I look into your eyes
and I see the ocean
I see the waves crashing
hear them splashing wildly
I look into your eyes
and I see fire
flashing brightly
crackling and alive
I look into your eyes
and I see a forest
green and thriving
it is so full of life
I look into your eyes
and I see the world
I see everything
and it makes me smile
Because you mean the world to me
I stare into the
dark blue sky
nothing much to see,
would say the average person
But my friend,
that is not me
when I look above
at night, into the dark blue sky,
I see so much
that you wouldn't
believe. So do not be frightened
come with me
so that you can see
all that I do.
then WE can see
the wonders of the sky
TOGETHER
we can see the stars,
the moon, and the
beautiful color
of that dark blue sky
TOGETHER
that color- it's so hard
to describe, but
we will describe it
that beautiful midnight sky
TOGETHER
that midnight sky
that we can see
every night- it belongs to us
and we will own it forever
TOGETHER
Hello everyone!!
It's been a while. I wrote this freestyle poem today based off Buffy's philosophy.
"Seize the moment, cause' tomorrow, you might be dead" -Buffy Summers
This quote was from the pilot episode of buffy the vampire slayer, one of my favorite shows. I decided to write a poem based off of it. ^_^
Seize the moment
Do what you want
Take this opportunity
To achieve your dreams
Do anything you'd like
Don't back down
Seize the moment
Take the moment
Seize the moment.
Cause' tomorrow,
you might be dead!
I really liked my old life
I did not want a change
I miss my old house
my friends
my enemies
those who loved me
those who hated me
You told me we would never move
you said we wouldn't change
you lied to me
back then
I believed you
I trusted you
I do not like my new life
I did not want a change
I try so hard to please them
I try to understand
She tells me I've done wrong
But she will not tell me what
I am overwhelmed
Right now
No one understands
She tells me I'm a jerk
But not what I did
She tells me I've not helped
But I do nothing else
I try so hard to please her
I try to understand
No one else his helping
Everyone's a jerk
But I am the one
That no one understands.
I am not being truthful
when I say that death is happy
I am not being honest
when I say I have no friends
Yes, My favorite color is black
No, I am not goth
Yes, I often seem so sad
but I am not depressed.
I am embracing
my true self
the one that's really me
and I honestly don't care
I'm not ashamed of being
ME
I am complicated.
People are complicated.
No one understands me
I cannot understand anyone
Is it even possible?
To fully understand
yourself or someone else?
I ask myself this question
Seeking an answer
that can never be found.
Maybe someday
People will be understood
But that question
will remain unanswered
for now.
People are complicated
I am complicated.
I lie awake, in my bed.
I stare so intently at the ceiling
I can't sleep.
Not since- no.
I try not to remind myself.
Why can't I sleep?
Why can't I just be normal?
I feel so drastically different
from everyone else.
No one asks themselves
questions like these
No one talks to me
No one notices me
I am a disease
so contagious
I cannot be treated.
No one understands me
I don't even understand me
I look over at my clock.
That number - Time.
So threatening
It almost scares me
I wish I would let it dissolve me.
Time. So simple.
Yet, so complicated.
Even I can't comprehend.
What does it even matter?
Time.
I look into your eyes

Remember me,
I am a mask hiding behind a mask,
With nothing behind,
Anxiety and stress collection.
The GCSE years are not ones to remember,
But ones to fear.
Anxiety push tears from mascara coloured eyes,
Already destroyed by time,
In the little years of life.
Remember me,
I am part of your memories.
I'm not the person that I pretend I am.
A confident man, wise and true,
Peels away to reveal my face
A small boy, hiding in a cupboard
With his hands over his eyes.
I can't remember when it was decided
That I graduated from boyhood into a man
Now rolls of parchment, inked decrees
Shower my body. Their name is responsibility,
Apocalyptic horsemen hitherto unknown
I'm scared, blind and lost in a maze
Made for me by age herself,
Keeping me from turning back to see
My younger self, eyes so wide with hope
That they are blind to what is ahead.
I long to run through my old hometown,
Greet the pavements like old friends
And tread them like I used
