You want me to say what you wanna hear,
my words,
you cannot bear..

You want me to act like you expect,
when you actually show no signs of respect..

You want us to talk all day long,
whats the point?
to you,all of my words seem to be wrong..

This is not me,
I'm exactly what you don't wanna see,
set me free,
you don't need me..

Buy yourself a mirror!
accept me as i am or reject me right away!

I can write a poem?
I can write a poem
About anything in the world
Any dream ever held


Have you ever heard of Xanadu?
A place of blissful peace
Have you ever heard of Tokyo?
With your'e head stuck up your own ***

Sorry to be profane
But I can write a poem
In the method of the ancient romans
About ****** fellating in ******

But seriously
What the ****
I can write a poem
But will anybody read

I really don't give a ****
About sunshine or hearts
Just read the words i write
Because I know you'll feel what I say

And after an hour
Zero reads
Maybe you don't want to feel
Maybe I say too much
Appreciate what is great. Or be without it. I hate I have to write a poem about it but it just really irritates me. I'm drunk
My mind wanders off;
She's cloaked in infinity.
Then she says, "hello."
I write haikus
Just like you.

as the raindrops fall
upon my window
and i think of you
my vision becomes blurred
haven't been on for a while due to my studies. i hope to be on more frequently.

sadness is more
than just a tear
you wipe away

How to pass your poetry test
with the silence between your teeth
and a red angered face
burnt like the Sun and
cold as the night
a small song leaves your lips
in spite of yourself.

I lost a friend and I lost a tooth,
The tooth had to go; the friend I couldn't lose
It was a wisdom tooth, with some decay,
It was a wise friendship, its strings began to fray,
The tooth couldn't be salvaged; the friendship stood a chance,
I chose to cut loose the tooth; cutting the friendship wasn't my stance
Like my tongue wiggles, at the place the tooth would be,
So mind tumbles, at all things my friend used to be
