Guess

To put it in words is near impossible
To try and stop it would be wasted time
To try and extinguish the flame can be suicide
It can divide
Can conquer
Can help
Can kill
All that can be done is accept

Accept that it comes

Despite our efforts to evade it...
What is it I speak of?
Take a wild guess.
Love may not be welcome, but that doesn't stop it from entering.

Human

Scars, tears, fears

All things I wish I was immune to
I wish I could erase each and every one
And yet they are essential to life
They are what allow you to feel
Become stronger
Become the person you are meant to be
Flawed, cautious, feeling
In other words a human being...

Flawed is the new perfect. Never forget that you matter, even when you feel you don't.

Darkness To Light

All I know is in pieces on the ground

Replaced by the dark unknown

The only bright spot is the usually ominous moon

Let the darkness guide you through light

Let the sky be your obstacle

And the impossible your limit

To find the good in what seems made of evil...

I wrote this during a rather dark time in my life, but I found a hidden meaning behind my words upon reading it over. A meaning I didn't know it had, but a  meaning I'm glad I managed to portray. I hope you enjoy it.
