If you don't learn to write your own story, someone else will write it for you

53 poems·Since December 2014

Most of my poems are about pain and hurt, but i am actually not in that much pain. I need to write these so i don't feel the things I write about. i write, generally, in all lowercase because im a rather lazy person :) it takes too much time to hit the Shift key every line. so no hate on my grammer errors, i know theyre there, i just dont care.

to sing

December 12, 2014

i sing to win

i sing to die

i sing to live

i sing to fee;

 

i want to feel something

pain,love,happy,death

i dont care

i just want to feel

 

nothing matters

i sing to express my hate

my love

my fear

 

i sing to hide

i sing to be alive

i sing to forget

i sing to remember

 

i wish to say i sing for you

but i dont

i sing for myself

and myself alone

 

nobody hears my words

my silent plea

nobody hears

the pain i bear

 

nobody hears the words of beauty

of hurt of sorrow of fear

nobody hears them

nobody but me

 

i ask nothing of you

but this....

this one thing

please listen

 

listen to the words i say

but listen to the words i dont

listen between the lines

for the true horrible meaning

 

i meaning things i cant say

i mean things in my words

but most importantly of all

i mean things in the tune

 

i may not say words

ever

when i sing

but i feel them

 

the music is supposed to make

you feel

feel something

anything

 

so listen

to the music

to the words

and feel
