Tired of people taking advantage
Tried to make people happy
But wasn’t successful
Every method taken backfired
...
As I lay eyes upon the lady of the fountain
A tremendous work of art standing to this day
Holding the hopes and dreams of people
Flocking towards her everyday
...
The weight of responsibility
Lies heavily upon my shoulders
Trying to collapse my world
By bringing it crashing down
...
Slowly going insane
No one to talk to
Bottling up my feelings
Slowly turning to stone
...
The first shades appear noticed
Obvious as the sun and the moon
High above the grounds of the earth
Nature taking effect at its worst
...
I implore to you with all my heart
Dont leave me alone with myself
...
A curtain of red slowly makes its decent down
Covering everything behind the scenes
...
There is two things certain in life
One is that life is given
The other is that its taken
It is up to you to decide
...
Escaped from a personal hell
Found sanctuary far away
Know it’s temporary
Know its coming to an end
...
i have got it all
but i didnt get you
i am flying around all alone
a hundred paths before me
...
Have seen for the first time
The beauty the world has to offer
I close my eyes
And there is a portrait in my head
...
Time is coming to an end
Thinking should’ve done something
Has another one fallen from my fingertips
Clinging to false hope
...
A few years a go we were kids
Nothing to worry about
Only when our next meal comes
How to pass time
...
There is a place where dreams gather
A place where they go to die
...
Which road to take
So many to choose from
I stand at cross roads
All unfamiliar to me
...
Caught up in the euphoria of it all
Trying for it not to take hold
Wondering when the
Mind, body and soul
...
I first got into writing poetry through a friend of mine, who regularly use to make me read his poems. He inspired me to start writing some of my own poems. After writing my first poem i liked the many different ways to express what i am trying to say. So i carried on with it, using it as an outlet on what i want to say but have trouble saying it directly to people)
Tired Of People Taking Advantage
Tired of people taking advantage
Tried to make people happy
But wasn’t successful
Every method taken backfired
Trying to bridge the gap created
But seems like another is being formed
No one thinking about each other
Just themselves
Thinking no point anymore
Just causing more stress
Leave things as they are
Let them be ignorant
Theres no unity anymore
No strong figure to unite them
Slowly drifting apart
Soon there will be nothing left
