Glow Up
This poem is my definition of what glowing up/leveling up means. It's a lot to do with what we consume in our day to day through our senses. Cause like nature our senses are our elements to finding balance and harmony; and if we ignore their value, we ignore a sense of self.
How can you bring the sun and not invite the wind?
It's like pouring water on a fire and expecting it reignite all over again,
Let's not pretend like these elements do not transcend,
The balance and harmony Mother Nature represents!
So if glowing is what you recommend,
Then our internal balance must come from our senses,
Which scales up the present tense with,
The touch of your taste,
Sight of your smell,
To hear the energy before you dwell;
In and loose sight of yourself.

The Road to Nowhere
Trigger warnings: Violence, Death. "May the Sun burn your tongue out, woman," Fredrick's father screamed the curse into his mother's ear as their elegant little carriage rumbled along, its polished wood and gilded trim glinting in the torchlight. They had just left the small village of Saffron and were on an unnamed road to the capital for the Royal wedding. Fredrick leaned back in his plush velvet seat to escape into the passing landscape, but across from him sat the servant boy, a scrappy lad named Jack. Jack's eyes held a mixture of awe and fear, the kind that only a commoner could feel in the presence of nobility. Jack looked up and caught Fredrick's gaze, offering him a sad little smile before reaching into his pocket and retrieving a little caramel treat. This candy was no doubt stolen from the kitchen treat cupboard; if he was caught with it, he would be locked in the box as punishment.
