Finally, Hmmmm when I leave you make a poetry section... interesting XD. Luckily though, because I love poetry, I'll post one of mine because I can't help myself after seeing this. Told you all I would watch you, thats how I knew this arrived and thanks to Dragon. This poem below I wrote for Joshi, long ago, because this thing has some messed up space if not everything fits on a line, read it like you're supposed to read poems. If there is a comma keep going on and flowing, stop if there is a period and breathe to go onto the next flow. So here you go, I wrote this for Joshi, I had lots of feelings into this, but like all my poem I very much so dislike it. It's just me, I can never fully get into my poetry.

Mister Silent, your words are but a charm.
When you do speak, they cause me no harm.
Like a gift or present, that one keeps dear,
I hold you closely when you are near.
Sometimes when the moon is full and the stars shine bright,
My voice echoes your valiant name upon the night.
Minds wonder as you grow distraught,
Disposing everything they have been taught.
Your emotions and words I know they're inside,
But what deed has caused them to run and hide?
Changing slowly but surely at that,
And deep inside I want the old you back.
The one with all the seconds, minutes, hours, and months,
When any obstruction meant nothing to us.
Yet, Mr. Silent, I like this new you to,
With all these interesting, exciting views.
Put both of them together and what do you have?
A face smiling gently, that knows not the meaning of sad.
Mister Silent, you know my name and my face,
And you know my gender and my race.
You’ve heard me speak and you’ve watched me grow.
You’ve watched me fight against many a toll.
You saw the expression in your heart,
When I told you nothing would tear us apart.
You were there when I cried of sorrow and guilt,
You were there when I felt like trash and filth.
You aided me from my past mistakes,
And you honored me with my biggest break.
You fixed my philosophy when I gave up,
Inside you told me to be kind yet tough.
You were there when my heart beat to fast,
And with your rolling tongue you held it with tact.
You watched as I changed from boy to man,
You smiled as I told you my life long plans.
You touched and pushed away all my tears,
When my body became consumed by fears.
You were like a father, every time I needed help,
You were there before I could even yelp.
You bestowed me wisdom and gave me strength,
And for that dear god I give you thanks.
You’ve listened to me sing just one song,
You’ve seen me commit my idiotic wrongs.
But always there no matter what,
You were that one who never gave up.
You taught me lessons, and best of all gave me joy.
And like my mother, you played with me and shared my toy.
Behind your mask, from what these “others” have built,
There’s that man there, as soft as a quilt.
The one who was with me through thick and thin,
And always knew the best skin, is the skin you’re in.
That man who raised me and gave me life,
That man who’s been there for many a night.
Mister Silent, do you remember when we first met?
Do you recall how your words stole my breath?
Believe me or not, your still the you you’ve always been,
But this you has been mistreated under this cherished skin.
Live forever, those words mock the truth,
And you’re the one who told me to live my youth.
Live these days now, you only have one chance.
Breathe out now and get in your childhood stance.
Play with me; here you can have all I own,
My soul wants to be with you until I’m just bone.
Talk to me, I still exist and beat in your chest,
Deep under your valiant army worn crest.
Look at me and see but one thing and think,
Tomorrow this can be all gone as soon as you blink.
Cherish now, and know like we promised I’ll be there,
Always guiding over you with tenderness and care.
Brothers forever until our dying breath,
And believe me, I will because you’re the best.
I love you little guy and always will,
And no one will break us with any amount of skill.
But one question lingers in my mind,
One tiny question you just can’t leave behind,
In my heart and forever sewn,
Over these past few days, Mister Silent, where did you go?
