My Brother At My Side

My brother at my side, sure in his skin. He was not there when I last looked back and Odd he be here now where I’ve always been. Mine he was at birth, knowledge leaves a brand. Play the part, act as if my steps are sure, And walk ahead, leave footprints in the sand. We laughed, we fought, he remained my treasure. I stood his guide, his guard, a source of light The years brought me tears as well as pleasure. Has man fought such war? Has knight faced such blight? Stumbles always seen, stress wearing me thin. My greatest fear: that he’d vanish from sight. Yet here he stands and proud am I his kin. My brother at my side, sure in h

Who Am I? by AmberStar2, literature

Literature

Who Am I?

Who Am I? That is what they ask. My face is Ever an object of curiosity. Am I “True Love,” Never to be confessed? The woman who held Da Vinci’s long sought-after heart. Am I “A Self-Portrait,” Or am I in fact, “True Self”? A handsome face Could in fact be a secret mirror. Am I “A Tribute,” To a woman of power and grace? Too many names Come to mind: Isabella, Cecilia, Costanza… Am I “The Perfect Woman,” Born from his wishful desires? Everything that he wanted I was, except for the reality to hold. Am I “An Unholy Secret,” Of a male apprentice who became mo

The Ballad of the Wife of Bath

I am the Bride, Wife and Woman. Five times I’ve worn the veil, Yet my fifth stood out from the rest, So listen to my tale. Jankyn came while I still stood wife, Yearning filled me to brim. Before my fourth was in the ground, My heart was set on him. I told him he enchanted me, Killing me in my dream. This was a lie spun from passion, And the start of my scheme. Yet Jankyn, I could not control, My tricks met with a sneer. The only one I chose for love, Was the one I would fear. Beatings came more than caresses. He lived to call my bluff. When he read of wives that use men, I’d at last had enough. I tore the page from horrid b

A Feeling Worthwhile

No It is not what they think it is It is not a raging tsunami Forcing its way over and through It does not feel like they think it feels It is not a devouring fire Blazing and burning out a hollow husk It does not sound like they think it sounds It is not a standing ovation Screaming and roaring and crushing noise It does not taste like they think it tastes It is not a freshly picked plum Fed by the hand of a lover under a willow No It is what it is and nothing less than that It is the truth you wanted to hear Asked for and regretted for but now you know It feels like what you were not expecting It is the touch of sunlight on your han

Good Men by AmberStar2, literature

Literature

Good Men

Leaders step forward and charge Clear in goal and secure in intent they gather and stand and win Good Men step then step then step Pushing and pulling and tripping and falling and blistering and learning Champions inspire grand tales and songs Recounted by minstrels with shining eyes and waving arms Good Men inspire small smiles and loving mocks Ears blushing and mouth moving and then left with the bill as the tap run dry Conquerors build upon mountaintops To see beyond the sky and into visions and dreams of new they reach Good Men build where a door will open Go in or go out and walk and see and hear and smell and wonder what else Id

How To Dream

REM (Slumber) D.I.L.D. (Dreaming) W.I.L.D (Waking) Where did you come from? Doesn’t matter You’re here now Time moves more slowly here All the time in the World Explore There are many locked doors To reach the place you need to go You just need to use a key Is it dark (bright) in here? Turn on (off) the lights You can’t? Flick the switch Still nothing? What does that tell you? Take a seat It’s today’s (tomorrow’s) paper Turn the pages But the words don’t register Does that make sense? You know how to read (don’t you?) That painting on the wall Is the masterpiece you wish to create Stepping o

Snow Fort by AmberStar2, literature

Literature

Snow Fort

Perfect powder fell from the sky Thus the chance Could not be passed To build the perfect snow fort. Laughing eyes and wriggling limbs Bundled into fleece Mittened hands pat walls Gloved fingers dig tunnels ‘Til at last task is complete: Resembles more of a mound Than mighty battle fortress. But youthful triumph And rosy cheeks Make it shimmering castle Guarded by silver dragons. Never to be felled nor forgotten ‘Til mothers call in their knights And hot chocolate is served.

Pairing List~

0 min read

I was in a mood so I decided to make a list of all my fave anime pairings! It turned out kinda long, but whatever. PLEASE NOTE: I respect all pairing preferences and despise people who bash on others just because they aren't fans of the couple themselves. So if you like the same pairings as me, that's great! :happybounce: If you prefer a different pairing that's perfectly fine. :D If you dislike a pairing, that's ok too, but please do not bash/flame it here. You can say you're not a fan, but hate rants are unwanted. Opinions? Wonderful! Dissing people and people's preferences? Not so much. :no: YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! OK, so the list
