"undercast" poems - Hello Poetry

Unwanted pressure and desire to please like a infectionous transmitted disease Ambitiously always seeking approval but yet always ends up on the bitterness removal ''Fitting in'' is their only goal always clouding their judgemental souls

It somewhat looks like a bull-dosed waterfall It’s a lot, but it’s neither great nor grand Or hardly worthy of a standing ovation Yet still, here we are Glancing favored smiles in its direction As if looking at a reflection I advise, care less for the standard Demand what is extraordinarily preposterous Stop this nonsense of looking for a chest with an S Or an answer that is yes Or to somehow beat this test and be better than the rest Of the leftover instuments placed here to stand and watch this empire crumble Oh how lovely to feel humble What am I to do? Sit here all day on my thumb? Hearts are growing numb Minds are decaying sick And money drives the ambulance to recovery, Or is headed straight for deterioration? Sky above, changing weather Look what’s been done in the name of something better Hot young seduction dressed in the stench of power and red Self preservation is what ticks time The timeline folds around seeing eyes, blinding All your knowledge means nothing from an undercast view Mankind thinks, but cannot know Some truth is sad, but still is so Create beauty tare it down Build the trust then leave town I want more; a selfish wish When the burn has reached the third degree My intent is lost with secrecy

Alchemical Growth is the Goal

It somewhat looks like a bull-dosed waterfall It’s a lot, but it’s neither great nor grand Or hardly worthy of a standing ovation Yet still, here we are Glancing favored smiles in its direction As if looking at a reflection I advise, care less for the standard Demand what is extraordinarily preposterous Stop this nonsense of looking for a chest with an S Or an answer that is yes Or to somehow beat this test and be better than the rest Of the leftover instuments placed here to stand and watch this empire crumble Oh how lovely to feel humble What am I to do?

Solar Apathy like a slow sunset my brain's in my head sometimes I forget Because these thoughts are comin' from my chest when I feel undercast it's Cardiac Arrest And I'm glaring at the sky in Lunar Protest 'dont' understand why but it's what I know best Ask me From midnight to noon why apathy's Got me like cycles of the moon And when I see your eyes it's my heart's sunrise and my brain can breathe and my heart knows why They way I miss you's how the sun knows the moon Is this solar apathy the way it has to be? Oh, the night's terrible beauty and each look in your eyes puts my heart in my head and my brain in the sky

Solar Apathy

Solar Apathy like a slow sunset my brain's in my head sometimes I forget Because these thoughts are comin' from my chest when I feel undercast it's Cardiac Arrest And I'm glaring at the sky in Lunar Protest 'dont' understand why but it's what I know best Ask me From midnight to noon why apathy's Got me like cycles of the moon And when I see your eyes it's my heart's sunrise and my brain can breathe and my heart knows why They way I miss you's how the sun knows the moon Is this solar apathy the way it has to be? Oh, the night's terrible beauty and each look in your eyes puts my heart in my head and my brain in the sky
