Biography

Hi I'm sherry, fellow poet and reader. I've been writing for a while now and have decided to share my work with others not only to help people by giving them something they can relate to but also because it has been a dream of mine to because an actual author one day. I've written for years using Wattpad where I published my first book. I also write on Miraquill and Poetizer where I have found enough support to widen the horizon. I hope you enjoy my work and know that all support is appreciated <3

Time

Cloudy the smoke surrounding the face of the troubled  Uncertainty upon the red drenched sky made the air taste of fear  For never had such a sky been witnessed  The mark of hell seemed as if it were burned upon the clouds Was humanities time finally over  A trembling breath intake I took  Clenching hands that threatened to shake  The fear was tense in the air  The screams could be heard from miles away  As towns and the people burned  A beautiful horror  Then ultimately it was as if time stood still  There before me a ball of light so bright  It could be compared to a star   I was so transfixed by it's beauty I couldn't feel it  My skin  Was melting away from my muscle  Yet my eyes were transfixed by the light  Like a moth  It wasn't until the flames hit my nerves   That I truly began to feel the pain  It came in waves  The fire cauterizing the wounds as soon as it burned me  I was watching the world being destroyed  Before my very eyes  I couldn't cry or I would have  The fire had made my tear ducts dry  I couldn't smile if I wanted to  My mouth was already burning away  And before I fell to my knees  My bones slowly burning away to ashes  I got to see the stars fall to earth  And then an explosion 

Star

Beautiful moments of complete symphony  I allow these good moments to flow into me The highs and the lows of our muddled past  Makes me wonder if this will even last My mind bright as fireworks  And my soul has been through the works It's a situation that all but amazes  And I remember the reoccurring phases  You who has been troubled before finally begins to trust  In a loner of a girl, darkness ready to bust  Once a caterpillar now a butterfly The brightness you brought far from a lie  It's almost as if you let my demons out  I'm now able to climb out of the cage and walk about  Feet once bloody leaving tracks in the sand  I've struggled to get where I now finally stand  I couldn't trust because of the pain  Every waking moment it always threatened to make me insane Whispered promises in my ear  Makes me throw up the wall to hold on to what's dear  A lost soul wanting to sit and see a many the star  As if the lights can comfort them from afar  Clouds of smoke trailing away in the wind  Now at complete ease no longer feeling as if in a pen    White aura framing ones face in the light of the moon  Lights above twinkling like a pirates doubloon  Moments so rare that they're held close to cherish Trust being found while the insecurities perish   Some thing so beautiful but hard to find  Walking through each day the stars what they pine
