Even though, we're hated
We must rise, together we must
Come on and rise with me
Life is a journey, a race some say
We've been abused,
We've been robbed, but through it all
Let's stand together.

I don't like it, racism, I don't
White against Black
Dark against Light, skin this is
I've been wronged, even when right
But still I'll rise up;
Come on my brothers and sisters
We got to rise together
Let's stand together.

Wow, to protect and serve, they say
But instead, they merge
Forces with the wild
And **** nation-wide
Even for this,
We'll rise up.

Our past isn't our future,
We've been beaten, what a disgrace
I need mercy, some justice
And peace, may I please?
I beg please, even if
It's not granted;
We'll rise up,
Let's stand together.
This was inspired by a movie, The Quad, and the music, Rise Up Together, which was highly interesting to me. It intrigued me a lot.

I scorched myself to match your fire,
I chased death to match your desire.
Even though the wounds were deep,
The love for you was anything one can keep.
So never mind the scars I own,
Cause my heart is not of stone.
Melts for you, fuses the pieces together
It is something of a love, that lasts forever...
English is not my first language so suggest me if there are some errors.

I do opine that a constant life, although agreeable in its construction and longevity, may render its subject without two sympathetic words to rub together.

You drive me insane but no one can make me smile like you do
With all of my craziness, you still stick by my side boo
I know I have mood swings and it gets on your nerves
But even so, you throw it all to the curves
You healed me when I was hurting and I found you when you were lost
Together in unity, we will take on this world like a boss
Do I even need to describe this feeling?! :}

you
remind me of the
blues.
each different shade
of blue
equals you.
each of your tones
resonates truth.
that is true
and oh so true
the way I feel for you.
tranquil like blue,
a lake of blue.
the way I always feel
around you
almost like a
sky blue.
a blue
that is just
enough blue
to make you
move groovy
like the Blues.
you
make me
feel blue
without being
blue,
like a navy blue.
a blue that has blue
on top of its’ blue.
a blue times blue times blue,
that’s you
and it’s crazy
because
i only feel things
because of you.
together
me and you,
a perfect image
of solitude.
and you are
solid
too.
real is you.
no camouflage
or ruse.
just you.
like you are
one of the deepest blues.
you make me feel deep
like some negative
2’s.
I’d happily dive into you
like an ocean blue.
constantly evolving into
different blues
that’s you
(always you).
you are my Blue
and blue is you.
this goes out to my best friend, my boo. thank you for being you.
writing this poem was honestly really fun to me because this isn’t my normal style and adventuring out like this was kinda an addictive feeling.

I dreamt about you,
A future where there’s us
Happy together
