ALICE

I sometimes feel like I’m in wonderland,

My borderline like a looking glass,

But unlike Alice,

I can’t seem to cross through,

For I’m already stuck at the other side,

I guess, I’m in borderland,

But, this isn’t Tokyo,

It’s simply my mind,

My consciousness,

My subconsciousness,

Whatever it be

Sometimes the mad hatter,

Sometimes the queen of hearts,

Yelling off with your head,

Screaming like that

Sometimes the Cheshire cat,

Sometimes the white rabbit

Grinning wide with teeth,

Running late like that

But most of all,

I guess,

I’m sometimes the eat me cookie,

That forgot to be baked

But then again why does it matter,

When I won’t realise I’m any of this,

But then again why does it matter,

When I won’t remember any of this

In my heart I’m just sitting on a field of grass,

Reading a book and having tea,

I guess,

All that is real,

All that happens,

Simply feels like something of dreams,

Something of nightmares,

Something in my head,

I guess,

I’m just like that

‘Letting Home Go’

The more they urge me to stay over

Bigger becomes my will to go forever

Everyone says “why do you play me?”

I cry “I’m not, I’m not able can’t you see?

I’m silenced from the crowd, the world

I’m trapped in the walls of my own home”

Let me grow up

Take off my blindfold and cuffs

Stop keeping me in this place of your own

And forcing me to call it my forever home

All this time I’ve been obsessively controlled

But you called them rules so they wouldn’t break or fold

But now I can see

The lies you urged me to eat

So with that now known

I’m ready to grow and let go

Popcorn

Oh little kernel

Why won't you pop?

All the others have

All the others fulfilled me

All the others are useful

All the others are

delicious snacks

Why aren't you like them?

Oh little kernel

At the bottom of the bag you'll stay

Continuing to be useless

While the others pop

While the film is playing

While the bag is in the bin

That's where you'll stay

Oh little kernel

I have no time for you

You're useless in comparison

You aren't tasty

You aren't soft

You're not like the others

You're nasty and hurt my teeth

Stay at the bottom of the bag

That's where you belong

Frustration (A haiku)

Too tired to cry

Too scared to die

Too upset to try and lie

Lone… Ly

My heart is a lock engraved with a poet’s last words,

It beats, but the silver that runs deep in place of my veins,

It diminishes into a pile of ashes,

It beats, but the gold that runs deep in place of my arteries,

It scalds into a pellet of red

Angina tapping at the corner of my coronary artery that has gone far beyond shrivelled up,

Perhaps, that is the significance of the stigma of the nonsensical eyes that plaque my walls

I clench my fists, and reach for the door to neverland,

But my peacemaker, it brings me no peace

I can feel it, my body giving up on me,

Even though I would kneel on a bed of thorns for it to not,

I cross my legs and pretend I can saunter even as the chains marring my limbs never resign

The lock of my heart, it slowly crumbles

But it prevails,

It’s left a lonely shadow of what it was,

Perhaps my heart is an exact reflection of who I am

My heart is a not a lock,

It’s a store with a door with a lock,

It has grown chambers, atriums and ventricles over time,

While I am lost in the loop of time

It’s crazy,

For it craves to thrive and belong,

Yet it refuses to be see-through, or easy to walk to,

When you want to get through its lock,

You’d have to knock

But, it’s just a loop that goes two ways,

You’d never stay where you want to,

You’d never stay where you believe you belong

My heart,

It doesn't want to lay lifeless and lonely,

Yet everything it does leads to this forsaken fate

If you take ly out of lonely,

Lonely really is lonely

My heart,

It is lonely,

My heart,

It is as lonely as I am..

hey y’all..

So I have some poems that I write,

that usual make me cry.

I write them during times

when I can’t understand my life..

Can I share them with you?

is it something I should do?

Let me know...

for I have many to show.

#poems and quotes #my poem #i write poems #or little songs #Can I share them with you?#Share the tears with me

Sometimes, it isn’t the one who takes your breath away, it’s the one that reminds you to breathe.
