If we are supposed to take the road least traveled, then, why does mine have so many **** potholes?
By Arcassin Burnham



Stole my soul,
Took my breath,
Laid me to rest,
Stopped me cold,
The final step,
They had to pump my chest,
And when I say I need you,
Then that means I love you,
And that means I care,
There's no one in this world to you,
I can compare,
You made me happy at times,
And gave you all my memories,
Told you what I did,
While our hearts still on sleeves,
Some of that I can relive,
I'm obsessed over you ,
You made me change my mind,
No time or measure with you,
Treasure to you,
As long as were fine.
Midnight <3 forgiveness is a hard thing
AB:
So when the last time did you get a call from him,
He must really want you in his follows that Requiem,
I can it make better , if you wanna talk,
If anything I wanna be one you should stalk
Invading all my privacy,
And telling me you love me,
Erase,
The facts,
Clarity,
And lucid memory.

K:
It has been a while since he sang poetry into my heart,
I knew he would be the end of me, from the start,
Enraptured in desire for his love alone,
Waiting all night by the silent phone,
Could I find in you, the comforting voice I need,
Find the flourishing flower of love's rooted seed,
Rewind,
The heartache,
Regret,
And infatuated greed.

AB:
Silence always says a thousand words,
Painted a picture with your sentences when they occur,
You gotta get in the line or despare like everybody else,
No skips , no hold your place, you won't have any help,
Illusions of having wealth,
I plan to see you I can't help myself,
I never got down, on my knees for you,
I'm swimming for your love like Michael Phelps,
Will we fall in love ? The time will tell,
Calling you on the phone with volume excelled.

K:
I hear what your meaning aloud an clear,
Gotta live my life bold with nothing to fear,
Pining over a fool, not worth holding my breath for,
You walked into my life, I kicked him out the door,
Now I want you to understand what I am saying,
No need to swim for my love,
Or getting down on your knees praying,
All I need is a little of your affection,
and a little of your time,
To know if we come together,
like rhythm and rhyme,
Whatever the future holds,
the two of us will find.
Me and kalypso
Why when someone says they are religious, society judges them
When someone says they have a life partner, society judges them
When someone says they don't believe in good, society judges them

but when when boys call girls *******, no one cares
When kids make fun of the fat boy, he has to hide his shame in tears and jokes.
When Girls call her a freak, she has to hide the new slits she made last night.

The problem with society is we grow up being asked "what do we want to be in life?" but are forced to become the things we loath. Just because he's fat doesn't mean he doesn't have feelings, Just because she doesn't learn the same way doesn't mean she's a freak and just because Eminem says the word ***** in a song doesn't mean every girl that isn't socially acceptable is a *****.

Society has made us learn to become small, in stead of stand tall. We can't fallow our dreams, instead we can't dream at all. Dreaming is a part of living. Dreams are what make us become who we are, so don't throw your dreams away.
How would it affect your life
If someone said to you
You aren't good enough to succeed
At the thing you most want to do

Would you not let it get to you
And push forward to your goal
Not letting them have the satisfaction
Of having any form of control

Would it fuel you like a flame
And give you the drive to succeed
Working harder to prove them wrong
And having extra reason to proceed

Or would their words be like a dagger
And cut you to your core
And cause your mind to feel
Like its in the middle of a war

'Cause that's what your words did
They caused a battle in my brain
Continue to work towards nothing?
Or quickly abandon that train?

Part of me felt like six years of work
Should just be thrown away
I no longer had the confidence
To move forward in any way

But I knew I wouldn't be happy
If I chased any other dream
So I felt like I couldn't win
Life was a constant battle upstream

A year is how long it took
To repair what you destroyed
To put back pieces of myself
And remember what I once enjoyed

But now I'm ready to move on
And pursue the things I love
As for all your hurtful words...
I'm ready to rise above
This is the first poem in a while that I have actually been really proud of. (minus the title...I'm kinda hoping something better comes to me later :P)
I've tried to write a poem about this a couple of times and none of them have come out right. So I feel like I finally got it right hahaha. Hope you all like it :)
"Every single day's the same
And in the end I'm all alone..."
"It doesn't matter what you say...
I feel pain you've never known"

This is how you view your life
As something worth throwing away
And all I wish for is to show you
How to view it a different way

You view the world in black and white
Without any specks of grey
You chose to focus on only the bad
Which causes your own dismay

The real world is full of color
It's a giant work of art
And though it has some shadows
That is just one little part

So when all you see is darkness
And you feel life's become too glum
Just remember that it won't last
And there are brighter things to come

There is beauty all around you
And every day is a new surprise
Full of joy, and people who care
You just have to *open your eyes
