Raiden Crow: Poems

Raiden Crow Nov 2017

It seems to me
That many people nowadays
Only want blind loyalty
From other people
They don't want
To be questioned
They don't want
To be told they are wrong
They just want
People who never question anything
That they do
And I say that is B.S.
Because believe it or not
The people who really care
Who truly love you
The ones you can really trust
Are the ones not afraid to tell you
"You are being dumb."
Because you can trust to know
They aren't lying

Real friends are the ones who will look you dead in the eye and call you on your crap. They don't just stand idly

I See You

Raiden Crow Oct 2017

I See You

I see you.
The real you.
Not the girl who has succumbed.
But the girl who is trying to change what she has become.
I see past the scars and fake smiles and nervous laughter.
And see longing for the life you sought after.
The life outside the broken past.
The life of happiness that will forever last.
You tried to fill it time after time,
But instead bury with choices laced with grime.
You hope the path you walk now will lead you to it.
Though sadly its not true
Not one bit.
The path you walk will bury you more,
So much so your wings will never let you soar.
Trapped in a cage, that you claim to enjoy,
But to be honest love, it feels like its all a ploy.
Not to live, but to simply survive.
And you and i both know, that is no way to thrive.
I can see you.
The real you
The only question now is
Do you?

I wrote this about a specific person. Someone who i care about deeply and see them making the same mistakes that caused so much pain and damage before. However, this work can also be used to describe persons of both genders.

On My Own

Raiden Crow Oct 2017

On My Own

When I'm on my own,
The world is clear.
When I'm on my own,
Everything makes sense.
When I'm on my own,
I feel everything.
When I'm on my own,
I feel the joy.
When I'm on my own,
I feel the pain.
When I'm on my own,
I feel the rage.
When I'm on my own,
I wish I could turn back time.
When I'm on my own,
I wish things could change.
When I'm on my own,
I miss you..
When I'm on my own,
I want to be here with you.

Being alone happens. Its normal. We can still enjoy life, but sometimes just having someone there who wants to experience the world as much as you do is the best experience you could ever have..

Things I Wish I Could Say..

Raiden Crow Nov 2017

Things I Wish I Could Say..

There is so much
So much in my head
So many things I wish I could say
I wish I could say to you
But I only have these thoughts
In certain moods of the day
In anger, I want to say:
That you act like immature teenager sometimes..
That sometimes the things you say just aggrivate me to no end..
That it makes me want to smash my head against a wall..
That you don't know as much as you think..
In sadness, I want to say:
That I miss seeing you
That I sometimes feel like I don't know you anymore
That I feel you drifting
That I feel I'm losing you
That you might already be gone...
In happiness, I want to say:
That you are one if the best things that ever happened to me
That I don't regret a thing with you
That all I want to do is sit with you and just talk the day away
That I love you...
But I can't
Because you aren't here anymore
And when you are its too brief to say it
And if I do, you might leave
So these can only stay as
Things I wish I could say..

So much jumbled in my mind... and no way to express it.... except with this.... and no one may see the message..

— The End —
