when life was priceless
didn't know what price was
or cost of living
now I can't unplug nor unseen
what I've been seeing
stressing about rent
when I was born for free
living in a perfect pigment
of my moms sperm
and fathers eggs
scratch that/reverse it
same flow/ same distance
ride these melodys
to feel my blood pulsate
chaotic in breath
so I hold oxygen in my pockets
keep it close
oh I keep you close
each time I struggle
you the diamond of oceans
ain't shared it lately
but you been knowin
now we sit here finally
face to face
watch the world melt away
to reveal the colors
you keep inside
how's it feel inside?
you still got hate ?
or you freed your heart now moms?
How's life ?
You know that bet we made?
I hope you win it.
I'd die to free your stress
no lies, no gimmicks
and I know you see me as ungrateful yes.
but I just ask for respect
how's a kid supposed to build with no esteem
given?
learned it from these crowds
that grace me with they presence
no hate though, maybe that's just how it was
written.
lots of things I'd like to say
and unsay
do and undo
but you know that.
well, I wrote this poem
to express how I've been feeling
blessed yet empty
hungry yet full
loved yet malnourished
but maybe it's just me.
anyways I wish you love and peace.
so peace.
