Hello,
This is obviously the first time that I have written a poem as I’m sure you will all be able to tell. I just need an outlet and wanted to try something new. Please give me your honest feedback.
As I stated into the deep blue ocean,
My truth was finally awoken.
As waves are briskly brushing, I realise I am nothing.
I am used. I am broken.
I am powerless. I am hated.
I am gullible, always vulnerable.
Always Weak.
Your voice, your whisper impaled my ear,
I am now forever in fear.
Depressive episodes never far in the distance,
You ruined my confident, joyful exsistance.
As the day draws to a close,
I always take a huge dose.
The pain, it numbs
My mood, it brightens.
Overdose will always be a fear,
Though not as much as knowing you are near.
Thank you for reading,
Please provide feedback below.
Zachary Phoenix
Living in the depths of the underworld
Hackers prey on personal details
Large corporations use it to their advantage
Media watches your every move
CCTV watches your every action
No-one is safe
Nothing is personal
You can’t go to the toilet without questions
Social network junkie
Leave your life personal
Burn your magazine
Turn off your computer
Switch off your TV
Come to your senses
Socialize with the human race
Human races communication is deadening
Human races inventions are killing themselves
Social Network Junkie
The internet was never safe
What have we created
A terror we do not understand
A positive light comes almost never
Always the negative
Internet is speeding the human race too fast
No human is capable of going on every website during their life time
The flow of information is too much
No-one is safe
At least not until we know the truth
