Who Am I

Who am I 

What do I believe is true 

Who am I 

When I see the truth 

 

What do I believe 

In this ordinary life 
Where the people are greedy

And they all seem to lie 

 

Where in the world 
Can I mend a broken heart 

And have it fixed 

With this emotional art 

 

The sea’s coming in

And the clouds start to form 
The people are running to escape from the storm 

 

And the sounds of laughter 

Echo in your walls

Do you still remember me 

Who am I after all

 

Oh but 

Where in the world 
Can I mend a broken heart 

And have it fixed 

With this emotional art 

 

And the sounds of laughter 

Echo in your walls

Do you still remember me 

Who am I after all

 

And I don’t care

Cause I don’t wanna fall
And the life I lived 

Will soon hit the wall

And all the guilt 

That always lines my brain
Will soon disappear 

Running after the game

  • What is left

    [This is a reposted edited version of a previous poem of mine.]

     

    when all we have is spent–

    what will we have left?



    people once before us–

  • down the street

    i walked down the street
    the streets i once used to know 
    filled with regrets and heavy with burdens 
    of what once happened here

    i walked down the street 
    a block or so down 

  • Dear god, am I real?

    I believe in god even though I may know he doesn’t exist

    I know the mountains were not formed by him

    Instead it is the science in the world

    The reason we are here in this moment
