Imbalanced me
Always underestimated, never overused
always misconstrued, never understood
always dying, never living
always sinning, never relenting.
balance is ridiculous, it's a stupid word.
to be erased from existence is what the word deserves
answer me this, is there anything that's balanced?
because of the spectrum, balance is never there.
so what is mean again?
i supposed it works 2 ways,
from being cruel to general
, guess it's all the same...

Snowflake
She might seem cold, but she's really beautiful
she is unique, unlike others around her
I guess i was silenced by her great quell
but she's close to me, she's someone special.
She's quite sharp, her touch and actions sting (ouch)
Though she's usually quiet, and doesn't say anything.
she is transparent, she has nothing to hide.
She keeps no secret, and tells no lies.
Her ego's small, and she feels no importance
she's been made use of, and trodden on.
She isn't perfect, none of her is,
She has been scarred, but has the will to live. ...

Nameless
They gave birth to me
But they don’t know me
I was raised by them
But they complain about my problems
Well apologies Mr and mrs perfect
About the fact that I’m a defect
That I’m a imperfection, a stain on paper
A hindrance, a bother, a broken person
I can’t recognize me, I can’t tell
Who is me amongst the cut flesh and hair
You’ve pushed me over the edge,
Hanging by an excuse of a ledge
I let go, and I started falling
To my death, which is eternity’s story
But they don’t know me
I was raised by them
But they complain about my problems
Well apologies Mr and mrs perfect
About the fact that I’m a defect
That I’m a imperfection, a stain on paper
A hindrance, a bother, a broken person
I can’t recognize me, I can’t tell
Who is me amongst the cut flesh and hair
You’ve pushed me over the edge,
Hanging by an excuse of a ledge
I let go, and I started falling
To my death, which is eternity’s story

Haha
Don’t believe everything you hear and see
Because there’s a ‘lie’ in everything you ‘believe’
I believed in love
A word I wished I’ve never heard of
One scorned, the other rejected me
Can someone stop me from being dumped please?
Love in pain and it hurts.
Why is it called a blessing, when it’s a curse?
I know I’m loveless you can see it in my eyes
A shadow of a living person, who has died.
Gone to a place that is well known
Where there’s no light, no sound, just dark, dead cold.
Because there’s a ‘lie’ in everything you ‘believe’
I believed in love
A word I wished I’ve never heard of
One scorned, the other rejected me
Can someone stop me from being dumped please?
Love in pain and it hurts.
Why is it called a blessing, when it’s a curse?

The Colorful Sky
I will admit, I will be honest, and try to be polite.
A secret I’ve kept, the fact my wings used to be white.
They weren’t always black and I wasn’t always flightless.
It’s because of good that I am now lifeless.
From the poem’s title you can probably tell,
That this poem’s about a colorful sky, in a nutshell
As you know the many colors in a rainbow,
Red, violet, orange, blue, green, indigo and yellow.
The sky was the red of people’s passion
Blazing like fire, from the mouth of a dragon.
It was also the orange, like passive aggressive,...

I'm fine
I’m fine! Can’t you see? That I’m living life normally?
That I’m still I living, human being, with a normal family?
I’m fine! Can’t you see? That I still have both hands?
That I have yet to lose them in an accident or crash?
I’m fine! Can’t you see? That I’m not going crazy?
That I’m not in a mental hospital or straitjacket?
I’m fine! Can’t you see? That I’m still studying?
Working relatively hard and sometimes relaxing?
So why in the world did you ask, ‘how are you?’
Before talking to me, have you thought your words through?
Maybe...

Explain your answer
Why do I even waste my time?
Thinking about someone I’ll never find?
I know I’m loveless! You don’t have to tell me!
It’s obvious, it’s shown, everyone can see!
I just want someone to say they want me,
I just need someone to say they need me.
I just want to reply they I want them,
And I just need to reply I need them.
Sometimes I just need a hug…
With a rope around my neck
I haven’t lost hope, hope has lost me!
Because I have no ability, skill or strategy!
I am labelled something people call ‘trash’
Because of my...

Worlds apart
I split myself into two peoples
And built many walls between the two.
I built the walls, with no bridges…
The two worlds, bidding each other adieu
They were isolated for many years
Due to the neighbors they had feared
For all this time I don’t know where I lived,
In the world of light, or the realm of darkness.
I couldn’t tell the difference between two worlds
Nor could I live in any one of them.
There was the world where people would never cry,
And the with dark clouds and a pitch black sky
They were one and the same, they...
And built many walls between the two.
I built the walls, with no bridges…
The two worlds, bidding each other adieu
They were isolated for many years
Due to the neighbors they had feared
For all this time I don’t know where I lived,

Nor could I live in any one of them.

Icarus
I flew up high into the azure blue sky,
I couldn’t believe it! I could fly!
They told me not to fly into the sun,
And not too close to the sea
Or my wings would burn off
And that would be devastating…
I restrained myself from going too high
But of course I wouldn’t sink too far.
Then everyone around me started doing freestyles
After their rounds, they said, ‘it’s worthwhile!’
Then I tried doing what they did…
I ended in tragedy, my last words lost in the wind.
I tumbled from the sky to the sea,
Which became my home, for all eternity.

Entertainment
I sought answers and I came to you
Because of my questions, I gladly played the fool.
Until I found what I sought,
Only then would I leave you.
But as I played the fool for you,
The answers I sought, I never received.
So I worked for you to get closer,
Any way possible, to find my answers.
Then I stole my answers through a knife
I held it point blank, she wasn’t shy.
Then when I left her,
The world changed, before and after
There was no more purpose in my life
The world wouldn’t change, even if I died.
This is what I...

Bad Night
I closed my eyes and counted to ten
I couldn’t roll over. I’d awake my ‘friends’
I said the rosary over and over again
But I couldn’t clear the thoughts in my brain.
This is what I get when sleeping in a tent…
Away from home, to a forced camp.
To make matters worse the rain just came
The tent got wet, and I’m underwater
Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy I’m dying
My life is worthless, that’s what I’m implying.
I opened my jack knife, and a clean snap.
But covered by silence, no one could tell.
I stifled a sniggered and put it close to it…
I...
