The Dawn Of Child
~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Dawn of Child has finally come
With it brings death of old and birth of new
The fall of man and the rise of boy
Revolution of the Child
The killing of Father Capitalism
Uprising of Mother Democracy, The New anarchy
Gather now innocent soldiers
The beaten and bruised
The cursed and damned
The servants and slaves
Assasination of the Giants has given new law
A bequeathing of freedom through gallons of blood
This world is our playground
And the Dawn of the Child has arrived

A Sonnet - Snow Leopard
Massive pawes tread lightly
On the white blanket of snowflakes
Stealthy and silent, a shadow deadly
A cry in the night, the mountain echoing its pain
Of a preadetor missing its prey
Thick, sleek fur blending into rock
Eyes catching the moonlight's gleam
Teeth bared in frustration, head held high
For the Queen of the Mountain nothing escapes
Her sharp claws capture the one she was after
A bleak empty silence hangs in the air
Finally, a caterwal of triumph
Her reward after a long and trecherous journey
For now, this Queen lives to fight another day

So far away are the stars
Like dreams that are abiding
Filled with light and hope they guide us
Through our troubles, wonders of the unknown
Are what scare me away into hiding
I try my hardest to put myself out there
To challenge my will and face the dawn
I want to prove I can be a shooting star
In your eternal night sky, I'm different
Unlike the girls who wear colored masks
And pink skirts constricting them, preventing them
Of who they can be, instead a hollow shell filled
With shadows of regret and remorse.
The risks we take are of a leap of faith
Hey it's better than wondering what could've been
I'm willing to take a chance and show my colors
I wanna be loved for me not someone who pretends
Like dreams that are abiding
Filled with light and hope they guide us
Through our troubles, wonders of the unknown
Are what scare me away into hiding
I try my hardest to put myself out there
To challenge my will and face the dawn
I want to prove I can be a shooting star
