Our Paradise, hidden in plain sight.
My first(official) poem, I will probably cringe when I come back looking at this in a few years.
I never thought i would maybe end up writing a poem, or have the urge to write more. Well, here I am, a German writing english poems, because german is an annoying language. Please, if there are any things that make no sense, no matter how you look at it, it might just be me trying to be graceful in a language which isn't native to me. ;)
This was coming to me as I lay in my room at night while I thought about something Uncle Kage said (and some things that were posted over at /r/furry, but that doesn't really play any role).
Paradise
Laying down here, faced with darkness
Below me lies Earth, our great goddess
Giving birth to daemons which haunt our history
Who's allowance to faithfuls will forever be mystery.
And no! We don't learn.
But yes! We yearn,
For a better world to come.
Go on looking for this worlds beauty
Which in misled search you cannot reach
Your life and living can always be fruity
But our paradise is easy to breach.
Take care of it with us
Us; gryphons and cubs
Us; mares, drakes and tigers,
Lovers and peaceful fighters.
We will give you heaven
With sisters and brethren
A big family for all those
Who will have us with faults.
-R. Bluefire
Looking at it now, I kind of like it as much as I hate it, I think its silly. But that does not keep me from sharing it with you guys. Please leave a comment and say what you think of it. Did I do well for my first? Do you want to see more?
