Post #1.5
You want me to write a typical teenager poem
You want me to trade my heart of gold
For a heart of coal
To give up my life
And say that everything, just isn’t right
You want to hear about crying
You want to know I’ve suffered
But I’m too busy singing
My voice away, to the song I burnt
Into my soul
The lyrics you won’t know
But know that’s it’s not despair they preach
With a low voice
And a full heart, I plead
Everything is better than it seems
The sun hasn’t gone out
The rain does go away
Don’t get washed away with it
Come outside, and lay
Down, relax, and take a deep breath
Everything will be okay
Life isn’t war
I plead that it’s something more
Something worth fighting for
But something that doesn’t want fighting at all
I’m not saying to stand down when conflict arises
Just don’t beat down those that have trouble rising
And don’t be afraid to use your voice
To say something you haven’t heard in a while
I’m getting away from myself though
My mind finds it easy to flow
When all I’m doing is tapping
Not talking
But that’s how today is, isn’t it?
So welcome to my blog fellow writer
Where I only write
By Starlight
And sing when the sky is darker
Then my thoughts
Welcome to my night sky,
Where I write
By Starlight
But fight
For Sunshine
this is an interesting poem i like it
