Growing up between
two cultures
too less for some
too much for others
too many expectations

Give your life away
emru Jul 2019
People who give their life away have it easy. Only people who already have died few times can understand them. The others are confused and left alone, until they understand
and maybe do the same
or maybe have the courage
to take the hard path
of living

Words > actions
emru Jul 2019
„Actions speak louder than words“

Words are your action
Which speak louder than any action
But not every action is silent
And not every word is loud
Which words will whisper
And what actions will scream
is for you to decide

Stabbing my heart
emru Jul 2019
im not suicidal
but the pen stabs me every time
a little bit of blood creates a poem

im not surrounded by enemies only
but the enemies stab me every time
i don't bleed then, i only cry
a little bit of tears create a poem
poems stronger than through blood
poems strengthened by sadness

Waiting
emru Jul 2019
i sit there
waiting
the clock ticks faster
time’s getting away
the heart beats slower
life‘s melting away
my mind and time never in tact
i sit there
waiting
waiting to know
what will happen
waiting to die
waiting to live
or waiting to lie and say i’ve never truly lived
waiting to know what will happen
after im dead and my poems still alive
waiting to know
if im gonna make it
waiting to know
if im gonna slit it

i know nobody wants to know
what im waiting for
but for that one kid, sitting in his room
thinking and waiting, that his life is hell
don’t think about it

write about it, paint about it, sing about it

A Punch In The Face

in a box
emru Jul 2019
Time is limited,
Use it well,
Don’t be bigoted,
live in hell,
Your hours are
minimal,
Should ring a bell,
Minutes used right
can be pivotal,
don‘t live in a shell,
These few seconds can be
Critical,

do not create your own cell

Shifting through the night

my mood shifts, drifts till im worn out
my brain ‘bout to check-out, my art a vain, pierces through my heart, cheerless atmosphere, stuck like glue

passing away
emru Jul 2019
kids are more scared of failing class, instead of being scared to not know what to do in life

they are more focused on passing a class instead of passing with a meaningful life

storms in your mind
emru Jun 2019
in the middle of a  storm, in your mind, there are too many. You can‘t fight multiple wars in your head.
If there is only one,
you can run away.

too many storms, around you,
there is no way out.
you cant get out.

unless.

there is someone, with a umbrella, wanting to help you.

let yourself get helped

it starts with confidence
emru Jun 2019
too much confidence,
resolves in pride.
too much pride resolves in-
isolating yourself,
not letting others help you.
nobody helping you;
resolves in death.

depressing situation
emru Apr 2019
if you can come out of a depressing situation and
after a while you find yourself again in one
compare yourself to your earlier self
are still just as miserable like you were in the past?
if not;
you've grown.

what do i love...?
emru Apr 2019
what do i love...?

everytime someone asks me that,
i think of my family. my parents, brother and sister,
niece and nephews, but...

that would be a lie. would i die for them? yes. but only because they are family, there are a few persons among them whom i cannot stand.
if some of them were not my kin, i wouldnt even consider putting my hand into a fire for them.

its hard to admit but its the truth.

the real things that you love are,
things which shouldnt mean anything to you. but they still do.
for example;
friends.
its hard to admit but its the truth.

love yourself
emru Apr 2019
love yourself then love others.
     because above all others
          there is you.
               if you don't even believe in yourself,
                           you have to defeat, beat, decieve the
                                           evil demons that beat inside of you

                                                   until then
                                            you finally can be
                                                       even.

live
emru Apr 2019
everyone thinks,
but not enough

everyone acts,
but not enough

everyone makes a choice,
but not always the right one

everyone lives,
but not the right way

the key to life is
living

old love

sometimes old love,
never went away.

oftentimes it's still there,
but the love is bent and

Middle
emru Mar 2019
I Can't Find The Middle Of
   My Emotions,
I Am Either Sad Or Happy,
          Angry Or In Love.

I Either Get Too Much Sleep Or
Too Little.
I Either Commit Too Much or Too Little.
What Should I Do?

balance
emru Mar 2019
i keep my balance,
    throughout the day,
         until you meet my way.
              suddenly feeling dizzy,
                    tipsy, looking at your
                              pretty face.

Commitment
emru Mar 2019
No luck with love
I'll admit it.

I commit and dive in,
sort of stuck.

All in or not at all,
that's my premise.

Awe-struck always,
if it's not working.

Advise
emru Mar 2019
eyes locked

the idea of love falls apart,
my allies try to
advise,
to organize my thoughts

I love my heart so i speak it.
The freedom, i seek it.
I need and believe it.
I've got more tricks up my sleeve.
You'll see when i achieve and
succeed.
On the highest degree.
What a relief.

My Heart

I press the tip
against the paper.
It drips and bleeds.

One layer of my heart,
strips off for every poem i read.

You and your
emru Mar 2019
A little piece of
my soul comes out.
Everytime I see you.
You,
with your golden locks.
And
those beautiful eyes
lighted up by the sun.
I could talk about you all day.

Old souls

The winter suits him best.
A cold soul,
out in the cold.
No shivering.
He’s so old,
already used to this

Love
emru Mar 2019
One of the hardest things,

you can do,

is to let go.

Let it go.

Let it be wild.

Maybe,

someday

it’ll come back.

Cascade
emru Mar 2019
I am on the edge of a waterfall.
I don’t want to do this.

To stop this waterfall,
I think of all the good things in life.

Now the waterfall,
got heavier.

And I fall deeper
into it.

— The End —
