(not Finished Yet) I Am

lost in a world of my own
destination unknown
you just dont understand
this planes never gonna land
levitating above
the world as i see it
the person i am
i dont wanna be it
im just misunderstood
dont act as i should
it hurts everyday
affects what i say
what i do
everything i ever knew
changed
my minds rearranged
twisted, contorted
completely resorted
nothings like i planned
in the beginning and
its worse than before
the point i called home
the only place ive ever known
that kept me safe 
where i felt in place
where my life 
settled in
where my days
pursued to begin
a new page
of a book
left blank by the gods
in charge of my destiny
those who gamble the odds
thats it
my life's just a game
a casino and i
we're just the same
a string marionette 
played by those superior
a toy puppet like me
found only inferior.........


some other poem i m working on - its really short.

the water so turbulent
rushing to incite
a riot so rough
calms to a whisper
-------------------enough 
quells in the still of night
