Poem Title:
Poem
This world is so evil, Despite the good days. I'm fighting to get out... ...Of this mind contolling maze. Caught up in temptations. Tasting forbidden fruit. The smarter ones that speak the loudest, Are always the ones kept on mute. They won't feed into the devils lies. Or let society get into their heads. But instead of taking a stand for what they believe in, They sit back and let our streets continue to be covered in red. The haters really want to see me fall. But I just can't give up now. Being a clone of another ones soul, Is something my conscience just wouldn't allow. I demand to be my own person. I will live for what I know is right. Completing my own individual purpose, Would be what allows me to walk into my fathers light. I understand that through my struggles, I will rejoice and be free in the end. But I won't be around to live within that happiness, If I was to stop in my tracks and let them win. No more will they witness the tears, That I have continued to shed all these years. Never again scared to face my fears, Because I know my time to shine is near. Smiling down on all the haters. Commending all the fakes, For making me believe that NO MORE is the only thing left that I could take. Now I focus on my destiny, Because I understand what I am worth. When you keep your head up as negativity is pulling you down, Never again could you get hurt. Speaking out to others similar to myself, Each of us are precious jewels. Living for ourselves and no one else, For our own life we now make up the rules. ...It's up to us if we decide to break them.
