A couple more of my poems. Hope you like them

This poem is about being out in the big wide world


The Real World

I walk out into the world
And squint in the midday sun
My blinkers are off at last
And I can see what is all around
And realize what life is all about

I am in the real world now
With no-one to protect me or shield me from harm
Ive never realized how special this planet is
But now I see it all


Now I am happy
Now I am glad
Now I am free

Darkness


I stand and look out on the world
And do not believe what my eyes see
I see war
I see corruption
I see crime and death

I want to do something
I want to shout out
But my voice is too small to hear
I want to stop what I see
But what can one person do?

So I just stand there
Stand there and cry
Cry for the world
Stumbling in the dark
Trying to find the right way to go

I let out one final tear
And then go into the darkness

Angel

Your timeless beauty echoes through the ages
The dawn of a new day pales in comparison to you
You are like an angel walking amongst mortals
Like one of gods servants sent to me
To save me from harm
To guide me in the right direction
To be my light
And to lead me through my dark life

You are my reason to wake in the morning
To see you laying next to me
The sun illuminating you spirit
Laying their restless
Like you are untouched by the brutality of this world

When I met you it was like a spring morning
Everything begin to bloom
And life stirred into motion
