I
TOLD
YOU.

AND I AM
TELLING
YOU
AGAIN.

I AM GOING TO HOLD YOUR HEAD UP,
WHILE I HOLD YOUR HAND.
Shades31 May 2016
Last night, you saw me
And when I looked at you
You captured me, captivated
I felt refreshed, born anew

Your eyes held so much wonder
Much guilt and mystery
You seemed to have a bad past
But you're still beautiful to me

I am one of those guys
Who no girl gave attention
Maybe it was attitude,
Sarcasm or detention?

Maybe I was too smart
And they felt insecure
But you are smarter than I
And oh, so much more pure

There's just something about you
That makes me want to alter
I wish to ask you to be mine
But I always seem to falter

You put my nerves on edge
You make my hair stand high
Send shivers up and down my spine
For once I will not lie

I have fallen for a girl
So much more pure than I
And now I wish to begin again
It's hard, but I shall try
My poetry is not necessarily a full reflection of my life. However, there is some truth to it

What do I have to do to get you to notice me?
Change my hair, the way I walk.
My clothes, the way I talk.
We've known each other for some time now
yet I'm still invisible to you.
My feelings run deep and how
I wish you only knew.
I see your face every time I close my eyes
To me you just seem so different from the other guys.
To you I'm just a friend
Nothing more, nothing less
I settle for friendship in the end
Because I don't want to make a mess.
Instead I'll keep my secret to myself
And take my pride back off the shelf.
Until one day you finally see
That you and I were meant to be.
I'll wait for now but not too long
Because sooner or later I'll be gone.
So when will you notice me?

Never points out his own fault

Quick to expose yours

The thing about Humans
Is that they only
Ever notice
That which is bad
And that which is wrong
And attack you for
What negatives
You end up doing

But who cares
When you do good
And achieve.
Honestly.

Rushing ecstasy
Intensive flow
Rising high
Crashing low
Raging apathy
Falling apart
Chaotic outbreak
Back to the start

A clown with many gags
A fool with many faces
Your name in the mud, drags
As he travels many places

Who hides behind the mask
To cover all the scars
Of his long, drip-filling flask
With pain from here to Mars

Why redirect the flow
Of the water that possessed you
To hurt the lives, you know
Of the ones who, by you, stayed true?

When they were by your side
You took it all for granted
But you had to, them all lied
As an evil who, them, haunted
Who needs enemies with friends like these...
This probably is what happens to bullies. They've endured so much pain, they want to take it out on everyone else....on their friends...
Stop redirecting... Face your problems. Don't hide. Don't hurt those who cared for you
