My poems

[SimpleMan]

I don't write it if I don't mean it.I love to write poems, it's a way for me to express my feelings, english is not my primary language, but I can't help it, I find it easier to express myself in english.

A family thing - I talk about how a bad influence from your family can tear you up, but no matter how low you feel, as long as you believe in yourself, you can use this experience for better.

You know it's a family thing,
When they shout and start to scream,
No, you won't say a word,
You just live in their world

Tired of being treated like ****,
You feel like it's time to quit,
Leave this world far behind,
Free yourself from their bind

Just one more chance, for God's sake,
Humans, they make mistakes,
Take your heart, put some patches,
Ignore the pain and hide your scratches

That's what you've been telling yourself,
For the past years, ignoring the self,
You are just twenty three years old,
How much can you keep that pain untold

You know not the answer, but the end,
Till then, you just keep on to pretend,
That all things are better and brighter,
Put out that damn smile and be quiter

That's what you've been doing all this time,
Don't call my liar, I am the voice within your mind,
The one that spits these words outside,
Come with me, it's time for that ride,

I am showing you the things of past,
Don't judge, don't blame, you are not miscast,
This is your life, this is your play,
Come on, it's gone, leave it this way

I am showing you the things of future,
Of course, as long you keep that suture,
You won't be able to reach this point,
So, bleed out, and give your heart a new anoint

I give the present back to you,
This is the time to show them who,
Has the power to reborn from ashes,
Motivation, will and passion.

The inner battle - I've been "battling" depression for the last 3 years, this is how I experience depression and how I keep on "fighting", with love.

I found myself in a battle,
A battle with me, against me, for me,
I fight with the dragon, I have no weapon,
Depression is its name, this is not a game,
It is invisible, anywhere and everywhere,
I take hits from all sides, my shield does not survive,
It talks with me from inner voice, always so many words,
It brings me down, it takes me up, I am never alright,
The dragon spits fog, I am lost in my own world,
The dragon spits fire, burning every single desire.
They say you have to take its heart and be forever bright,
I've lost mine, now I am crossing that line,
With its wings it covered my soul, leaving me without a goal,
With its hands it breaks my heart, ouch, it hurts a lot,
It closed me in a cell, telling me, this is your own hell,
No way to escape, no way to get out, I am torn apart,
You may wonder why I fight, when everything seems lost from start,
I fight cause this is all I have, my hope for better days,
With love, I've made a sword, the only light in my doomed world,
It shines brighter than the Sun, giving me faith in all that comes.

My pray - I wrote this while I was under a very depressive mood, I've lost the love of one of the most beautiful human being I ever met.

You left me without saying a word
Maybe this is what I deserve
I've been with you for all this time
Now, I'm alone, losing my mind

It's been a week of pain and sorrow
Sometimes, I wish, no tommorow
I want this pain to go away
A word from you, this is my pray

Morning comes, my eyes are shut
Another day with broken heart
I tell myself, rise up today
You will have an answer for the pray

With hope, I glue my broken heart
I dare to dream, my love is back
Not knowing how far I've gone
Lost in a fantasy world

The night returns with all its dark
The dream I had it falls apart
A shout of pain, my broken heart
I've lost my soul, a chance I had

Simple man!

Recognising external transience
Yet the touch of love being eternity
In unclinging innocence
Everlasting connectedness is a certainty

Longing Love - I talk about an unfulfilling love.

I've been, trying to, talk with you, but,
You've been, not on tone, I'm alone,
I've been, for so long, your only song, but,
It's all gone, the tears we shed alone,
Are just moments, buried in past, gone too fast,

Lately, I've never been so, lonely,
Thinking that, I am meant to be alone,
That all the things I feel about love,
Are just like the stars above,
You just watch them, unable to touch them,

Is this the punishment of desire,
The one that ignited this everlasting fire,
Is this the price of a longing love,
The one I've been dreaming for so long,
Is this what is meant to be, a life of agony

Consider : love seeking reciprocation is not love but desire
Stuck in swampy egoistic mire
Disillusionment being inevitable
Roots in attachment being unstable

I know what are you telling me, I really do, but now, it's even more clearer, because, thanks to you, I got an "outside" view of this situation.Do you ever find yourself in a situation where you know what's the "right choice" but you keep doing the same mistake over and over again? That's what it happens with a longing love, you wish it so much, knowing that this "wish" brings so much pain when you become aware that it was just a "dream" made up by your mind.
