Why is it that when we miss someone we hope they miss us too?
In my life, there was you
I guess that makes you special and worth,
Your mirth
I should get a start on moving on
But the other Saturday
My food looked like puree
My cereal went soggy because I was thinking about you so much
We fell out of a touch,
I don’t think we ever even had
I was smarter before,
Before I walked through the innocence taking, dominating doors
I guess that it might be for the best
I was stuck under a rest
I’ll make accidents but I’ll make them my forte
Softballs put on the ground
No more bats and gloves around
No more eye black
No championship game to give me a happy heart attack
The hunger for the ball in my hand
I miss my old life, like
When the ump. would tell you, you were out on the third strike
Stolen bases
On a regular basis
Red dirt on my clothes, in my lungs
I was so much smarter then
When I didn’t know what it was, time and time again
I still do not
It’s like the pain inside is caught
And I can only try to make the best of it
A superhero is someone who has strength Not super stretchy length
Strength is when someone else can put themselves in back of you In other words they put you first, that’s what they do
Superheroes are ordinary people Not the ones that have a cape and are flying over the church steeple
Superheroes are caring They are never judging you and staring
The medics that show up at a fair Just so everyone is safe, no outside facing underwear
Superheroes have courage but still fear I don’t blame them, they don’t have the head gear
The ones that rather compassion Over fashion
The ones that are brave Everyone they can’t always save
This is reality, some of the innocents are dead Some go unfed
Who are your superheroes? I hope that you answer doesn’t start with a zero
Popping in sunflower seeds
Not worrying about any bad deeds
A few years pass and I'm chewing the same flavor gum
Trying to hum the same hum
Attempting to reverse time
And take back the crime
Of going against the average current
By knowing things like how you need a warrant
The reason therapy exists is because
Some of us see the world as it does
This is 1984
Everyone just decides to ignore,
That the truth is now illegal
It is flying on the oil back of a seagull
Slipping off and getting lost,
Stuck on the back of my shoe like a piece of gum
Thinking about it now, I've been depressed all along
I know what is wrong
It's the fact that I didn't want to be born
Everyday I wake up and mourn
It's not fair; I did not want this world
I want to stay furled
This world is cruel, unjust, horrible, and unfair
I don't like it so beware
Have I fallen out of love?
I hope not
Love is what I for so long have sought
Have we gotten out of the honey moon part of a relationship?
Maybe I should have stayed in doors with penny, used napkin and chip Or is it my depression and you trying to get over Alex?
I'm not giving up on our love yet
Will Wednesday solve our problems, when we have set?
What you don't know and might not understand is that it is normal for me to disappear
I will always come back, never fear Hopefully you'll be there
My heart beats like a drum
Sometimes I go numb
I wish that you could understand more
I don't complain to you because I don't want to be a bore When I become numb
Your love will be the first thing I'll feel
For now I must deal
I refuse to let you go
I love you, I want you to know No I'm not just saying that
Let's not forget that us and our double dates are a band
Let's not forget what it feels like to be poor but own all of earth's land
With my music
I won't totally lose it.
What’s the point of living if I can’t be myself?
I'll be homeless and unhappy
And destructive
You'll continue to be sappy
You'll continue living your life complaining about everything
While I’ll keep my mouth shut because according to you, my problems don’t matter
Baby boomers being controlling yet again
Thinking I owe you when you made me into this bitter, broke, batter
I'm a millennial who lost hope
I'm seen as spoiled and lazy because I see that there’s no use
All I ask is that you don’t take the last thing I have to my ugly name
You get away with it and I'm so tired of the emotional abuse
I need to get old quick
So that I can take control of my life, my world, my planet, my states
I want to take care of this planet and make life better for future generations
You only cared about you; you’re going to go through Hell’s gates
I'm not going to have kids
Well at least not when you’re alive
You are more offensive than a confederate flag or a swastika
If you set eyes upon your gorgeous grandchildren they could break out in hives
I don’t want my offspring to have to see this society you’ve created
A world of tests and pressure
Setting us up against our own generation, giving us trust issues
I can’t wait for you to become extinct for a refresher
You won’t be able to barge in
Testing us to see just how much we can endure before we break at the bones
And when we break, you leave us alone to suffer with the deformities
When you hear our groans,
You convince yourself that we don’t have any problems that are worse,
Than yours
The millennial generation work themselves into insanity
While you insult us, pampered, careless, narcissistic, your words contaminate our pours
We are forced to wear those insults
We wear them like expensive designer clothes,
Because we don’t have any money
Baby boomers look for special millennials to overexpose
You managed to knock down my walls
Which in itself
Is an impressive task
You knocked them down
And now I'm left in this deserted wasteland
Of thoughts
I look around
At the angry graffiti
That I am not proud of
I've built Berlin Walls
Around myself
And it's a fresh feeling having them knocked down
But I'm scared
Of the creepers
And the things that live in the shadows of the trees
You knocked my walls down
And now all that’s left is
Me
You, little flit flirt
Back at my window
From bad to good, my feelings you convert
The wind blows, blows, blows
Window, open, I still can’t hear you
Please stay
With you I think I’ll get through
My light of day
Everything, you give
I’ll saver
Die for you, or live?
If you ever need a favor...
You and I don’t have the clock,
Don’t rush
Love, my time torturously tick tocks
Me heart you better not crush
I will succeed
Still you come and go
Love me?
You taught me how to go with the flow
Sometimes I feel like a tree
A tree with little wings that rustle in the wind
I have taken to hating bird brains
Being paralyzed with tension there's nothing I can do when they shit on me
Sometimes I like the rain
I like the washing
It also quenches my thirst
And keeps me sane
I love the cooler air
That sways me,
Unrhythmically
Blowing through my hair
People don’t like rain when it fills up their shoes
I don’t have feet
But I have plenty of rings
And no one I’d like to choose
I dream of flying away
To find a whole new world
My roots are too big
I feel like a tree by the end of the day
Sometimes I feel hurt because of love that is young
What is the point of them carving into me?
Yet their love dies long before I ever will
And on some days I miss where they once swung
On those days I shed a little sap
Hoping new things will stick to my bark
Like a new swing or a new summer fling
On those days I don’t mind the bird crap
Sometimes I flunk
And grow more knots
And become more twisted
On those days I think that I’d prefer to be trunk
Sometimes I feel that I'm not fair to my roots
As they hold me,
I try to strangle myself with them
More than ever, the wise owls give me disapproved hoots
Sometimes I feel like a tree
As the giving tree, I have found limits to my giving
I only give up and never give down
I feel like a tree, stuck to the ground but growing up with reality
I’d rather stay up at 2 in the morning
With my thoughts
Rather than sleeping with them
I'm not that intimate with my thoughts
They do not belong
In my bed
In my sheets
In my being
But alas I'm too sensitive
And weak
They are aggressive
And addictive like the warmth of alcohol
Exhaustion tries to seduce me
But I refuse
I know I cannot hold them off forever with the cane
Until they all break free
To slowly and comfortably lull me
Into my nightmares
To wake up in a sweat all hot and bothered
Shaking and shaking
Number one, never make me prove you wrong in the way that I don’t need you
Number two, never make me wear a red dress with Bugs Bunny characters on it
Number three, don’t force me to conform to your idea of being a girl
Number four, don’t think that I won’t taste it, trust me, my taste buds will find a way
Number five, don’t make me rewrite something, because there’s a chance that I thought it was a masterpiece in the way that you thought that it was shit
Number six, don’t think that I am frightened
Number seven, don’t think about me, because you'll never understand, and I hope you never will
Number eight, don’t force me to do it your way, because, if I did it differently, that would obviously just be preposterous!
Number nine, don’t think that you can just stare at me like a creep, making me uncomfortable to ever wear cute summer dresses
Number ten, don’t make me feel the need to apologize for just being me!
What happened to us?
What's with all the fuss?
How do you not know why you texted her?
My friend said that it wouldn’t be a good idea to get back with you; I concur
I'm afraid to call you an oaf
Since you still have my loaf
I don’t want to call you a nitwit
Even if that word perfectly fits
I don’t want to call you what you still are
To me what you are seems so far
I don’t want to say
You never really loved me all those days
We had, I had plenty of good thoughts
For you, I unfortunately had the wrong timed hots
No matter how badly you want to get back with me
Well now you'll get to feel how I did when I disagreed
It wasn’t a smart thing to do
This love was true
You literally ruined it for your good
You loved her, I understood
Now without you distracting me
I can get a good degree
You now are going to end up all alone
Even if you try to phone
I'm not going back to my heartbreaker
You were my heart taker
You better never say that I never loved
Last time I believed you when you sent your doves
This break up doesn’t really hurt
It will though, just wait for her dirt!
Hello over there! I love writing poetry. I have a dream of becoming a writer! I hope that my poetry makes you feel like you're not in this world all alone.
