TwistedFate

Like a Knight from the days of old He wears his armour over a heart of gold Fighting for survival in life's great war Demons in his mind from all he saw He fears no man, blade or bodily harm He can't count the times he nearly bought the farm Standing against evil, a gauntlet he would face Fighting for good and vanishing without a trace Living with body covered by the scars of his past He travels on hoping he's find true love at last The Armour around his heart, fading slowly He was a hardened warrior, yet humble and lowly  Like all Knights, he has a chip on his shoulder  Bearing the weight of his pain, onward he'd soldier His only weakness was his Noble heart  And from his undying lust for love, he did not part Only the blades of love could pierce his armour  Bringing him to his knees, as he was no charmer To defend his love he would charge any fight But for now he wonders on, a lost and lonely Knight

Each morning, the beginning of the next round The fight with life, the hardest around  It'll beat you, bloody you and hurt to no end And all you can n do survive and find a way to mend Your life is what you make of it they say But we know that  a little luck goes along way  On a rare day, life retreats and we go on the attack  But then as we let our guard down, life hits back In life and in boxing,  landing punches is a must  Because if we don't, we just end up eating dust  Sometimes life does knock us down hard  And while wounds heal, we'll always be scarred  Like the cutmen in the corner, we have our friends  We trust and hope that they'll be there till the end But we can't depend on them cos they fight battles of their own. So sometimes it's left to us to fight life all alone We make bad choices and play catch up all the time  And following our hearts, is truly our only crime  We w...

Imagine if there’s that one person in life One you couldn’t go a day without speaking to A person who is always there in times of strife Someone who virtually completes you They’re the friend you always confide in Someone who knows your ins & outs on every level A person that knows before you start speaking One that you click with on a very different level They can relate to anything you’ve experienced                                                   Even if you’re polar opposites in every aspect You make time for them even in an inconvenience A true best friend with every respect There’s no level to how much you care for them And at the same time you know they’ll always be there Someone whose heart ...

And so it began, one dark and stormy night Lost and drowning in an ocean of thought With pen and paper in hand, I began to write Not knowing at all the outcome I sought. With Rolling thunder and a flickering candle And a heart full of sorrow and pain I penned all the thoughts that I couldn't handle As I sat staring at the pouring rain "Memoirs of a Burdened Heart" the first title I chose Inadvertently opening an unimaginable door Looking back, I'm glad that door didn’t close I never imagined myself a writer, all those years ago. A hobby born from a pain filled heart Is now a livelihood that I'll never give up From a time I didn't know where to start To a point where now, I never want to stop So I found my passion in very trying time A place where I can open the floodgates In poetry I found a love of words and rhyme  And this became my Twisted Fate

I dream of a world where we all get along, A world where people know right from wrong Where there is unity without hate, And humanity would change the world’s fate I dream of a world that accepts those for all they are Where lifestyles don’t matter and love ruled by far A world where religion didn’t divide people at all And where the good in people prevailed and evil would fall I dream of a world where there was only one race Where people get along despite the colour of their face A world without selfish people and prejudice failed And people respected each other and nobody bailed I dream of a world where women aren’t objectified Where our mothers, sisters and daughters are glorified A world where people stood up against abuse and rape And where justice prevails and evildoers see no escape I dream of a world where human and animal lived as one Where profit was based on hard work and not stolen by a g...

Respect, a word that is seldom used anymore It should be practiced by all and not just for show The world would be different if we just respected each other It seems all we know now is to insult and hurt one another It really doesn’t matter who, what or why? It's inhuman to make fun of those who suffer or die? Acceptance and tolerance it’s all the same The fact that we can sink this low, is a shame Internet comics and trolls think they're so bold In truth they’re insensitive, and their hearts are ice cold Humor maybe relative, but it can cut like a knife Who ever said that a joke, couldn’t take a life? We see it over and over and we do nothing at all The hateful and offensive ideals all over our walls Hundreds, thousands even millions already suffer Life is already tough, so why make it tougher? Nobody has a right to disrespect a person’s beliefs We need to take action and stop all the grief  ...

He had everything any man could need Just like the arrogant Prince in that fairy tale story Day by day he lived it up and his ego would feed Never realizing he himself would undo his on glory And just like that, one day he lost it all His life and riches gone and his heart broken Upon his knees he watched his kingdom fall His tears describing words unspoken Now all alone and his past a distant memory The life he knew slipped through his fingers Locked in his lonely tower for what seems like a century His appearance changed, like a beast he lingers The scars he bares from self-inflicted wounds Watching the world go by from his own personal hell Hoping that one day he will no longer be marooned and like the Beast in the story, he too will be saved by a Belle
