Well
If it's not true
It wouldn't have felt so hard
And never thought he/she could be
So cold
If you haven't poured your heart
Till it's dry
You don't know what it's like
Free fall from the height
Balance shift
Something isn't right like
Silent calm before the storm
And you know the rest
History
Thus far

Still he/she asked again,
"Should I believe in destiny?"

Yes
At the right time
A right place
No other choice
What tomorrow brings
Genre: Inspirational
Theme: Good night dreamers, Good morning doers

MAN..... !!!!
I'm SICK of All The CLAIMS …
People Make Nowadays … !!!

" CLAIMING They THIS ! "...
" CLAIMING They THAT ! "...

Talkin' Bout' How …
They Makin' Guns CLAP … !!!!!

And EMPTYING Clips … !!!
WITHOUT Cash For Bullets … ?!?

See These Are The FIENDS …
Who Talk of BIG Schemes …
Talk of Their Teams... !!!!!

But DON'T Have The MEANS … ???
To SUPPORT What They Speak … ?!?!?

CLAIMING They CHIC … !!!
When They And Their Clique …
Are CLEARLY Quite Weak … !!!
And Living In... " DREAMS " …

And Some Have The GALL …
To Run … FOOLISH Talk … !!!

"I think he's a *****,
who needs to take liks' !
The next time I see him,
he'll know what it is !"

Of Course ALL Their THREATS …
Are Made Behind … TEXT … !?!

Or Made To Their Friends …
As If That Gives STRENGTH …
And YES A DEFENCE … !!!
For ALL Their NONSENSE … !!!!!

I Wonder Sometimes … ?
Whether DEEP In Their Minds …
They … TRULY Realise …
That Threatening LIFE … !!!
Is A... Slippery Slide …
Towards The DARK SIDE … !!!
  
So While They CLAIM...
Their... " PRIDE "... !!!

I Claim NOTHING Like …
VIOLENCE As My Guide …
To … Living Life RIGHT … !!!

My Minds More Inclined … !!!
To CLAIM HIGHER Vibes …
Where TRUTH Is Expressed …
WITHOUT Facing Death … !!!

Now THAT CLAIM Has A DEBT …. !!!
They WON'T Want To Collect … !!!!!

I've Said It BEFORE … !!!
And I'll Say It AGAIN … !!!!!

The Threat of Such WARS …
Are Those With NO CAUSE …
And PRIDE FILLED NONSENSE … !?!

I'm NOW NOT AFRAID … !!!
Cos' I DON'T Like The STRAIN …
of …….. " IGNORAMUSES " …….. !!!
Trying To Mess With My Brain … ?!?

Now THAT'S Something I CLAIM … !!!
Pretty Much … EVERY DAY … !!!!!

Whenever My Pen...
And Wordplay Touch The Page … !!!!!!

It Dissipates......... Rage …................
That Dummies … inFLATE … !!!!!

Until Their HOT AIR...
Leaves Their CLAIMS …
….. Laid BARE ….. !!!

Some Show That …..
... " They're SCARED " … !!!!!!

And Just NOT Prepared...
For … Lyrical Wordplay … !!!
That Shows Where Me Dere' … !!!

UNAFRAID of The CLAIMS That Say.….
… ” Virge Should BEWARE ! " …

Because I CAN'T Hear Them …
From WAY.................. " Over There " … !!!!!

But Enough About Guys … !!!
What About … Girls … ?!?
Who Make LOTS of CLAIMS … !!!
About … " How Dem' Stay " … !!!

"I would never give him
the thing that he wants !"

"Okay babe, that's cool,
but, don't change your tune !!!"

That's Where It BEGINS …
But Then … LATER ON … !!!

"He REALLY Persisted !!!
our bond is SO STRONG !!!!!"

Now These Are The GLITCHES …
That Show Claims Belong …
In Those Who STAND BY THEM... !!!
Rather Than Take BACK-SHOTS … !!!

Sometimes It's Quite FRIGHTENING … !!!
How Claims just Get … DROPPED … !!!

As If They WEREN'T THERE … ?!?
And Went Up In Thin Air... !!!?!!!

Acting Like Children …
Who Know They're …
… " The VILLAIN " … !!!

When Evidence Leads …
To Things They've Been Doing … !!!

That Show That Their Movements …
Are NEEDING IMPROVEMENTS … !!!
And YES Some MORE Schooling … !!!!!

So Here's MY CONCLUSION …
On CLAIMS People Make …

For ALL OF OUR SAKES !

We Must STOP ABUSING …
... Each Other OKAY …. !!!!!!!!!

If Man TALKING STRAIGHT...
Affects Your Mind State … !!!!!

RELAX And Say...
... "Word Son"...
And Just Walk AWAY... !!!!!

Leave Man ALONE... !!!
And Deal With Your Own...
And Think On These Words …
That I Now … " RELATE " …

The TRUTH Sets Us FREE... !!!

And DOES NOT Concede... !!!
To PRIDE, Threats of Violence …
Or... " INSANITY "... !!!!!!!

It IS What It IS … !!!

DON'T Try To Flip Scripts … !!!

Stick To Your LOVED Ones...
And... LOVE THEM OKAY … !!!

Cos' it's Really NOT MAGIC …  
Just Ask … David Blaine … !!!

REMOVE LIES That LIE …
DEEP Inside Your Brain … !!!!!

And Show LOVE For Each Other … !!!
Cos' To Me … That's The Way … !!!!!

And Is Surely Something … !!!
That YOU Just Like … " I " … !!!!!
Should In TRUTH REALLY ….

.... " CLAIM " ….
Make sure you can, and DO, BACK UP what You CLAIM ... !!!

It REALLY Is...
An AMAZING Thing... !!!

To See How QUICK...
Some People SWITCH...
When PRESSURE Liks’... !!!

And NOT The Type of Pressure...
That Brings... BAD Weather... !!!

I Mean The Type...
That Affects Mankind... !!!
And Women TOO...
When They Switch Their Moods... !!!

In Times Like THESE...
Where A... VIRAL DISEASE...
Has... LOCKED DOWN Streets... !?!

It’s AMAZING To See...
How The LOSS of MONEY...

Has AFFECTED Heads...
Who CLAIM To Care Less...
About MONEY CHESTS And Bank Interest...

Because They SWITCH...
Like... IGNORANT Kids... !!!

When It Comes To CASH...
That They CAN’T Grab...
To Fulfil Their Plans...
To Do This And That...

It’s... Really SAD...
To See People Get MAD...
And... Start To Act...
Like An IGNORANT *****...
Who Is PRONE To SNITCH... !!!

Sometimes I DO WISH...
I Could Turn OFF The Switch...
That Inspires Scripts of Lyrics Like THIS... !!!

But The PROBLEM Is...
That It’s The Type of Gift...
That’s... HARD To Resist... !!!!!

When I Start To Think...
And Suddenly LINK...
My Thoughts With Ink...
Or Of Course... Typing...

Because of The SWITCH...
To TECHNOLOGICAL Things...
That Now EXIST Like This Virus Is... !!!

You See This Poetic Piece...
Has Been Inspired...
By The Things I’ve Seen...
Since This NEW DISEASE...

Has Started Putting OUT Fires...
of... Lives And Desires...

And BROKEN Dreams...
As Well As LIMITED Means...
of People Who NEED...
To Really Stay HEALTHY... !!!

Instead of Having To FEAR...
of Now Being TOO NEAR...

To... People Who...
Have Got THIS FLU... !!!

A SWITCH That In TRUTH...
Is Just NOT COOL... !!!
Because It’s Now REMOVED...

How We... TREAT...
The People We’d GREET...

BEFORE This Disease...
SWITCHED Societies...

To Be... DISTANCED Beings...
Whose Switch Is Leaning...
To... SWIFTLY DEMEANING...

... Historical Teachings...

Like Communicating...
WITHOUT All This... SPACING...
That’s Clearly FRUSTRATING...
A... LOT ot of Locations... !!!

Where They’ve HAD TO SWITCH...
Because They Were TOO QUICK...
To... RE-OPEN Things...

So Their Switch Now STINGS... !!!
And May Now Be Bringing...
A SWITCH In... THINKING...
As SECOND Waves...
Start To RAISE The STAKES...
ALL OVER The Place... !!!

Which Would Be A SHAME... !!!

Even Those Who CREATE...
Are SWITCHING In Ways...
That AREN’T So Great... !!!

Because They’re Trying To Play...
The Game In... NEW WAYS...

When Basically Things...
Will Remain The SAME... !!!

SWITCHING Up Names...
And SWITCHING Up Tracks...

Instead of Sticking To FACTS...
And NOT Trying To Act...
As If They’ve SWITCHED...
How It Is That They THINK... ?!?

I’m NOT Switching My Vibe...
From... REALITY Rhymes... !!!

Because... If The Cap FITS...
You KNOW You NEED To WEAR It... !!!

Because You CAN’T SWITCH Hit...
Like... BASEBALL Swings... !!!

Or Like Black Lives...
That Only Matter When We DIE... ?!?

By The Hands of A Guy...
Whose Skin Tone Is WHITE...
And Has POLICEMEN Ties... ?!?

That’s A SWITCH That MY MIND...
REALLY DOES NOT LIKE... !!!

What About Black Rhymes... ???
That DON’T Energise Vibes of Packing NINES...
And Running IGNORANT Lines About Gang Fights...
That SWITCH Like Tribes of The AFRICAN Type... !!!!!!!

That... DESTROY Lives...
And The Chance To UNITE...

I Mean... WHY OH WHY... ?!?

Do We SWITCH And Then DENY...
The TRUTH To Feed... LIES... !?!

In... Chatter That Matters...
About As Much As These SLAPPERS....
Or These... Young Gun Clappers... !!!!!!

Who SHOULD...
Choose To SWITCH Targets...
And STOP Being So HEARTLESS... !!!

And MAYBE Then Black Lives...
And The Minds of Whites...
Might SWITCH From Fights...
of The... RACIST Type... !!!

And Then Guys Like I...
WOULDN'T Have To Write...

About HYPOCRISY...
Within Our Human Breed...

Because We’d Learn To FORGIVE...
And NOT Have To Live...
Like Some Kind of SNITCH...

Who Is FAR TOO QUICK...
When PROBLEMS Persist...

To Start To TWITCH...

And Then SUDDENLY.....

........ “ SWITCH “.......
Well, one things fa' sure now, with all that this year of 2020 has brought, one of the biggest changes it's brought, has been the switching of peoples' priorities, and sadly, in many case, their attitudes towards each other !
Honesty comes in the form of two
Almond shaped eyes

In their deep blue ocean gaze
There is no room for lies

The storyteller who owns them
Is a man so integral and wise

I came to him looking for truth,

I left satisfied.
Honesty comes in many forms
Jacob Lyons Oct 2020
I’ve got my laugh and cheeky wink
But that’s who I am on the fifth drink
And at this point I’ll tell the truth
With so much time, we are the youth
So pick my mind, aim for the brain
Learn too much, I’ll be whom to blame
The feeling’s short, it’s feeling long
It comes and goes, an endless song
All rise for the National Anthem
Guilt free lies and mild tantrums
Give the opera, I have the phantom
It’s organized, but all feels random
Sometimes I’ll write to the melody of a song and spill out whatever words and feelings come out. I don’t know if this meant to be anything direct, but it’s how I feel
Big Virge Oct 2020
What’s With What Comes Out...
of These... NEW AGE Clowns... !?!

ALWAYS... Talking About...
OTHER Peoples’ Grounds... ?!?
In Some VAIN Attempt...
To AFFECT... The Drag Down... !!!

You Know What I Mean... !!!

The Type of FIENDS... !!!
Whose INSECURITIES Lean...

Like The... Tower of Pisa... !!!!!!
Because Their Demeanour Is NEVER Straight... !!!!!
But That’s OKAY Because NOWADAYS....
I Let The MONKEYS... Have Their SAY... !!!

And Then Just Walk The OTHER Way... !!!!!!
Because Their TALK Just Gets Cut short...

If They Act Like MORK'...
When Orson Called... !!!

Humble But CHEEKY...
When Things They Say...
Make Attacks “So Sneaky”...

That In The End They Walk Away..........

...... “ Quietly and Meekly “......

But The PROBLEM Nowadays...
Is That MOST Now... WON’T... ?!?

And That’s NOT A JOKE... !!!!!

They KEEP ON TRYING... !!!
To Act Like LIONS... !!!!
With... NO ROAR... ?!?

Because Their Course...
Is CONTINUALLY LYING To THEMSELVES...
About Their WEALTH And Mental Health... !!!!!!!!!!!

Whilst Assessing Yours As Being Quite Poor... !!!

“Your logic's not the only one !”

“Your point I’ve got and that is true !
But, let me tell you dude, you’re being rude.
My logic is at least, LOGICAL son !
While yours would appear to lack conviction ?”

That’s How I Now Drown...
The Sounds of Mouths...
TRYING To... Use...
What I Now Conclude...

To Be... “ The Drag Down “... !!!

To HURL ABUSE As If It PROVES...
That They ARE... " COOL "...
And Hold SMART VIEWS...
That YOU SHOULD Consume... ?!?

AGREE TO DISAGREE.....

Is Now My Speech... !!!!!
Which Hardly EVER... !!!
Seems To Reach...
The Minds of Peeps’...
Who THINK They’re CLEVER... !!!

Cos' It’s CLEAR That They’re BETTER...
Than The AVERAGE GO GETTER... !!!!!
Because The... “ Drag Down “...
Is What They’ve FOUND... !!!

Serves Their EGO And Their PRIDE...
Like Luis Figo Used To SUPPLY...
THOSE... “ Barca Guys “... !!!
From NOU CAMP Touchlines... !!!!

But NEW AGE MINDS Are Touched By Lines...
In DIFFERENT Ways When HIT By Designs...
That DEFLate The Games...
They’re TRYING To PLAY... !!!!!

of... “ Skirting Round “...
Words That SURROUND...
The Bed of LIES...
In Which They LIE...

Which Is NOT Wise...
And May Devise Their OWN DEMISE... !?!

These Days I Find SO MANY TRY...
To ACT As If They’ve GOT The GIFT... !!!

The PROBLEM Is Their Gifts Enlist...
SPREADING Things Where LIES Exist... !!!
And COWARDICE Instead of BOLDNESS.... ?!?

It Seems They Live INSIDE A Shell...
And CLEARLY Think That ALL IS WELL... !!?!

Well GOOD FOR THEM Is What I Say... !!!

But PROBLEMS Stem From Taking AIM...
At Those Whose Brains DON’T Entertain...
PRIDE Driven DISPLAYS Built To Save Face...

TOO MANY Are Doing THIS STUFF These Days... !!!

Playing ROUGH When They’re NOT TOUGH... !!!

Aiming At Those Whose MENTAL Guns...
Are QUICK To EXPOSE Those RUNNING Gums... !!!

Because Their Mouths EXCEED Their Clout... !!!

Which is CLEARLY WHY They Have To TRY...
To MESS WITH Minds... That AVOID..........
Being Clowned By Those Who EMPLOY...
The Kinds of Ploys That GIRLS and BOYS....

USE IN.......... “ PLAYGROUNDS "......... !!!!!!

So When They Make NOISE...
I RETAIN My Poise And Let Them ENJOY...

Their... Moment of JOY... !!!!!

Which They Seem To THINK... ?
Gives Them The... BIG WIN... !?!

When They Use Their MOUTHS...
To Attempt To INFLICT...
Some Kind of STING By YES Using...
What I’m NOW Naming...

........... As THIS........

... “ The Drag Down “...
An unfortunate part of dealing with CERTAIN, Poor Excuses for People, who behave in similar ways to, CERTAIN Presidents and World Leaders, right about now !
Steve Page Sep 2020
I love portraits with their lives showing
with honest endings
with tears not yet dry
torn by well intended lies
I hate pretence. Especially mine.
Erik T Blaze Sep 2020
Your
pathological
Lies

Will never lead
you to
the Truth
my friend

I say this because
I know

For many reasons
Impossible

Though my path
at the time..
was never that
Logical

For all I have
Is just a wandering Egø
but not many
PrOphETS to
find

So at best
I'm just a Prodigal Son
Who's on the
Run

Or just
An empty module
that's been
cast to the
Side

Therefore
now in which
was condemned and
condensed

Recompensed to
Repent

Fixed

In little pockets
of
Pride

So I guess that's why
I wear this fur coat
to favor me

Right?

Or so
it seems

Although it seems?

I don't believe in
Animal
Rights

Nah..

But that can't
be
Right

Maybe selfish
thinking?

Or maybe thinking
that it will keep me
nice and warm
Like

When the nights
are Cold

Or maybe if I pray
The light will lead
me to
his grace
I'm told

To many places
Untold

So I guess
I must check
or at least let
the man behind
the veil
Unfold

That which
I do not know

Or at least let
him place my soul
Placed
Back in the
mold

With no actions
or expressions like
a Mannequin

Then pray once again
on my knees and
believe

That he will one day
truly make me
into

A
Man
again
Jacob Lyons Sep 2020
Deleting conversations from my phone
Ashamed of how I acted 15 hours ago
Putting down the bottle and not because
I finished the drink and got a buzz
Don’t translate what I write to how I’ll act
Forget guilt, I’m the one who’s been bad
I want my conscience to feel more exact
More to myself, more to a matter of fact
I was gone, girl, but I’m not feeling high
I was at my mirror, rehearsing goodbyes
If time heals all wounds right into place
Then all this time is all I need to stay
