a slightly darker poem i wrote..


das

Recommended Posts

This morning i decided to write a small poem about dealing with strugles, mainly cause i had been battling allergies and thought i could make a small poem about dealing with strugles and them making you tougher, well i kept writing and words kept flowing, all in all it took me an hour or so to write it, because i penned some things that shocked myself, but were true. i suppose. Poetry is a reflection of yourself, or an abstract of how you feel, or at least thats how i view it. this poem gets kind of darker then most of my lovesick stuff, and i think its some of my better work. albiet i did get a tad angry in the 2nd verse towards a certain female who treated me so nice...for homework and cash in highschool. so i kinda lash out at her in verse 2 . but other then that...its excellent. So here it goes, please give me any feedback you have on it. it does kind of have a hip hop flow, but i still like it, and it might sound good if i can find an instrumental to rap it too ...

 

 

 

Anyways. here i present...Reflections

 

 

 

 

 

Phil also said i could post it as below *hides* :P

Reflections

 

 

 

Sometimes you have to fall from grace..

 

Before you can look yourself in the face

 

i cant explain how i feel.

 

But something about this is very real.

 

Even now i dont feel like my former self

 

It's amazing what enduring a strugle can do to strengthen your health.

 

 

 

Im Finally at the crossroad i never dreamed i would get too

 

Oh- and to that slu* who used me in highschool- F*** You.

 

you lead me on and gave me false hope

 

You made me feel great- but i never saw the rope

 

That you somehow placed around my neck

 

Did you think without you i would strangle and die like a dog under its previous masters deck?

 

 

 

Ive reached that time in my life when i have moved on

 

I survived and my lack of confidence is mostly gone

 

I've never been in love and i have never really lost.

 

I used to romanticize love like spring flowers strugling for survival agaisnt that last frost.

 

 

 

I want to do things i have never done before.

 

Kiss, Cuddle, Make love and so much more.

 

I Could write more about my fantasies but i might be called a perv.

 

But who are you to judge me?! that takes nerve!

 

We all are different and have things we desire to explore.

 

At this point in my life i am wiser, stronger and more mature then before.

 

Perhaps some of my innoncence got killed off somewhere down the line.

 

Even so, i know ,Mentally and and emotionally i am fine

 

 

 

Ive always wanted to mention people in my words ive written down

 

and laugh as my red pen paints the town.

 

But you know what? Its over and done with,

 

Closure has cometh.

 

Sure i could pen about girls who turned smiles into frowns

 

and some schoolyard bullies who emotionally tore me down

 

Mercyless, like i was some animal in a cage,

 

But it does me no good to be filled with this consuming rage.

 

Just because these words in this poem are dark.

 

Doesnt mean my Kindness and emotions have been cast out of my heart.

 

 

 

This poem is for my 18 year long story.

 

For the next 20 years, the world better prepare better for me.

 

I should of gave a verse to the friends who stuck with me this far,

 

But i think those people already know who they are.

 

My outlook on life hasnt changed.

 

Although i will admit using anger and hate as motavation to succeed was deranged.

 

Now i move on to succeed under my own drive and will.

 

Im still at the crossroad and this time there is only one way to go

 

This path is new and uncharted so i must take it slow.

 

I will try new things and i will make mistakes.

 

But thats better then having regrets for chances i did not take.

 

 

 

In the end it turns out i have little left to say

 

Time has changed me or i have broken out of my shell.

 

I will find happiness, success and love-this i know now.

 

Although im not sure where i will find it ...or even how.

 

My Family, Friends and God has been good to me..this i can tell

 

So as i take this New journey i ask you to remember me when you lie down to Pray
