A SIGHT

Far ‘cross the window I stare,

All nature’s beauty is laid bare,

The trees sway gently  in the breeze,

The sun undoes the hard freeze.

Birds sing and dance in their nest,

I smirk at the, as if I am on a quest,

The sunshine is welcoming,

The grass in the fields is gleaming.

The air is cool, the breeze is gentle,

It hisses like water in a kettle,

Its music is a sedative, my eyes keep-

Off it charm, I am in an enchanted sleep.

Of all God’s creation, this is the best,

Mankind can not match this, attempts are a waste,

The power of the Lord is incomparable,

I bow to Him in awe and babble.

FIGHT

I tried very hard to ignore, but I can’t,

I came very close, but that is what I did not want,

Being close hurts you, but still you endure,

I want this end with grandeur.

I find it hard to express my feelings, I want them to know,

My dignity will not be sacrificed, I’ll not bow,

But it hurts as if I swallowed fire,

My heart burneth as my need is dire.

I feel the pain of watching her smile,

A hate to think what’ll others do, with intentions vile,

I have no way to ensure my respite,

I feed upon my woody inside, as does a termite.

A weight presses upon my chest, bearing it down,

Blood runneth the entire length of my dressing gown,

I become breathless,  with little to hope,

This separation is gruesome and agonizing to cope.
