"Reach for that you cannot grab"
"Climb the tallest tree you see"
I'm so sick of the public scheme,
For all I know, I am not me.
Who are you to lead my life?
Pressure, cutting like a knife.
The deepest cuts are those that remain,
but despite apology, stay the same.
Criticism at it's worst,
sometimes it feels as if I'm cursed.
Expected to be all that I'm not,
following trends and all that is 'hot'.
Friends can stay or come and go.
Who is real? I'll never know.
Betrayal is something I've grown used to,
and I'm sure that it's the same for you, too.
I've been swimming oceans,
just to ease your mind.
I've been taming demons,
just for you to rule my life.
Why can't I be who I want to be?
Who is 'I'?
Who is 'Me'?
All these words you throw around,
I'll take every one without a sound.
These walls I've built,
You're tearing them down,
All my hopes, dreams and fears,
are now scattered on the ground.
But there's this little word I hear,
Chiming in my head,
loud and clear.
For this little word ,there's no rhyme or reason,
changes indefinitely depending on the season,
Something you cannot obtain,
it's so cruel, so gruesome, so insane,
Those who don't want to be a reject,
well, You can say that what they're trying to be is
"Perfect".
Oh, wow... this was pretty good. I know how it can a PAIN to come up with cool ryhmes that will keep the rythm. And let me just sau that you did it perfectly here!
Why can't I be who I want to be?

... Like this part !!
This is one of the most well structured and elegantly written poems I've ever seen. You can actually make people understand and relate to what you're trying to get through. You use reality as you're main theme, and you let you're emotions guide you through you're writing. The tempo, the flow, it's just so Wow, you left me speechless but at the same time with an incredible inspiration. Keep writing don't let others put you down, I'm oficially a fan.
Thank you
this is so deep and amazing. It describes how i feel most of the time i will never forget this.
Thanks
!
