Supressed Auntenticity
Yep, I'm back again^^ this time, I'll tell you my fellow readers about my last thoughts....and I'm bringing a new piece of writing.... seems like I'm turning my livejournal into my writer's block lol, so be it 'cause I like it this way.
So...how to put this...I don't know, well it's just I want to express this oppression I'm holding inside, for not being able to be myself and be pushed away by some one else's ideas and desires... I think many of us have been through staff like this, so I believe there's many people out there that will understand what I'm talking about...you know, it's been really hard (no matter how emo that sounds...I don't really care) because it's not the same thing to be rejected by some society in general aspects, than to be rejected or nor accepted by someone close to you......well, my situation it's probably not exactly like that, more like I don't feel confident enough to be myself or to freely say what I think and feel. I feel my dreams and wishes are being suppressed by the cold comments I keep hearing for this people I'm talking about, not because they are specifically telling me I'm wrong, but because I don't feel in freedom form hearing so much criticism about the staff I like.
Well, that's the general point of my poem this time, I'm not expecting a miracle really or to change something by saying this, I just want to express this, because I think you've noticed by now writing is my personal escape from the world and the situations I'm sometimes stuck on. I also want to ask in the nicest way that nobody asks me anything about this situation, I honestly don't want to discuss this with anyone other than myself and the people I've spoken about, please just leave it like that and if you have anything to say, please limit to review my poem or say something about my writing, but please, don't ask anything else or push this thing farther away.
That's it, on to the poem, let me hear what you think about the title, I decided on this but I had so much ideas surrounding it that I'm not sure if this is the absolutely right for it...

Blinded Freedom
I'm so sick of your voice
I can't keep up with this lie
I keep struggling to free my mind
But you, you won't let me escape
You keep forcing yourself onto me
Why can't you see you are killing my heart?
You are just an egoist
You'll never let me express what I feel
What I think, what I want
I can't trust you my dreams, my desires
'Cause you'll crush them without looking back
You just think what you want to think
You see in me, just what you want to see
Why don't you stop and take a look inside
Maybe then you'll see what I'm really like
Your constant criticism
Makes me fade into a crushing surrender
Why don't you notice the pain that it causes?
Every word turns my wishes to ashes
You are crushing my dreamful heart
I can't escape this shadow of rage
Please, let me go
Let me open my wings and fly away
I don't wanna surrender to your blindness
You'll never see my true self
I can't scare this torment away
You have left an indelible scar in my heart
My truth will never reach you
You continue pushing me away
Scaring my dreams
Erasing my efforts
Crushing my freedom
Drifting my hopes
I keep searching for a way to reach you
But your closed mind keeps me apart
I can't find the key
To your approving smile
Why don't you think before you speak?
Your lips always say crushing things
Meaningless words come from your voice
You won't ever accept me
You will never see my true self
Your cold insults
Your frozen expression
Erases the hope
Disappears all the joy
This oppression won't leave my chest
I can't stop this pain from escaping
Into bitter tears
For every killed dream
Every time I see you I feel crushed
With every word I tell you I feel hurt
Please, tell me you love me as much as I love you
I can't forgive myself
Why won't you see me?
I always looked up to you
But now, I can't stop this burning grief
That's consuming my tired self
I want to show you the real me
But I know you will never understand
Do I have to keep pretending?
Do I need to keep betraying myself?
Is this lie the only way to reach you?
You won't open your eyes for me
Your forced chains won't let this agony fade
Your heart will always deny myself
I can't find a escape
I'm too afraid to face your control
I keep screaming inside
But my trembling voice won't reach you
Freedom, let me reach you
Please take this nightmare away
I don't want to lose you
But I won't lose myself for you
My spirit is melting in tears
My soul is oppressed by your blinded torture
Your wounding hand is tearing my dreams away
This invisible chains won't let me rest again
Freedom, let me reach you
Let me open the cage
Blindness, let me unfold you
Let me reach your hand
