some earth is poisoned by good intent
a gentle hand can stifle beautiful flowers
roaring waters hide behind an eery calm
an ember could leave nothing behind
the things that go bump in the night may be afraid of us
something is always hiding behind what you see
nature prevails because it can't feel greed
it trusts balance and order
it is beauty for beauty's sake
flowers do not bloom because they expect admiration
the stars will always come out in the dark
humanity does not define what makes life worth living
we look for meaning
and ignore the treasure that is existing
we built a system that makes joy a commodity
so we fight
we sacrifice our home
we are lost

I want nothing more than to dedicate my life to writing, so I figured I would start here to test the waters. I will be submitting stories to as many communities as possible.
