saltypeanut1 - Hello Poetry

I walked down a ***** road, my friend gave me a nag He pointed at a poor boy, no food, saw him drool Didn't care much, had chips in my bag But he wasn't going to school, he rarely got chips maybe he got forced labor, unnecessary whips I wanted the chips. But they needed food, any food, I unzipped my bad, took out the crisp bag, lightening up the boy's mood I wanted it, he needed anything, at least; to keep him going. I tossed the bag, the boy caught it His face was smiling, the moment was lit.

I'll tell you all the things stuck in my head I've tried to stay strong, be a man But my strength slowly washes away, feel dead Don't tell me what I should do, you trashcan Don't tell me what I can be. I sail over you, I'm the master of my sea You forget about me, unless you want something from me I didn't lose you as a friend, I realized you never were a friend. You were my shadow, you see You followed me in the sun And left me in the dark. Not done.

Fake friend

I'll tell you all the things stuck in my head I've tried to stay strong, be a man But my strength slowly washes away, feel dead Don't tell me what I should do, you trashcan Don't tell me what I can be. I sail over you, I'm the master of my sea You forget about me, unless you want something from me I didn't lose you as a friend, I realized you never were a friend. You were my shadow, you see You followed me in the sun And left me in the dark. Not done.

I ran down the muddy track Certain that the art of losing was too easy to master But no, behind my back Ran hundreds of other people, faster, and faster they ran. not for fame because they too were running in the marathon of life's shame they too were jobless like me maybe penny-less the competition was too tough for me after all, I'm a young chap, you see Thus, I bequeathed myself to the ***** track Fell there Gave up Cause I knew, I was never the man for the job.
