Only for me

Contributed by lostrelic on Sunday, 26th October 2008 @ 05:12:10 AM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry

Like short fuses our time is burning away quicker then we can run
What more can we do the kings have all gone to dust with soiled crowns
Just knowledge wasted on walls to many mummies in museums getting older
Stuck with weathered rules laid forth with no reason for the guilt that sowed
History and the anger it represents a vicious circle when we are learnt never to forget
Enemies are hard to swallow when it’s only color or religion to hate someone
Wars of man fighting for gods long buried only weak stories remain
Self righteousness and endless praise only remain in these thin walls
And we expect change to come from another mans hands

Reasons forgot we have wasted the lands and twisted the seasons
Forecasting tomorrow with ill regard and entrusted outlooks
Reminds me of cookies and the spoiled taste of sour milk
Poison our product from the eyes to the ears
And a facial crème to match if you feel “uncomfortable in your age”
Solutions with false labels products all for the mind what really washes scars of pain
We are fake and we all believe it we all believe it

Corked and tossed the party sounds like its unwinding
This echo sounds like someone else’s voice
Their crimes lost along with empty tombs and buried dreams
Its all related as the same as me and you
All along I guess its all our fault look at the spill that we swim
This raft of make-believe and human skins and a empty body to match

Just turn the radio louder I think I can hear myself thinking
Turn the tube on my responsibility is becoming my own
Its my time only for me my voice only for me I am only empty

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
