What Has Become Of UsA Poem by taylor.mickles
There's a girl with her head pressed against the window
She's fogging up the glass There's a boy with a heart so big, but no one would know He rarely goes to class Everyday they see each other Everyday they stare Secretly wanting one another But talk to each other, they don't dare He sees within her the hidden sorrow She sees within him his checkered past Both live like there is no tomorrow Both have found their soul-mate at last But cliques and reputation have kept them apart When did this trend of having to please everyone else even start? It's sad that fear can hinder us And take away our chance at love's affections It hurts to know most encounters are full of lust And we're too busy criticizing our own reflections When will we see that its not all about looks? When will personality come into play? When will romance exist like it does in the books? Why do I see people looking through each other everyday? Are we not all fellow human beings? Don't we all cry? So many people say hurtful things And my question is why? How can you live in an endless universe and not want to explore the worlds in those around you? Cant you see the boundless diversity that surrounds you? This world is full of life and beauty There is wisdom and there is nature We should celebrate by doing things for our community We are not promised a future I have seen darkness But I have also seen the light For the feeling and the joy of love, I will fight If you have a dream then follow it F**k what everyone else has to say Through the hardships wont you submit? The beauty and the tragedy is that today could be your last day © 2013 taylor.mickles |
