Poem Title:
Poem
I'm reaching out but no one graces my hands I'm rapping the presence and no one appreciates my gift So I keep hope that you'll hear When I know it's a myth Mirrors reflect what we already know Pictures of us are memories that glow In your silverware I see a portion of me As I feed myself this illusion we're free and Rome went on without Caesar himself I'm doing so much but it's never enough I say i don't know how to lose Yet i never really win And if it's the sunset i chose Why must i live amongst these men I'm doing the best that i can bring myself to do I'm doing what i feel in heart is right But there is no heaven or peace anywhere in sight Would i be so wrong to ask for closure within my cries For those of you who know, i'm lost as a selfish man, low I hope you understand, i'm just requesting to go I walked with you through the trials we endure I lifted you up from the trenches unpure with no strength to cure the irony is Some people will suck, the life out of you But only when you choose to live happily and free It only makes this music mean, so much more to me and Rome went on without Caesar himself I'm doing so much but it's never enough I say i don't know how to lose Yet i never really win And if it's the sunset i chose Why must i live amongst these men
