So this no-rhyme poem thing is new to me... tell me your true thoughts please. :P
They call me a diamond
One in the rough
Though the latter is true
I am no diamond
A chink in the armor
I suppose that works
A glitch in the system
A failed link
In the chain that is
What life is meant to be for all
A failed link
Though what I am
A bird is what I am
I can sing and
I can fly and
I can dance and
I can cry
But I can't sing
And I can't fly
And I can't dance
But I can cry
My wings are clipped
My throat, sore
My feet are swollen
My tears are all I own
My own soul
Embracing sorrow
Submitting thyself unto
The life that is death
For what is life
Without living?
I rub my eye
Lie down on the grass
The earth hugging me
In its warm embrace
I feel free
A sense of freedom
It's a new sensation
I feel free
How weird to say it
Those words unspoken
Before now unthought
But today released
Taken by the wind
And flying anew
Flying to forbidden lands
Flying with my thoughts
And hopes
And dreams
But only to be struck down
Not by lightning
Not by death
Not by famine
But by the greatest enemy-
Fear
For I am no diamond,
Only the rough
A chink in the armor
A failed link
In the chain of life
(After writing this my mind is scattered. I think I like this type of poetry. Hmm...)
