"weightlifting" poems - Hello Poetry

I died drowning Drowning like the rest of America Trying to breathe under the numbers All of them telling us that we're failures I died drowning It was more so a ****** than an unfortunate event I blame society Piling papers and statistics on teens and the to be's We're shoved into school at the age of 3 For that I blame you I blame you for my death The air was extracted from my lungs All 78% of nitrogen and 21% of oxygen Geometry fried my brain at exactly 112 degrees Physics pushed me off a cliff and I accelerate by 9.81 m/s World History murdered me with every war and battle English killed me just like every author Band beat me to death like a drum Weightlifting dropped 225 lbs on my throat The play acted out all of my deaths I didn't die just drowning I was beaten, burned, shot, choked, mocked and everything in between. I was murdered and I am still living I am here to convict the killers They say it takes a village to raise a kid But what does it take to **** one?

Like The Rest of America

I died drowning Drowning like the rest of America Trying to breathe under the numbers All of them telling us that we're failures I died drowning It was more so a ****** than an unfortunate event I blame society Piling papers and statistics on teens and the to be's We're shoved into school at the age of 3 For that I blame you I blame you for my death The air was extracted from my lungs All 78% of nitrogen and 21% of oxygen Geometry fried my brain at exactly 112 degrees Physics pushed me off a cliff and I accelerate by 9.81 m/s World History murdered me with every war and battle English killed me just like every author Band beat me to death like a drum Weightlifting dropped 225 lbs on my throat The play acted out all of my deaths I didn't die just drowning I was beaten, burned, shot, choked, mocked and everything in between. I was murdered and I am still living I am here to convict the killers They say it takes a village to raise a kid But what does it take to **** one?

Hey little brother Our love for one another Wasn’t born of blood But built up From the birth of Your very first breath Seen in polaroids Of your precarious venture Into this life It was formed in time Spent playing And babysitting In letting you win At video games Until the day I could not beat you It was in weightlifting And *** smoking Till you grew up Without me knowing Changed and changed some more Angry and hurt To religious and forgiving So this a remembrance Dear little brother Who is a little bigger Than me Verses to remind you That when you say I love you I will always love you to

We were star-crossed lovers With stars completely faded Upon the pellucid canvas From hearts barricaded. We were crossed lovers Anger emanated from our soul Clouded coils created catastrophe preventing us to be complete wholes. We were lovers Pain and misplaced anger dissipated by trust and words exchanged Accomodating the memories created. We loved. Loved like a love created above the skies Stronger than any weightlifting olympiad We shared a loving bond unbreakable by lies. We love, The way a bee loves collecting honey With love coursing through our veins We love, like the sun loves being called sunny.

Love

We were star-crossed lovers With stars completely faded Upon the pellucid canvas From hearts barricaded. We were crossed lovers Anger emanated from our soul Clouded coils created catastrophe preventing us to be complete wholes. We were lovers Pain and misplaced anger dissipated by trust and words exchanged Accomodating the memories created. We loved. Loved like a love created above the skies Stronger than any weightlifting olympiad We shared a loving bond unbreakable by lies. We love, The way a bee loves collecting honey With love coursing through our veins We love, like the sun loves being called sunny.

Not a villain from a comic book He was a man who had a certain look A weightlifting man with power and strength Determination in always going the depth But yet it goes beyond all that Flex was the man that had his own platform track It wasn’t music being the crack He was a Bodybuilder that competitors saw amaze However, the audience gave Flex praise His smooth and break dancing kicking splits was the spectacular phrase Yet not perplexed Flex got the name in how he would flex His muscles would respond with every moving command Flex was known throughout the land Where Flex goes always followed his body Achievement established in every way But this was day by day Victories with a loud applause No there wasn’t any clause Flex with the name being just right When on stage, Flex is simply out of sight.

A MAN NAMED FLEX

Not a villain from a comic book He was a man who had a certain look A weightlifting man with power and strength Determination in always going the depth But yet it goes beyond all that Flex was the man that had his own platform track It wasn’t music being the crack He was a Bodybuilder that competitors saw amaze However, the audience gave Flex praise His smooth and break dancing kicking splits was the spectacular phrase Yet not perplexed Flex got the name in how he would flex His muscles would respond with every moving command Flex was known throughout the land Where Flex goes always followed his body Achievement established in every way But this was day by day Victories with a loud applause No there wasn’t any clause Flex with the name being just right When on stage, Flex is simply out of sight.

A man named GORILLA STRONG His last name Strong describes him perfectly Strength in his own right Strong and Might Gorilla Strong started on his journey as a Weightlifter He would lift weights beyond expectations In fact, when he lifts weights at the gym where he trains appropriately called “INTENSITY BEYOND” Every weight he lifts sounding like an Earthquake around him with shakes and vibrations It surrounds Mr. Strong’s training formation His body parts seem to muscle flex without Mr. Strong doing a flex Mr. Strong has received numerous Weightlifting awards and top honors in sportsmanship You are probably scratching your head in wondering who is this Gorilla Strong is a person who I made up in my head However, it would be surprising if Gorilla Strong really existed So where did the first name of Gorilla originate? It wasn’t from the ridges of Africa nor a descendant from King Kong It describes Mr. Strong’s strength capabilities and Gorilla built structure But there is another side of Gorilla Strong He became a competitive Bodybuilder How does one go from Weightlifting to Bodybuilding? Easy answer, Train, Eat, Preparation and Transformation Mr. Strong competed in Bodybuilding Contest in winning the Mr. Sensational Title Because Mr. Gorilla Strong is unique and was wonder and instilled competitive No imagination or dream, but fierce competition in what bodybuilding could become The stage was set and when Gorilla Strong stepped on the Posing Dais or some would call the podium along with the other competitors, there was no comparison as to who would win the bodybuilding show Mr. Strong was vascular, constructed, muscle pumps and showed promise and plenty of detail It was because of his Weightlifting days that paved the way for Bodybuilding Even when Mr. Gorilla Strong shook one’s hand, it was like shaking hands with a vice He was just that strong After all, one’s last name of strong is nothing to ignore Think on crush and ouch Some might think that Mr. Gorilla Strong might be too strong Just saying, what if Mr. Strong was arrested, and was put into handcuffs, do think they would hold being his strength? It might be considered a strongman act Gorilla Strong being a man of excellence Essence at its best Powerful with might Mr. Sensational Global name Gorilla Strong
