In kingdoms old of fathoms deep,
Dwell the creatures of endless sleep,
In waters treacherous and swells onshore,
Hear the ocean's song and riptide's roar.
Through open sea and blue waves yonder,
The surf beyond still brims with wonder,
Through eyes swelling with emotions unbidden,
We'll find the Ocean Kingdom ever hidden.

~Am I not human?
How far have I gone?
'Tis a great battle
But have I yet won?

Perhaps it is weakness
Inside of me
Invincible yet
Lack of empathy~

Is that what this thread is for?

As for feedback, good job! Some of the rhymes don't flow right though. Should I say which? One example is:
No bright moon to guide, no silver light of stars,
No piercing sunlight to lead from afar,
-
I'm being nitpicky here, but the akwardness is from a combination of rhyming ar and ars and the beat being just off. Not even a sixteenth, but off. Both on their own would do nothing and this doesn't affect the beauty of the poem, but you asked for criticism.

In the desert heat doth the sun cook the sands,
Home to Arabia, built by human hands,
Where magic carpets dot the skies,
And the bodies of the dead are plagued by hungry flies
Where The Prince of Thieves gives to the poor,
Where the guards stand at the Sultan's Door,
Where the Oasis lies in shade of the Palm,
Where the people greet one another with the word Salaam

When night does fall the city shivers with cold,
While the sands cool down after the Sun's scalding hold,
And the kids lean on the cool sand walls
Wishing upon stars, an enormous Starfall

~My heartbeat is barely audible
For my head is clear, I am ready for battle
I charge in with my lance in front
Charming ladies with their harmless prattle

"Tis more than finding love
In hearts I do strike great fear
I am a warrior, if you listened
T'would be courage that you hear~

HEART OF COURAGE
