As my body catches up with my age
I finally understand
The sacrifices you made for us
And as my eyes fail
I can finally see
The blood you had spilt on earth's crust
Just so we
Could be a bit better than you
As my chest aches
And my bones...
No-Yiff, Poem
As the sun rose, shadows lengthened, and the night started to peel away slowly. The dawn, while it looked beautiful, felt... sad. He wasn't sure why, but it felt sad to him. He was leaving his home, and heading to college. He should be feeling happy,...

Leaves falling down. Brown leaves, pale green leaves, purple leaves. The wind picks up.
Lakes start freezing. The waters grow cold. Ice is forming.
Rain is transforming into snow flakes. A slow transition. The days grow bleak.
Warmth leaves the air,...

The sun started to set.
Yellow, orange, pink, and red filled the sky -- red was the predominant color.
Wind could be heard.
_Whoosh._
It feels crisp.
The snow twinkles in the dying light.
The silhouettes are growing.
Snow flits about the...

The cold, loving winter has such nice weather
And like two wolves sleeping together
We dream of a time when things were better
Dreaming of a time when our ears were wetter
And like two bears we're fighting each other
Like humans, we fight like...

This ugly duckling had joined the army
His mom never taught him anything she knew
He was then shot down for his love of guns
It was his gun that fired from the one he loved
This foul duck done what he only knew
And hit as hard as he could
He...

It's about as far as the crow flies
Over the hills and mountains
There it lies
The thing we've been searching for our entire lives
We've went through hell and back for this thing
So it better be worth the pain
The stars never looked so...

It's a glass half full
But that seems to be the problem here
It's a glass half empty
But it always feels like there's something there
Out of sight, out of mind,
I just hope you do remember me,
Absence makes the heart grow fonder,
But that...

I spend time, talking to myself. I say things that I know I wouldn't say. I say things that I feel are not okay. I even think that this other person is me, but I stop, laugh, and say I'm being silly.
Now, I spend time, singing to no one. I sing songs...

I waste time, staying silent -- not wanting to say the wrong thing. I don't know what to say or do, so I hide. I hide because things are not right. I hide from this person who says they're changing, so I pipe down, and stop running.
How... How am I to...
