I try to speak
I try to fight
I try for happiness
I try for flight
I am stuck
I am grounded
Cannot move
Cannot speak
An opinion not heard
A choice wrongly made
Hush, not a single word
Hush, not a blaze burned
I come from silence
I go into silence
Not a word to be spoken
Not a word to be heard
I try to speak
I try to fight
I am turned away
I am turned down
My opinion not heard
My choice already made
I shall float away in the darkness
On the whispering wind
To get to a place where finaly
I begin to speak
I stop from fight
I reach happiness
The end of flight
Death

OTHER POEMS WRITTEN BY skyyberry1987
ConfessionI knew I didn't want to admit it But I knew I deserved better than you And my love surpassed Everything you put me through It scares me how much of me I gave to you How much I thought I needed you But in reality I fell in love with the man I believed you could be.  |
Black lives matterWe're not supposed to talk about it Talk about how racism still exists We're supposed to hang our heads low And not let our anger show They expect us to just endure The beatings, the murders, the torture The same ones who should protect and serve They don't think the black man deserves Deserves the respect, deserves his rights And what are we supposed to do Sit back and not fight I fear for my future son To have to explain to him That there's no such thing As equality Not in this world They only see what they choose to see The color you appear to be The brown skin on your outer being Who you are doesn't mean a thing Because to them you're just another "" on the streets And the badge they carry will protect them From all of the violence The violence they are creating to begin with But my dear future son Always hold on and stay strong For you will know better That black lives matter. |
AbuseWhen his anger Leads to harsh words Verbal abuse, attacking your character And then he gets physical "But it was just a push" Until he balls up his fist Get out while you still can You don't know his plan And even when he promised It would never happen again You can't be sure If this abuse will ever end. |
Catch your fateI lay under the blackened sky stars blinking a code at me but I didn't understand confusion and frustration built up inside me turned to go into the house gust of wind whirled around me spun me several times fear trembled thru my soul across the yard I saw a ghostly figure naked and calling my name he motioned me to come near each step I took felt like slow motion seemed like miles I slithered stood in front of him shaking he reached out and touched me a chill shook my bones snapped his fingers pointed up to the sky when I looked up it went blank stars and moon gone it slowly turned a plum purple visions in the sky appeared one star at a time took shape so mesmerized I didn't notice my chest bleeding naked transparent creature with his back to me was tossing something in the air tossed it way high above him then vanished the object was falling to the ground as it got closer I could see it was a heart it was bright purple so I knew it was mine echo of... |
covered in bloodI walk alone in the dark The snow swiriling around me The thoughts in my head Are trying to overtake me I cannot remember the past few hours And the questions keep forming All I remember is the man Coming towards me And my vision going red I need a clue as to what happened Something that can help me remember But as I look at my hands The memories come back Because thay are covered In blood |
nightmaresTwisting turning Always awake Never to sleep Forever to quake A rifle to the head The devil in your bed Fire, lightning Senses heightening Nightmare nightmares You haunt me And scare me I cannot predict you You I cannot see You hide during the day And play the night away Running around my head These thought I dread I can never sleep I can never rest When I am in your presence I am forever in fear You almighty You horrendous Never leave me alone You twisted You disgusting Horrid nightmares |
SpeakI try to speak I try to fight I try for happiness I try for flight I am stuck I am grounded Cannot move Cannot speak An opinion not heard A choice wrongly made Hush, not a single word Hush, not a blaze burned I come from silence I go into silence Not a word to be spoken Not a word to be heard I try to speak I try to fight I am turned away I am turned down My opinion not heard My choice already made I shall float away in the darkness On the whispering wind To get to a place where finaly I begin to speak I stop from fight I reach happiness The end of flight Death |
tracingI can hear you Crying inside From so far away Feeling the agony of your broken emotions Yet, I cannot reflect upon these thoughts I can only receive a translated energy Demonstrating your pain through these sorrowful steps In a direction unknown Our ultimate endurance through the gauntlet of time Will depict its own version of an undying love Segregated by cadence Intertwined with desire Inescapably bound and forevermore in one's heart Through this adversity Stirs the brilliant joy of healing wounds Shaping; The absolute meaning of who we can be... |
At War With My HeartCaught in the middle of Passion and stability. In between doing what's right And what feels good to me. With one, I'm safe The other, I'm free. Should I hide my true self Just to live comfortably? One can't be so blind To our overwhelming chemistry. I willingly bare my soul Every time you enter me. But I need him too, He is a part of me. At war with my heart, My feelings betray me. I know I need to pick one, Before this lust consumes me. |
Despair then SolaceI never wanted to need you I wanted out But the sadness of breaking a heart Leaves me cold and splintered Our obsession twisted my throat And forced me to choose despair over you Though you think I'm cruel Letting you go was a gift, to you I hope a time will come When you will understand my darkness And why I had to go Into the light of the new day |
