Ace Of Black Hearts Poems

Stuck in boxing ring.
My opponent is me.
How do I win?
How do I avoid the bloody lip.
...

Death comes up so fast, I continue to laugh.
It's every where I look.
The bodies are starting to pile up.
Over 500,000 dead.
...

In this dream is a landscape.
Painted by the memories of the choices made.
From as a child throwing candy back at a parade.
To playing hiding and seek with roman candles.
...

Breaking it all down.
Twisting and turning with no pills.
Rolling right through those empty hills.
Can I say I miss you.
...

It was perfect.
It was perfect.
Then you had to go and ruin it.
Making promises you could never keep.
...

Only when we fight to defend can it be noble if only even in our very own heads.
Knowing the right choice, for the right reason is not freely given. But with experience comes ye old wisdom.
That which can only earned through timeless choices which can be make or break.
A risk not taken, is a risk not known.

The year is 1658 A.L.(After Landing)how and why we originally got has been lost through our ability to recover the data off of the ships we land here on. I know what you thinking how could that ever happen? Well we discovered how too keep the body from aging while traveling great distances in space. I shouldn't say we I should they did, our ancestors as you will. They called it being put in statis.
Our goal as a species was locate and colonize a habitable planet and map our way too it. But our star charts were also lost during the landing. We don't know how long we've travel to get here. Earth is most certainly gone now. A burning mercury so they tell me.

I've heard stories of what earth was like. Great cities made of metal, wires, satailites, radio waves connecting all the people through all forms of devices. Wild life such bears, eagles, whales, sharks dolphin. Earth legends lives on through word of mouth and our books. I wish we had more information on what was our previous planet. Our technology is primitative in comparison. I read it only took 100 years to make that jump but it came at a great and deadly cost. From what I understand earth was dying. The planet only had 1000 years, before it was no longer habitable. I read it was getting so hot most areas were turning into deserts. Except those below the 30 degree latitudes of the northern and southern hemisphere.
...

Without a doubt.
No second guesses.
The raven lashes out.
...

If I find my way back home, would you even remember me.
Feeling like a distant star.
Loves loss over the years.
Walking into faded photograph, if only to bring the color back.
...

The only time we find closure, is when we are satisfied with a past part of our life and don't have the need to revisit it in our own minds.
Closure is about more then more then moving on from death.
It is about coming to a point where you feel no guilt or regret.
Rarely is this achieved, but like any good book we must attempt to make room in our lives for the next chapter.
