You burst into the room,
pulsing with ecstatic reverberations,
a bundle of effervescent energy.
A giggle here, a flashed grin there,
leaving me stunned, and in awe.
A bright arc of electric joy,
you ignite flames in the darkest places,
illuminating the deep shadows.
Your personality bouncing from wall to wall,
A perpetual supply of youthful force.
A gentle kiss, teasingly light,
then you bounce away again,
those delicate fingers locking mine in place,
your eyes sparkling with a cheeky glow,
daring me to try and catch you, if I can.
You gaze at me, quintessentially adorable;
and in those blue pools of excited joy,
li
Your eyes ignite with a pulse of subtle charm,
Two pools of gentle blue, flecked with green and grey,
They gaze at me, twin swirls of colour,
such sublime eyes, they calm my soul,
fills me with a sense of joyful clarity.
Your gentle lips curl, like the autumn leaf, into a smile,
a flash of laughter builds up behind Your lips,
and spills forth into the cool air,
the sound reverberates, bouncing through the afternoon,
and reaches me, quenching all my burning flames of anxiety.
A slight touch from Your delicate hands is all it takes,
a shiver is sent ricocheting along my spine,
Your subtle glow illuminates even the dullest room

Contemplating flames
Fire,
Such a fickle beast.
You flicker in my palm,
Pulsing, it seems,
Fighting to both expand,
Or contract.
So divided,
To erupt, or to vanish?
Who can tell how you choose.
Can I be burned?
I can only wonder,
But,
It seems, that for now,
You are my friend.
What a pretty friend you are,
Your colours,
So rich, so strong,
So fleeting.
Orange, red, yellow,
Hot powerful colours,
Strong,
Wild,
Free.
Fire is free.
You are free.
A rare thing,
To be truly free.
How would it feel, I wonder,
To exist as you do,
And live completely
According to your wishes.
Is that not the dream?
The great questio
Hold back now,
Gaze at the sky,
Can't you see that burning light there?
Can't you feel the cold night slipping away?
So cast your eyes up Child,
Remove the shades of your black night,
Remember the days when you laughed so loud?
Let them come again.
Let your sun rise!
Let it slip over the horizon,
Watch it start as a sliver of gold,
And the light play on your skin,
Like you used to play, years ago.
Oh Child, can you see it now?
Lie back and bask in the warmth,
Marvel as it heats your icy skin,
Let it take the black away,
And fill your mind with its golden glow.
Child, can you feel it now?
The dawn has broken,
Warmth
Hey there, what do you see?
A normal lass, or my sweet lady fair?
She shames the ladies of this earth,
With her sweet and radiant laugh.
Her smile it casts a bright bright light,
That scatters through the misty air.
That smile, oh her darling smile,
Turns the air from white to joy.
And oh, how the rainbows weave,
their way through the morning air,
the beams of light are colouring my darling lady fair,
shining bands of happiness, they bring a gentle bliss,
for they guide me into her arms where she gives me a quick kiss.
Look there, dancing around, is my gorgeous lady fair,
her sweet blue eyes and cheeky smile hi
See their misery,
Watch their outrage,
Feel their pain,
Witness, their agonising wait.
Fleeing from their broken lands,
Dreaming of some helping hands,
The scars of war,
The tears of blood,
Marr faces that no longer smile.
They heard of this perfect place,
With smiles seen on every face,
Where man is equal, man is fair,
A man could make his life there.
They braved the guns,
They braved the bombs,
They braved the seas,
They risked their wives,
Their sons,
Their lives.
Freedom called, they ran for it,
Our government hates them for it.
Ignorant and terrified,
They locked the innocents inside.
They didn't pose a

Literature
His life a starry sky
His life a starry night,
His joys the sparkling lights,
His agony the inky black,
That seems to drown it all.
A faded memory,
Flitters through his
Tired mind,
Evoking thoughts of
Worthlessness.
His cracked emotions,
Splintered through like glass,
His agony reflected
In his brown, opaque eyes.
His life a starry night,
His joys the sparkling lights,
His agony the inky black,
That seems to drown it all.
Everywhere he turns
To run he finds someone
Who takes him back,
Back down to his lonely road.
A fear of failure drives him,
Rejection makes it worse.
Another bleeding wrist that night,
Only escalates the hurt
He is walking,
Several shuffling steps further
Down his lonely, broken road.
He is searching,
For a place where the
Cold inside will
Forever be erased.
He is crying,
Another failure hammered
Home the pain from
All the rest.
He is trying,
To find a home to
Call his own,
And finally lay down in rest.
He is smiling,
Trying desperately to save himself,
From the abyss of broken minds.
Fear grips him inside.
He is holding,
This broken mask of bitter joy,
Pressing it hard upon his face,
Fearing the day it finally breaks.
Is there any hope for him?
Is he condemned to isolation?
Is he unfit to welcome in?
Is he
Dust; the infinite substance,
The remnants of ages past.
Its spread coats the walls.
Its silent touch creeps upon
All neglected places,
All the forgotten things,
They slowly crumble into
Yet more dust.
Dust. The only thing that
Remains of empires,
Of great generals, of
Gods long forgotten.
Their bones disintegrating,
Becoming nothing but dust.
The ragged march of times legions
Pounds us all into dust.
All the vibrant life.
All the verdant plants.
They all collapse into oblivious dust.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
No matter your greatness.
No matter your wealth.
No matter your beauty.

A final lament, My Dear
Oh My Dear, what a run we've had,
What a story, what a broken mess.
Oh My Dear, did it have to end?
Did we need to stop running?
But you changed it all for us,
With your lies, your broken,
Twisted, selfish lies.
This is my final lament,
This is my final shout out.
Your lies burnt deep inside my soul,
A sizzling brand: forever scarring.
My Dear, I remember when
You took my hand,
I remember when you kissed me softly.
I remember that quiet laugh;
As you stared on through my heart.
I swore you were looking at me,
That I was your everything.
Alas I was another distraction,
A speed bump, on your
Lonely road to damnatio

We, the orphans of the australian dream.
we are naught but pieces, in a puzzle so large.
i hate life. i hate the way nothing works. i hate the pain inside. i hate the way i fail. i hate the way i feel so raw. i hate not having her. i hate seeing her 5 times a aweek and not being able to hold her hand. i hate this. i hate the way my life depends on my marks. i hate being so pathetic, so ugly, so stupid, that she will never want me. i hate me.
i hate life.
sometimes, i dont want to wake up.
