Hey all, ishbal poem I wrote. Sry that it's a little scatterbrained, but I kept getting new ideas for poems, and kinda incorporated them all into one not to mention i wrote it during history when my mind was sort of working hard on taking notes.. Again I apologize. By the way, my friends say I get way too overdramatic when I read this, and sadly (ITS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE FUNNY) it makes them break out laughing, if it has the same effect on any of you, please review and tell me WHY! Anyway, enjoy. Oh, I just got an idea, I have the poems that I developed from main ideas in this poem, so ill just post those as later chapters so we can all contrast and compare how much they stink kk well, here u go.
I'm Afraid
The world crumbles at my feet
As I stand waiting for hope that never comes
And I wonder why i'm not crying
When the earth is already stained red
Stained with the blood of my comrades
While i'm stuck here between life and death
Which one is worse?
I almost want to raise my head and laugh
At the absurdity of it all
At how bitter the irony is
That no matter how often people cry out for humanity
In reality it's so easy to take human life
So I look into the sun
And I hear the people around me talking
Saying that i'm brave, and bold, and looking to the future.
But they don't know the truth.
They don't know that i'm afraid to do anything else
Afraid to look down
I might see my hands
I might see the blood seeping through my fingers
The sight already haunts my dreams to the point
Where I can no longer tell reality from fantasy
The ships smash to pieces on the rocks
And my eyes run dry in the desert sun
I'd say i'm too young but ill never be old enough
And saying i'm innocent would just be a lie
Part of my soul drips away day by day
And no matter how much I tell my self it is
This isn't hell, it's worse
It's ishbal, and i'm afraid

Well, how was that? Please r&r, I eat up reviews like a rabid schizophrenic monkey and FLAMES ARE WELCOME, because i feel like flaming myself for this. Hope you liked it, or at least suffered through it till the end. Bye

Roy: (dying) sorry riza, I guess you regret flying to close to the sun.
Riza: (crying) not at all sir, Icarus enjoyed the view all the way down to hell
