You're draining us

We're spent

This is the last time I swear it

Your siblings don't ask us for help

My siblings don't pay rent.

No matter how hard you work

And what bills you pay

Millennials were born behind the glory day.
I know I'm not the only one working two jobs and struggling to keep my head afloat. The only thing I can do is laugh at this point.

Always smile.
Especially when you don't feel like it
because
that's
when you need it
the most.

i didn't know upon meeting you that you would make my heart skip beats;
i wish you didn't.
i can't write poetry anymore because i don't know how to feel anymore.

I could be a celestial body
Outside the galaxy
And here on earth
I’ll be the sun in a day, Stars at night

Make me your guide
Whenever you’re sad
And for you I’ll shine bright

Look up my friend and
Feel everything how
The cold air touch you
Skin to skin, just know that
Always will be here for you
Even though Forever can’t do

Giving in to making small talk chatter.
Collateral atoms scatter over my head
Perfect pitter pattered patterns.

Behind my eyes grey matter
That feels in tatters
After it burned out the rafters.

Is my skull getting fatter?
Madder than your favorite hatter.
And I won't get an ever after.

Never been a dodge drafter
I meant a draft dodger. (cue the laughter)

Who makes taffy taffer?
And who made Daffy dafter?
Bugs and carrots for my Satur-
Day morning napper.

Paint splattered pancake batter.
Knife and fork clatter.
Belly never felt so dapper.

If I had to choose I choose Venonat, er
I meant you Pikachu! (What a Knee slapper!)

Always been a little scrapper
Even when I was bigger batter.

And I don't know no pastor
But I got the spirit moving faster.

Probably should've been a future rapper
But I could never be a present wrapper
And I'm more wrapped up in the past four
Years that were snatched by time snatchers.

But now I'm bored by this rhyme planner
So I'm gonna go get a snack or
Two.
Being yourself,is who you are,
You are the person you are now,
Not being yourself but always yourself,
I look inside me like if being told who you are.

The Me,Myself and I is you but yourself,
When you destroyed the soul of yourself,
It is no longer you anymore,
If you praise for help for yourself,
Then you will be yourself to whoever.

Who is yourself?
Yourself is my,myself and I,
Let yourself be there for you.

Feeling lost
Heart is heavy
For you are free
Tears hold no levy

You struggle no more
Pain is lifted
Peace be with you
The spirits have gifted

Angels embrace
Their light will hold
You are a child
For them to hold

Friendship to cherish
A memory held dear
Love to be missed
To my heart you will be near

Always

You visited me inside my door
A love for whom I do adore
your sight it took my breath away
though I know you could not stay
perhaps you'll come another day

we danced around my living room
the love we had was in full bloom
you took my hand we spun around
Entranced in silent lovers sound
My feet have not
yet touched the ground

Your smile lit the darkened place
the beauty of your lovely face
a memory I cannot replace
a million times my hands retrace
and wish again

.....your sweet embrace.
