WILLOW


I am a willow
Sitting on the soil
Deep rooted in the ground
A shade for all to sit

Wait a minute,
I'm no willow
I'm just a you writing something
Do I even like writing?
I write so others will say I'm right
In the course of proving others wrong, they all left
Now I have no real friends

I'm caring and out going
But really I need to go out, away from the noise and distraction.
I am soo playful, but then I don't play full due to the fact that I never got to mingle for fear of being corrupt, well fear, that's another thing.

Dramatics are my tactics, people fall for it soo many times, but I'm surprised no one ever rose from it,

I am the leader of the gang
So every male or female wants to be lead by me,
Practically I never did lead her
I was just a lead polished to look like gold.

Cool charms, sweet fragrance, curly hair and awesome clothes make me stand out in the crowd, it is not a bad thing anyway
But I rather stand outside so I can stop choking from the smell of people (I'm not cruel)

Everyone, even my parents feel Im good
Yes, I am, you can trust me
Although I'm not being sarcastic
Seeing that sarcasm is mother tongue to me both ways.

I pretend to listen to people with problems like I'm a psychologist
But really Im just a psycho who loves gist. Seriously what solutions do I profer other than what I'm told and what I read or watch in movies, psycho...

I reach for heights to look down on people. It gets lonely up there but I can't come down, the ladder has been broken by the axe of errs.

I read a lot, I know my grammatical punctuations correctly, reading through my poems you can see that, I'm not judging but tell me, who is me?

Drank a full 100 cl bottle of faker soda, I've been burping ever since, tell me this ain't real.

I am perfect, I guess it's just my mind throwing stunts on me. I was told to go on a quest to find myself. The life I've been living is not me, nobody knows, except for my mind, yeah that snitch of my mind. I was told to never tell her anything.

Actually my name is Willow and I'm no female as the name implies, but maybe I'm male or not, who I'm I?

OBLIVION

She was out later than usual. She just had a lot of work to cover so she could earn more and rest too. She never stayed out this late. As a single mum, in a new town, she made sure she was always available for her eleven year old Misheal.   It started as a light shower, then a heavy downpour. Disappointed looking at her titanium plated wristwatch which was already washing off, she checked the time at the same time recalling when she first got the watch.   It was a lovely Sunday afternoon. Elvis hurried to meet up with her from his recess. He bought her lunch, a plate of chicken and fries with a cup of cappuchino her favourite.   She was overjoyed when she saw the simple gift. Even though it was not worth much, but coming from Elvis even in the midst of the financial crisis he faced, it was everything.  " You didn't have to do this Elvis." She said half smiling, mouth agape, fingers covering her mouth hiding her expression.  "I'd do anything for you Ma ...

THE WAR

            THE WAR ...And that was how the war started. Gun shots everywhere, commotion, fire, people screaming. I woke up in shock wondering if it was a dream. My mum was heavy with my brother. Dad was trying soo hard to get the family together.    Mother snatched me from the bed, strapped me on her back. Dad held her hand and we made for the exit.    Mum was very heavy, fat, swollen and big bellied. I fear for how she will make it.   Admist screams and panic, my dad ran with mum and I into the wild for safety.   At that point, I recalled my favourite song and started singing. Dad placed a palm on my mouth with a stern face which meant I should keep shut. I smiled wondering why I could not sing in the midst of the fire works.   Mum shrieked in pain. "What is it Honey?" My dad asked "I think I'm losing him" my mum replied. "O God not now" my dad whispered in frustration. "What do you need? What can I do t...

GENIUS

To the one genuis, yes you I know you. You think you can hide in that facade of perfect illusion But I broke through it. I still know you Completely You care about your looks, sometimes you know you don't look so good But you say you have no dress sense and you are clad with humour, Everyone laughs it off But it's just a ploy to divert everyone's attention from your fear of bad looks You say you know me, Yes you claim to know everyone They believe in you They trust you Instead you create a group of blind followers What you claim to be Is like sands on the sea Infinite and impossible You are a good performer On stage you tremble You are stricken with tension But you say you are always ready then coat it with I don't even know if I'm ready and seal it with an encouragement to a fellow performer. No one notices your flaws You perfectly conceal them But I know You are scared that I do So you want to paint me as someone controversial Pa...
