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
