Just a poem I wrote. It’s not great but it’s what came out and it is kind of how I think, just spruced up for a poem. I titled it simply “Thoughts of My World”
To the surly skies that drop sparks
To the earth that lie with such calm
To whom do i owe the pleasure,
Of the scarlets and seas of light?
The ones that fill my eye
The ones that seize my heart
How shall I walk in the green?
With a fearful and cautious demeanor
I wonder if it shall be my last moment
Last to breathe
Last to hear
Last to witness the beauty of a tragedy
To bear such a burden
Knowing that I am but one
One who cannot possibly see all
Every moment of awe
Every spectacle that shall inspire
Every pleasure our earth is to offer
How could one do as such,
And not be driven mad with desire?
Night has come and I lie still
I stare into the windows
The ones high above the dark
Shining so brilliantly
I shall pluck the light from each
And take to my heart
So that I may find solace in such
And I wonder,
Is there another who does the same?
Through that light and on his side,
Does he stare right back?

EDIT: I'm having trouble formatting it properly because I'm stupid sometimes. i added the lines to separate the stanzas and make it a little more clear. I hope you enjoy
