PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I’m sitting here in class

Don’t really know how much time has passed

Watching some crap on TV

Economics class. . . Please, someone kill me

Only 2^nd block

No point looking at the clock

There talking about liberty

Been in high school for 4 years. . . What the fuck is liberty?

20 more minutes till the bell rings and I gotta stand up

Same thing every day. . . This is so fucked up

Oh look its Thomas Edison, he discovered electricity

In this moment, he’s the cause of my misery

School makes me live in my own little box of hate

I’d much rather stay at home and masturbate

Oh shit, teacher saw what I just wrote

Looks like she isn’t gonna take it as just a joke

She’s says that’s real funny Andrew, but the fun and games are over,

And now you got yourself some extra homework

-sigh- only 12 minutes left

3^rd block won’t be any better I bet

There was never any doubt

Until the haze clouded over you

And that's when you burned out 

I thought you would get through

But as it becomes clear

Our friendship is done

But I still love you my dear

No matter how much you shun

All I can do is guess

Always blaming myself

All this causes is stress

Of course you can't trouble oneself

I walk endless an road

locked into a heavy load

Of these questions and fears

Gripping from it's unreasonable tears

As a car roars by

I look dead into it's light

Wondering where it leads

But just like that it's gone

just like another day

As I wake up to the sun's harsh light

I try not to look back

As I attempt to fill this crack

Of this hurt and wonder

Unstoppable, a storm of rain and thunder

As a car roars by

I look dead into it's light

Wondering where it leads

But just like that it's gone

just like another night

As I stay up to the moon's hypnotic might

Tell me, is it ever really "Okay?"

At times I wish I could disappear, away from the day.

Tell me, was it really all a mystery?

Or was I really something plagued by history?

Judge me, try to reason my scars,

Yet, were you there for  my unreasonable wars?

Did you ever set foot in my shoes?

Taken account of what brings the blues?

Tell me, does it really matter?

If I was any more the sadder?

Perhaps it's just my business, only my trouble.

Not another place to intrude into my bubble.

I'll solve my self alone, and myself alone only

Not for you to break my silence, maybe tonight, I'd just like to be lonely.

Blame my shortcomings for my scars if you dare.

For me, it just occurred, the past isn't something I ever chose to wear.

Clocks slow to a crawl time creeps it's deceit 

Some days lack ambition no spring in my seat

Pounding heart sure to cave won't endure it's fatigued

Need mighty endowment strength stability proceed

This pen hits the paper racing heart slowly calms

I believe in my words the sweat dries from my palms

Trembling hands quieten be sturdy as steel

I take a deep breath... Now to enjoy how I feel

I tried to blindfold my heart,

But just like predicted, I failed.

The ropes were breaking,

But I wanted to continue walking on them.

Dreaming only hurts when it's

Confused with reality,

And that's exacty what I did.

I had to take an exit there

But I didn't want this to end

It's become a routine to have you there

At the burst of my thoughts,

Trying to escape through my lips,

But I won't allow it.

You have become more than a person

You are now the controller of my emotions

You decide whether I can smile today

I have given you more than myself

Once again,
I've done something
that my mother doesn't
approve of.

She keeps saying
how she's disappointed in me,
and how she never
would have thought that
I would do something like this.

It drives me nuts!
It makes me feel crazy!
It makes me mad!

What is this feeling?
So deep, so far down.
I couldn't understand.
Not if I tried.

It may be forbidden,
for me- not you,
but still...
still...
Why?

Your laugh,
your smile,
your weird quirks.
They light up my day,
not like him.

Though I love him,
I love you as well.
Why?
Oh, why?
Did my heart just fall?

Every time you play,
you laugh,
you joke.
Every time.

I love you.
But, him too.
Love.
What is love?
It's not for me-
or you.
