teach me
how to live
when i feel
like i'm gonna
die

i can't read through
the scribbles on my
arms as though they
were novels; i think
nothing of it and i
don't know why

i can see creatures in
the clouds when i don't
want to-

they fight and never
play,
they scream and
yell all day and < < oh > >
shit i rhymed, now
i'm a cliche poet
who copies and pastes
their accent marks
and tildes and uses
the word "and" too many
times, trying to become
a slam success;

(the signs are
all there;
unfortunately,
we don't have
the medication
that we've
prescribed, so
we can't get you
fixed up just yet.)

    no,
      no,
        this
          can't
            happen;
          everything
        was
      supposed
    to
turn
    out
      okay

real life
is that
hard and i
don't like it,
i don't like
it one bit

"but everyone
lives, and they
die, and they go
up to heaven with
all the little
angels and gold
paved roads!"


what
kind
of
kindergartner
are you,
believing
this;;;;;;;;;

(sentences
collapsing
on top of
other sentences
in a lyrical
symphony of
madness; it's
all inside
your head, that's
what the horror
movies tell me,
and i think that
they're lying but
i have no physical
proof.)

and it's
all just sad, how come
we're all unhappy
because we're all
crazy in some
way,
shape,
or
form;

ah,
how sad it is
24/140 poems completed.

(this poem was experimental, btw; i was testing out separate, jumbled thoughts & trying to make them (frankensteinly) complete)

I won't be here from tomorrow through around Friday.
I'm sorry you won't get any poems Waaaah! 

(BTW: ALL CO-FOUNDERS OF We-Love-Words:
I need you guys to keep inviting members, adding literature, & doing co-founder things while I'm gone.
It's a really big favor, I know, but I just need someone/some people to check on it for me until I come back.)

ANYWAYS: hope you liked the poem!! :heart:

Really? xD Cause I knew a few older people at
the ministry I went to often that claim they can do the same. 😏 That's a gift.

We're all cliches. Stop thinking other people are special. 😏 Especially yourself please. xD
