Dormant Rage

Deep within his subconscious,
a fire lights the path.
When pitted against determination,
it spreads to create conflagration.

Confronting his very self,
it remains in vitality.
Lighting his path to keep resolve,
so, he may bring himself to evolve.

When nature overpowers,
the embers start to die out.
In comes the darkness, bringing about the doubt.
He suffers blunt brutality in his uphill bout.

The flame burns again when he sees he is greatly sterile.
Unwilling to call it quits,
he rebounds in passionate fits.

A Burning Chance

As she passes by,
she sets hearts ablaze.
Irresistible in her charm,
her person is impossible to raze.

Likeness of a basilisk,
her glare will petrify.
Don't look straight at her!
Or, you will have an encumbrance to rectify!

If taken lightly,
you will incur her wrath.
Approach with caution!
Do not fall into the tempestuous path!

As with all beasts,
she is possible to tame.
When finally subdued,
she will provide you a worthy name.

The Love You Take is Equal to the Love You Make
We want others to love us, but, we never give them love.
We want to be accepted, but, we never learn to accept others.
We want to be listened to, but, we don't want to listen to others.
We want others to care about us, but, we don't want to care about others.
We want to be treated kindly, but, we never treat others kindly.
We don't want others to hurt us, but, we love to hurt others.
We want to talk about ourselves, but, we hate hearing others talk about themselves.
We want others to forgive us, but, we never want to forgive others.
Tell me, why do we want to be human, when we don't see others as human?

 

[Dan Allen]

I wish I was a glow worm,
A glow worm's ever glum,
How can you be unhappy,
When the sun shines out your bum?

The Burden of Leadership

I don't want to pursue authority; I would prefer earning it.

I don't want my followers to serve me; I want to serve them.

I don't want my followers to fear betraying me; I would rather fear of betraying them.

I don't want my followers to fear me; I want them to see me with all due respect.

I don't want my followers to see my leadership by force; I would rather they take time to recognise it.

Above all, I don't want to force myself into leadership; I want to earn that right.

 

[Jax Humanhater]

Love me or hate me,
You impassion me to keep on.

When you are on my mind,
I push myself to be the best.
I push myself to be better than yesterday.
I push myself to change for the better.
I push myself to be wiser.
I push myself to be ambitious.
I push myself to be resolute.
I push myself to be happy.
I push myself to build confidence.
I push myself to overcome my inner beast.
I push myself to be selfless.
I push myself to be benevolent.
I push myself to preserve my honor.
I push myself to being just.
I push myself to being righteous.
I push myself in hopes of inspiring you.
I push myself so you may come around to my deeds.
I push myself because I want you to awaken in your mind.
I push myself so you will be transcendant.
I push myself so you may know honor and justice.
I push myself in hopes you will see righteousness.
I push myself so you may see the splendor of knowledge.
I push myself in hopes I have earned your admiration and respect in the most sublime sense.

For all those reasons,
you mean the world to me!
