things one wants in a garden,
So the flowers cover the ugly truth
with heavenly perfect lies,

Love covers the truth of its evil
But it will reap the fruits of its labor
Let the censorship of truth continue to reign
But let the garden die when there is no more rain.

This is the more positve one, talking about the hope of love, sorry if I'm beating that into you all's heads

"Shadow of a Chance"

Today, a Sun Day
Waking once again from where I slept
Thanking God he did not take me while I dreamt
Yet with this life. love lies exempt

Walking into my life,
I remember the faces I'll see
Attaching to them names and histories
Wondering still if they share a common mystery

The mystery of love, as it is
Standing as the most wanted and impossibly forgot
Painfully abandoned and feverishly sought
It pulls the strings of happiness while tying them into knots

It is a shadow of a chance,
That love will make its way to you
And without shadows of doubt it will change you
All one can hope for is to make it through

And now I look up at the world on my knees
Begging for once, "Let Love find me please!"
