Cage of BitternessCage of Bitterness4 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
I feel it in my chest
Clawing and ripping at the very core of my being
A few words
Holding the power to set me free and destroy
Anger creeps in my voice
I can no longer hide my contempt and resentment
Devoid of Affection
I no longer recognize the sound from my voice
And I don't care
Astonished at myself and no longer ashamed
3 years
Wasted in a cage of lies and false hope
The lights died
The darkness crept in
Cold permeated frosting
Every last inch
IN the now vacant spot
That was once my heart
Now a blackened cube of Ice…
No Longer Sorry…

"If you really loved the first one
You wouldn't have fallen for the second"
Wow are you really that naive?!
You asked me if I'm jealous!
Why would I be jealous of you?!
You can't stay single for more than a month
And still lead the other on
I love you
To the new one
I'll always love you to the last
Gosh couples make me sick!

Broken with time,
Life is diminishing,
eyes shifting to the clock,
the hands quickly spin,
day after day the same routine,
Unknown what is different...
What will be different,
about this time,
about this routine,
to know who is diminishing,
Everything starts to spin,
As everything revolves around that clock...
I want my clock,
To be different,
backwards it shall spin,
for my time,
returned those from diminishing,
An awkward routine...
For my routine,
this backwards clock,
Lives will never be diminishing,
but how will it be different,
the reverse of time,
Will revert the lives that spin...

Once again in love,
This time it's you,
As we gaze into eyes,
Deeply we look,
As we embrace,
That is all it will take…
I will take,
You into my love,
A strong embrace,
For only you,
Only your look,
Will fall into my eyes…
Into your eyes,
Is me you take,
In just one look,
I am again in love,
This time with you,
Which I will embrace…
As we embrace,
I stare into your eyes,
It's because of you,
That makes me take,
Myself into love,
Because of your look…
As I look,
While we embrace,
I am completely in love,
I want me in your eyes,
Away we will take,
Me and you…
I will hold you,
And only look,
For you
Is death scary?When you immediately think of death and nothingness it burns away and bleeds our thoughts and soul because the reality of what we are and the realisation isn't pretty. We are nothing but a tiny cog in the machine. We think we have soul but we don't, it's nothing but our intelligence adapting to emotions. A part of us thinks that the world revolves around us because we slightly feel that we are the only true real soul because we cannot truly recognise that everyone else is going through their own experience(life). It feels that everything is there and we are just doing our own thing because entertainment, food, everything is all there and theIs death scary?1 year ago in Emotional More Like This

As I look into my mirror,
I reflect on my image,
Of what is visible,
Who I have become,
The reasons no one will understand,
Is they cannot see from my eyes…
With my eyes,
I look into my mirror,
I try to understand,
Who that is in that image,
What they have become,
At least what is visible…
I may be visible,
But with my eyes,
I can see what I have become,
All displayed in the mirror,
An illusion that is my image,
That is what I must understand…
I can understand,
Of what is physically visible,
But my true image,
Is diverted from your eyes,
A shattered mirror,
A shard of what I will become…

Stuck in a form that seems to be of two sides,
Constant struggle for either to lead and become torn,
Either no longer rooted in light,
Or no longer wallowing in the darkness,
While in full nothing seems to be right,
But what is the answer that will ring true…
Constantly struggling in the thoughts to know which is true,
Unable to fully listen to either of the sides,
Always feeling wrong and never to be right,
These parts must be torn,
The perfect separation from what is perceived as darkness,
Or the consumption of what can be viewed as light…
What is the thought we call light?

The trouble is the gradual decline in government policy and infrastructure that arises from the collective works of individual elitist crettins. If it wasn't for politicians and money power crazyness spurred on by a self perpetuating media propaganda machine then we would have probably solved most of the worlds problems by now.
Take America for example, the worlds first super-power, they had an extremely large responsibility to elevate the rest of the world up to a higher standard when they gained access to technoligical ingenuity and resources unavailable to other nations. Unfortunately however, they completely squandered their resources in

Do you ever get that feeling,
Do you ever think that maybe,
Your dreams are just too perfect,
Hidden inside of your head.
Do you ever get the feeling,
That the dreams you dream are nothing,
Nothing till realities had it's say,
And added a few imperfections to the perfect image.
Do you ever think that perfection,
Is simply not enough,
Without a few meddles and difficulties,
Along the way.
That time you imagined lying in the grass in a meadow,
Wrapped arm in arm with your loved one,
Did you think that maybe if it was real,
It would start to rain?
Or maybe you'd accidentally lie on some stinging nettles?

I thought you loved me.
I thought that you'd come back.
If you love me,
You'd just say so.
You left.
You didn't say goodbye.
You walked away,
Not even trying to spare me as well.
Lies flood around me.
Truth isn't here.
You filled me full of spite.
I can't even see through it.
I don't want to be hateful.
I don't want to be rude.
I don't want you to talk to her.
I don't want you to love her.
If you love me,
You should've said so.
