Opressing poems on Hello Poetry

Jessica Oct 2017

One time in my life I can't even tell me what I'm feeling.  HAHAHA thought you had the world, stupid girl, don't be absurd.  Why would you trust people to keep to their word?
Actions speak by far way louder than words or no words for that fact.  Can't drop that crazy thing inside that makes me want to say "Wow, I knew it was all an act."  Yep seen this way back.
Be true to you, don't make each other blue.  Step up to make my cue, so we don't have to Fake it to make it, but, grab it like a goat "by the horns" and take it like you the one that made it.  Now it's time to appreciate it.
Mystery, contradictions and Imagination have me always guessing what you could be opressing. All the **** you be stressing, you sure have me taught me a life lesson

**** COLD

Another perfect
summer day
and I caught you again
I don't apologize
I didn't want you
but here we are
You trying to keep me down
like "The Man"
opressing humanity
Nose running like
an open tap
You have on my second
box of Kleenex Cool Touch
I love that stuff
Eyes watering after relentless
sneezing to go with
the nagging cough
I feed you
because the
old wives tale
tells me to
You've drained all
my energy
I'd reference Sampson here
but I'm a bald dude and
it doesn't seem fitting
All-in-all I really dislike you
as you attempt to rob me
of a few days
So I rest and regain
my tactical advantage
with lots of O.J.
and Chicken soup.
In the end I will win
the war, but you
have this battle.

Oh man... I hate colds this time of year, but one always seems to catch up with me.
