the facts
Let’s face the facts.
No matter who you want to be, you cant.
Only because this society has their thoughts set in concrete contracts.
So if you love the wrong gender, wear the wrong clothes…
Society will eat you alive like a colony of fire ants.
I couldn't take it. So I arose.
I arose from the deep dark waters they infested and became bigger.
So big that their insults were now the size of bacteria.
It was almost as easy as pointing a gun and pulling the trigger.
But I couldn't.
This vicious cycle cannot continue.
No more fighting, no more violence!
We have to stand up for each other and rid the silence.
The silence that kept us still, wooden
The silence that brung our fears to life and made us small once more.
We are all equal so why can’t we act like it?
We could have just broken the silence with a loud and brave roar!
We could all form a puzzle, a puzzle where we all fit.
A community where everyone is kind.
But that won’t ever happen…
Everyone that holds the title “popular” is blind.
Yet somehow they rise above us.
They are always the biggest species.
I still believe in my dream.
The shine in someone's eyes the hope they bring.
All it takes is a little gleam…
To break the facts to tear right through the seems!
No longer shall these “facts” remain.
first poem! glad to be on here XD

Sure You Do
You say you care
But do you really
Don't you dare
Think I'm silly
I'm not fine
I'm not alright
And while you shine
My heart’s as dark as night
You say you love me
But I know its a lie
You tell me to see
But look me in my eye
I've been through this before
I've been hurt by worse
You call me a *****
And I ask for the next verse
You say I'm crazy
And I agree
Not because I’m lazy
But because in my head I feel like a banshee
I'm always screaming for help
Never receiving
I cry and yelp
But I just end up grieving
You say you love me
And expect "love you too"
You turn to me with glee
And I turn to you
All you deserve is “sure you do”
and now you finally feel it too.
Sorry for being inactive
