some of the inspiration came from the Linkin Park song, Somewhere I Belong... Somewhere I Belong I’m surrounded by it This...animosity A dark haze that emanates from me An impulse I find myself giving into more often than not What’s the point of resisting? It’s what I want after all... I can’t stand these people with me I wish nothing more than to escape them But no matter how much I try to get away They reach for my chains and yank me back The only way to escape them is to conform But to conform is suicide Having to submit to them being torture in and of itself For their will is to keep me from being myself, it seems It’s not as if I know no boundaries But their mistrust of everyone keeps them from seeing That I’m not a little girl anymore so the old rules don’t apply That freedom is almost required for this stage in life That her vice grip on me will only allow me to slip through her fingers They don’t understand that I need to get away from them The atmosphere around them is poisonous And I, being the oddball of the group, am the only one repulsed by it Yet each time I break for air, they pull me back under its influence Nonetheless, with each breath I take of their toxin, something else fills my lungs Rebellion The urge to overthrow my oppressors as so many others have So instead of suppressing me, they only fuel me Give me what is needed to rid myself of them I need somewhere else besides this hellhole of a house A house, for it is no home to me A home doesn’t have to endure constant hate between the occupants I need somewhere I don’t have to worry about keeping my anger in check Because I don’t have any anger to check Somewhere I don’t feel out of place The somewhere that I belong ~~Poetry is written emotion~~ |

I like this. It has a very deep self reflecting tone to it but at the same time holding a very rebellious, anti conformity tone. Good write Peace Life is a torment and torment an enigma. So burn the shackles of slavery and let love run free |
