The Essence of Wind by Chogojyo, literature

Literature

The Essence of Wind

‘Silence is always the key to survival,’ thinks a young orange haired boy. He walks slowly through a crammed market, anticipating the guards’ entrances and searching for the right goods. ‘Bingo,’ he thinks again as he spots fine jewelry. ‘This will catch a golden gil anywhere I go; now I won’t have to worry about finding food for a while.’ The boy ducks down and begins quickening his pace. As he approaches, he notices the watchful eye of the clerk behind the table. He straightens his back and approaches the table with false dignity. “Good day, sir; I see you have many a gem here.” The boy s

The Essence of Earth

“Another day, another story, another reality for me to live in,” sighs a boy in white. Staring out the window of a stone-walled classroom, the boy recites a quote from his favorite book, “In a world where darkness rules over the light, four men stand forever as the Shining Warriors. Warriors that defend the livelihood of those unable to protect themselves,” sighing again, the boy stares into a tree outside, “Oh, how I wish I was one of those strong men...” A glimmer catches the boy’s eye and he stares deeper, trying to see what it is. Finally, he stands up, “Excuse me, professor, I need to use the was

The Essence of Fire

“Warrior of Light, grand savior of the worlds, bring back the holy shine of our forgotten lands with the blade I place in your hand.” “What…?” Awakened by the sunlight filtering through his window, the boy lay alone in his bed. Staring at the ceiling above, he thinks, “What was that all about, what sword..?” Clenching his fist as he sits up he feels a rough, but firm, object in his grasp. He looks down to see a red gem. The jewel is hard as diamond, yet has the essence of a flame. Feeling its warmth, the boy sets it upon his desk and readies himself for class. He fumbles with his leather bag as the str

What I'm Not.

I’m not an artist I’m not of that kind I use my words I speak through my mind I’m no author Though I write what you read I jot down these rhythms To excuse my needs I’m not a tourist I rarely leave home I wish to get away From all that I’ve known I’m not a fighter Since I’ve already seen I’ve bloodied these hands I’ve become unclean Think what you will I’ll never give a care But I’m not an artist So please be aware.

Return by Chogojyo, literature

Literature

Return

I know you shall return Bringing with you the gift of my life Shining light upon my starless sky In the darkness of the night I long for your embrace For your ever-lasting touch You see me as I am And never see me as too much You are the answer to my prayers The beginning of me The one who healed my sight At the time I could not see I know all that I have learned From my time knowing you And I know you shall return Because the love I feel is true

Dove by Chogojyo, literature

Phoenix by Chogojyo, literature

Literature

Phoenix

Burning wind against the pale moon’s glow The holy thunder, the heron’s call Voicing the life that I’ve hidden within The shining fate of my sheltered being Night shining purple against the black sky Pale yellow shimmers upon the edge Where the world ends and begins all the same The sight that men all wish to see Purple to pink to orange to blue The circle rises to eclipse the dark With a flap of its wings the sky starts too brighten Darkness fades and light is shown Rising higher and higher as the hours pass on The phoenix brings life to all who miss living For one final moment, reprise seems fair For one final

Broken Mirror by Chogojyo, literature

Literature

Broken Mirror

Pieces, shards, broken within Staring into my reflection again A horrid beast with a feral glare Yet calm, collected, smooth as the air Disgust, it lingers, in his eyes Piercing a hole in my futile disguise Tainted by fear, the only thing I see Is the unholy monster inside of me Asking and taking, ripping me apart Breaking me, watching me from the start The broken mirror, falling to shards again Releasing the beast from deep within

I won't be here all weekend, sorry. I'm going to an anime convention, Persacon, to be specific. I'll be sure to kick butt in the Brawl tournament for anyone who reads my poetry! Also, I've got a new poem posted for all who want to read. It might offend some artists, at least the description, anyway. I hope not though. Please read and comment, I'd love others' opinions on my works. Finally, a thank you to any fans I have. I appreciate it alot. P.S. For some reason my computer keeps trying to get a dial-up connection which I don't have dial-up. I can't change my mood, but as of right now I'm actually Neutral. XP

Update, finally!

0 min read

Hey everyone, long time since my last journal. I should be able to post more often finally...I hope. >_> Anyway, I got my story up, finally. Please read and comment whenever you can. I plan on posting one of my newest poems momentarily, though my inspirat-o-meter is at zero. If anyone would like to request a poem or has an idea for me, it'd be much appreciated. I'd like to bring my skills back again as soon as I can. Thanks to anyone who reads my works and thanks again for giving me the chance to be known.
