CI

Her Charming Personality 

I love how down-to-earth my beloved is, and that ain't no fallacy.  

You see, she doesn't let herself fall prey to any silly fantasy.  

Her point of view is quite practical and unique.  

So when about my dreams and hopes I speak,  

She does her best to take me back to reality,  

And she does so with the utmost gentleness and neutrality.

Her intention is quite pure

Just like her love, undoubtedly true,

By sticking to the real world she shows me the right path

The one I should take to get my desired aftermath 

And I repay her generosity by clearing the skies

Kinda darkened and cloudy that prevent the rays of sunshine from blessing her gorgeous brown eyes

I must most definitely also tell  

That I love her idealistic side as well.  

For she aims for nothing but perfection,  

And she fails not to her predilection.  

Though at times she might feel overwhelmed and tired,  

Never has she given up, and that I deeply admire.

If you ask me, we both have hit the jackpot.  

She got a loyal and romantic man who loves her way more than just a lot,  

And I got a loyal and lovely woman from whom I learn many things.  

I'll be her fierce dragon and fight all foes for our sake till the bell rings,  

All the while she rejoices in the rewards that being so awesome brings her.  

I gladly live to love, serve, protect, and spoil her; that's just how things are.

CII

Something

There is something

That in your words I find mesmerizing,

In your voice, quite appealing, and figuratively colorizing.

There is a story in your eyes so captivating,

Beyond them, a soul constantly burning

With the passion of our love so innocent and addicting,

Which we spend days feeding and reactivating.

There is something

Within you that's constantly brimming,

A golden heart, a mind so interesting.

There's in there a personality so unique and fascinating,

Something that draws me to you, something also motivating.

For I find you mysterious and precious, I think you're worth illustrating

In paintings of all kinds, and also immortalizing

In hundreds of poems which I gladly spend hours & days elaborating.

There's so much I love about you

There's something of you I see in everything I do

There's that which I take with me everywhere I go

There's a heart constantly pounding reminding me that I love you so

So, so much that the feelings overflow.

But no matter how much I write

Nor how much inspiration I get from the beautiful night,

Or from the warm and cozy daylight,

I still lack the word or words to describe you.

It might be because girls like you exist either none or a few

So nobody has yet came up with a word

Meaningful enough, but that'd be absurd.

In any case, the best way, is calling you by your nick or name,

For only it can summon into our mortal minds your goddess-like image, my dame.

Oh how much I love you, my perfect (self-proclaimed imperfect) Queen.

May we in each other's embrace always find a shelter serene.

CIII

Nine tails

With the stone Sessho-seki now broken,

An ancient spirit has been released, newly awoken.

A sorceress quite knowledgeable, powerful, and utterly beautiful.

A nine-tailed trickster with a lust for chaos and power,

A golden-furred fox who makes even the bravest cower.

She is irresistible, dangerous, of behavior outrageous.

Many kingdoms downfall she plotted,

From all wrongdoers she became the most wanted.

She got hunted down and killed,

Yet her soul from this realm never departed.

Running away and hidden she lived,

Majestic Tamamo-no-mae, finally freed, may your soul be now redeemed.

CIV

Chaos King

Relentless, he fights against all creatures,  

Fiercely, he crushes devils and deities,  

Rebelling against the one that cursed him with his own features.  

Born as a man, reborn as a hybrid, and ready to kill,  

The Demi-Fiend rises from the wasteland,  

To shape a brand new world and bend all to his will.  

He shall take down Lucifer and all who dare to face him,  

With the support of his loyal Pixie,  

In bloody battles utterly grim.  

Looking for a reason, fighting for survival,  

He instills fear in heaven and hell,  

By taking down every single rival.  

Kagutsuchi's tower he'll climb,  

The dark tattoos all over his body will shine,  

As he manages to become king of chaos for a lifetime.

Another Poem About Her

Every time I had nearby a gun, a rope, or a knife,

I felt the shivers, the disturbing need to end my life.

But when she came along, these feelings vanished;

Her love, from my life, all my demons banished.

Her mere presence,

With her heart's luminescence,

Makes my life's path clearer.

My desires and goals, as I move, seem to be getting nearer.

I owe my newly found determination

To her affection, patience, and dedication.

Her pragmatic yet loving personality

Was a helping hand in times of need, so was her mentality.

Least I could do is gift her my heart,

Turn my love for her into an attempt to do poetry or some art.

And of course, serve, pamper, and protect;

I love her with my entire being, my Queen so perfect.

CVI

What is it that you feel?

It's okay to not understand love.

I don't understand it neither.

It's not like we can wait for it to drop down from above,

Or hold it as a physical thing we can study either.

To me, it's crystal clear what I feel,

But if your heart is still lost in the mist,

I'll be your sidekick in this ordeal,

And also your loving partner, always ready to assist.

I don't mind waiting

Till you find The Answer.

In the meantime, I'll keep innovating,

And soon enough I'll become your heart's favorite dancer.

As our hearts beat in synchrony,

I'll keep loving and cheering you on, my dear,

And as you progress in your journey,

I'll deliver sweetness and cuteness to clear your path from fear.

As you walk this long road

To self-discovery and understanding,

You'll be closer to also decode

And get why my love for you is always expanding.

But alas, you're so used to being yourself

That you can't recognize your own awesomeness.

The same thing happens to myself

That I must also confess.

Anyway, this poem shall come to an end

As you imagine yourself walking through a long,

Pathway leading to inner realms you can't quite comprehend,

A pathway ascending to the light where you truly belong.

CVII

Till death do us part

Walking side by side

Through the battlefield of life, we'll be.

Within each other's hearts, will we reside,

As with the eyes of love, across the mist, we get to see

A path that goes far and beyond a bright blue sea,

A paradise for those who want to be free,

A future as pleasant as drinking a warm cup of tea

Under the shade of a lovely cherry blossom tree.

That is, to some degree

The future I foresee,

And that I want to guarantee

To her, my sweet pea.

May the gods hear the plea

Of their humblest devotee

And strengthen, with their blessing, my mentality,

To make our dreams reality.

Oh, Yani, may we be together,

Not just till death do us part but forever.

CVIII

The Meeting

My mother, of your existence, is aware.

She saw you rekindle the fire within me,

Yet I deny it; opening up to her I yet don't dare,

For our love is a hidden treasure kept safe at the sea.

She saw beyond my curtain of lies.

Each time I said I found my reason to live,

She knew I was talking about you;

Every time I said in myself I could start to believe,

She knew it was thanks to you.

She knows you're the one behind my joy,

The co-author of this new chapter in my life,

The one who owns and nurtures the heart of this boy.

She's aware you're the end of my seemingly eternal strife.

Instead of using this against me,

She half-jokingly asked, "Who or what is this Reason

That changed your cold winter for a warmer season?"

Knowing very well the gods heard my plea.

You two would surely get along,

For you are similar in many aspects:

Practical, pragmatic, intellectual, and strong.

You two deserve the highest of respects.

Needless to say,

You two are really beautiful,

Also humble, kind, and loving,

But you two struggle with your greatness accepting.

How shall I end this poem

When I have so much to say?

Just know you two are the sun of my every day.

This is just the beginning, Yani, of our love's anthem.

CIX

Democalypse

Demons flood the world’s cities;

Men beg and pray to their deities.

Chaos offers to all species

Unconditional freedom, anarchy.

The righteous divine descend

From the heavens, Olympus, and more,

To help Law mankind defend.

This alignment fights to end the holy war.

The Neutral survivors, however, stay

To preserve and empower humanity.

Gods and Fiends they’ll slay

Till the end of this calamity.

As the ideologies clash,

Heroes will rise, yet only one,

Born from the ash,

Will reshape the world to his will and be the judge.

CX

Adorable Water Maiden

Under bodies of water of all kinds,

Not only one, but many creatures reside.

Divinely beautiful they are, heaven-eyed,

Innocent ladies called Undines, in nature live, run, and hide.

Not out of evil, but to preserve nature and the identity of

Elemental folks who nurture her with their pure love.

Stanzas I write, as one of them kindly rests on me, like a gentle dove.
