If I was a poem
I could tell you my secrets
Without fear of judgement

If I was a poem
I could be ugly
And you would still think I'm beautiful

If I was a poem
My problems would be a source of art
And not painful baggage

If I was a poem
You would actually listen

I'm a bad guy
I stand up for myself
Even against friends
Because I respect my safety

I'm a bad guy
I'm not perfect
But I try to do the right thing
So other people will stop

I'm a bad guy
I refuse to keep taking shots
I fight back
It's not always smart but I'm not a target

I'm a bad guy
I use my voice during affliction
Other people pay for their crimes
And I'm always the one blamed

I try to make amends
And when they don't accept my apology
I become the bad guy
I wrote this after a conflict with another co-worker at work, who despite going crazy on me, tells people I'm a really bad guy. Not my best but whatever haha

This face you see isn't real
This smile is fake
This laugh isn't genuine
Might as well be plastic
Since its stuck

I put this mask on to hide
Hide from the people and their words
Maybe if I don't show it
They will stop leaving

My eyes have run out of tears
My mouth dry of words
Can't seem to conquer my fears
I mask it with a fake face

I'm a zombie with a party mask
I drag but seem alright
My face tells them I'm fine
But I'm dead
I can't live while walking in the land of the dead

"Push it down"
They tell me
"Don't let it show"
I tell myself

Sometimes it feels like God won't help
These lies give me different masks
Anger puts them on
Fear keeps them on

Saying what I feel isn't an option
So I'll keep these masks
Say hello to my fake face
this poem is about being fake but its one of the realest I've ever written

If my watch breaks
Then I will show you the wrinkles
On my heart
So you know how long
I've been waiting for your love
waiting....

Those silly songs;
so sad but true
With lost feelings
of me and you

I played it on
with the tape's side A
Felt like blossoms of dawn
and flowers of May

I flipped the tape
Found side B's empty
The same thing I get
Every time you look at me

"You'll get over this."
You once confided
That's what our love is;
Too one-sided
I wrote this three years ago and I'd love to share it here with you! ♥

I wonder what secret
The trees whisper to the breeze?
Do the birds hear that secret
And announce it in their song?

Does the wind hold it
And drop it in the seas?
Does the sea speak it out
And share it with the stars?

Do the heavens then resound
With the secret of the trees?

And the clouds,
Oh yes! Those clouds
Blue, black and grey
Is that why come rushing?

Across the seas to caress
With gentle rain the trees
And whisper,
"Heaven knows your heart,
There are no secrets from God."

The trees smile and sway
Fulfilled and complete in love.
