The world here and there
Crowded crowded crowded…
Accidentally if we see
Still we may be separated
Accidentally if you’re aware
Will you find a way to me?
Batool Feb 2016
the words
creating havoc
echoing in the vast emptiness
of soul as they strike
against the high walls
built to keep them
within,
Turning deaf ear
to the inner chaos
she wore a smile
and
became the part of **crowd
Be yourself,don't imitate
Find out who you are;meditate

Its easier to be someone you're
  not in order to fit in,but there is
     No fulfillment in that,life isn't
         About impressing the
             Crowd.  
           At the end of it all,crowds
       Will always be there to
    applaud both your uprise and downfall,
       So what's there to really live
         For in the crowd?
           Do what fulfills you as a person,you won't live here twice.
   Do what makes you happy,
      You deserve that.
"Insist on yourself,never imitate" - Ralph Waldo Emerson

It's easy to follow
a crowd,
much harder
to follow your
heart.

It's easy
to put a mask on
and be the one that you're not.
Way harder is
to show face,
while being something against.  

Fireworks
lit up bonfire night,
but morning
sees them burnt out.

Loneliness is like a shadow. It is always chasing us until we are weak enough to sink in it. Some people get covered by it while they are alone, while nobody can reach them. But others, the most desperate ones, dissolve in it even when accompanied. In a matter of seconds a lonely can become darkness and blend in the multitude. This feeling of belonging to somewhere else is a constant in the hearts of the unfortunate. How many shadows can you find in a crowded room? *Are you sure you are not one?
Sometimes I feel like answering "no" to the last question.

Worn converses scuff the floor.
     The crowd sings, and they roar
     his name. Things aren't the same
     like anonymous Mondays before.

He pulls out his strings. Silence.
Steel vibrates and sings; Violence
erupts and again he hears his name.
It isn't the same... but he finds it
strangely fitting; On this stage
he's the benefactor and the tyrant.
He's the laughter, killing quiet.
It's not your average Monday
but no surprise, he finds he likes it.
Peeka Sep 2015
Laugh out loud
Don't care if it's too loud
Wave to the crowd
Skipping on the streets
A train of dust,
Stopping to stare at the sea
And so it goes each day
Can't be, won't be the same.
Smile at the birds watching
The bunny running away
You were tip-toeing too loud
Because life's a play, take a bow.
Eleanor Rigby Sep 2015
I totally adore
How you blend in the crowd
But when we're alone
You become you.

my hurt has a sinister ire
fire burning what had been sane
ashes and dust make a sapphire
I still feel the same again
****** my every desire
so I can only know the pain
more corpses on streets to hire
I am just one of the strange

i had something but no words to speak
all I could see was who left and came
in all of those lies I once let breed
i somewhere forgot my own name


i have died years ago but I am still awake
my heart is lost but I still hear my soul
I wouldn't know the monsters I have made
but I know the secrets I never told
by a lonely corner where I would wait
breathing more despair and cold
you wouldn't know how many scars it takes
to not remember who you are anymore
