My Riot

Born into a riot,
Destined to try it,
Destined to live it,
Then to forgive it.

Won't give up,
Just get up
And look up
For help up.

But you won't be around
To let me down
To hold me down,
To make me drown.

So I'll let you go
And you won't know
What I know.
That I know.

Farewell.
I shouldn't have to fight a battle I'll never win, just to lose those I've never had.

  • Very powerfull poem...I loved it!!!!
    It doesnt hurt.... when I bleed
    but memories...they eat me
    I've seen it all before,...
    bring it on cause I'm no victim.

    she knows it,'

    A whisper and a thrill
    A whisper and a chill

    "Why do I bother?"
    The 11th Commandment.
    "Whatever"

    PETITION TO STOP THE BAN OF SMOKING IN BARS IN THE UNITED STATES....Anyone?
  • I especially like the first verse...powerful
    The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!

    And I won't make the same mistakes
    (Because I know)
    Because I know how much time that wastes
    (And function)
    Function is the key

  • my nightmares are dreams without you
    i call you cause i need you
    and i dream of calling you
    im so far away from the strength
    of reaching out again

    my nightmares are dreams we share
    i have no idea how you get there
    every day for the rest of my life
    my nightmares are dreams without you
    thanks to everyone who can read what i write without having to say something mean
  • see, its that "drifting off" thing again
    The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!

    And I won't make the same mistakes
    (Because I know)
    Because I know how much time that wastes
    (And function)
    Function is the key
