What if I wanted to Break?, by Mr.Poet Subscribe to rss feed for Mr.Poet

Nothing can ever be as simple as people make it out to be.

To save the state where you are is something difficult to do
by oneself. 

Were all just falling out of rhythm with time. The music
speeds up and were left behind wondering what happened?

When will we all just through our hands up and say SAVE
US!!!!
You aren't suppose to fight this fight alone. There is
strength in numbers and when will you realize this?

I don't know.....

Until you do there will be no forward motion which allows
you move on and life and change and grow.

I can preach all day and attempt to catch your ear. But you
turn the radio dial to full blast and my words are muffled
out by the musical lyrics you think will ease and sooth the
pain.

Carry on and you will see. 

The time you fall to your knees and bring the beggars
plead.

Then you will hear faintly, the embracing melody. Which
brings a tear to the eye makes you ask....

Why did I run?

If your not running from me then what are you running from?


You come and break me down and bury me. 

When you stare at me and look deep into my eyes your killing
me.

I am all these feelings, thoughts and emotions and more. 

Simplicity doesn't come to those who wait it's for the Go
getters.

What are you??

this has nothing to do with the poem you just wrote this is concerning your info you said that people wouldn't think you write poetry by looking at you i disagree ... everyone thinks a emotional person only writes poetry but when i look at someone try to look if there holding something back i can tell if they have a story to tell. poetry is a bunch of writings that form the story of your life i think people that don't show there emotions very much need a way to express them so they write ... me I write depressive and looking at me at school you would see the smart confident girl just hanging and joking with her friends someone who everyone feels good around .... sorry that its so long keep writing :) Felicia Mac
