Fallen Flower
A single flower falls;
It is a symbol of passion left behind.
Like a demonic plague;
It sweeps love off its feet,
Crushing the soul. The heart.
The flower falls;
It will die as all things do,
Passion to the world of men,
That fades as time goes by.
Fallen flower.

The Screams
When the screams fill the air;
Only time to run in fear,
No other option but to hear,
We will never march from here.
We wait till daybreak comes;
So we can have another run,
While dodging death like everyone,
And watching time pass with our fun.
Our blood curdles from the fight;
When our bodies quiver with pure fright,
We hope the daybreak lasts all night,
While dark creatures come out to bite.
But night falls once again;
The screams return and cause our strain,
They fill the air with death and pain,
Life and death are both the same.
The screams.

This Hollow World
This world is full of billions;
Yet we each are so alone,
We 'pretend friends' and us 'fakers',
We are as hollow as a bone.
And alone we cry at night;
And alone we cry,
Because we are so hollow,
We have nothing left to hide.
In our massive cities;
Everything is a rush,
Never stop to say hello,
No one has time for us.
The way of modern life;
The Computer, our money, a car,
These are but material things that should have no meaning,
But it shows how hollow we as humans are.
As I write this poem;
I think of all my classmates,
Sucked in by money, violence, drugs,
Its them, as hollows, I really hate.
This hollow world.

Star Wars Empire version.
Founded through turmoil,
Constituted in fear;
The Galactic Empire started from here.
Constructon is started on the Death Star.
Through assanitations and scandals;
Chancellor Palpatine gambles,
Outlawing the Jedi;
And destroying their Council.
Order 66 is given. The Emperor rises.
And with the Clone Wars widely ended,
And time of chaos supposedly mended;
A a new era had now been rendered;
One of security and peace is tended.
The Empire becomes the official government.
But as the Death Star is near completion;
Rebel systems fear the inclinations,
So they steal plans for that Death Station,
And run from the evil galactic nation.
Darth Vader captures the Tantive IV and Princess Leia.
To Tattooine they fled,
C-3PO & R2-D2 run instead;
The Death Star plans within R2's head,
They find themselves in Luke Skywalker's shed.
Leia is interrogted by Darth Vader.
To Obiwan R2 runs,
Across the desert under twin suns,
The droid is stopped by Luke who clung;
As Sand people attack them with their guns.
Obiwan rescues them and goes to Alderaan.
Caught by the Death Star the Falcon lands,
Obiwan comes up with brilliant escape plan,
Rescue the princess, and find the boss man,
C-3PO stays with the tin can.
Obiwan fights Vader. Han, Luke and Cewie find the princess.
"Get behind me, get behind me!",
Shout Han as he shoots a troopers knee,
Meanwhile Luke looks for Leia's prison key,
The only way to rescue she.
"Down the garbage shute, flyboy."
The walls close in and its goldenrods turn,
Stop the walls before they churn,
They scream and shout not in concern,
3PO thinks they are dead men.
The Falcon heads for Yavin IV.
Obiwan swings his blade,
But years on a desert have made him fade,
Vader clashes with his bionic hands made,
The Force chooses Obiwan for as a comrade.
The Death Star appraches. X-wings rise.
"All wings report in.",
The fighter pilots all sing,
Ready to battle a Death Star and win,
Only most die before ka-pring!
The trench.
Luke use the force,
Don't let Vader change your course,
Stay on target without remorse,
Then fire your torpedos and watch your reverse.
The Death Star Explodes.
Luke, Han and Chewie get their medals,
Music rises as R2 enters,
Cheers rise up and send us nutters,
The credits roll and we feel gutted.
Play Star Wars and have fun,
Special thanks to george Lucas for this one,
Time has passed it will live on,
In every fan, everyone.

This is very messy and has several story points, that were poetized, cut out for pace and length.
SW is one of those films that doesn't come around often, It is the love we share that that keeps it alive.
This is dedicated to the entire cast and crew of the first Star Wars production.
May they be remembered. And rejoyced.

The Screams II
In the eerie shadows of the night;
The screams they fill the air with fright,
Stopping humans in their sight,
Eclipsing darkness is their right.
When morning comes we try for sure;
To escape this hellish place of lure,
We fight to try and reach the door,
But ungodly forces stop our soar.
When dusk comes all hope is lost;
The dead arise above the moss,
A broken statue of the cross,
Is covered in dripping blood and frost.
The cold night air comes again;
Bringing screams of death and pain,
No-longer will my love remain,
Because I think I've gone insane.
When screams come we run and hide;
From creatures who have gone and died,
Making people want to cry,
Death and fear not pushed aside.
The screams.
-Kevin Traynor (Jedireaper)
When a Jedi Falls
When we fight evil,
We fight for justice,
We do not fight for exhilleration,
We do not kill for revenge.
When we do battle,
We battle for the sake of good,
We do not harm needlessly for evil,
We do not fight to end lives.
When we die,
We die with honor,
We do not involve the innocent,
We do not wish revenge.
When a Jedi falls,
These words run through their minds.
-Kevin Traynor
Not my best... duh, but I'm just writing to pass the time. 😉
Consequences of Sin
Stairs up to the stars,
Stairs up to the universe,
They lead to heaven.
Seemingly endless.
They twist and turn,
Spiral and slant,
Changing direction for every pure heart.
Endless.
Sinners try and walk the steps,
Can't keep their balence and fall to their fate,
The Devil looks up hungry for more.
The endless trek.
You keep walking,
Hope you don't fall,
It causes you to think about life, about sin.
Did I sin?
I continue walking,
losing confidance with each step,
My mind races in deep thought, memories of my life passed.
Did I sin?
After hours of climbing you see the light,
But my mind still races as more loose their balence,
I find the answer I seek.
Did I sin? Yes.
I hope against hope I had been forgiven,
My hand becomes shakey,
Tears fill my eyes.
Somehow I knew I hadn't.
And as I fell away from the stairs,
I look up and see the horror in your eyes,
The tears on your face, you knew.
I'm sorry.
Your eye's fill with sorrow as your arm streatches for me,
An unknown force drags me down, faster,
You try and run down the steps to reach me.
Too late.
I'm sorry my love,
But they are my sins,
I can't let you have them.
I fall faster, exceeding the spectrum of light.
Sunddenly... Pain.
Consequences of sin.
-Kevin Traynor
The Screams III
The night passes as before;
The screams are there beyond the door,
Don't look or you will hit the floor,
Our bones shiver to the core.
The sun rises on a new day;
Casting clouds above in bloody rays,
Causing frost to dew away,
Giving right to a new way.
We all fight to stay alive;
Shooting creatures till they're nigh,
As we try to escape the hive,
Olny the time will count us by.
The night falls fast this time around;
Making sure the screams are bound,
While those remaining run to ground,
Hiding from the undead sounds.
Blood drips from my finger tips;
While I look at the dead bodies quick,
The sight of gore making me feel sick,
The blood glistened in my grip.
The pain and screams filled the air;
As another dead night we have to fare,
Blood splattering across my hair,
I bring my weapon down to bear.
Screams ring out in my ears;
Only pain can cause that fear,
I look upon darkness as a peer,
"I hope my time to go ain't here."
The screams.
-Kevin Traynor
The Screams IV
This night is tarnished by the dead;
Our screams no-longer being said,
We tried to survive a week of dread,
Our blood pools around us in red.
The ungodly hour of the night;
No-longer held our screams of fright,
Given up with-out a fight,
Finally having lost our might.
The sun rose on the bloody scene;
Shedding light on what had been,
The time passes without a seam,
Like a kind of phycotic dream.
Dusk falls and night arises;
Nothing moves there is no crisis,
Only birds with great likeness,
My eyes snap open with dark brightness.
The call of flesh I can't ignore;
It was something I do not adore,
The hunt begins and dark forces abhor,
Its another night of blood colour.
The screams fill the air again;
Not mine not yours but anothers pain,
See death spattered red with rain,
Yes I definately am insane.
The screams.
