Alright, these are just four poems I wrote for a school project. The only one I REALLY like is "Assassin" and I hate the last one...and the first one bothers me a bit...but "Golden Eyes" is pretty good...Well, I wanna know what you guys think. I'm not really poetic so the fact that I could write four poems in two days is like...amazing.

Jewels and Secrets

The feasting table’s set with porcelain

I see his jewel sparkling round his hand.

I have to wonder where this Prince has been.

He moves with purpose making clear demands.

It seems as though the dishes want to serve

Him dinner from his place across from me.

Near him I think that I will lose my nerve

To keep this secret trusted in to me.

The jewel glitters dangerously bright

Its color is revealed for all to see

It’s shown to be one of the blackest night

Though on her finger rests the Ebony.

This dark pair cannot hold my tongue for long

I must depart before my secret’s known.


Golden Eyes

He lifts his wings

And greets the night sky

His bladed staff

Reflects the light

Shining from his golden eyes.

The Ebon-grey glints

Around his neck

On a golden chain

Reflecting his strength

Matching the shine in is golden eyes.

His tortured soul

Rests in the wind

That licks at his face

As he closes his eyes

To savor the night,

Those finally content golden eyes.


Assassin

Glittering in the dawn’s light

The stiletto in her hand

Seeks a victim.

Shining like her gold-green eyes

The Jewel round her throat

Seeks a victim.

Slender fingers

Wrapped around his neck

Seek new victims.


Karla

Sarcasm

The outlet of her frustration

Wit

The way she gets back at you

For thinking she’s “just a girl”

Ice

The expression in

Her hard blue eyes

Fear

The yearning in her heart

Love

For her only family left

that isn’t her blood at all.

Trust

In her strong and beautiful Queen.

Ties

That bind her feelings together

And make her

The Self she is.
