Courtney Steele Poems

INNOCENCE, INNOCENCE OH WHY DO I CRY? INNOCENCE, INNOCENCE WHERE IS THE TRUTH OVER THE LIE? INNOCENCE, INNOCENCE CAN THE GROUND KEEP ME DOWN? INNOCENCE OH INNOCENCE, WHO KEEPS PULLING YOU DOWN?

FAIL TO THE SYSTEM MY INNOCENCE WAS TAKING AWAY
I WISH FOR IT BACK EACH AND EVERY DAY
...

WHEN I HEAR THIS WORD I DON'T THINK OF JOY & PRIDE

I THINK OF FATAL DESTRUCTION THAT DESTROYS FROM THE INSIDE
...

CAN'T SLEEP MORE AFRAID I MIGHT FORGET THE PITCH OR YOUR VOICE

CANT SLEEP NO MORE WHEN I'M LEFT WITHOUT A CHOICE
...

HOW SHOULD I FEEL OR HOW IS IT SUPPOSED TO BE

WHEN I TRY TO REACT SOMETHING JUST TAKES OVER ME
...

.HAVING STRENGTH IS NOT IMPOSSIBLE BUT MAKING SOMEONE LOVE YOU IS
STRENGTH IS EXERTING EFFORT WHEN THERE IS NOTHING PRESENT TO GIVE
STRENGTH IS FINDING A WAY WHEN IT SEEMS NO WAY TO LIVE
STRENGTH IS UNDERSTANDING NO ONE IS PERFECT AND BEING ABLE TO FORGIVE
...

I WASTE SO MUCH TIME HELPING OTHERS

THAT I FORGET ABOUT ME
...

TURNING MY CHEEK
CHANGING MY VIEW
CHANGING THE WAY I LOOK & FEEL WHEN I STARE AT YOU
FORGIVING THE LIARS
...

WHY DO WE EXPECT?

THINGS TO OCCUR WHEN DESTINY WANT LET
...

Throughout my life I have known that I’m special
Living can’t breathe it’s too much pressure
It involves too many lectures
Offered as spoken words
...

10.

To my standards there isn't any form
Torn
Clothing worn
Days in and out
...

Why do I contend?
What is there to defend?
Lost in the waste side down on the deep end
Lossing all hope
...

12.

BEAUTY SO UNIQUE AND GENTLE
EVEN IN YOUR IMPERFECTION I SEE POTENTIAL
TRUST IS ESSENTIAL
THERE IS NO NEED TO LET GO
...

HOW CAN YOU JUDGE OTHERS? KNOWING OTHERS JUDGE YOU
TO AVOID HURT THAT'S WHAT HUMANS DO
WORDS UNTRUE
MAINLY UNKIND
...

WHAT DO THIS WORLD WANT?
WHAT DO OTHERS NEED?
LET THEM GO.
LET THEM RUN.
...

NO NEED TO BE PETTY

NO NEED FOR PITTY
...

16.

My love is involuntary impulse like living with Toureets

Each movement I don't take is moments of regret
...

THAT WAS SOMEBODY CHILD
THAT WAS SOMEBODY FRIEND
BEAUTY CONSIST OF QUALITY SO OF COURSE, IT NEVER ENDS
THINGS WE STILL HAVE THAT WE NO LONGER SEE
...

18.

LET IT BE PURE
LET IT BE FREE
LET IT HAVE IT'S OWN THOUGHTS WITH NO REGARDS TO ME
LET IT FIND SOMETHING SACRED
...

I know it's wrong for there to be a you & I
To my soul, my spirit, and my body I lie
My conrade my dearest allie
When my truth is dismissed there are no longer reasons to cry
...

THE WORLD SITS STILL WHILE WE TAKE OUR CHANCES
SEEDS ARE SOWED EVERYTHING SEEMS PLANTED
OR ALIGNED IF WE SPEAK THE TRUTH EVERYTHING IS MISUNDERSTOOD
WHAT IS GOOD?
...

The Best Poem Of Courtney Steele

My Innocence Killed Me

INNOCENCE, INNOCENCE OH WHY DO I CRY? INNOCENCE, INNOCENCE WHERE IS THE TRUTH OVER THE LIE? INNOCENCE, INNOCENCE CAN THE GROUND KEEP ME DOWN? INNOCENCE OH INNOCENCE, WHO KEEPS PULLING YOU DOWN?

FAIL TO THE SYSTEM MY INNOCENCE WAS TAKING AWAY
I WISH FOR IT BACK EACH AND EVERY DAY
AS I LIE SMOTHERED UNDERGROUND
I COULD HAVE SURVIVED IF INNOCENCE WOULD HAVE STAYED AROUND
MY SHELTER, MY GROUND, AND ALSO MY ROOF
WHICH WAS DESIGNED ONLY TO PROTECT MY PROOF
EVIDENCE IS SUBMITTED ONLY TO HELP
WHEN I TURNED TO LOOK INTO YOUR EYES YOU LEFT
SEEKING WEALTH
ONLY TO LEAVE ME INSIDE AN EMPTY CHAMBER
FILLED WITH SO MUCH MAINLY ANGER
MY DISAPPOINTMENT IS PERCEIVED AS RAGE
IT'S JUST A CRAZE
TO BE TAKEN OUT OF MY MISERY RELEASED FROM THIS CAGE


INNOCENCE, INNOCENCE OH WHY I CRY? INNOCENCE, INNOCENCE WHERE IS THE TRUTH OVER THE LIE? INNOCENCE, INNOCENCE CAN THE GREED KEEP ME DOWN? INNOCENCE OH INNOCENCE, WHO KEEPS PULLING YOU DOWN?

NEGATIVE INTERIOR EMOTIONALLY INFERIOR
WHY DOES MY FREEDOM HAVE TO BE DESTROYED OVER MATERIAL?
LOOKING AT INNOCENCE AND IT SEEMS SO STRANGE.
LOOKING AT MY SITUATION AND REALIZING NOTHING WILL CHANGE.
PURE INJUSTICE TRAIL IS NOT THE SAME.
TAKING MENTAL PICTURES PLACING THEM INSIDE A FRAME.
WHEN THEY ENTER HELL HOPELY THEY BURN IN FLAMES.
I WILL NEVER BE THE SAME.
TO DEATH WHAT IS GAIN?
TO BONDAGE WHAT IS A CHAIN?


INNOCENCE WAS SLAINED AS THEY SCREAMED OUT MY NAME I'M ASKING FOR CHANGE GOT DEATH IN EXCHANGE PARDON MY SCREAM AND KICKS FORGET ABOUT MY INNOCENCE FREEDOM INVOLVE TRICKS AND I CAN'T HELP BUT LAUGH MY INNOCENCE IS THE ONLY REASON I GOT STABBED ON THIS SLAB AS I'M SLICED IN HALF REACHING FOR THE INNOCENCE THAT I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GRAB YELLING OUT SO UNJUST VOICE YELLS OUT HUSH AND RUSH INTO MY EMBRACE AS THEY REVIVE MY SPIRIT AND TOUCH MY FACE. IS IT GOD OR INNOCENCE THAT I CHASE?


INNOCENCE, INNOCENCE WHY DO I CRY? INNOCENCE, INNOCENCE WHERE IS THE TRUTH OVER THE LIE? INNOCENCE, INNOCENCE CAN GREED KEEP ME DOWN?
INNOCENCE OH INNOCENCE, WHO KEEPS PULLING YOU DOWN.
