3 poems. Puppet, Pushed, and Breath

Puppet

When I'm hollow in the garden it's easy for me to believe
This is not for me, a quitter, shameful at times it seems
Unreal, the power they hold, the puppets we are, the strings they pull
They wash over me, walk over me, watch like vultures
They awake from this fetal's rest torn and tattered
There is no tolerance for this mood, we push on for the better
For peace and happiness, mankind is not my dream but yours
Now walk with this gift, for we are not gods
But we have been touched by God, for this inner-sanctity
For this peace, it's a surreal fantasy but it's the truth we have known in our hearts, fear not for we are many

Pushed

I don't want to
God help me, I don't need this
You're my disease, you're my cancer
My sickness in life
My nightmare in sleep
Easy to get locked in
Belegerant fucker
I found my sin
I found again and again and again
And I don't want you
I don't want it
You're poison skin
Keeps pushing in
And i found strength
I'll keep fighting til I win
This isn't over til it begins
Every goddamn word a sneak attack
Ingorance is what we lack
I found this place
I own my birth-right

Breath

Memories in my sleep
I found an inspiration
I dive, so deep
This is crazy, fucked up
My God, life
I breathe
I see
Colors assaulting me
My lungs so scorched
By poison breath
But still I breathe
So constant
It's beating
There's a flow
In my mind
I can't wait
Anticipating
Breathe
My lungs so relieved

hi, welcome to bluelight

i just wanted to let you know that i have merged three of your posts so they will adhere to the forum guidelines , please take the time to read them, specifically this part:

4) HOW OFTEN CAN I POST?
In order to accommodate the many “poets” in our forum, please limit yourself to 3 posts on the first page. No one wants to open the forum and see one person’s name dominating the front page. Share the spotlight with others. We understand that from time to time, old posts get bumped up and it may put you over that limit, and we WILL take this into consideration. But 3 posts on the first page is from hereon our max, and if you violate this, your excess posts will be moved to the Deleted Messages forum and you will be sent an email asking you to repost it once you are below 3.

thanks
