lm tired of looking in the mirror and failing to recognise myself
lm tired of having a voice but l cant speak
lm tired of speaking only for me to listen
lm tired of dreaming , waking up to see a different reality
lm tired of looking exactly like the person next to me

At times l ask myself if friendship was the only thing l had to offer
how big will my circle
how many people will still be will to roll with me

Not everyone who is rolling with you is rolling for you
some are rolling against you
if you fall today how many people in your circle will still be willing to as much as you do for them

Now l ask again do l really have to be like
you so that you be for me
l thought being different was the beauty of life
My colour together with yours combined to make a beautiful rainbow
but no we all have to sing the sane song
lm tired of dancing to the same rhythm
l need a different melody

So society lm sorry
But lm setting myself free
society has taught us how to live that we have lost ourselves on the way. you don't have to be anything but yourself

You broke my heart
But with every breathe each piece seem to be patching it way back to you
The heart wants what it wants
Poetic Eagle Nov 2020
its the poetry in me  that still loves you
my heart already let go
why do you end up being the person behind poem
Poetic Eagle Jun 2018
You are the definition of BEAUTY
Don't feel inferior
Be your own kind of beautiful whether u melanin or not
My only regret is
I sold you a lie
And you were too quick
to make it our truth
It was never meant to be that deep
Poetic Eagle Nov 2018
The ones who can make us smile
Usually cause us the worst pains
And
The ones who can heal us
Are the ones far from reach
. Maybe it only happens to me. Correct me of im wrong  . Its funny how life can play such tricks
Poetic Eagle Dec 2017
Until next time, 
Now all will close,
The day has expired,
I sink in my woes.

Your arms were my castle,
Your words were my battle,
But in twinkle of an eye ,
You said goodbye.

I now yearn for your warmth,
It helps me progress,
In this life that drags on,
In this life that's a mess.

Now its a million degrees below zero in my blood,
Its like I'm buried fifty feet underground,
You left me isolated and deserted
Now lm feeling rejected.

Until I, see your face again,
That hole inside will never fill,
a restless souls that cannot cease,
a mission that i must fulfill.

Although with a hallowed place inside my heart,
l say back off loneliness and hello tenderness,
Opening my feeling and feeling smart,
Only to be struck back down into brokeness
Its hard to let go of the past, maybe l need help

Life is a crazy roller coaster
Full of ups and downs

You laugh and the world
laughs with you
Weep and you weep alone

Life is real
Life is Ernest
Without its ups and downs
It wouldn't be so much fun
Just thought about life and decided to write
Poetic Eagle Dec 2016
Not once did l expect this to happen
Never in my wildest imagination did l think you would leave
Your sweetness melted in my heart
But it was all a lie

The promises and the oaths
We would never say goodbye
We would be together forever
But it was all a lie

Being that shoulder to lean on
A friend to depend on
The arms to cry on
The strength in my hopelessness
My eyes in my blindness
And the guider in my helplessness
It was all an act
It was all a lie

Those changeable watery to baby blue eyes
The flowing golden hair
Made me believe in a fantasy fairytale life
But it was all a lie

The old dreamy smile, you shattered
My visions, desires and dreams
You mercilessly destroyed
Leaving an empty person without hope only unforgettable lies

WHY DIDNT I REALIZE IT WAS ALL A LIE
Its funny how people can be fooled only to later realise that those words were all lies
Poetic Eagle Nov 2018
I thought l would use their judgements
As inspiration
But it's not enough motivation
Maybe l grow with being judged
Poetic Eagle Feb 2020
You give your heart away to the ones who already have enough love from others so yours may not mean anything. You left empty and it  is that vaccum that kills slowly. Accepting love from others that care may seem reasonable but the difficult part comes when you can't reciprocate the same love because yours has already been given away. Without knowing you have broken a heart already and that makes two people hurting. Life would be so much easier if you didn't expect to get exactly what you give. Just love everyone the same way Jesus loved the church. The ones you love don't love you and you love the ones that don't love you. Its karma. The cycle will go on, mental illness n depression will never cease. Why not open up to change. Don't give away your heart just give the love and don't expect the same thing in return. It's not risky at all coz love has never failed......not yet

How can you let go
When the person was never yours
But still lives in you
It's so sad

Dear hope please stop making people believe in impossibilities

I just need a whisper
Tell me I'm not as unforgettable as your silence makes me feel
To the person who existed in the abstract

I remember the days we used to love in letters,
High school, love so surreal
Pure and free, it almost felt real
I wish l could continue the past
And write you a letter
I have a lot to say,
Lines to rhyme
I want to write you a letter
would appreciate the gesture?
But then l remember I'm in no position to write you a love letter
Remember the days when all your texts were in letters with a little " kiss before you open"😂
Poetic Eagle Mar 7
If l could turn back the hands of time
I would go back to the time that
I once "held you close"
Where there was nothing but unspoken words between us
Letters to my bestfriend
Poetic Eagle Nov 2019
you just turned 18 yet nothing changes
its just the date and time that changes
it still feels the same
not as happy as l anticipated
happy birthday to me

We owe life

Used to sleep to see your face
Now l sleep to forget you
Times change

No matter how much it hurts
Nomatter how much we cry
We can't turn back the hands of time
BUT

how do you let go
when your memories are still holding on
your mind knows whats best but the heart says otherwise
Poetic Eagle Aug 2018
I smile at my grief
Thought l would get some relief
But my conscience betrayed my belief

My victory was in my ambition
But l failed to have the determination
What was the use of the demonstration
When life proved to be nothing but violation

Although it hurts l get up
I was taught never to give up
It's hard to get to the top
But the view is beautiful from up

I will fly the highest
Who said l cant be the greatest
When l can work the hardest
And someday will be the best
Not like the rest
Tired of being 16 but the dreams are within reach
Poetic Eagle Dec 2023
Perhaps l misssed your desired words
But l caught the ones you stirred
Once they hurt, a little tears here and there
Today, l hope my interpretation misconstrued
My fault for starting this conversation anew
Sometimes l wish people never meant what they said,

Love ain't blind
Blind are those who
have never loved

Love is in the air
Thats why it always disappear(evaporates) after sometime
Love sometimes ain't meant to stay
Poetic Eagle Mar 2018
Love doesnt hurt
Hurt are those who have
Never taken the risk to love
Poetic Eagle May 2018
Love is not pain
Pain is getting hurt

I wrote my heart on a paper,
Words, light they seem,
Yet poetry can't erase this dream.
For still, I want you, it's clear and true,
In these lines, my love shines through.
Love from a distance
Poetic Eagle Feb 2020
Nothing is loyal except for your shadow it never leaves
In the dark it's not visible
But it's always close

How can you be with people and feel so lonely
Maybe its only me who feels tt way
Poetic Eagle Mar 2017
My life is mystery
A question that wants to remain unanswered
If l find the answer life changes the question
Life is PAIN
i wonder if l will uncover something someday

As l reminisce on the past days
All l can say is thank you God
Had so many downs but still got up
Not by might not by power
Better is the ending than beginning of the matter. It's been a long  hard year but behold everything had passed away. After all joy cometh in the morning
Poetic Eagle Apr 2021
It's the silence of the night
That makes the thoughts of you so loud
Close in distance

I kept wondering what it would be like falling in love after a heartbreak
And **** why didnt l let go sooner
Let go and make room for new
Poetic Eagle Oct 2023
In tales told near and far, I stand alone,
Always the villain in stories, widely known.
But deep within, a heart yearns to change,
To break free from this fate, rearrange.
When you realise you are the bad person in everyone's story
Poetic Eagle Aug 2021
It's 2am, staring at the stars,
Spread so bright
A reminder that in the beautiful night l am not alone
Thoughts scattered in my head
Emotions too confused to fit in one poem
I am tired but what exhaust me still keeps me awake
One of the many dreadful days
Poetic Eagle Jan 20
I don't know how to move on
Without loving you
Your love is all l know, for now

Him: what if l fall for her
Her:  will just pick you up
Random thought
Poetic Eagle May 2018
Misconception
I am only but just a child
Seeking to have an adventure
But l understand
I was taught to understand the world and most times l realise my mistake
I might almost repeat it but if rectified
Don't l deserve some forgiveness
In a split l would have already reformed and  in return what do l get?
Judgement....the kind that leaves you bruised and buttered
In pain n agony only asking why
Why now of all times when l was being good
In the solemn of your pain u battle to sleep
Is it you or misconceptions
Getting wrongly judged

Thoughts of you begin to fade, but still,
In missing you, my heart feels the chill.
Slowly, time will heal, and I'll find my way,
Learning to live without you, day by day.

You dont need to sleep to dream
Stay awake and watch it happen

Poetic Eagle Oct 2023
All I crave is the hush of the night.
To sit in stillness, no words to say,
And let the tranquil hours drift away.
It's a good weather to take a walk outside but it's midnight
Poetic Eagle Dec 2020
It's midnight,  your face still covers the moonlight
Is it you following me
Or me who can't let go
