Angst

This nibbling unrest

Settling in my soul

Eating away at my peace of mind

Boredom filling my bones

With lightning bolts

Snapping at the slightest aggravation

Need to run away

And release this energy

Before the nibbling turns to gnawing

And the tattered frays of my sanity break

Leaving me in my darkest place

Alone and frightened

With a smile on my face

Defend Her

A caring heart
Though she may hide
A ready smile
Though often viewed as snide

A rock she’s been
Through all tribulations
Loose drawn or win
Her love is freely donated

A ready defender
Of all she holds dear
No matter the contender
She shows no fear

Though she often plays a fool’s like
She’s real quite smart
She’ll make any sacrifice
For those in her heart

But this you didn’t know
That dread fateful night
As you approached her home
You weren’t prepared for her to put up a fight

But you were quite settled
To cause her great harm
A family left nettled
And taking up arms

For we will not rest
Until you’re brought down
You’ve become this clan’s greatest quest
A nationwide showdown

Our rock, our defender,
Our sister, and more
We’ll raise up to defend her
Until we’ve evened the score
