This world was never meant for meA Poem by JbPerhaps you'll listen now As the hope is draining from my finger tips This world was never meant To be embedded with my foot prints To be flooded with my tears There's only enough room for pure white snow And blank stairs that cover me As I try to speak, the dying dove Wings floating amongst the crowd Can't fly anymore, Because the sky was never meant To hold such a disaster Gliding amongst the suffering Unstable air I know you won't listen though Even though the night is falling Daffodils folding in to rest until spring The emerald grass all weathered Just like my heart I now understand What you're trying to say But you will never understand How I've needed to set myself free To the point where I'm bleeding, Life escaping beneath the stars Taking my eyes away I could have told you That this life was never meant For such an aimless dream For such a frightening scream The thorn, the chip amongst the crystal So do you know? Do you know where I need to go? Can you listen for the insanity? This world was never meant For me
