What is this life,
That I am living?
So much goes on,
It goes by so fast.
I'm stressed and depressed,
So I drink.
I drink and I am numb.
I drink and the problems that once were there disappear.

I fell in it
A handful of times
Those burning embers
Of love and trust
The consuming flames
Of the pleasures of lust
The perpetual game
Of push and shove

I get tired
And burned out
Running from all
Life's broken rules
And after all
I don't care to revisit
Those old blues
But don't get me wrong
I'm still your one
And only fool

Because you know
Once or twice
In the darkest
Part of life
I was so blessed
To have your light!
I would never take your love for granted.
(My girlfriend edits all my poems for me)

This didn't even trend, how can it be a daily?
Thank you my cyber family!
Somewhere between sky and earth,
where birds tweet pleasantly,
there is a soul which needs loads of mirth,
she's a wonderful entity.

Somewhere in the garden,
where white roses are blooming,
she hides with people who's guarding,
her fragile psyche from fuming.

Somewhere in the middle of the ocean,
where whales live carefree lifes,
she's drowning in the jar of emotion,
without oxygen and love she slowly dies.

Somewhere under the cold, salty water,
where light of hope is very rare,
people search for her, mainly her mother,
to be honest plenty of humans still care.

Somewhere in a dark, misty cave,
where spiders, bats and demons live,
she is found as responsible and brave,
life is about how much love and help you give.
I want to dedicate this poem to my internet friend. I love you ❤

i am not pretty enough,
i am not skinnier enough,
i am not nice enough,
i am not fake enough,
i am not happy enough,
i am not enough,
for

for
society,
for
them,
for
anyone.
Thanks Society :(
