I know this has no structure at all, I just needed a way to vent my emotions.
I was once told
That to do the same thing twice
And expect a different result
Is the definition of insanity
From this I took
That to do good
One must do bad
And that goes the other way.
I have done bad
And learned a lesson
To not do the same
And I acted upon it
My lies were clouds
That I have dispelled
My fears were my chokers
Which I have torn asunder
Through the crowd of people, I made my way
And jumped off a cliff
That brought me to life
And raised me up as I fell
I was returned to the ledge
And was happy as could
I thought I had done well
But only brought hell to myself
My angel hid behind something
Was it fear
Or disinterest
Perhaps disgust
But that matters not
She eluded me
Whether slipped or ran
It matters not
And now I am here
Breaking down in tear
Scolding myself for my weakness
Of a love I never meant to have
very nice poem! many a times, it's the fear --- fear of so many things --- fear of ridicule, fear of not being accepted, fear of rejection, which stops people, makes them hide away! Just my unsolicited 2 cents!
i like the opposites in the stanza:
Through the crowd of people, I made my way
And jumped off a cliff
that brought me to life
And raised me up as I fell
nice poem nerdomax.
although i think it does, in fact, have structure!
