A Moment's Weakness

Hezekiah Jackson

I looked in the mirror Guess what I seen Most expect good looks The person they want to be Or the person by popular opinion In my mirror I saw the monsters within That fights desperately for control Surrounded by darkness The voices of death That says give in Give in to the hurt The pain that weighs on you The fatigue from pushing thus this far Give in and I can make it better The relief will overwhelm The calmness will beset you I looked in the mirror Guess what I seen I saw a person Who given in to the opinions The charismatic thoughts of others The negativity The darkness Wasn't around him No this time He was the darkness A person can only hold but so much Accept I'm sorry But so many times Before recognizing the feeling I need to fight back The frustration of giving so much Yet never recieving Working without a reward Something so easily found in my darkness Here I found happiness I haven't felt in a long time My anger that was over storage Gone Yet when I look in the mirror I realize I lost This war within my being Was to keep darkness from entering The battles against the words give in That's meant to be fought day to day Now when I see myself I see my failure A reminder that instead of fighting Keeping my light alive I blew it out For what was simple In the moment A moment's weakness

Don't know what to do

Nora

I wanna making you laugh, I wanna making you smile. Please do not kill this love, I'm only touched you while You was wondering by my warmth. I don't know what to do without you; So many days ago you brought Small hope into my boring life, too. Blue eyes like an immense ocean, Your first words like a dream. I'm fall in love with you more, However reckless it may seem. My little devilish angel With radiant smile, You are my own danger. I will always stay inside Your hot heart. You taught me, that memories Are never die, So for me it isn't very dangerous. You are here, but at a so long distance Of many kilometers in eternity. Your care and worry about me amazed My heart. Next to you is no adversity. I don't know what to do without you, My first and single soulmate. Don't kill this love, don't kill me too... Our love appeared from my hate. It is a turning point now, So what will you choose? Yes, you don't know, how... But we really cannot lose! ____________ And there is nothing more pleasant yet than to feel the love of a person who hates everyone now.

Приходи (RU-UA)

Ай

Черничные пироги, молоко с мёдом. Приходи. Почитаю тебе стихи и раны замажу йодом. Буду исцелять поэтапно все твои трещинки и порезы, даже в твоё заледеневшее сердце, поверь мне, — смело полезу. Повір! Залізу без страху. Без жалю, не боячись. Бо наше розпалене вогнище змушує бути хоч чимось. І тільки не хвилюйся — ми не розчинимось. Ні одне у одному, ні у часі. Мы снова столкнёмся, неспособные противостоять этой связи. Истощенные, но в друг друге, нашедшие дом. Якщо не перше життя, то і не перший том. Не перший різновид мов у моїх віршах. Не найдёшь меня в жизни? Отыщешь во снах. За той дверью, где я нам в пирог добавляю чернику. Приходи. Мне одной без тебя здесь ужасно дико.
