Newsflash

Contributed by assassinatorgirl on Monday, 21st February 2005 @ 09:04:27 PM in AEST
Topic: ambiguous



These days are melting together
I can barely tell one from the next
My soul's screams echo inside my caged mind
And for a second I see the light
Why have I chosen to turn away from it?

I shook my head and laughed
Why trust what burns and betrays you?
Why not put this life into the darkness
Which caresses you and cares for you
and holds you tight
and makes you feel loved?
I hate that

I've asked myself about it countless times
And still I don't learn
From my own stupidity
Why am I so dumb?
I wish I could be smart like my idols
I wish I could be them
and I try
But then...
People say I'm fine how I am
But where is all my self-hate coming from?

Why is it fine for others
Who are so utterly flawed
To wallow in imperfection
and be happy how they are
Why do they not strive to acheive self-betterment?
How lazy
I hate that too

And when someone thinks
They are special
They keep bragging
And feel invincible
But when someone like I
Come along to tell them they are not
They get angry
Because they know it's true
They are not special
Just like you.

Again and again
I find myself with people
who are so easily swayed
By how someone looks or thinks
But they never take time
To care about them
I guess what's different about me
Is that I do not talk frivolously
I mean everything I say
Jokes aren't wise
I am sincere with all
That's why I have good friends
And that's why I have none who are in love with me
Because I am honest and true
Because I know it's you
that is ruining the world
and people who are the same
If all of you left
It'd be much happier here.
My solution:
Change your judgmental ways or leave.
Strive to be better all the time.
Mean everything you say.
Only joke if the other knows you're joking.

Very deep. It's a new way of looking at the world...

Out of the whole poem, if I were to pick my favorite line it'd be the first: 'these days are melting together' It really sets the mood for the entire poem. But it was a really good poem overall.
