When I first showed
My friends my poems
They told me
I should turn it into a song
I told them no
I don't want my words
To be replaced by another
Or to be misheard
With no meaning
I don't want them to be forgotten
In the years
Words are letters
Formed together
To create a sentence
With a purpose
A meaning
Something to be remembered
To a random person
It means nothing
My words would mean nothing
If I didn't put
Time
And heart into it
Like many people do
Today
Saying something someone said singing and sounding stupid
"Every little thing
Is gonna be alright"
No it's not
Not really
Something bad is
Bound to happen
It's been said so many times
It's lost all meaning
It's lost it's purpose
It's been said by so many people
It's been viewed by
Different perspectives
Different people with
Different meaning
Soon to be forgotten
Only few continue to be heard
But for how long?
Nothing lasts forever
Except for the people
Not their meaning
It's been forgotten
Just like yesterday's sun
Or last years presence
How can you be forgotten
If you're not remembered
I don't exist
Therefore my
Purpose and meaning
Doesn't exist
Unless spoken
And they have been spoken
They have been yelled
From the highest of
Points
They have been shouted
And cried
From the top of my lungs
And from the bottom of my heart
But every person
Falls down
Every person
Gets pulled
And dragged
When repeated
I've got too much on
My mind to stop
I'm on a roll
But no!
They pull me down
By turning
My purpose
Into something new
By turning me into something
Someone
I'm not
Changing everything about me
And forgetting who I
Really am
All of it gets watered down
And drown
In nonsense
And nothingness
Cause the meaning will
Never be found
And the purpose will
Be chained and
Bound
While the words itself
Will be nothing but
Sound
Ever get that feeling
When you're so happy
You cry
Or feel so right
You shiver
With excitement
I want to be remembered like that
But they repeat my words
With no meaning
Purpose
Time
Or heart
That Im forgotten
Or was I never really remembered
