Heart Heart is an easy one. I think this one beating thingy that keeps up all alive inspired me to write this.
Towers of Blackness This is a short one, and I have to admit, I wrote it feeling down. But due to the awesome power in this poem I kept it.
The Sphere The main purpose of this one is to make you wonder what that yellow sphere is, but I'm not gonna tell you... ;)
Speed Speed is also an easy one, and actually one of my least favorites simply because it's too simple. It's about that feeling you sometimes have in you mind that you're very busy, but in fact it's only a feeling.
Sweet Rapture For those of you that don't know. Rapture is ecstasy, when you feel like you're invincible, when everything is at its best. The deeper thought with this one is what I perceive as rapture... and what I would be willing to do to get it.
Trapped Who doesn't feel trapped sometimes, but the worst traps are the ones we make for ourselves... In our heads.
The Shadow Something nice can turn out to be something not-so-nice if you don't pay attention.
Imagination Here I want to show you that imagination and fantasy can be so very close to reality. And sometimes fantasy even becomes reality.
The Gardens of Fire This one is just for fun. It has some fantasy elements in it, but basically I wanted to show everyone that I can make a poem that has some rhyme. ;)
Realization As I was writing this I realized that realizing something does not always mean you have to change something, even if you want to.
Tick Tock Tack Hehehe, this is my what is wrong with this crazy world poem... I mean, sometimes I just don't get it.... tick tock tack.... ;)
Moving World Trying to reach out for what you don't have... sounds familiar eh... and sometimes it is very hard to keep trying... hard, but not impossible.
The Hunter
Although it's one of the last poems on this list, I wrote it a long time ago.
It's fantasy based but it contains some non-fantasy elements.
The River of Blood This one clearly shows my love for fantasy. Good vs Evil. And in case you're wondering... I root for the good guys. ;)
The Dance The Dance is one of my favorites, it is small yet very powerfull, it's about the little guy dancing for the stars, and the trick is... he must continue to dance, what happens when he stops no one knows, but he knows he better keep dancing, yet can he?
Contradiction Contradiction basically tells us something of our mind. That is the place we know. Here we can find out all the answers. Or can we?
Black Stars Black Stars is a sad story. It's about how short life is and how we do not realize that. We keep going on about trival things that are not important, if you look on our life-expectancy.
Life This one is about the creation of this planet, yet it could be used to view 'other' things too. And the cry did not yet take place, but when the cry shall come, and it will, then watch out planet!
Whispers in my head I made this one after a poetry assignment. It's about possible friends someone can have in his mind, and how the little voices there don't have to be good. And no, I don't hear voices myself... :)
Take care and thanxs for reading my poems, I hope you've enjoyed them.
