Resurrected Winter ~ Spirits of Art

Poems

I wrote poems in my previous art book, and now I have some more!

Lonely Knowledge

Out in the darkness
Knowledge awaits
It sits there in silence
And waits for its fate

It has sat there for years
And more years after that
And when the world ended
Still silently it sat

The world abandoned knowledge
They left it alone
So now the vast darkness
Is the place it calls home

Oh, how knowledge longed
For the loneliness to end
The only answer to that
Was what it called "friend"

Friends may sometimes
Be just out of reach
Easy to find
But harder to keep

So if you are familiar
With any kind soul
Please enter the vast darkness
And let knowledge know

The Ego of Humans

Up upon the great mountains gold
Where diamonds laid cold
And rivers ran old
There was a stone set in a cave
Said to be found by only the brave

The brave has to surpass all the rest
He must have the wits to pass every test

The brave has to bite through all the pain
Through fiery embers and acid rain

The brave has to slay beasts in their peaceful slumber
Yet he has to befriend those of fewer number

Most importantly, the brave must give in to the brave
What once was a hero, must now be humble slave

Up upon the great mountains gold
Where diamonds laid cold
And rivers ran old
There was a stone set in a cave
Said to be found by only the brave

Why does the brave even bother to try?
He attempts the adventure although he is sure he will die
He set out to find the stone to make his own
But the stone set in a cave is only a stone

(Do you guys get the last one? It basically means that despite being the stone set in a cave being a regular stone, people still try to find it to prove how brave and great they are. Thus, the title.)

Please vote and comment! I have more poems but I won't post them. 😈 Yet.
