Poem Title:
Poem
I end up insecure like a homeless individual, Going through the streets of sheer cruelty I desire to be mighty like you, my faith fuel Blowing like the breeze of mere uncertainty Hope you're happy where you are... Well, I have packed up all my things I'm about to head to another country I will see what this lovely life brings Maybe, I will wondrously be free I hope you shine like a midnight star... I am done fighting for the crown of recognition I am backing down my guard of glorification I accept my fate at hand Don't stand where I stand I am aware of my decisions made here And I dare you to try to change my mind I am not afraid or cowering away in fear I'm staying right here...made up my mind and choose to unwind I hope you are motivated to the highest bar I am just a man A man that tries his best best he can To find solace in the oddest location I am just a boy A boy who has unbroken, blameless joy While wandering around in anticipation Hoping you are zealously zooming like a car Don't follow me In the woods of oblivion Don't even see me As I attempt to zero in On a prize I have yet to win On treasure through thick and thin Don't hear my echoes Don't stick your nose In my business again Don't fence me in... Don't fence me in... Hope your success takes you far You said aloud: Swallow your pride In the rowdy crowd, I try to hide... Subside from my side Subside from my side Abide elsewhere... You still don't care... I prepare for the worst Or for the better I think I might just burst You still wear your I-don't-care sweater I hope I have healed your shameful scar I end up insecure as a widower in the rainstorm I am a spider without his meal, left starved and hopelessly dyin' I wish someone out there will mend my scars and keep me warm Now, I've come to realize that I have become a brazen lion Hope you don't mind me keeping your words of enlightenment in my jar It's hard to fathom This feeling of numb This eerie isolation hurts I long to be strong I hope, one day, I will belong Let us both hope that we belong and end this greed war... For we fight for peace And for peaceful unity, nothing to bizarre Oh Lord, give us peace Not to mention hope...
