Who am I?
Well, who are you?
Standing there
Telling me what to do

Forgive my stare
Its just that I can tell
What you're here to sell
Is not the truth

Who I am
Who I am to you
And the difference between the two

One is real,
But the other is easier to chew
Who are you?
I will gnaw my feet off to escape you
I will fight tooth and claw
to stop the cruelty you do

Pacifism becomes violent after a while
something must be done now
this country is absolutely vile

If your foot is on my neck I will cut down your legs
you can silence me no longer
My patience has been drunk to the dregs

taking back our land, our rights, the name of our game
Isn´t it the consequences of your actions??
What a **** shame
Bowedbranches Aug 29
Sometimes I don't wanna share
The same space with ya
Here we go again
With my chaos
With my cold affection
With my what you call
All the time
"This fake love"
It's classic
Always happens
Right?
Is supposed to happen..
To everyone
Did I ever even feel a connection
Did you?
Constant
Chameleon
To your changing tune
Switch up the trope
Wonder if you even knew me
'cause I been roughing it
And showing you my tummy
When I'm belly up
Come wanna show you underneath
But you would c
Keep it safe for me
Classic uncomfortability
Wanna unsee certain sides of you
I'm expected to accept
Sometimes I don't wanna
Talk it out
Because I forgot how to
And where to start
  I've been told every connection
Has it hardships
Is this separation average
Or am I emitting negativity
Causing our love to die?
Screaming through out the room
Everyone stands
Punches land with a boom
****** noses and hands
No one moves to help
They film the carnage
blood flows from one girls scalp
Screaming like a dying baby partridge
No one cares these days
I have carried battles in my chest,
Armor made of weary breath,
Every dawn a call to stand,
Every night a clenched-up hand.

Scars have been my only crown,
Victory weighed my spirit down,
Even triumph tastes of ash,
A fleeting spark, a fading flash.

Now I dream of gentler skies,
Of quiet streams where silence lies,
No more wars to prove my name
Only peace to quench the flame.
Even a warrior becomes weary of battle. Peace is sought and nothing more.
Mariah Jul 7
Pretend I'm taller
Grabbing god by the collar
Odds never matter
I'll find a way.
Mariah Jul 7
The cruelest of all
To suffer despite resolve
Fighting while you fall
I refuse to die before it gets better and that's a threat.
