F Idk, I just like writing poems
You chipped away at the wall I put up until you made a gaping hole. Then you left, so I filed it with cement.

Brick walls don't come down easily
How do you explain the unexplainable? How do you describe the indescribable? What I'm trying to say is, how do I talk about you?

He was only 16,                                                                 He wanted to join, he was too young to die,                                                                 he was old enough to fight, the loss for his family,                                                                 for the good of his country, he had so much to live for,                                                                 he had so much to die for, that poor boy,                                                                 that good boy.

Why is it that watching someone struggle and fall can be more painful than when you do?

Some people say I work too hard I agree I work too hard trying to keep my head above water I work too hard trying to impress other people I work too hard trying to suppress my emotions I work too hard trying to 'stay strong' in the face of ridicule I work too hard trying to keep my teachers happy And honestly I work too hard trying to act like I don't

They say "breathe through the pain" but what if that's what's causing it?

I ******* hate this world. I hate how it tears apart everyone I love from the inside, ripping us to shreds and blaming us for not being strong. It tells us that we are wrong or broken or not good enough to ******* carry on. But **** you. We haven’t failed. Society has.

**** you society
When your atoms collided Like leaves in the rain Did they ever suspect that they’d create Something so beautiful and happy and right? Before though, they were strength and wisdom and might. They've not changed or altered, only swapped places To form something so perfect, nothing needs changing. They've been stars and food and other people alike, But when they formed you, it was nothing but right. Your atoms collided in a beautiful way To form your fingers, your toes, your face. When I touch your face and to look into those eyes, I just see more perfection residing inside. So when I tell you I love you and that you’re perfect Look at the leaves in the rain And believe it.

Leaves in the rain
I scream and I cry and I lay down and die But only in my head I shout and I fight and I forget how to fly But I cover it with a smile instead
