Affinities of Love by [Syn Serafim]


The Counts of Many


the affinities of all
you hurt me, you know
and I, to you, still call


It wasn't what you did
but that you did it gave pain
you lost my trust
and drove me insane


what happened and why
where did it go wrong and when
how could you do this to me
how did it begin?


That's ok
you can have him
soon you'll figure out
affinities are countless.

Invisible by [RINI]

I hate being this
Invisible nobody,
This depressed somebody,
No one cares whether
I smile or cry,
Vanish and die,
Too many to love
But loved by no one,
Living in this random world,
Never knowing what real feelings are,
Only pain.
Sometimes I wish I lived in a
Fairytale.
Sometimes I wish I had never
been brought here.
But those are just wishes
that never come true,
and this is the life
I have to go through.

Wish by [Solitiaum]

Drop a coin in the well,
And wish once more for happier days...
I look for hope in the glassy water,
Only to find
A stranger's sad, red-rimmed eyes,
Whose tears could fill this bottomless pit,
Should she ever let them fall...
The tears, the jerky sobs...
They are there,
But they are hidden well...
Tired well, unused, forgotten...
So long ago that the handle creaks now,
And fights to turn,
As the wooden pail gets closer to the icy waves...
My memories replay themselves,
As if my cranking the aged wooden handle
Sent me back in time.
Previous tears rush to my eyes,
And I just watch as the girl in the water
Reaches up to brush them angrily away...
The bucket dips gracefully into the glossy sheen,
And ripples dance upon the surface,
Crumpling the stranger's pretty face...
My heart aches for a natural smile,
Not one I have plastered on...
Anger, sadness...
One feeling merging from the two...
One day the flood will erode the barricades,
One day no dam will stop the flood...
One day this girl will realize...
She has to let go.

The Self-Righteous by [Llevon]

All await the light.
They pray to this prophet.
But it does not answer.
Instead, it takes their eyes away.
And still they ask for the same thing again.

All await enlightenment.
The sun shines brightly and they kneel.
But they are selfish and are ignored.
Omniscience burns their skin to ash.
And still their bones are crumpled in prayer.

All await eternity.
The sun no longer fills their sight.
They blur and are tainted with malice.
The sins are too heavy.
And still they beseech everlasting divinity.

No one awaits return.
Below their blood is rotting the flesh.
