Heartbreak BluesA Poem by AaronCI think the poem speaks for itself...
They say everything happens for a reason
But it seems God is committing treason on my soul And I feel like leavin' this world on its own. Like I said, patience only brings grief and regret Why didn't I move faster when I had the chance? When opportunity knocks, you can go and ignore it But when it breaks down the door, better answer the warnin' But when the door isn't even there, Opportunity comes and goes like it doesn't really care Has no time to stop and think about what is and isn't fair Won't even stop and stare at the fact That I'm suffering from the Heartbreak Blues with a tack In my shoes as I run on the track with my boots 'Cause the shoes are like my heart So with my asthma, oxygen doesn't come quick And I drop. Oh, praise the Lord for writing 'Cause if not for that, I'd probably be fighting For my sanity Since facts aren't very enlightening. I mean I'm only 14, what do I know about heartbreak? It's only happened to me, oh, five times? Is my life at stake? Naw, but my faith is. Confidence is becoming wasted Why does life have to be so hasted? It moves so fast, you just have to face it And although I'd rather not taste it, Hearbreak bitterness is not easily avoided With pain and chagrin, it is anointed And with me, it always seems to have an appointment. But, hey, am I cursed? Probably... But that shouldn't stop me from living life properly. Just 'cause I can't score like a soccer team, Predict fate like Saucrates, Or not tough like a hockey team, Doesn't mean I can't break the ice. How can what I say be nice When nothing ever turns out right? I'm usually the optomist, Now I'm the Goddamn opposite. When it comes to this topic, Everyone just stay off of it. This is my heart speaking through my phonics Sadness like water flowing through a faucet Into a basin called Anonymous Since I don't know who I am or who I should be. Does the future look ominous? Surely. But now I'm sounding selfish I just wanna stay in my outfit Maybe in confinement. I don't even care if this is rhymin' Thoughts don't make sense. Jealousy's a b***h Excuse my french. But it's like getting hit with a wrench It sticks to your head Like skunks to a stench. I don't run from the lens 'Cause I'm always seen As being happy But that's not always me. See, this Aaron Clasky Tolerates so much for his queen. Why can't she understand what that means? © 2010 AaronC |

The only thing with me is that I can't really rap so I write instead and I've always had this love for words and the English language so I guess it works.. more..Writing
