Be yourself

There’s no need to defend,

Against someone your end,

Since happiness comes from within,

And you shouldn’t be blue,

From their comments so rude,

For every insult give them two,

You should just trust yourself,

And appease no one else,

When it comes to the forming of ‘self’

Because life is for you,

And it’s sad but it’s true,

That the ones missing out are not few,

Since when living the life of another,

The one and true self you will smother,

It’s better to say “fuck the others”,
Be you.

My grievance to humanity

I’m shocked and appalled,

At the gall of you all,

Standing with your backs to the wall,

With eyes raised up high,

To a dark leaden sky,

Enslavement of all growing nigh,

There’s no savior for you,

Or the world you once knew,

‘Cause this one has played you a fool,

And I wish it weren’t true,

That we’re all fucking doomed,

Seems in the end the enlightened are few,

And then fewer still,

Are the ones who would kill,

To defend their forefather’s will,

That all men be free,

To live life equally,

To chase after dreams and seek peace,

But I guess it’s okay,

For us all to be slaves,

To a system that never repays,

A single dime to those it denies,

The freedoms and rights,

Of all in this illusion called life.

You are

The reason I get lonely sometimes,

The reason I'm awake when even the moon wont shine,

Not a reason at all - just a momentary lapse thereof,

Good memories gone bad - with a hint of fine age,

Words at the tip-of-tongue forever held at bay,

Not a regret - at least that's what I tell myself,

The life, blood and soul,

To this one sided love I behold,

While I watch broken years now unfold,

The hole ever gaping,

Since it's me I'm forsaking,

Whenever I come back for more,

The most beautiful sun,

to shine for this one,

Leaving me with a black sky,

The reason I'd barter,

My soul as a martyr,

If it meant I could just call you mine,

The best at disguise,

Sharp pain painted prize,

That makes this flood flow from my eyes,

Why love I despise,

Why I dry my tired eyes,

And with suicide now roll the dice.
