Untamable


Untamable This space is cold The name I chose became the main chain-reaction to maintain with a brain too strange for the average face to smile at so brace and don't hate just cope I came to hold the whole world in a sling when I sing a lullaby thing and bring protection from under my wing I'm no king or savior I'm not here to judge behavior I'm just here to take your hand to ease you through the pain a guide through the rain a light so bright on the darkest nights because life is like water sometimes its frozen in time sometimes its hotter at times it gets cloudy at times its fast and roars loudly But it's always moving forward No looking back only towards Twists, turns and bends and sends Overwhelming sensations that seem to never end But in the end you and me will be forever friends You can confide in me All the pain inside of me Has no privacy And if you feel down its okay you have the right to be To just act out violently But your beautiful I wish you could see what I can see What a sight to see I might just be A monster but I don’t try to be We'll shoot for the moon so if we don't make it We'll be amongst the stars and the world we'll take it And this tough situation we're placed in we'll escape it They call us back to torment but we don't hear you The best time I ever saw these evil people was in the rear view So goodbye to the stress and depression The problems and constant guessing The past and hello to the present and We can love ourselves today for who we are And what we're representing To give the entire fucking world a new impression An expression of love and only intimate tension Case closed end of discussion no more questions I guess then we can both say we're blessed then And the next time these deceitful heathens Try to give us a beating for no good reason We'll have the courage and the right words To overcome all obstacles on our turf Don't worry about the jumpy nerves Because we're already flying with the birds So free and undisturbed Looking down on all the perps If they try to pull us down they'll get burned and get hurt And they'll tell us they're jealous of us For being above us And we'll just say it's okay because you can't touch us And they'll have no choice but to love us Untamable

I wrote this during a real fucked up time. Just a bunch of crazy shit was going on and I had to be the one to keep my head up. So I wrote this poem (I usually don't write poems) to help me cope with my life at the time. So I hope it can make sense to you. If you feel misunderstood or violated, you're not alone.
