“To Vent”

 

With all this going, I would love to speak my word,

Not only to conservatives, but to liberals, extremist, etc.

I would love to speak my mind on all that it is happened,

But I cannot.

 

I want to voice my opinion

But I cannot.

 

I cannot because I have always stayed neutral on Facebook (and other Social Media platforms) and not get myself into politics ever.

 

Although my profile does say my political party,

Several of my friends and family know what Party I belong to

They know what direction,

But I cannot.

I cannot express myself,

I cannot insult,

I cannot target,

I cannot attack,

I cannot protect,

I cannot hate,

I cannot safe.

 

But I can help,

I can rebuild,

I can assist help,

I can support those in need,

I can stay positive,

I can rejoice,

I can love.

 

I can help with what ever need is possible in order to bring justice for the safety of the human race.

We are united,

We are love,

We are a symbol,

We need to provide,

We must lead by example,

We must accept for who we are,

We must watch our surroundings

We must help each other,

We are one.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Want to share something I wrote the other day in regards to recent events... not everyone knows how to express themselves. Many voice out to Social Media, Family, the Streets etc. I don't to it much because I try to keep my Political Views away from any of my Social media as much as I can since I have people on both sides on views and I try not to offend any of them. I may not agree what they have written, but I respect their friendship (since they are family or people I grew up with since grade school/high school)... so I decided to "vent" out in a short poem/essay version of my thoughts. I hope everyone enjoys it

You're Five Times Better Than I'll Ever Be

She's in her lonesome unity,

Then the feeling looms just like a tree.

Look in her mind; it says "listen to me"

"They're so much better than I'll ever be

They're so much better than I'll ever be

They're five times better than I'll ever be."


The two of you, you look so free.

You're everything that I wanna be.

Look in her eyes and then you'll see;

"You're so much better than I'll ever be

You're so much better than I'll ever be

You're five times better than I'll ever be."


She wants your love, not your pity.

She'd balance her laptop on her knee.

She's sure she's thinking foolishly;

"You're five times better than I'll ever be

You're five times better than I'll ever be

You're so much better than I'll ever be."


She uses up her mind and draws it.

She thinks it is her only asset.

Her value is what she'll produce;

Without her skills, she is no use,

And lacking words, she is no use.

She's suffered but her mind's abuse.

 

She wants to see the light,

But she gives up before the fight.

 

Collapsed within its irony,

(Her states swim alternatingly)

So that she really does believe

 

You're so much better than she'll ever be

You're so much better than she'll ever be

You're so much better than she'll ever be.

Just a vent.
