Hiatus
Due to severe issues with health and sleep, I am going to concentrate on sleeping for as much as I can for the next month. I will write, but won't be posting anywhere. So see you in March, I hope it becomes Spring soon.
This is England
Whether arch villain possessed of anger
Or anti Christ has ascended to threaten
Black bright, loud, avian messengers
Calling, telling, empowering
Alert us to the Crusade ahead
England shall never fall to foreign invader
So long as there dwells ravens at the Tower
Powerful emissaries of life
Bringers of the portents of death
We must not ignore them
Or our flesh and lands will die
Rising from our decay
The Ravens call upon us to live
Bringing wisdom from the ancient days
Telling us to be humble, telling us to be great
For they are gifted with sight given by the Gods
We are heroes fighting the tide of Saxons
We are common folk
Joined in desperation in the evening hour
Rising to defend our country from the Blitz
With little more than flesh and sweat and hands
We are England, and the Ravens are in the Tower
For now, and ever, this is our land

Wishes and Dreams
Wishes and dreams fall easier than tears for her
Her heart is closed for repairs and she isn’t ready to love
Again
She spent a lifetime in his arms, and that was enough
but then he left, and her pain started
And her hopes and wishes went away
Her dreams had died, her tears cried out
It all drove her insane that day
She thought she was tough
but she wasn’t even strong
And the waves pour over her, like they do
When love goes wrong
Frozen in stasis like a body beneath winter’s ice
her emotions are stunted, so cold and alone
never seeing light
Because she thought he was perfect
She thought they had the perfect life
But then he left her
No time for love
No time for strife
He just left her
To her self
And the wages of time
Her heart is closed for repairs and she isn’t ready to love
Again
She spent a lifetime in his arms, and that was enough
but then he left, and her pain started
And her hopes and wishes went away
Her dreams had died, her tears cried out
It all drove her insane that day
She thought she was tough
but she wasn’t even strong
And the waves pour over her, like they do
When love goes wrong
Frozen in stasis like a body beneath winter’s ice
her emotions are stunted, so cold and alone
never seeing light
Because she thought he was perfect
She thought they had the perfect life
But then he left her
No time for love
No time for strife
He just left her
To her self
And the wages of time

Unheard Prayer
I wrote a prayer today
In it I gave up
I didn’t send it out
No one would hear it
Anyway
God is perfect and so great
I am rotten and alone
If could stop this hate
Of my life,
My tragedy,
My own
I wouldn’t have to pray
I could die alone
But I am not so great
And I am so cold
God please don’t be mad
Please don’t take away
The only dreams I have
The ones where I’m not sad
When the ravens fly away
It’s time for me to say
I am ready to just die
I am ready to take my place
Let me go today
No one will cry
In it I gave up
I didn’t send it out
No one would hear it
Anyway
God is perfect and so great
I am rotten and alone
If could stop this hate
Of my life,
My tragedy,
My own
I wouldn’t have to pray
I could die alone
But I am not so great
And I am so cold
God please don’t be mad
Please don’t take away
The only dreams I have
The ones where I’m not sad
When the ravens fly away
It’s time for me to say
I am ready to just die
I am ready to take my place
Let me go today
No one will cry
