We say we ok when we not because that's the acceptable thing to say
We say goodbye when we want to beg you to stay or want to talk some more but have nothing to say
Gone are the days of honesty frankness and truth
These are the days of walls and heavily guarding our pride and ego...heart?
We feel and feel
But only recite lines,lines off this script of proper etiquette
After all we wouldn't want to unsettle the audience
So say your fine
Force a smile
And while you're at post a nice post on insta  just to #showthem
We feel and feel
But there is no expression
Only making an impression
For to impress
You must supress

They said to me to follow your heart, but what if my heart already break into pieces? then which pieces should I follow?
Shelley Yater Sep 2017
Today is my birthday
It is neither here nor there
September third
And I don't care..
There were ages I thought
I'm doomed for sure
My ego lost wages against-
Anything inside of me pure.

In my life constant improving
IS
My one single goal.
With that
LOOK OUT
candles
Because here I blow!
Feeling really numb to my birthday. Not thrilled or unhappy.
Just ok
Posting this not as a poem-
But came out of head no reason

This is a shadow
full of colors
forty in total
That is trying to
bring this light , into an end
But this heart always dream of you
You're the night, and the day
The moonshine and the last dream
the last poem
The perfect girl...
But I ended it all...
When I become greedy.

i have a hole  
in the depths of my soul
its making me whole.
Ryan Seth Cole Mar 2017
In a broad kindred of spirits collide,
Too each is each to own and then we reply.

For where art thou darker days? Tucked behind us, spread like paste. Beneath a new chapter is where it lays.

A folding eyelid above beholds.
Temperatures swell, tempation creeps, weather is cold.

Are we not our own or do we just do as we are told? Again into the fold, clouds gather ahead, I clinch tight to my soul.

It's just that Im really not a good person. But I keep following this glow. Into the dark again I go.

A strange connection between what you consider real or make belief.
A thin rope dangles above from the fall that balanced and centered me.

For all that I appreciate and sense to be. For life finally making sense to me. Im circled by Death, teaching me something I have yet to be.

Echo knows eternity. A perfect gift from me to you from the lights of which you were meant to be. You are to your ability, able to be. Deep within your reach is where your meant to be...
Learning how walk on my own two feet.

Please,
remember that the following things are okay,
specially
when you are not:

It is ok to spend the day
on your own

And it is okay
to cry your eyes out,
even if you don't understand
why all the tears come
from such little things

It is perfectly fine to
clear your mind and
forget the rest of the world

Because, sometimes,
the rest of the world
forgets you too

Although
it's sad to think that
he is also a part
of that world
