Poet Introduction
"Life can feel like such a drag but it can also feel like such a relief"
My last words
This is the last time
You will see me
I am leaving this world
I have no reason to stay
I have finally given up
To despair
Why should i stay alive?
No one loves me
Everything i ever loved
Leaves me to never be found again
I have no purpose in the world
Everything i touch shatters into dust
No matter what i do
I can't put them back together
I have only one regret
But i am willing to take it to my grave
I know i will miss the people i grow up with
But they won't miss me
It's my time to leave...

If i was not an idiot...
I am a idiot
If i had not done
The thing that will
Change my life forever
If i only keep to myself
Nothing would had happen
I stand with my heart
Beating because of my
Friend risked so much for
Me a pitiful excuse of a man
He took a bullet though his chest
For me i don't know why
All i can do is feel
The pain and agony
I felt that day as i held him
In my hands
Seeing the blood
Running down
My arms
Seeing his lifeless
Smile as he died in front
Of me
If i had not done
The thing that will
Change my life forever
If i only keep to myself
Nothing would had happen

For me i don't know why
All i can do is feel

I felt that day as i held him

Weakness
I am strong only because
I know my flaws
I am courageous because
I know i am afraid
I know what makes me weak
But at the same time
My weaknesses make me stronger
Though weakness you fail
With every failure you get stronger
I am afraid of losing my friends
I am afraid of dying with no reason
I am afraid that if i love will she will not love me back
Knowing i am fearful
Allows me to fight back
Though
Anger
Frustration
Insanity
I fight for others not for myself
I know my flaws
I am courageous because
I know i am afraid
I know what makes me weak
But at the same time
My weaknesses make me stronger
Though weakness you fail
With every failure you get stronger
I am afraid of losing my friends
I am afraid of dying with no reason
I am afraid that if i love will she will not love me back
Knowing i am fearful
Allows me to fight back
Though
Anger
Frustration
Insanity
I fight for others not for myself

Big brother
I fight for my friends
They think of me as a brother
But not just a ordinary sibling
A big brother
They know i have their back
As i know i will always be will them
I stand with them
Though thick and thin
No matter what
Happens to me
I will protect them
As they protect me
Without them
I am nothing
And with them
I am something
I am their

I am all of me
I am me
Only me
No one can change that
I stand separated from others
I am alone
Trying to find myself
I show no emotion
I go though my missions
Without questioning
I am no puppet you can
Manipulate
I have my own standards
I don't follow
I stay until i am not needed
Only then i will leave on my own accord
You think you are in control
But you are sadly mistaken
I know that i will be needed
If it is short or long i will be back
I am all of me
Only me
No one can change that
I stand separated from others
I am alone
Trying to find myself
I show no emotion
I go though my missions
Without questioning
I am no puppet you can
Manipulate
I have my own standards
I don't follow
I stay until i am not needed
Only then i will leave on my own accord
You think you are in control
But you are sadly mistaken
I know that i will be needed
If it is short or long i will be back
I am all of me

Warrior's spirit
Fighting for whats right
Doing whatever it takes
Never backing down
This represents a
Warrior's spirit
I never give up
Every time i am knocked down
I stand right back up
I say to myself
I can do this
I won't stop
Even if i can't
Move
See
Touch
You can't break my will
I am not alone
So i know that
I will fight another day
With my
Warrior's spirit
Doing whatever it takes
Never backing down
This represents a
Warrior's spirit
I never give up
Every time i am knocked down
I stand right back up
I say to myself
I can do this
I won't stop
Even if i can't
Move
See
Touch
You can't break my will
I am not alone
So i know that
I will fight another day
With my
Warrior's spirit

The promise land
We strive for one thing
Thats is to go to heaven or hell
But nothing is set in stone
Unless we put it there
Heaven a land of forgiveness
A land of grace and beauty
The world where angels roam free
Where there is no darkness
Hell a land full of discord
A land destroyed and corrupt
The world where demons rule
Where no light can escape
We are destined to go somewhere
But we don't know
Where
All we can do is let time
Do its job
Thats is to go to heaven or hell
But nothing is set in stone
Unless we put it there
Heaven a land of forgiveness
A land of grace and beauty
The world where angels roam free
Where there is no darkness
Hell a land full of discord
A land destroyed and corrupt
The world where demons rule
Where no light can escape
We are destined to go somewhere
But we don't know
Where
All we can do is let time
Do its job

Cherish memories
I have always known you
As a shy, timid girl
I tell you things
That would either get me
Arrested or killed
I know you will not tell anyone
The sorrow and hatred i feel
Knowing i can trust you
I stand near you
Focusing and thinking
About what to do
I see you happily
Talking and having fun
Knowing you are better off
Without me
I know you will not leave me
As i won't leave you
Destined to be together
We maybe left each other for now
But we will eventually come back together
We are fighting back the...

True feelings
Lost in space
Losing myself
With every moment
My emotions
Being destroy
I stand alone thinking
Of the innocent people
Still left in this world
Knowing they are being hurt
With every action i take
I am here to die soon or later
If it was not for you
I would had died
Ages ago
I am trying to make
A connection with you
But all you do is stay unlink
I wait and wait
But nothing happens
I stay with a broken connection
With every moment thats passes
I can only think it is my fault
As i...

Good riddance
Alone but not
Forgotten
I walk though
Blazing heat
Numbing cold
Just to be alone
I vanished
Determined to never
Come back
I walk away
Knowing i am
Banished
Doomed
To stay here
No salvation for me
I deserve this
For everything i have done
Or what i will do
Only the thought of
Being alone comforts me
I am here out of my own will
I stay here knowing i will
Cause
Pain
Suffering
Hatred
Doubt
If i leave
The world is not ready for me
And i not...

Hollow
I am just a husk
That appears to be alive
I walk like a regular person
And act like a normal guy
But in the inside i feel nothing
I have no expression
I see everything
But say nothing
I am kind on the outside
But in the inside
I don't feel at all
People hurt me
People tease me
Everything they do
I don't feel
I am a hollow being
And thats all i will ever be
That appears to be alive
I walk like a regular person
And act like a normal guy
But in the inside i feel nothing
I have no expression
I see everything
But say nothing
I am kind on the outside
But in the inside
I don't feel at all
People hurt me
People tease me
Everything they do
I don't feel
I am a hollow being
And thats all i will ever be

Weighed down
A guy born knowing
He has a
Greater purpose
In life
He just stands there
Feeling overwhelmed
Feeling he has to do something
With his life but he does not
Know exactly what he has to
He stands feeling the the pressure
The weight of all the people
Who look up to him
And the people who believe in him
As he stands he can't help feel insecure and hopeless
To everything thats challenges him
He is afraid and he knows that
But he continues to seek the answer
He has a
Greater purpose
In life
He just stands there
Feeling overwhelmed
Feeling he has to do something
With his life but he does not
Know exactly what he has to
He stands feeling the the pressure
The weight of all the people
Who look up to him
And the people who believe in him
As he stands he can't help feel insecure and hopeless
To everything thats challenges him
He is afraid and he knows that
But he continues to seek the answer
