Some more original poetry from the vault of my mind. Please read and enjoy.


Don't ever be afraid to just speak your mind

That's the only way we'll ever break the ties

Of all the snakes who slide around in disguise

Spy on our lives while we get a slice of the pie

It doesn't make sense that the world is a lie

We're meant to be slaves til the day we all die

A pay cheque over our heads to pay off debts

Showing off flashy jewels that we don't own yet

What are we gonna show when there's nothing left

And we walk around aimless like the walking dead

Would you be happier with a hole in the head

Or rising up to take the earth back instead

That's not the way I wanna live my life

Neither should you so stand for the fight

Put your hand high in the sky, cry for your right

As a human being should our lives have a price?



For more work like this.
