Have you ever been so in love
That every time they smile it brings a high
Like the love in the movies that you hope
Never run out of replays on the reel
So you can channel that feel
Of that person with you
Touching your skin with every gentle caress
Unless that love poisons over and sours
And makes it seem like every day is a battle
For your sanity, you don’t wanna leave
But you know you can’t stay
But I guess that’s what love does to people today
You find the one that you think will complete
And never deplete
The resources in your damaged heart.
But sometimes, I guess, that’s what tears us apart.

I never want to be a beast of burden,
I happen to know that for certain
I never want to be
my own worst enemy
But I guess that takes me
to this crazy play I call life's
final curtain
I guess I am your beast of burden
and you've said it so much I can determine
that I'm next to nothing to you
a curse, a handicap, I guess it's so true
That I'm only one thing
and that is nothing
compared to what you had put me through
I'm no longer your beast of burden
I've gone away, far away, but this isn't a sermon
our toxicity has died
asking with my feelings inside
ice is in my veins
now morning remains
of your former beast of burden

it's human nature I suppose
to place concrete over a rose
to put yourself ahead of all those
that require help from us all
so that we as a society don't fall
and crumble away
like a dancers plie'
or a bad fish filet
the point is we'll all due to die one day
just be sure to make someone smile before then, okay?

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've wandered the earth and made notes about the people from place to place
I whimsically wrote
about every pope
while I made my sojourn in Rome
I waltzed to the new world, when I saw that the times had changed
I grew infatuated with their hubris
as they tried to wipe out a race, with faith...
And when they decided that it was time fir change, I was there, and clapped with the sinners, and marched with the saints
I'm pleased to meet you, did you guess my name?

Wandering mind (attempt at slam) by NeroameeAlucard
sometimes I wonder where these ideas spring from
I swear to most they seem dumb
but that may because I'm still young
and they say that the young are numb to societal indifference within this messed up world of today
Today? Today wandering eyes can get your rep ruined, hooray! but wandering minds keep you challenged and sickened from the rashest and missing ideas that crawl within your mind
it's storming outside
all rainy and cold
thunder and lightning
making me feel alone
My white Sox bear comforts me slightly
Pikachu only touches my blankets lightly
I'm not this bad about storms, but I'm feeling so spritely
I guess this isn't too be taken lightly
the water flows in from the old sewer pipe
just what else can happen tonight?
water damage, insecurity just bad vibes
oh wait... He's got it I'll be alright

I guess I'm delving in my feelings tonight as I write this poem it storms outside and that gives me no fright anymore but it did before
I swear I can't travel through life's Boggy Marshes anymore
Now don't get me wrong I'm not ending my life
but I do wish that It didn't have all the strife it's like everyday I'll wake up to a new struggle
everyday I wake up happy until somebody bursts my bubble
I guess that's why I loathe humanity at large even the bear necessities of living require some kind of charge
I mean if life's an ocean and the rich are on a barge
then me and people that share the skin I'm placed in must be the barges ****
I guess we'll get nowhere wishing we have to make changes
and there's no simpler way to explain this
then get up and get out and make some progress
and maybe the world will be as perfect as a summer recess
