Ahhhhh! Poetry month is almost over so it's time to rise and grind (it's almost 1 in the morning what am I talking about) and release my precious, wonderful superhero anthologies. So let's get it started with Guardians of the Galaxy!

I'm also going to be releasing a Megamind themed poetry anthology and one based off of my Teen Titans AU, Common Mistakes.


Drax

Anger is much easier

Than Loving

And Losing

Revenge is simple too

Loving is painful

Paired again and again

With Loss

So Anger is the only option

Love simply isn't safe

Peter Quill

It seems brave to be loud

To be flashy and renowned

To be flamboyant

To be a hero

That's bravery

Or what they assume is bravery

Or idiocy, I've heard it both ways

But it's not

It's not brave to be loud

It's a defense

If you're loud enough

Then people won't see how broken you are

So be loud

Or be brave

But you were broken

Before anything else

Groot

I am Groot

(There is so much beauty in the world)

I am Groot

(Yet my friends are blind to it)

I am Groot

(It is their own goodness that they cannot see)

I am Groot

(My heart bleeds for the blind)

Gamora

I never thought

I would love a man

Who quotes song lyrics

And references stupid movies

And dances like an idiot

And would sacrifice everything

For the people and the galaxy he loves

Turns out that's exactly the kind of man I love

Rocket

Okay so I care about them

It's not a crime

It's not a crime, right?

Whatever, I've done time

Caught red-handed

With them on my mind

So what, I care about them

What does that prove?

I might be a mistake

But I have feelings too

Yondu

I would have done everything

For that boy

For my son

And he doesn't know it

Everything

But he pushed me away

Thought I was the enemy

He wasn't even close

I rescued him

For as long as I could

Let's hope I did enough

I tried to do everything

Mantis

I was blessed with too much feeling

Caged in this disaster

Kept to be only what I could do

Until I found something more

People who didn't want my powers

People who wanted my presence

The best feeling of all

The one I hadn't felt before

Nebula

I wanted a family

I wanted a sister

I wanted to be safe

Until I became strong enough

To fight back

An imperfect machine

Repaired again and again

Repaired

Replaced

Rejected

I wanted a family

I couldn't fight back
