Fandom that I'm crossing with: Rise of the Guardians
Characters: Mikey and Jack Frost
Form: Free form
If you saw these people, you wouldn't think them sad
quick to smile
quick to laugh
quick to pull a prank
whether with water or with ice
but below the smiles
below the hollow laughs
below the snowballs or the water balloons
They are lonely
longing to be seen, be heard
invisible to the world around them
a world that doesn't know
of their existences
and might shun them if they did
but still they protect it
all the humans that don't see them
never bothered to learn a name
don't know them, or fear them on sight
they protect all of them still
from monsters, from aliens
from Nightmares and their King
from school or from robberies
they stand on the roof tops
unthanked, unknown, lonely
heroes and Guardians
through and through
So, what'd you think? I'm usually not one for poetry, but I find Jack and Mikey to be very similar, in a lot of ways. R&R Until next chapter!
