I don't know my place,
Where do I belong?
Just where is my space?
What takes it so long?

I feel like a piece not meant to be used,
A piece of a puzzle just so **** confused,
A piece of a puzzle that could never fit,
Or just like a fire that's never been lit,

I'm like a shard from different collection,
I'm just a someone who longs for connection,
What will it take to find my puzzle set?
What are the conditions that had not been met?

I wish there was someone to show me the way,
When will they show? I'm thinking all day,
Am I just a piece that one could just spare?
Why do they avoid me, do you think it's fair?

So am I unworthy of getting to know?
Is it just something that you cannot show?
Is it so much to ask to be known?
Just what do I need to not be alone?

I wish you'd just ask, if I want to go too,
Is that a hard task? Is that really true?
Sadly I think not, I think you're just blind,
You just don't want me to be what you find.
Why can't I fit in?
I pray, please do tell,
How can I fit in?
How to break this spell?
The dark and the light,
In a restless fight,
Peace not declared,
And I remain scared,

I find my own feelings, there's darkness to bear,
My only hope is, I won't face despair,
I look down upon my two ****** hands,
hoping for a fraction of peace that still stands,

Somewhere out here, In this broken land,
Everything covered by bright red hot sand,
Perhaps there is saving, In this world so dark,
Perhaps there's passion that just needs a spark,


There may be a thing that I must make known,
Before the whole world is frozen in stone.
There is no need for a single fight.
For if you're at peace you bring a new light.
Something we all know,
What most of us fear,
It may bring us sorrow,
And it might be near,

Thought one may not be aware,
When death decides to strike,
One may never prepare,
to lose someone they like,

Once that thing turns true,
You'll only face grief,
Your world will turn blue,
There'll be no relief,

You may come to terms,
Maybe in due time,
Get rid of concerns,
Your world will turn lime,

You'll live the same life,
Without your dear friend,
Avoiding the knife,
Till you meet the end.
Why do I write, why do I talk,
About these things written with chalk,
I write them here, write them on the board,
I want to set free what has been stored,

I just wish to make them heard,
I wish that for my every word,
Is that just too much to ask?
Could you fullfill that simple task?

I want my thoughts just to be read,
To be read before I'm dead,
I want to express what I think,
Long before this ship will sink,

Oh I wonder, You right here,
What my poems made you feel.
Yes, dear reader, you right here,
Say your thoughts—no need to fear.
Wrath

No matter what I do or say,
I’m never enough, always a step away.
I try to keep up, wear myself thin,
But all I feel is the burn within.
If I could change, I swear I would,
But trying and failing still hurts, as it should.


Pride

In the mirror, I see a man undone,
Not proud, but broken, the lesser one.
No arrogance here, no smug facade,
Only a soul bruised, and left flawed.
Superior? No, I shrink from the view,
Hating myself far more than I do you.


Lust

Lust is a sneaky, seductive beast,
I’ve given in, but found no feast.
Those urges led to hollow roads,
But I broke free, shed those heavy loads.
Desire comes, but I’ve learned to be,
Unshackled, with a heart finally free.


Greed

I once held tight, refusing to share,
The world was mine, I didn’t care.
But time changed me, and now I see,
Greed’s lost its hold, no longer on me.
My hand is now open, I’ve learned to give,
Unburdened, I can finally live.


Envy

I used to ache for someone's life,
Trapped in longing, never satisfied.
Why not me? I’d wonder and weep,
Until something shifted, I could sleep.
Now I’m a man content with less,
Grateful in ways I never confess.


Gluttony

Food may not be my chosen vice,
I’ve drowned in pleasures, paid the price.
It is but the need to fill,
The endless void that lingers still.
This hunger for escape, it eats away,
But I know its tricks, it's clear as day.


Sloth

I set my goals, yet never reach,
Room to grow, but I don’t breach.
I drift through days, no purpose found,
A ghost in waiting, with silent sound.
What is my worth, what should I be?
I ache for meaning, to finally see.
love is like the sun

It can be warm, it can be bright
Just like the sun that brings you light
Just like a sunrise with beautiful skies
I fell in love upon seeing your eyes

Every single time I see you pass by
I may just wonder if you're not a lie
Your smile gives me hope, it shows me the way
And just like the sun, it brightens my day

Although there's one thing that I do fear
That just like the sunlight, you might disappear
Once the sun disappears, the moon will be here
But light and warmth may no more be near

If there is no warmth, if there is no light
One may give in, no reason to fight
Some things may change, but one thing I know
Whenever you're near and my head is low
Whenever I see you shining like the snow

My head flies high, my smile turns bright
You're all I need to stay here and fight

You are my life, you are my soul
Without you, I cannot be whole

Just like I said, there's one thing I fear
It is the thought you might disappear

If that may come true, there's one thing I'll do
Wherever you'll be, I'll be there with you
I found a love, but it's gone now
Something went wrong, I don't know how
Was it your doing or was it mine
You just moved on, you just drew a line
I still keep thinking, was it a mistake
Why did you do it, was it for my sake?
Trust is a must, it is essential,
If you can't trust, there is no potential,
Can't build a strong bond, Can't call you a friend,
If there is no trust, you might meet the end,

Without trust, there is no friendship,
It's what you need to get through hardship,
I know I had trust, I'm truly aware,
But my trust's been broken, now darkness to bear,

Just like glass it is quite frail,
Fixing it might become a fail,
Though one thing is certain, that once trust breaks,
You can't earn it back no matter the stakes,

Trust is just a leap of faith,
Within the dark we see a cave,
The path's uncertain, we are blind,
Till there is light that we can find.
It is a step one for building a connection,
If there is none, you won't have protection,
You will never head in the right direction,
If you won't head there you won't find affection
