The Pyramids

I was never one for travelling
But for you I am travelling the world
Just to be with you,
to have you in my arms.

I want to see the pyramids
and watch your jaw drop
as the sun falls beneith the stones
I look at you and forget everything

I still don't know if you feel the same
but I love you with all my heart
this fact doesn't faze me at all
because I won't, I can't

We will travel from Italy to Germany
From Russia to France
Across the world we will go
Making it our own,
Forever and more

Heart ache blues

I miss the ache
The lust and the passion
I want it all back
Just waiting for it to happen

Feed me your love
Take away my blues
My heart aches more
Just to see you

Forever and More

If the stars we look upon
Could stumble and fall
We would light up this earth
Forever and more

Now two of these stars
That fell from the skies
Landed in Brasil
Because they fell in your eyes

With the moon and the sun
Placed in the smile on your face
How can one not fall in love?
With the girl from this place

What my heart feels
For whatever my head says
What should this matter
For I love thee
Olive Tree
Forever and more

Warrior Woman

Today is the day we come out of hiding. The day the world will see us again. It is July 18th 2035 and we, the Vikings, the true descendants, the true warriors. We will rise above and conquer the world again. History will repeat itself like it always does. I am Eirik, war leader of the new age of Vikings and we have trained long and hard to begin our reign over the world once more.

We sailed long and hard from Norway to England, to once again claim our lands that have been stolen from us. Today is a long, long way away from 1066. We have improved our weaponry, our armour and our tactics. Our numbers are strong, our fearlessness is stronger and we will conquer this land once more. As we arrive on the shores of London, me and my men take the time to dream of our winnings. The gold, the power, the earth. We attack as soon as the sun hits the sea!

The battle was over quickly without a single casualty on our side, ha, these puny Englishmen thought they had a chance!  We tore down their buildings and slaughtered their young; too late for retaliation this war has just been won!

As I sail down the Thames, with my crew behind me, I look over the rubble that is London. What a glorious sight it is. The burning ashes of the weak English, their buildings now a pile of dust. The English dogs didn't think we were still alive, they never expected an attack as brutal as this. Us Vikings, we had won this fight before it had begun!

Then, I see her, my glorious warrior woman, my mighty lioness. She stands on a pile of fresh corpses, her armour stained red with blood. None of it her own. Her brown eyes in the moonlight flicker red with the fires around her. Can this be the woman I've waited for? Could this be the one that will rule over the earth with me? No, it can't be. A single woman is unheard of. This cannot and will not work. A leader I am, and a sole one at that, we have to leave her behind before she takes over my life, my sight, my opinion, MY LAND! So we abandon her on this wretched Island, leave her to fight any survivors alone. We will come back soon. Not for her, but for the Land.

The time went by as I watched her fight for her life, she finished off the survivors but she would starve before the next night. A strong woman within my ranks, this I cannot have. She will want to throw me off my throne, I know she will, she, her, will always be too strong for me to keep at arm’s length. This is the way it has to be. For I am now King Eirik the conqueror, ruler of these lands.

When we went back to the Island, her body was no more, she had been eaten by the birds, and all we found was her armour. On the floor this blood red metal laid, I fell to my knees and held it tight as a single tear fell from my eye. She deserved more than that but I could not give it. My rule now has been strong, we have taken over the seas. My kingdom of heaven, my self made dreams. Nobody can stop us because we're the only ones left. Yet for all my riches and all my power, there is still an empty hole within me that I can't seem to fill.

Why can I still see her in my dreams? It has been 10 years. Her eyes, oh god her eyes, they haunt me forever. The rage, how can one woman possess so much rage and passion and love and desire all at the same time? Was it the flames? Was it the heat of battle? Why did I leave her there? How strong we could have become, I am such a fool! Lying on my raft, burning, waiting. With coins over my eyes, how could I not accept that I am destined for a lifetime of torment? I should say I have been. This is where I lay my head for the last time. My warriors head, yet all I can think is if I will get to be with her in the afterlife. My warrior woman.

The Best Poem in the World. EVER!


My beau, My love
My amiable dove
May thy heart be mine forever?
May fate bring us together?
I think of thee all of the time
Although the world is like a sine
Sometimes we’re high, sometimes we’re low
But since an arrow reached me, from Cupid’s bow
All my heart is fulled with mirth
Like I’ve never been, since my birth

Lovers Past

I had thy love and lost it once
I was such a fool.

I have to say in whining poetry
that over, it is not for me.
See, your burning desire and angelic charm,
attracts the loves once passed.
Pain and hurt that's never needed or deserved,
yet my worries form from situations past observed.

Men so sly and lies seem true,
easily fall into a trap could you,
because a man with no morals causes nothing but pain,
uses others, their pleasure, only their gain.

Now your glass heart his words can shatter,
any route you take, it will never matter.
'Cause I'm always here for thee.
My beautiful little Olive Tree.
