Damaré M
If I was blind I could still see you.
If I had no mind, my thoughts will still think of you.
Without legs I will be chasing you all over town until my arms become dead.
No lips but I will still yearn for your kiss.
Picture me without a face, yet grinning everytime you open your arms for my embrace.
What if I had no hands? I will still hold onto my every plan, to be your perfect man.
One day I will be without a heart; however, loving you like I did from the start.
I'm extremely convoluted
Complex and misconstrued
There's a feeling that I don't belong
Compounded with ineptitude

I'm not quite sure where it began
Or when things first felt wrong
But there is one thing that's been consistent
I've never once felt that I belonged

From grade school to adulthood
Until this very day
I've been misunderstood completely
In almost every single way

I know I'm not alone in this
We've all at one time felt the same
Some days I gaze up to the sky
Wondering, who is there to blame?

I sit and stare into the mirror
I try to see what others see
I wonder who is this stranger
That's staring back at me

The questions are abundant
The answers, there are few
I presumed I'd one day nullify my doubts
But it only made me more confused

I've always been the one that's lagging
Trying to catch up
Afraid to raise my hand in class
For fear I'd interrupt

So instead I went unknowing
As the rest progressed as was the "norm"
While I stood in the rain with no umbrella
Weathering out the storm

I became content with my exclusion
Believed I was meant for greater things
I found solace in my delusions
That I'd soon one day be king

My imagination grew much more rampant
When reality began to shine it's light
So I conjured up a gambit
I so painstakingly contrived

I'd cut corners if I deemed it necessary
To make up for the lost time
But my plans, alas, made me feel wary
And success, was never quite derived

But I learned that ones own failure
Only happens when we stop to try
It takes tweaking and deciphering
Before we've finally arrived

And with that, I can draw comfort
While on this earth and I'm alive
I'll spin my dreams into my reality
And begin passing others by
Never, ever give up. Ever. That very last push, may be the one that gets you over the hill. Then, just let the momentum carry you.
take me somewhere
somewhere out there
kiss me under the rain
so i will forget all the pain

With my feet above the graves
I can see the ghosts of good laughs
And the souls of endless tears
The hearts that beated for each other's arms
But it's the sound of recklessness that swallows me,
Every other passerby looking to be free
To linger in the shadows of evils retreats
I heard them from far calling across the sea
I saw all the faces of hopeful need
Lost in the rubble are all of their screams
I can hear them calling out to me
Because what you can hear is what you can't see.

تا نباشی قطره . دریا چون شوی
تا نه ای گم گشته . پیدا چون شوی






If you refuse to be a drop
You can't become a deep sea
And if you aren't lost
You won't be found
Love is nothing but
a nicely penned palindrome poem
that needs not to be plagiarized
as it will loose its allure
