Here’s a poem I had to make for Language Arts class, where I must introduce without anything too blunt. Why I’m putting this, I don’t know. I guess I want this to last a while
Everlasting Journey
My life wouldn’t be such a mystery,
if I’d stop riddling with existence.
I was resurrected into a time where irony and hypocrisy was at their prime.
(Blending back and forth, into the the most common smoothie, gullibility)
And like the victims of a puppeteer,
we dance and snap to their tune.
Without even a rhythm or rhyme.
My being is of everything but positive,
a cackle or two, then no more.
I could’ve been the man with the plan,
yet here I am anchored down to roam the terrors of Mother Earth.
For I have experience with the upper class,
ladies and gents behaving like cocky pigs,
asking for a bullseye to hail upon their heavenly smiles.
I’v been to places where no man has gone before.
(Moving where ever the shooting star goes)
But somehow stopped and settled myself one with the ghetto.
Rusty, unrepaired, drunkards, druggies, and even rapists
makes the neighborhood almost up to par with the city that never sleeps.
Oh how I imagined to be under the clear midnight bliss and the Midnight Sun again, all I’ve got going for is the local district city lights from the mountain tops.
A sensitive kind man I am for the greater good perhaps,
forcing myself to pacify the violence in me so I may reign over my prime motives.
Struggling to strive from a passionate spirit to a tranquil standing figure,
but at the cost of wasting dreams I could’ve used for the future
and even the disability of forgetful memories, both people and events.
And the one gift I constantly asked of god to give back to me,
a stronger back to carry the heavy burdens of my delayed and dreadful path.
Gosh, WordPress makes my literature even more half-assed than before.
