going to miss this one out sorry poe :(

dragonpoe · Guest

ok, so this was a bit harder than I thought. I'm not even sure if I pulled this off correctly!!

Paradox:

Wrapped in steel, barricaded in stone
fearing the fear of being alone.
taken for granted when grants are due
fear the fearing of losing you -

Independent yet needy, take only to give
living to dream yet dreaming to live.
Killing for survival when survival is dead
screaming to speak, silenced instead.

Mask is the face painted in splendor
beauty not outward, inward kept glamor.
Falsifying notions to be kept apart from the rest
beauty not inward when beauty's the best.

Forsake not the wretched, trembling hands feel
ignoring the pain when the wounds won't heal.
Blame the blameless and give victory to the lost
no matter the consequence, no matter the cost.

Tempered yet passionate, if only you knew
fearing the fear of loving you.
Captured the predator who gave up the prey
fear the fearing of keeping you.

TROUBLEMAKER

There you go - new challenge.

dragonpoe · Guest

*Ok this has been sitting here long enough.. Let's give this a try*

I am such a troublemaker
with my thoughts upon my sleeve
I can't ignore the things I think
or the way I make believe -

That castles grow from rocky shores
and the sun is a star in hand
Or that I have the sea in a cup
And I'm the only gal that you adore...

A wicked glint lights up my eyes
despite how hard I try, I try!
But when it come to you I just
find trouble becomes a must.

Yet I see a certain smile there
and I start to think you might enjoy
the way I play such fancy games
so long as I'm the girl and you're the boy.

Oh, yes I'm a trouble maker
with my thoughts upon my sleeve
I'll live in my castle by the shore
and let you think it's make believe.
