22/M/South Africa Just another guy with a lot on his mind. Enjoy.
- U + Me equals to a mathematical problem Solve for x but there's no answer at the bottom Believe me I tried calculating the variables But no matter what, the answer is still unattainable Y you ask? Because this equation is unexplainable - Remember the X you told me not to worry about Yeah the one you said left a mark I know you still see him in the dark He still is the flame in your life And I guess that makes me just a spark - But I'm not perfect There was a X I had to subtract I told you I did just so you don't overreact But as our arguments multiplies Our attention to solve this problem divides I am no mathematician but The sum just don't add up and after so many tries Maybe it's about time to say our final goodbyes - Lowkie ©

U + Me
- I salute you for raising me on your own Through blood, sweat and tears Look mom I'm still here Look mom I'm all grown - I have some issues I have to get through But I don't want them affecting you My dreams, my thoughts, my poetry It may all sound like a mess to you But I feel like God sent me with a message And delivering it is something I have to do - I'm sorry if I didn't turn out as you expected But in this world You always got to make room for disappointments I'm sorry if I didn't turn out as you expected But in this world I felt rejected I did not become suicidal Because that's what expected I became a story teller Now I feel accepted - Lowkie © Thoughts Of A Quiet Mind © #happymothersday 🌹🌺

Dear Mom
- Hey you Did anyone ever tell you you're beautiful? With all your flaws and mistakes Your imperfections is what makes you great Your inner beauty is something they can't take - Hey you, yes you Did anyone ever tell you that you're cool Don't let anybody make you feel like a fool I know this world can be cruel Don't let them get to you Believe in yourself That's the number one rule - I know how it feels to be degraded The judgment was weighing heavy on me I started getting faded I couldn't look at myself in the mirror All I saw was what the world had concluded I'm still struggling to let go of that illusion - Lowkie ©

Hey You
- How did I end up loving you? Is it the way you move? Looks you're ready to conquer the world - The same world that bought me pain The same world that wanted me to change The same world that made me feel like a caged bird - I love you cause you conquered my world - How did I end up loving you? Is it the way you speak? Your voice acts like my anxiety meds - Every time you speak Another voice in my head goes to sleep That means one less suicidal thought That means one more demon defeated - I love you cause there's nothing That heals me like you do Lowkie®

Loving You
It's temporary, yet we seek it. It's forbidden, yet we lust it. It's deadly, yet we crave it. It's addictive, yet we "experiment". It's disappointing, yet we never learn. It's surprising, yet we rush it. It's tasteless, yet it's fills us. It's dreadful, yet it's unexplainable. It's spiteful, yet it's addictive

Pleasures Of Life
- I write my pain on a piece of paper Hoping to forget it later They told me it would make me stronger But all it did was get me addicted to the torment Now all I ever think about Is how to write my pain in different formats - The reactions I get for my thoughts are crazy Don't get me wrong I like the attention, it motivates me Poetry has changed me People say I'm beast with a pen But really I'm just basic I got people praying that I make it I'm just praying I don't go crazy - I write my pain on a piece of paper Hoping to forget it later "How do you still feel alone When people are telling you they're going through the same thing?" That's what changed me While others rate me I pray we don't go past the point of 'no saving' - Lowkie®

Pain
- Let me take you to another place We can call it out of space Let me take you to the stars A place where you belong A place where you won't feel pain any longer - Roll a blunt and get high Sit back and enjoy the flight As we watch trouble pass us by There is beauty in your red eyes I can see the pain hidden in your eyes This is a safe space to cry Please don't be shy - Let me take you to a place called Kloud 9 We can watch the stars align And take that as a sign That all dreams come true here at Kloud 9 And we will be fine As we slip on some fine wine And continue to shine - Lowkie ®

Kloud 9
- I wish I could go back in time To tell that little boy it's okay to cry Pour your heart out until Your tears go dry Because it will hard to move forward If you don't give 'letting go' a try - I wish I could go back in time To tell that little boy to practice his rhymes Perform to your friends in your free time I know you got a lot your mind But no matter what the voices say You never stop the climb To reach your prime - I wish I could go back in time To commit a crime By changing what happened in the past And alter the present In hopes of a better future - Lowkie®

Note To Self
One rose for the loved ones we lost Through memories You will forever live on in our thoughts In our hearts We carry the lessons you taught us Through our mouths We speak the language you spoke - Another rose for our silent soldiers With scars that show physically From wars that they fight mentally - People labelled them as crazy Parents often refers to them as lazy As they sit under the palm trees Dazed off the purple haze Wondering through their mental maze Searching for a mental escape Hiding behind a smile and "I'm okay thanks." - Lowkie ®

One Rose
To whom it may concern When I die Light up my body and let it burn I wish the tables could turn I pray I die and return Because this is not me This is not who I hoped to be - To whom it may concern Know that I'm going to a better place A place where I can be free A place where I can be me A place with no past A place with no future A place with no hate A place with no jealously A place of peace A special place for people like me - To whom it may concern I'm killing myself but not physically I'm killing the person who they thought I would be - Lowkie®
