They keeping telling us
Over
And
Over
And

Over
Again,

To plan for the future.

But you see,
How do we know if the future even exists?
How do we know that world won’t end tomorrow night?

We don’t.
It might not.
But then it could.
Another MaYbE...

sMaLl AnD bIg wHaT iF’s KeEp PlAyInG iN oUr MiNdS

SO INSTEAD OF CARING
We spend our days
SMOKING DOPE
And screaming names
INTO THE ENDLESS VOIDS
We call our
BREAKING HEARTS!

We spend every night
IN SHOPPING TROLLEYS
And empty car parks
WALKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD
And running along train tracks
UNTIL WE BRUISE OUR KNEES
With stupid promises and naive thoughts.







They keep telling us
To
Grow
Up
And,

Act
Normal

That no one will accept us for us.

But you see,
We don’t care what anyone thinks!
Or the reasons why they think it.

Why should we?
Maybe we should.
But we don’t.
And WhO cArEs?

wHy SpEnD sO mUcH tImE wOrRyInG wHiLe YoU cOuLd Be LiViNg?

SO WHILE THE REST OF THE WORLD IS AWAKE
We dream of first kisses
AND NEW SENSATIONS
Mixed with sweat and lies
WHILE OUR HEART
Burn and stay alight
IN THE MIDDLE OF SPACE.

We whisper everything
AND NOTHING ABOUT THE INBETWEENS
Of what it’s like to be held
DURING THE NIGHTS
We feel nothing and everything at once
CALL US NUMB
We know what we are and what we want.

Paranoia has become a normal emotion
Sweaty wrists
Is he coming for me
There is only a room full of lust
Hardened hearts, created trust
Still the world yells don't give up
Open your arms feel the aura of selfish love
Communicate with the gods to support a narrow thinking
The thick grotesque feeling
No worries
It forms mortality
You will be one with the kings
Morals never meant anything
Give into the need
The touch as the thorn crown presses harshly
No blood just crimson red sins bleeding

What did you do to the UK?

Why did lessen the worth of the pound today?

Where do you want us to go? There's no escape.

Who let UKIP have their way?

When did maths become a political debate?

Why did the 24th June 2016 become UK independence day?
In maths we were talking about leaving the EU.

Are you?
yes, I always have.
How did you know?
I just did
So is it like this?
I don't know.
Ok...I understand.
Do you really?
Ye, it's just the opposite. It's the same really.
Just stop pretending you know everything.
I was just trying... to understand how.
I don't care that you don't.
I don't get it.
Exactly, you never will.
When asking questions isn't going to make you understand. You need to stop and think about how you're making the other person feel.

Why would you say that?
I know it's maths
but to say "that 3% of the population are gay that's one in the class.
Who do you think is the ***?
Let's find 'em"
is not appropriate.

You didn't realise
that 3% was sat in front of you
feeling like they can't come out
because of people like you
who talk as if they're bad
like you're going to beat them down
verbally or physically.

You don't realise that people are afraid
to say who they are
they feel as though they're shamed
because of who they are.
It's people like me under your verbal attack
and everyone else questions
why you would say that?
Some idiot in maths was saying this stuff and it made me angry because of how ignorant he is. Also, it's 10% but for my school it probably is less than 3%.

I’m just popping out for cigarettes
Just popping out
But he never returned
Everyday someone just pops out and never returns
It was out of character
Something must have happened
She left the keys in the ignition, her mobile on the seat
She hasn’t been seen since
It doesn’t make sense
Everyday someone will just walk out the door and never return
They all have their reasons
Stress, money troubles, relationship breakdowns
For the loved ones left behind
Some never recover
****** is always the first thought
Some return in time
Some return after several years
Some change identities, and never return
Eighty percent of people who go missing have mental health issues
Teenagers make up the biggest numbers
The greatest tragedy in all of this is
The Police may find people after several years
The missing person will tell them they don’t want to be found
The loved ones never know this.

Like industrialisation
May seem
Like
Progress,
But
In reality
It's
A mess!
It's
A vacant creation
VACUOUS!
It' s
Against NATURE !
Against
Purity
And
Truth.
It's
Nothing to do  with
Old age or Youth,
Biology
And
ALL
The
Ologies...
Academics
Scientists
Historians
Politicians
Theologia­ns...
Do Not Call The Shots!
Remember
This
My
Precious
Children
Which
At your outset
Outshine
The
Establishment...
Created
By
...?
These words have been cut short because of my lack of concentration... The poem is not concluded.

i can not help but speak inaniloquently
is this the reason for my cachinnation at the world?
the society is blatherskite to me in everyway
the cerulean is lacking truth due to society's view
why does comminatory slither through our eyes, like the perfect disguise?
i hope for a world of disenthral, without the leading of so much passion withdraw
i do not stand for exsanguine, or the end of our precious humanity

Can we find it in our hearts
To help the victims of the world
If we all cry one tear
And offer it to mankind
There will be no thirst again
Thoughts are lost in closed minds
Thoughts are lost in closed minds
We have enough in the western world to offer help to the victims of this world
Just offer one prayer before you close your eyes

Just Me R
With one silent tear
A million words were spoken
But they all refused to hear
Just how much she was broken

the acts of one can **** another
one man and a gun killed someones brother,
someones sister, someones lover

one bullet leaves them dead
the blood they bled
left the ground stained red

they will be remembered for what another had done
by the actions of only one
with the power of a gun
The US need tighter gun laws so cowardly people can not **** people for being themselves. It's sad to see so many people be lost in such a tragic way. Two shootings and one attempted shooting in two days should not be acceptable.
