  The Lion, Brer Rabbit, and Humpty

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  There once was a lion, A witch and a wardrobe. The likes of which, Transported you across the globe. But if you tripped and fell, And were to awake inside a well, Watch your step, and don’t be grumpy, Or down you’ll fall, like Humpty Dumpty....

  Blind

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  I had a dream I was blind. I searched aimlessly, for all of time, For my beloved eyes, that would save my mind. I knew deep down, it was a hopeless cause. Yet still I searched longingly, for all was lost. For my decision, I was to pay an unfathomable cost. My eyes had been glazed over, by an...

  I Miss You

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  I miss you like Dawn misses Day. I miss you like "Hello" misses "Hey." I miss you like the sun misses the moon. I miss you like like a gangster misses his goons. I miss you like a balloon misses the sky. I miss you like the spider misses the fly. I miss you like fire ...

  True Strength

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  We’ve all experienced pain At sometime or another in our life. But true strength is knowing how to gain Greater wisdom through our moments of strife. Momma and daddy, They were always happy. Straight outta high school, Ran away n’ got married. Didn’t tell no one, Just left n’ ho...

  Love.

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  I remember the first time I saw her face. I knew from that moment on. I'd found... not any one person. Not anything so simple as to define by a medium such as words. Something that can only be a fraction understood, Lest you've experienced it for yourself. I'd found ...

  Smeared Mascara

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  Brilliant girl, far from a wench. Joyously greets her boy wonder. Jumps into his arms, at their arranged place. Dazzling golden locks, by rain drenched. But all they could hear, louder than the thunder. Was their intertwined hearts, now beating louder than any bass. He le...

  Child of bane, From Hell she came. Of Satanic claim, She does appertain. All that remains Of past pains, Is tiresome chains. Grain by grain, They do drain. Their power plain, Overbearing as the rain. Yet she strains, Her attempts in vain, To flee the domain Of her constrain. ...

  Till Death Do Us Part

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  No matter how hard I try, N' how many rhymes I write, I can't find peace of mind, And go back to that time. Where I knew how it was To be your darlin' angel, From up above. Yeah, no matter what I say, It's like Fate itself is hellbent, On havin' us go our separa...

  Stronger/Colder

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  I've left behind so much. Yes, that's made me able to go for longer. But am I just stone cold to the touch? Or have I truly become stronger? I'm so grateful for what I now have. But if given the choice, I'd never walk that same life path. But does anyone out there hear ...

  My Sinful Angel

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  There's no way to explain what you do to me... You just do to me... what you do. Fallen straight from the heavens. But you flip my world upside down with your seductive touch. Does that mean you rose from hell....? That'd make so much more sense. But it wouldn't matter. Because...

  The Eye

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  There was always the Eye, In the heavens, in the vast sky. Its iris pearlescent, And it's pupil, a steely grey crescent. It had been there, watching us all from above, And had been there throughout all the tales the elders wove. Some nights, the Eye would seem encumbered, As if holdi...

  Life Without You

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  Living life without you is like walking blindly into the fray. The moment I let you go, I felt a part of me slip away. That's what you've become to me: a part of my whole, A fiber of my being, and a fragment of my soul. Living life without you is like listening to music with no sou...

  Hope.

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  He's so cold, and his world's so dark. He stands so bold, with words so stark. Wise beyond his age, many years. The price he's paid: many tears. All the girls whispered in wonder, 'Bout the boy with eye's bright as thunder. Yet his heart was so dark, in con...

  Maverici Inter Seraphin

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  I packed the concluding clump of soil into the burial mound, proceeding to place his broadsword directly atop the embankment of entombment. I studied the charred sepia mesa, confirming with my irascible conscience that he’d have desiderated to be sepulchered in his homeland. From here, inhumed wit...

  Nightmare

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  I’m tearing through the mist, gravel flying to my left and right every time I nearly trip. I’ve not the slightest clue who… or what I’m running from. The ignorance adds to the utter horror of the situation. It’s nearly pitch black outside, hours past initial nightfall. I’m blinded by the...

  The End

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  The year is 2012, and I, along with the rest of the world's most fortunate one billion people, was on a profoundly colossal island metropolis, secured from all outside dangers. We enjoyed our undeserved freedom from our mistakes and carelessness with our planet, and spent our days consciously d...

  The Transcendentalist

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  All was silent and tranquil throughout the shaded landscape. I looked out to the sky in awe of its disconcertingly mercurial nature. I venerate the dusk. Earth’s bona fide, delicate beauty is divulged as twilight cascades the acreage in an ensconcing cloak of cruxes and conundrums. The abstrusenes...

  Tales of the Maker

  

  By Jaze16, Harrogate, TN

  I was six, by human reasoning, when he had found me in the alleyway, surrounded by the other Exspes of my village. I was noticeably younger than the men and women that encompassed the area and Anethesteus had come to me with curiosity ablaze in his unconquerable eyes. He had kneeled onto one knee an...
