I'm sorry I grew up.
I guess they never understood.

Humanity, fears calamity,
Stop killing people of nature,
Don't act so witty!

Humans feared animals once,
People fear people today,
I'll continue, only if your allowance...

Nobody is above nature,  
You are nothing more than,
Just another creature..

You **** people who refuse to accept,
You abducted some girls for your team's lust,
And the rich fled, while their homes you theft..

It is justice, from where,  this idea crept?

I tried to follow the footsteps of our government,
And I fell inside me and you..
Our government belongs to us,
Their governance means to us..
 

Things done by any Minster,
Must not be just for his or her brother sister..
What they do, Needs to be,
For me and you too!

Let's re - sketch the political structure,
And don't let it retrace, then it would rupture..

For ages I didn't act as myself,
I forgot that I was sentenced death,
The day i took birth,
It's law of nature,
As true and as powerful as rest of its laws,
So same, so true,
For me, for you..

We do not need to survive,
We need to live,
We weren't born just to stay alive,
But to thrive..

I prolonged my development,
I am so ashamed,
In this game of society,
I too have /had been gamed..

I haven't been myself till now,
But, I'll be for all the time so left
A poem for my parents, am so pleased to be your daughter, I can never write about your love and stuff, but just can write about the way you've sacrificed your tastes, for rearing us...

Thank you so much mummy, thank you so much papa..

the walk
took a turn
onto a mud filled road
either being ****** in
the mud
or tripped up
by huge stones
placed precisely
in my path
struggling to advance forward
feeling the constant pull
to go back
knowing it would be easier

stopping
i strain desperately
for any sign of encouragement
that continuing ahead
is the path
i must take.

nudge, nudge

I'm ready to burst into laughter
This really brightens my day
And so every class thereafter
Goes just exactly my way

"Accidentally" moving my arm
Then waiting for me to return it
I fear it's doing both of us harm--
This game has got us out-witted

Kicking my foot from under the table
Gets a real kick outta me
And you'll know I'm actually able
To play along the way it should be
If anyone has suggestions to replace the line "This game has got us out-witted" with, I would be very grateful.

I wanted to include this in the "Best Friends" series but I feel like it should stand on its own.
I can't explain it, the feeling
Like an open wound that isn't healing
Until the pain creeps from the ceiling
The love a gaping hole keeps stealing

And I don't understand why
The black-winged angels can't fly
Mother nature starts to cry
As the bodies swing goodbye

The Reaper knows what to take
Pleading mercy at the stake
Don't touch me or I'll break
Standing alone in its wake
Written during gym class. My friend told me it sounds like a prophecy, hence the title.
I'm not the daughter you want me to be
And I'm not the person I see
In my dreams, in my dreams
I wanna be less like you
More like me
Escape your hatred
Without looking back because
I'm not who we think I am
Yeah, that little girl you see--
That's not me, that's not me
Stuck in the side notes
Clashing the two boats
Getting away from you
That's what I have to do
To shatter the towers you built
Expectations you used to make--
They're fake, they're fake
I'll be myself tonight
And I'm ready for a fight
Classify under "Rant." I'm constantly questioning what it means to be myself.
The birds, they're sleeping
Why are they
Sleeping?
Don't they know tomorrow
The sun will rise like
It has never risen, and the trees
Will sway as if they've never moved?
Don't they know, those birds
Tomorrow the river will flow like
Its power has awoken from a slumber, and
The fish will run rampant as if being rebellious?
Silly birds, don't they know
Not to fall asleep in midair, because--
Look! They're dropping like
There is a sudden wave of gravity--oh

The birds, they're dying
Why are they
Dying?
The innocence (or maybe ignorance?) of a child faced with pollution and habitat destruction.
