And Sometimes I wonder if on my loneliest days
If she had been there, would it change my ways?
If I learned to love and not think
Would my mind go to the brink?
Would I learn pain?
What would I gain?
Then I look in the mirror
I see not a Boy, But a Man
Staring down, knowing I don't understand
His knowledge is great
But wait, there a mistake
The times have turned
I see the mirror, my stomach churns.
I see me, a man, once more in the mirror
With greater knowledge I understand,
I am what I am, what I've made
Is a hideous monster, in a beautiful glade.
I thrashed about, destroyed the trees
Then all that was left, was hideous me.
Then she came, and planted new seeds
All around me, there grew more trees.
Once more I ripped them down
With effort, destroying the ground.
Still she came, and restored it anew
And I asked "Why would you?"
She replied with a grin and took my hand
She showed me her world, a much better land
She wanted me to live in her space
But I knew it was not my place
I had chosen destruction, to mutilate my home
She threw down her seeds, and I was not alone.
So we lived together, Destroying and killing
But in the end we leave one Building.
It stands as a reminder that this is our home,
We live together in a land all our own.
We hated the worlds we had before
So we threw out oppressors to the floor
Now we live free lives
Here by each other's sides.
Author notes
The first thought came to me, after one day I thought that i needed to write my thoughts down. I have been doing it for awhile, and finally i have made a poem from one of them. I am actually quite happy, and this poem (I hope) reflects that i have found someone I love.
