"opressed" poems
I am trying to blend, In a word filled with the opressed, Distressed, and self-obsessed. It leaves me a little depressed. Authenticity is hard to come by. Everyone is medicated. Facades often created. The fakery I have always hated. I don’t belong. All they see is skin. Doesn’t matter what’s within. Could care less where I’ve been. Show me something below the surface. Give me something more. Let your feelings out til’ your throat is sore. Be real, that’s all I ask for.

Sad world
This modern world is just too much for me Everywhere I look it's: Fight or flight; **** and flee Pure and honest talent dehumanized by Technology Black and white; Opressed and free True and genuine love faked and flaunted and Forgotten Kiss and tell; **** and flee This modern world is just too much for me

This Modern World
Long live the men battered and opressed Long live the King old, frail and dying. Hail to the Queen talked to by the keen Bless all the women whose knees both bent. By my Royal decree Of chaos and glee Let all ye be free From this broken dream.

The Obsequious Emperor
What's a moment without the thread? Every clock brakes and begins to slow So long since a tears been shed Hazy eyes don't look but low Seeing higher than the status quo Freely opressed like an opening window Lies are true and pride is gay Counting time from doe to doe Pricy fees I don't care to pay Menial lives of grass to hay Withering the vastest shade to grey Shaping paths into cracked Concrete My face plastered on your dismay Pulling me out to every heart beat Fates revealed from simple body heat Lying dead on a scorching sheet; Beginnings lost just as they were found Pictures taken as blind love meets Creatings reality out of invisible sound Judgement conceived with no one around Walking with chains nailed to the ground Fastened tightly to stop me from growing Drifting from pace enslaved as a hound Keeps me from where I need to be going Holding back all that i've been showing Planting emotions I shouldn't be sowing Igniting proposals of fragile connectivity Claim to be committed but I tend to do nothing Isolated inside of a crawling relativity With depleted self esteem disguised as complexity

Plastic Cogs
Love me like you do when Your tentacles attached around my neck Tried to strangle me but Got opressed by my femininity Handed me your detachable ***** Just to say, **** yourself" Sprayed your ink across my face How did you know about my fetish Stole my heart and now All three of them drenched in your blue blood Such irresponsibility Leaving me with a duty of single parenting I didn't want any of that So i starved to death after the eggs had hatched A takoyaki party Cooking with the family Everyone was happy.

Octopuses are cute 'til they twist your *******
Oh why are we opressed? By the propaganda machine in the news media. And the polticians who lie to us constantly. Why hasn't the American public realized that We need to stand up and become smart Once and for all And stop being sheep to the machine known as society.

A ramble in The park
My deepest thoughts consist of a world filled with equality walking down the street without a police man stopping me As time goes by the worlds mind continues to be amputated stripped of its freedom, something that has been tolerated For many years, people shedding so many tears the damage has been done and now we all fear What we can't see but we know it exists even tho this world is broken it can be fixed Take our pride and lift it high the opressors couldn't even wrap thier head around why we sit and cry fight back, think ahead and speak up keep composure but believe me i know your fed up live your life doing the things you want to do being happy sometimes it means just being you Real people do what they want, opressed people do what they can We are the people that make up this world so lets take a STAND!

Even though I got to take care of who made me They're growing old and its crazy But **** it Ya Im holding hands with the bartender Ya I texted my crush on tender Ya I sent a creepy fangirl essay to that singer But **** it Ya Im kinda depressed and Im creating such a mess But **** it Ya this system is making all of us opressed And Im a slave working day and night But still ******* my work up Im trying to pull it together but they think Im not even tryin' SO **** IT Ya Im screaming my lungs out at you saying **** this world And **** IT So **** IT Ya Im 22 and you think I'm being over dramaticly blue But **** it Ya my anxiety is kind of paralyzing me right now and I can't move But **** it Ya I seem weird cause I am weird So **** IT AND YA IM SCREAMING MY LUNGS OUT SAYING **** IT ya I might be damaging myself But I dont know any other way yo exist So **** ... it

Haiku #182
The high notes in your voice, as you cry during goodbyes Those shrieks, so muffled, like prayers of the opressed Your grip loses its tone with age But sometimes you mustn't let go

Separation
My heart feels heavy, My head is cloudy, My thoughts depressing. I don’t walk anymore...I wonder the city lights Not knowing where they lead me. I don’t look at things anymore... I try ti simplify what I see So that my depressed mine doesn’t get filled with subjective thoughts. My eyes are tired, My mouth is shut, My feelings are opressed. I don’t live anymore...I simply exist Because my taunted being Is so sunk in this inert world of mine That the joy of the little things (The joy of being alive) Is just a sad memory Of the life I used to have.
