The sweet taste of dawn,

Morning dew breaking;

Thin blades of grass across the lawn,

In the wind quaking;

Something sad hangs over it all,

The dim light of transition seeming to call. 

I just got Breath of the Wild and... Oof. I've only ever played A Link to the Past before this, so it feels really empty and sprawling and nostaglic.

~~~~~~~~~~

The world is wide,

But empty inside;

Time eats away at long-forgotten walls,

It is only then, a century later, fate calls;

The only one left in an abandoned kingdom,

Felled protecting that very same kingdom;

Now all is left to the mist and trees

As grass becomes overgrown,

And strongholds now house

Foes arriving in seas;

Ruin and past glory are all that remain

Of a world once golden, now history, slain. 

sorry this is pretty bad

you~

you are certainly not perfect- braces and skinny arms and you don't always have the words but

i like you just how you are, honestly- words are hard but we sit together with

crooked necks and controllers, staring up at the glowing screen as you show me how to dodge the

others so i can win for once but i dont even care about that all i care about is you as

your hand reaches out to straighten my glasses so i can see better- butterflies dancing in my

stomach and a tingling in my hands as we switch to the next game- i've never ever ever felt

this way before and i like it,

i 

like

you

The smallest hand ticks by:

Every second

Another second closer to disappearing,

One second less

Of things left to do;

There are billions of seconds in a life

And yet 

What are a million seconds

When one can pass so quickly?  

Once again,

Here I am:

Fingernails bitten to tatters;

Shoes left in shambles;

Eyes, broken windows

That don't lead to anywhere. 

Tears

Lost in a sea

of rain

Ears

Lost in the chaos

Of the world 

Eyes

Lost in pages upon pages

of text 

Heart

Lost in time,

Forgotten 

You

Lost in an invisible

Place 

Who's left

Now to hear you

scream? 

Here I stand

In a world so empty

Forgotten

And left behind

But that's

Okay it still holds its magic

And that's

All that matters

To me 

Hello! I've read a lot of poems on here (aren't poem and poetry such nice words?) and I was a little nervous to share some, but I just wrote these and it's the start of National Poetry Month, so why not. Enjoy! 

Tha-rump, tha-rump

Tha-rump

You peak out over a hill

Tha-rump, tha-rump

Tha-rump

You are one together

Tha-rump, tha-rump 

Tha-rump 

Says the undying beat of hooves

Tha-rump, tha-rump

Tha-rump

A thankless beat, drummed out for Eternity 

~~~~~

Eternity was one of my first horses. It's a play on words. :)

The world is cold and grey

Not really

But sometimes

When the wind blows its last

Sours notes

And all I have left is that

In a world

Abandoned and silent

But for the

Sound of nature

that always taunts me so

And when

a splash of colour arrived

Sound

movement

liveliness

Something that's

Not grass

I was 

Relieved

But soon I'd rob that colour

Destroy

That lovely spark of life

And now

I'm all alone again 

In this big world

Filled

With nothing 

I never wanted to be

A colour thief.

My insides screamed

The first time I accepted it. 

The first time...

Back when I wasn't tired yet.

When the world still felt so new

And I wasn't sick of grass grass grass.

To a time I foolishly thought

My cause was good and righteous.

And I deserved to be the one

Who brought back the colours.

But no not in this cold grey world

You're mistaken you've let the legends get to your head.

You've stolen away those last colours

That still graced this world in sprinkles.

Now you're all alone

Yet again.
