The Wilting Flower ©

The Wilting Flower

The flower you gave me was a rose

Not a pink rose or a Red one

But a White rose

When things were okay 

Between us 

it starts to bloom

But when we started fighting 

It started wilting

It kept wilting and wilting and wilting

And i couldn't do anything to save it

Until it died 

I knew then 

That you were no longer mine

But one day it bloomed

And everything was okay 

It stayed like that 

It is still blooming til' this day

The View ©

The View

The view from the the tower was great and all

But I never got to explore it 

But, when I did explore it 

I never got within hearing distance of happiness

One day I broke out of that dreadful tower 

I met you 

We ran away together 

But I fell in love with you,

Hoping I would get my once upon a time

With you

I planning on surprising you with a present

But you were with another girl

I escaped crying 

I got back into the tower 

And I saw you with her and your kids

I found out you never loved me 

"I just loved the view." 

You told me

But i loved you
And you never remembered me

The Burned Rose... ©

The Burned Rose...

The burned rose has a story

It's unique 

It's beautiful

It's scarred 

The rose is damaged

The rose isn't pretty

It's beautiful

The rose is amazing 

The rose is fragile 

The rose isnt the same 

The rose isnt flawless anymore

It is scarred and, damaged

It is owned

It is property 

I'm the rose 

And you are the damager

"Why would you do this to me?" I ask.

You say, " I did it to make you more beautiful."

The Face... ©

The Face...

The Face is being deformed

The face is being cut

The face is being bruised 

Its Bleeding

The face looks familiar

The face is being burned 

The face is being dragged

The face is being molded

Now I know why 

The face looks familiar

That's because it's mine

The face is a puppet 

And society is the 

Puppet-Master

Inspiration ©

the inspiration i get from being with you 

is ENDLESS

The feeling of freedom is just enough to help me

flow words across the page 

in an act of freedom of expression 

The way i feel when i start writing is the best

in the WORLD

i can NEVER compare that feeling

That urge i get to start writing

Like me friends i cant be forced to flow, 

or write or blog

i need to do it cuz i want to

Poetry is me.

What is it to YOU?             

there you go again... ©

there you go saying things that have never been

there you far ahead of what I will do

you know everything before I even do them

if you really did why don't you try and stop me

If you say things that never were 

to make things different 

in a good way

they hurt me more than you will ever know

you say you are always home

you say you pay attention to me

but there you go not caring 

not caring about what i feel 

or what I say

Why dont you listen

Why dont you even try to understand me

You say you live at home

with the rest of us

But instead you live at work 

And then you criticize me 

For the same exact thing you do 

I want someone who is home

Who Listens to me

Someone who understands me

Why cant you be like that?

There you go again ....

There you go... 

Run from us...

but dont expect 

a welcome back full of joy 

Cuz there is no joy.

between you and me.

So STOP your lying

and confess 

until then 

you're not someone 

i will play pretend

cuz' there isnt no pretend 

there is only real and fake

and

right now everything isnt real 

its fake.

You Say... ©

 You Say...

You say I'm really Dramatic

You say i incriminate people

You say I'm a liar

You say I cant be trusted

You say so many things

I always end up believing you

I always end up thinking 

That I have much more 

than I really have

You lie and lie and lie to me 

saying that things will get better

But they never do

They just get worst

When you say that i could be 

whatever i want 

Then why cant i be good enough 

to get a good job or a thank you

INSTEAD Of:

"You could do better"

"Come on ____."

or " I didn't ask for this" 

or 

"why cant you be more like your cousin"

Why can't i be good enough

Can you say good job

instead of 

comparing me to y our work

You believe things

that aren't true

Make me believe them as well

But in the end I'm sitting here writing this 

But you wont ever read this

This is about the way you guys act

In the end you wont even try to understand 

Why i write

why i even put up with you

But im getting tired this

of all the lies

of all the bullcrap

of all things you tell me

i dont understand why you dont listen to me 

why you dont understand me

why do you still love me?

the world wont.... ©

The world wont....

the world wont end if you are

DUMPED

The sky isn't gonna fall if you get

in TROUBLE

The world isn't SPINNING

Just  for YOU

The world wont stop if you

DIE

The world wont end if you

LOOSE your HOMEWORK

The world wont care if you

DIE

Cuz' it doesn't know or care about

You

The world DOESN'T STOP

Spinning just for you, because there are

MORE than a BILLION people in this world

Along WITH YOU 

the world wont stop just cuz' you want it to

cuz' it doesn't care about little issues that you have

SO THERE YOU HAVE IT 

Difficult Decisions ©

They make you ponder everything

they effect the ways it makes things better

the causes

the reactions

the changes

the desicion is difficult

because you either you want to or you dont want
both things
or
you are trying to make people happy and not let anyone down
or make them mad
but i think it's the second one
difficult decisions are impacting
difficult decisions are difficult
difficult decisions are worrying
difficult decisions are hard to pick from
nobody likes difficult decisions
but we have to choose the right thing

hunger is not fed ©

when hunger is not fed

you yearn for it

you yearn for what you want

you are hungry for knowledge

you never get full

you are hungry for food

you are easy filled up

but when you are hungry for more

you dont get fed

when you are hungry

do you get fed what you want?



what we are told ©

we are told

we are told that we are the best

we are told that we are unique

and we are told bad things

but it always brings good and bad feelings

like

Sadness,

Dissappointment,

Anger,

and, best of all:

Happiness

but none of that will measure up to

when we are that everything we knew was a lie

words scar

words can kill

use them for good

and all of us will benefit

remember that

appearances ©

apearances

never judge a book by its cover

apearances dont say much

but what really matters is when you

actually call it out

when you tell the world

i see you for what you are

not

what you look like

people are judgemental

people are judged by the way they look

not

for who they truly are

girls are judged by their looks and body

and the same thing for guys

but why are we soo picky on who we choose to be ours

when it isnt always who we choose to be ours forever

its what is faith brings to our lives

but dont judge a book by its cover

because when you do

it comes back like a boomerang

unknown blessings ©

Unknown blessings

the only unrecognized blessing is 

love

love is a blessing 

love is a blessing that goes 

unrecognized

love leaves with the wind

all you have to do is hold on to it

pain ©

Pain

We all know what it feels like

We all know it but some dont 

Reconize it

People think they have 

Expericenced it

When they havent even visited 

People think they know real pain

When they havent even felt pain

We all feel pain in a different way

How do you define pain

People describe pain 

Differently

But i cant even begin to explain it

But how do you explain your pain(s)

words ©

WORDS

words can mean so much 

words can hurt u

words can kill

words can cause us so much pain

words can hurt so much

words can take us to pain never explored

words can be forever adored

words can be loved 

words can make us feel loved

words can make feel insecure

words can make us feel unloved

words can kill

words can murder

becarefull

another soul with words 

express love not hate

so we would be around to appreciate

the ones who make us feel loved 

the ones who care

all has come to an end ©

all has come to an end

everything is falling down

everything is crumbling

anxious to meet the ground below

we hear a scream

that's is from u and me

all u see is the world ending

all u have is gone

all the people u have loved

are either gone or hurt

there is nothing u can do

there is nothing u can save

the world is coming to an end

the fear is being struck into our hearts

"the world musn't end" i said

but what i hear is that "it already did"

the world come in like a stab in the chest

all i have ever known is gone

it can never be replaced

the world i have known

it falling apart at the seams

i pray and ask can  fix it

but what i get in return

is that it cant be fixed now

its almost done

the world i have come to know is almost gone

good bye good bye

Dedicated to: Haven Alexandria Penmen
May you Rest in Peace

concentration camp

Concentration Camps

when u live in one u live in constant fear

no where to run

no where to hide

just that constant fear and loneliness u live with

if u stop for a second from the back-breaking work that u have daily

you get whipped if u are lucky or if not u are shot automatically

everywhere people are dying from illness, hunger, pain, disease, and exhaustion

bang there goes the working gun

everyday the constant pang of a gun shot roars to life with screams of fear

and then the thud of a body falling down

all u ever see hear is people in their black and white striped clothing

and lifeless carcusses waiting to rest in peace

no where to run

no where to hide

all the lies they tell us are hurtful

bang bang there it goes and another body falls

the work u get here is painful

everything u go through is unforgetable

we never asked for this

we keep fighting for our rights to live

we will live on even after our deaths

but u will never take away our religion or dignity

but we will serve as a reminder to the people who want listen

listen to our unheard pleas

let us be heard

dont let us die without our deaths being justified

but we will live on

we will never go away

our blood remains on ur hands

u thought that it was washed away but its not

it still remains at the hands of our killer

our remains are still at the places where we died

find us and let us be free

like we were at one time many years ago

let us be free
