Mama

cloud Nov 2015

Mama

through her eyes
her pain reflects onto me
her untold lost dreams
that were never given life

through her face
a blank canvas
fixed in another planet
struggling to confront her decisions

through her voice
my voice illuminates
singing her songs
of things lost in the past

stories that shatter the glass
breaking the surface against the rubble
she quakes in fear to tell the truth
but how can she be this mute?

don't settle in life. you'll end up waking up one day realising you've been lying to yourself for years, while your children try to understand why you are not alike.

see me

cloud Oct 2014

see me

see me
i’ve been waiting patiently for your attention
see me
do you?
need me
your touch is what i’m craving for
it keeps me wanting more

that was all I wanted
until it wasn’t enough
see me - you won't
need me - you don’t
love me - there is no definition

your touch was all i needed
until i became obsessed
Three big-small words
‘I love you’

but you abused them
you knew - what it did
to me
what you could get
from me

we love the ones that don’t see
and crap on the ones that do
see me
that was all i hoped.

go for the ones that see you, not the ones that don't. we are all beautiful creatures and we all deserve love. don't be bitter.

the chase

cloud Nov 2015

the chase

I always found myself
searching for his lips
muttering to them in silence
though he could never hear me
kissing them ever so gently
though he could never feel me
calling his name
with no response-
whilst he slept
and when he left
I knew why…
I was still running while
he gave up the chase.

the system

cloud Oct 2014

the system

**** the system
Its a prison
What’s the difference between a classroom and a cell?
Tell me
Ask me
If needs be
Papers, papers - more papers
A score on a test paper?
Do they define us?
How could they?
You teach us-what?
what we don’t want to learn
Why?
The system
**** the system

It’s education
We all learn the same thing
Im seeing it clearly
Then you test us
And we don’t fulfill

Normal
What is normal?
Cliques, Crews, Groups
Definition - basic

I’ve never been a loner
But what is normal?
The people that don’t ask questions?
or the people that question questions?
See the world differently?
or blend in to what is custom?

What is real?
What’s not?
Wake up
You’re sleeping
**** the system

Don’t we all just get a little
Fed up
With what they
Feed us
But I’m eating , aren’t I?
But why?
It’s the way out
It's the system
**** the system

this was a little rant i had in my TOK class one day ,i ended up getting mad and wrote this instead.
