Oppression

Witholds definition



Keep us

Down under the radar



Making a fuss

To keep us where we are



No advance

In our ideas and thoughts



Not a chance

Of a war being fought



But what the hell?

Why not take them on?



Can't they tell?

The idea has dawned?



UPRISING.



UPRISING.



UPRISING.



It's coming soon.
Please do not ask me if this is based off the Hunger Games. Please.

I wear my heart on my fingertips
and that's why all my realtionships
last five seconds or so
in the length of a handshake
I fall in love, my heart breaks    
and then I let her go
but I begin to regret it
and then try to forget it
but the mind cannot erase
what the heart does know
the mind can only restrict the feelings
so that they may never grow
so here I am with heart of gold
a heart full of half loves
that my heart witholds
because, deep down, I'm scared...
scared to love completely
for fear that it won't be returned
scared to fall too deeply
for fear of getting burned
Am I a romantic? ...yes
hopeless? ...maybe
but I try to stay hopeful
that the girl I reach out to
will also reach out to me

I am a star for i shine bright and all planets and moons encircle me,

but i will never have  anything close as like the Earth beholds the Moon.

For my love and wrath burns the same.

The dread star dreams solitcitously to see if serene calm ever witholds him.
Greetings If you too are a star that longs for a moon.

Life begins,
Anew,
Folded,
Repose witholds,
What darkness,
May lie within,
Stuck,
In the ins and outs,
Without a doubt,
Trends to be followed,
Jobs to be gained,
If only to begin again,
Different choices,
Same routes,
Surviving without,
Another clout,
Choices made,
Without a thought,
Without a care to be wrought,
The wrath of life,
Has been unleashed,
Coifed in sorrow,
And dismay,
To only sputter out,
At the end,
Of our days
Tell me what you thought of it. Leave a comment or something.

(I)

Though man with plenty whom proclaim your love
Is love of his, be wary may become,
Of heart; in lesser love and shade of dove;
Compare your potency; mere scratch the sum:
Of radiance, from skill born out the womb;
No quarter moon reflects that mirror just,
Nor sun that wakes in only season's bloom;
In lovelier of loves, year round's a must!
Deservingly, let love let you be you;
And shade your sweet abundance bathed a-bright
Like winds of summer onto beauty blew:
To compliment is love, more than of sight.

Yet if with one whom loves yours less than whole
Then from your love you give, from you have stole.

(II)

Then may you ask where find this love I write;
This poet dreams and dreams so through his make
That ink does spray tho' well, is mere a sight:
The love he raves is poet's stead and sake.
It's not of my deception you're deceived;
Your love has met with foe whom sways belief
In faith, devolved where faith is ill recieved;
Illiterate to love of ink's relief.
Yet still I pen for eyes in deep your realm
Well versed in alpha letters of the heart,
Let I revive this truth imprint that helm:
How beauty dwells within all-loving art!

And you possess love's many forms we hold
So dear and so majestic to behold!

(III)

Not from sweet fantasy becomes my words:
They flow from love, they flow in love to page;
By palpitating beat each two of thirds,
The third I do divulge my lover's stage:
How unaware this rose, of ardent truth
That becons my lips but witholds my tongue,
Renounces age and blooms a brighter youth
That's flutters on my face a bird unsung.
At night returns into my budding chest
And pass the moments by, like wind and time,
No! Poetry in three unveils my zest!
And couplet spill my secret love in rhyme:

My chasm where breath of love does form and brew
Is muse of mine and all of mine! It's you.
