The dim yellow sunshine sprung from the deep within the hollow meadow inside her heart and the color resonated into a vivid light. The high tide of the angels voices poured out in a melodic beauty and rose over the dark hills, even though her new hope did not revive the deceades plants, it did bring a new ray of life. Her mother once told her "belive in the happier days to alleviate the memories of the bad ones", and now after all the pain she went though she finally began to experiance her mother's words.
SNK
It was springtime, and the three kids in the fields inside Wall Maria were sitting under a tall oak tree. Armin was sprawled over the soft blanket,they were all sitting on, reading his grandfather’s book. Mikasa peered over her red scarf at the boy, who was looking at clouds, with his bold green eyes.Mikasa was struck by curiosity and wondered what was intriguing about the clouds.
“ Eren. What is so amazing about the clouds? Tell me.” The boy did not move. He sat there for a second and finally answered.“ The shapes are the most interesting thing about the clouds. Many clouds can make many shapes and then a great big picture can be seen after all them come together .”
Mikasa tilted her head.“ I see.” Eren smiles.“ What do you see Mikasa?” Mikasa grabbed Eren’s hand.She answered quickly without a second thought or any hesitation. “ Eren’s. I see a bunch of Erens.” Eren frowned.“I don’t get how you see…”
“ I can.” Mikasa said. “ See they are all Eren’s” she said sweeping her hand across the expanse of the horizon dotted with the white puffs. “That one is a happy Eren. And that one’s scared Eren. That one’s sad Eren. That one’s Angry Eren. And that one's my favorite it’s sleeping Eren.”
Eren turned away from the clouds and pulled off Mikasa’s hands. “ I think you might need to get help”. Armin tugged on Mikasa’s sleeve and snapped his fingers at Eren. “ Look Guys. The Survey Corps… are walking down the street.” All of them turned and watched the survey corps like small ants walking down the country road on there way back after a expedition.
Eren’s eyes lit up and he ,scrambling, pushed himself up with his palms off the ground. “ Armin! Mikasa! Let’s hurry up so we can see them up close. Come on!” Eren jumped up onto his heels and ran to the fence that bordered the road. The corps slowly got closer and closer and Eren could see the commander at the head on his horse. Armin and Mikasa climbed next to Eren on the fence.
“Oh, boy look it’s the Commander. Look at the people around him they look so strong.”Armin shook his head and pointed out something. “I don’t think strong would be the best way to describe them Eren. See, most of them have bandages on and the ones that don’t look very grim.” The little Armin was right. A majority of the soldiers could be seen with bloody bandages and a few were unscathed but had sour faces.
Eren smiled. “ Those are just like battle scars on a wild alley born cat. They show strength of survival and perseverance.” Armin looked at Eren. “Did you just quote something your Father said because those words sound to smart to be original?” Eren looked insulted and crossed his arms tightly. “ Well, yes there not mine but even though there not it still sounds like something I would say anyway. And if you want to know who said that it’s Mr. Shaker, who is like one of the rare pro-survey corps supporters. My father would never say something like that because he thinks the corps is a ’ waste of civilized manner and character that could of been used within the Walls.’Yeah, that’s what my father thinks but I know better than him. ”
Armin frowned and he looked like he was going to ignore the question he was thinking but then he was so confused at what Eren was saying he had to ask. “ So, Mr. Shaker said that which makes sense. Though wasn’t your father for the Survey Corps. at one point. Also didn’t he know a man from the corps who introduced or acquainted him to your mother.” Eren shrugged his shoulders and at the sound of the yell of an officer all them turned towards the road.
At the foot of one of the horses was a small lady laying in front of the commander begging for him to answer her. An officer to the right kept yelling at the lady to move but the commander held up his hand to the young man silencing him. “ Woman” said the commander. “What is the matter? What makes you need to throw yourself down in harm's way for?” The small lady lifted her head up pulling at the tattered shawl around her head and whippering violently. “I nee-d...to know...If my son die’ for a good cause. Did he live….his life...and die for...what is good? Or is it like...the others keep ON TELL-IN’ ME! That..MY SON...my little baby...die’ for NOTHIN’” She lifted her hands in the air and held her face up letting the tears run down her dusty face. “Please tell me. COMMANDER ANSWER ME YOU FOOL. Don’t be a coward. Face me a broken mother and don’t lie in my face when you tell me the truth.” The commander smiled. “Old woman I applaud your enthusiasm. Stand up and let me tell you the good news.”
She began to rise slowly and with her tunic sleeve she wiped her face. “ I have been told your son was a brave one. He had the skill of three men but even he fell. Though when he died…” With a violent swipe the Commander put right fist over his heart and the other around him resting on his lower back. “I HAVE NO DOUBT IN MY MIND HE DIED WITHOUT FEELING THE DEDICATION HE DEVOTED WAS WASTED BUT INSTEAD FULFILLING AND TRUE. WOMAN, YOUR SON DIED NEXT TO HIS BROTHERS AND SISTERS WITH THE SAME MORAL AND LET ME TELL YOU NOT ONE OF THEM DIED IN VAIN. THEY WERE HEROES TO A GREAT CAUSE. HE’S LIFE WAS ANOTHER STEP CLOSER TO DEFEATING THE TITANS. HE GAVE US AND HUMANITY MORE OF A CHANCE OF DEFEATING ARE ENEMIES. WOMAN DON'T YOU CRY BECAUSE NOW YOU KNOW WHAT HE PUT HIS LIFE TOWARDS. HE WAS A WARRIOR!”
All of the soldiers watched the lady’s eyes widen and began to fill with tears. She covered her face and sobbed. “That’s what I was afraid of.” Then the old woman turned and ran. The man at the right of the commander chuckled. “ If that’s what she was afraid of. Then why did she ask? It is obvious she knew the answer already .” The commander nodded. “ She’s a mother. She needed validation.” With the roadblock gone the men started to move again.
Eren watched and tried to looked at every one of their faces. He saw some soldiers he recognized but most were unfamiliar. Armin wanted to go read his book again because he lost interest. Though Eren kept saying he should stay. Mikasa agreed with Armin the best soldiers had passed. Eren sighed and jumped of the fence. He began to walk back towards the tree when he heard the psychotic laughter from behind him.
“ Hey, Shorty. What do think of this face.” Eren turned around and saw a woman who could actually be a man, rolled there eyes up so only white showed and there mouth open like a drooling dog. The small man next to them scowled at them. “Oi, Four Eyes is it bad for me to think that you look more bearable this way rather than you regularly do. The man next to the raven snorted with his big nose. “Ha.Ha.Ha. Levi. Does that mean I have to do this face everytime I see your sad self?”
The man named Levi rolled his eyes and leaned over grabbing the glasses that was tied to its face and pulled them forward and let go. “OW! You...ACK!” It fell off it’s horse when it didn’t see a low hanging branch in time. The man with big nose began to laugh loudly grabbing the attention of a big blonde officer with just as big of eyebrows. “ Hey, Levi you need to stop being a disrupting cadet distracting others as well as knocking them of horses.” Levi faced the blonde man and gave him a disapproving glare.
“ Don’t tell me what to do with my annoying comrades. I told you I respect what you tell me when it has to do with fighting. Though if it has to deal with the pain in my butts than you know i'm not going to take any of their crap.Commander.” The man with the large nose and four eyes sitting up in the grassy ground watched them both finding their arguing entertaining. The large nosed man chuckled and said
“ Erwin you can be a little demanding Eren watched as the small man held his glare for a little while longer before yelling out for the men needed to resume. The four eyes bounced up quickly and scrambled up its horse. The three trotted away on their horses while Erwin watched the back of Levi’s head before moving on as well.
The three kids waited till the last of the green backs of the men were just bobbing dots in the distance. Eren smiled and turned toward his friends. “ When I grow up I want to join the Survey Corps!”
My Light in the Night
I am Sol or your giant yellow star in the sky “The Sun.” I was born a long time ago and back then I had few friends. Many of them just liked to tease me and run all around me, or they would die out. Though one day I met my greatest friend that danced with the planet we both shared. I hated these Waxing and Waning Gibbous and the Full Moon phases that Luna went through because she always was distorted from my view. Every time she was full I felt she was laughing behind the earth or singing with the stars. What I heard from Phobos and Deimos, the brothers that encompassed Mars, is they see Luna weeping and the stars all around give her room because they do not know how to consul her. I find this ridiculous because I just know she is enjoying her time without me and playing games with my heart. I decided next time Luna is New I would talk to her about what really happens when she is hiding behind the earth’s slight protection.
I started to think about the conversation when I saw her as a Waning Crescent. I had to make sure I said what I wanted to hear answered. After a long wait Luna became New, and by Juno, she was so beautiful bathing in my radiance. Her curves we all shining and her paleness shone so brightly the rays touched the depths of my heart. Her beauty had brought the thought of how could I be so mad at her; she is innocence. I heard her voice echo within my flames. She was unhappy. “Darling,” I said, and I saw her shiver at my corona that I gave off from a strong impulse inside me. (I think it’s another form of my excitement.)Then I noticed her craters were unusally darker. (Some part of her that I overlook, but I think it adds to her so much.) “Hunny.” she sniffed. She looked at me, and I saw pain. “I was talking to Earth and he heard that you think I have some kind of perverse relation with my friends.,” I swore I heard her crust creak from holding back on me. I knew she wanted to scream at me, but she was too good for that. She was as sweet as her rival venus’s rains. I released some more pressure from my gut then spoke. ” I should be careful when I talk out loud to myself. I have to remember I am not the only one who can hear myself.” I chuckled which caused a series of flares to go off all across me. ” I know it sounds bad, but I had my reasons to believe you have been doing things when I can’t always see you. ” I smiled, and Luna kept silent waiting for more. ” I believe others would not want to miss out on approaching a gorgeous creation like you.” Luna quaked. Her brightness dulled or was that just me? Finally, she spoke. ” I don’t know what nasty things you think I’m made of but I’m not all Sulfur. I have good qualities, Sol. I.” She stopped. Then all her crates began to leak. ” You know Sol. It is impressive to make me cry oceans when It’s highly impossible to support any kind of water on me. It tells you much.” I stared and watched her melt out streams. I was fixated since the only running water was on earth itself. I smiled. I’m an idiot. ” You love me, don’t you? Luna. You think were are worth more than friends?” She gasped, and it felt like she lost her sense of emotions. Then they all came rushing back. ” Of course I love you! Sol, I have cried every time I’m Full because I can’t see you. I just reflect your light which makes me slightly happy because it reminds me of you. Though I don’t dance like I usually do when I am with you, and all the stars around me are dormant and don’t do anything for me. They don’t even talk. I’m sick of being stuck into a cycle where I always know I’ll be miserable when that time comes. I don’t have anything invested in my endless circle of life except you Sol. You are my internal. That keeps me running in tune till you become out of step and we both dance of final dance.” I felt particles around me spinning if she had said any more I would have blown her away from the intensity of my supercharged corona. I longed to grasp my Luna but all had were speechlessness and indescribable feelings in me wanting to be expressed. I felt them multiply on top of me. The Sunspots, the ugly things that produce when I am sad. “Luna. Forgive Me. I have no way to offer you, my Love, when your Full but I can give it every time you are New. Every time you come, we will renew our proclamation of love till the vastness of the universe hears about it. Even if it takes the farthest planets in other galaxies to hear about it by the time we both have died out will still be the strongest lovers of our time. I Luna will always love you more than I can really know and I hope you will do the same for me .” La Luna gushed waterfalls and shied away into her emotions. She stayed like that till Sol asked her again about the stars again. ” So you really never betrayed me for the stars, did you? I’m glad.” Luna whimpered, but she managed to sputter out her answer finalizing the last of this discussion. ” No, I did. I betrayed you with the stars because you are not my friend of mine, Sol, they are. The stars are my tiny dancers. You cost more than a simple friendship. You are Sol, Mi Amor, my bright light in the night sky.”
Who is the confided?
To think you actually knew who was behind it all.
Aside from the silky lace twisted around my eyes.
Oh how you thought it was all part of the disguise.
Others wear their mask like I.
Only what you see is not a lie.
Frolicking limbs flap happily around
Laughs dispel when we fall to the ground
Take it as a joke but do not loose from a trip
For sanity never slips
Out the cult’s noose so thick
Never take it lightly
Your belly my tickle
All will March in pradas till the energy trickles
Beware
For I wear
My façade now everywhere
My perversity
Became my natural reality
Come on down and have a drink
Pitch satin on bodies is displayed.
We dance amidst the discordant Parade.
I invite you to come and join the Masquerade.
