His Angel - A Poem

The King will lose all sight of reality when he meets his angel

His Angel - A Poem
pixababy

Vowed to be a ruler that beholds an oar of great power, he falls to his knees in defeat

He becomes weak at the sight of something resembling simplicity

What is this you say, he, the ruler of many and most powerful has somehow become helpless?

Surely you are mistaken for there has never been a full moon nor an artless sunrise that has seen him in the weakest of states due to the appearance of an angel

This angel walks with the wind beneath her feet and a halo above the crown of her head

This angel that he sees remains nameless, she posses no interaction with the King, yet she has complete control over him

She has never spoken a word to him, and yet, he has never stopped speaking only the sweetest of words for her

In the King's eye his angel can do no wrong, for she is the most beautiful and breathtaking figure without expressing any interaction

She has an oar of great confident and mesmerization in which she takes over the minds of the great rulers for she can control the weak and mold the living

It is clear that the King is simply one of the many souls she distracts, but he sees her as his one and only love

In a room filled with people, he can only see her in the crowd, he preaches to her to direct her heart and mind in a path that will lead to him, for he himself is in need of someone to love him back

She notices him, and senses he is desperate for love, love from any other human being that has the capability of love and a beating heart

The King is so weak at this point, he has been without love for so long that any affection from anyone or anything will occupy his mind and affect his reality

But what he doesn’t know is that she isn’t human, rather, a figment of his imagination

Sure she may display a figure that resembles the perfect angel, but that’s just the case

The King has been broken for so long that his mind has begun playing tricks on him because he can see and feel these feelings for an angel that no one else can see

She isn’t this goddess that has come to mesmerize him, nor distract him from his kingdom, she has appeared as a figment of his imagination from a loss of affection

He is so far deep in feelings, that there seems to be no hope in his return to reality

Someone who has great wealth and power over the many of people are truly weak and lonely on the inside

So he stands tall, but slouched when alone, proud of his kingdom, but saddened when in his lonely castle, awaiting for someone to come and love him back

But no one could ever love a pathetic king that simply holds a love for the beauty of a human rather than who they truly are because he knows he truly is one of the most vial creatures at heart

He stands before his people and admits,

No man could lead a single army with his head strayed from reality and heart filled with desperation and regret

So he stands before his people and resigns

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
