I keep on wondering,
In the absence of your eyes
That shine like the waters of the Nile
Its moisturising flapping
And elegant blushing.
Oh girl I just dare to keep your passion
Underneath my hearth.
On top of a mountain,
We will meet-
Like chalk stains and the rinsing of knuckles.
Tonight a salamander has slayed a dragon.
the dead, they sleep beneath the trees
in the dirt where no man sees
all the living walk above
some in hatred, others love
few have realized the truth
*WHY* _I HAD_ *TO* _PONDER_
_Wandering exploring to discovery transportation, heading deep into the future_ .
Fuck

until the

situation
became violence,
when we
refused to
keep silence.
they killed our
brothers
murdered our
sisters.

Why can't they be death?
Determination in their voice
Aware of their choice
Their presence makes me a mess
Be it a single lumen or roaring bonfire, my feelings for him burn purple; Pink (love) + Blue (lust).
You think no one tells me,
You think I'll never see,
You think I don't have a silent plea,
This is what life really is
Not all fairy tales and roses
I'm putting down my walls,
So you can get a sense of some truth
So you can accept it
Reflecting on the days that I had it easy
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's ass,
For jealousy leads to hate.
But damn, she has such a nice, fat ass,
And everything else she has is great.
Dear the worst of me,
Greed...
Why are you here?
I didn't need all these tears.
I didn't need you when i was younger
She is
So wild and deep,
The forests and oceans,
Would be envious of her if,
They knew.
He stays awake, eyes staring,
At every wanted prize,
And all the things, deserving,
He knows he's been denied.
Green-silver shards of hatred
Poison his every thought,
And threads of something rage-red
Worthless, you say?
Well, Almost, but not quite
It takes some grammar
To make that right
You see, "worthless"
Spelling withal,
Is declaring you lack
any worth at all
I wander throughout the world
in a chain of my own making
A chain for which I cannot escape
A chain that I drag
from continent to continent.
I made the chain

Who is envy?
Is she the green eyed monster of legend
or the modern princess, glittering in jewels?
Does she have a smile like cotton candy
I envy the wind,Oh I envy the wind.
I envy the soft breeze of the wind,Its tender hold caresses your skin,While I cannot, I am not the wind,I envy the wind.
Though my stars be dark and my spirit black
It is not without reason that you find this lack
Of empathy, pity, mercy, or care
For others of similar gare.
My stars were darkened by the sun
The others, they'd laugh, they'd snicker.
Choosing teams, they'd say, "Don't pick her."
Turning red, embarrassed, I stood.
I envied them and that's not good.
i can already see a crown on her head
everyone loves her
even that physics teacher who hates everyone
gives her a smile when she walks in
i sit at the back of the class
and hate her
Love is the feeling of sensations.
To hold a pain in your heart for someone,
To capture that pain-
Only making it whole when the lover is present.
It is the emptiness in the chest,
I see a strong person.
I see a self confident person.
I see a smart person .
But what you see
Isnt always what really is
I am not strong .
People look at me with envy
becuse of my grades ,
You may have it all,
With your lovely eyes and bashful
smile,
But all of you won't matter in a while.
I've given in to the greater good,
And it's time to let it be understood.
Sometimes I envy those
Those stick skinny creatures
Some call goddesses
Humans, not felines
Who walk the cat walk
They have two faces,
But one body
Click, flash, print
She always had that green eye
No one ever knew why
Only took her a second to lie
Oh you know she was slicker than sly
Did whatever she could to reach the top
She couldnt be stopped
I sit in the dark and listen to the sound of laughter and joy but more importantly
I hear the LOVE they have with each other.
There's a monster.
It doesn't live under my bed,
Or make the floorboards creak at night.
It doesn't tap at the window,
Or make eerie sounds.
It doesn't cast shadows on the wall,
Or grope at my throat.
Some say that bitterness is what broke you,
and ripped your seams apart.
But whatever it was that consumed you,
longing is what lies inside your heart.
A longing to be better, is the single thread that binds you.
Envy, that monster that fills our hearts with malice.
Its constant spirit of abhorrence, never ending.
Aspirations turned into avarice.
How I envy you, wanderer, how I envy your every move, your every emotion, your every thought.
How I envy your paradise to have the stars themselves cover you as you wander eternally.
Rich green emeralds,
rich bright pearls,
blood red rubies on pale lace!
How rich she was,
Oh, Sarafina!
So many fine gems that she carried,
so much rich silk did she brandish!
hatred seeps through the streets of the city
anger at a wanderer who has done nothing but appear
they hate his freedom and lack of care
that they must remain bound to daily drugery
Envy
Does It Hurt To Stand Upon A Stage
Where Hundreds Of Eyes Beckon You
All Seeming So Cold
Chills Massaging Your Every Bone
It's Hard To Think
That You're Not Alone
Eyes of an everlasting sea-blue sky,
Greeting my own whenever we two meet
I notice them as life passes me by
Knowing our next union'll be bittersweet
And still those eyes haunt my eternal soul
It is of the deepest muck from which human desperation derives.
When the greatest humidity chokes the air, and daylight dries every upturned stone,
What goes on in the city
From the windows of icy apartments
Filled with the eyes of those looking out
And those being watched
Can they see us, seeing them
Jealousy rushing in our sockets
You say I lie I clearly can't remember
Everyone forgets about me in December
Friends quickly turn into enemies toward me
No one seems to be talking about anything but me
In a cruel way nothing but hidden laughs
Flowers coloured aquamarine, violet, and fuchsia
Forests dense with trees
Filled with exotic plants of all cultures
Alluring dark green, the colour of algae, ivy
Slightly overgrown
Your brown eyes enchant me
While My insides haunt me
With wings of butterflies flapping around
Breaking the spider webs for a new era
My thoughts provoke me to say shut-up
While my heart is whispering speak up
I envy the sheets that wrap and twist around you.
I envy the pillow where you rest your head.
I envy the floorboards to which you whisper your sleeping secrets
and that catch your seldom tears.
