Reading westeros history

The desire 
To parade everything i know
As cannon,
Indisputable fact,
To quote from it 
Be the expert of classics
And lay down my judgement
Is insane

And this is just fantasy.

No wonder,
With our vast heritage of
Real classics
The desire to gain expertise
Over grandly told stories
Took over
Our ancestors
And prevented them from
Seeking the real world
For confirmation

is it narcissistic

to binge on your own poems?

Like the yin yang

We
Chase each other
In pointless circles

Only in apparant harmony

Getting thru' to u

Of course
I could ignore you
Shut out the pain you give me
Pretend it doesn't affect me

Instead of constantly trying
to communicate,
to make things better,
to try and make you understand
how you make me feel

But if i ignored you
What would be the difference between
You
And the countless others
I keep out of my bubble
With a screen of politeness

On a hot summer day

With the shadows of trees
Making pretty dappled patterns
On a dusty road

Life almost seems a blessing,
Despite its trials,
A chance like none other
That i would brave
Just to see what it has to offer.
Even its sorrows
Are merely
The gift of experience that
Without a life
I would have no chance of knowing
Yes, 
If given a choice
Between this life of heady ups and 
Breathtaking downs
And a bland heaven
I would choose it,
This uncertain life

But only on a hot summer day
When the sun
Threatens to burn the 
Hair off of my skin

Seeking

Givers in ordinary life
We are both seekers in love
Which is,
Unfortunately,
The easiest way to
Wear each other's kindness out

Leave me alone

I follow my heart

And if you cannot understand why
There is no way i can explain to you
