As you may have noticed, I've kinda done away with the oak tree theme...it just wasn't working anymore. I may have something new with it now that it's starting to get toward spring time...not sure. but anyway...on to my next installment.

Fate My Oppressor
by: Eric Fulmer

A burning pain creeps through my heart
As the reality sets in,
That all my dreams I used to wish
Have been stolen from within.

Stolen by fortune, fate my oppressor
Conspires against my aspiring's.
Killing off the future hopes
Of all I have been desiring.

The Storm
by: Eric Fulmer

Driving drops of water splashing;
The rain falls all around me.
Sharp flashes of light illuminating;
The lightning strikes all around me.
Deep voices of the skies rumbling;
The thunder sounds all around me.

These three combined create a force
That few can reckon with
A powerful, majestic, beautiful storm
That both inspires and destroys.
