So I recently began listening to a lot of spoken word and was inspired to write a poem. Please be aware I probably haven't written a poem since I was forced to do it in the 3rd grade. So I'm new to this in every sense of the word. So I apologize if this is cliche, poorly written, or blows harder than a whale coming up for air :-). I didn't have a place to share this with people who I don't know on a personal level, so I came here. Thank you however for viewing this and leaving any feedback, it is much appreciated.
Every time you see me it's like you woke to a bad dream
I don't apologize but I'm sorry that I'm not that thing
You needed or expected
But like a four foot fat kid on the basketball team I still feel rejected
The average mans pain and strife
The soul being cut by the blunt edge of a rusty kitchen knife
But don't get it confused because I do love my life
Cause you helped bring it light
That pierced through the carmel brown darkness brought on by a man named Jameson who visited every night
But you know what...fuck you...I deserve better and I know I'm right
Haha...look at me writing poetry..this must be a fucking sight.
