“Self Despair” I hate my words Voices that you never heard Deep within me Killing me Secretly Lash out at the world For my own mistakes I desire to have them misplaced So I'll know that I can't just be the only human flawed Living in dreams that are too real But so far away from me Fantasy is nothing But a given Term For the insane is trying to appear plain Because they heard the strait jacket buckle crack But a given Word Always heard while the meaning was never fully deserved Everything realistic is fantasy Because life is but a dream that no one is sure we'll wake of Screaming But I can hear the voice within Screaming Hating me Hating you too Because I never was understood So I hate my every silent word I wish I had screamed Like the voices inside me Maybe you would have heard me "Lies" I lie to myself Like everyone lies to me The media lie, but we look to them for news Your parents lie, but they are our first teachers Your friends lie, but they will always protect you Your favorites lie, but never to you The Bible lies, but it’s the almighty truth You lie I lie We are all caught up in the fabrications made By personal – or public – human concept Of what is right (you) And accept it (me) Say I hate you when I love you Say I’ll kill you when I’ll save you Say I’ll care for you when I’ll leave you dying Nothing is true anymore Nothing but fantasies to satisfy ourselves We know nothing just like we know it all Liars and deceivers unite for we are one Truths is what hurts us, but can save us From this bittersweet dream From the villains we see in the mirrors May we live in ongoing misery and die in vain … But deny it to St. Pete In you mind’s eye My mind The world Bombs are a symbol of love And a hug ought to get one lynching… Or a kiss on the cheek for a cross Unite Because I’ll stay lying to you like you stay lying to me and we may lie to ourselves And destroy nations and creeds together For one another (ourselves) I lie to myself Just like everyone else
wow nice work keep it up, try to include my emotions, because poems have to alot of emotions shown in them
Thanks Ya mean emoticons? Chea yeah right. Other than that, what do you mean by "My emotions"? I try to keep my poems from being swampy annoying emotional and something a little dry.
The first one was good, the short middle ones were all right but the last one was weird. It was like 2 different poems. You had the first when you were talkingabout everyone lying, then when you went into that long chunk of writing the style seemed to completely change? I don't know what happened there, and i'm not saying it's not good, but for the style to completely change in the middle of the poem was....unusual.
Meh, my poems come out like they do. I don't even know myself (but then again, I am seriously one unusual being). Thanks tho. I'll prolly put more on here.
