Everyday life is peaceful,
Heroes appear make it better,
Many places needed a kind heart,
Anonymous people showed up,
Friendly behaving like an angel,
Spreading positive energy,
Planting a seed of love,
Without return,
Hope kindness all around the world.
Doctors help us to stay healthy,
Firefighters save us from death,
Still more anonymous efforts,
Keeping us together as a family.
Parents give a...
Always hiding behind a mask
Hiding your identity, no longer a harrowing task
Nobody knows you truly
You can run rampant and unruly
Say anything you want
You can brag and flaunt
But is it the right thing to do?
Even if they don’t know it’s you?
Criticisms you spout
But will you begin to doubt?
What if they knew it was you?
Would the things you say still be true?...
You don’t know who I am
Even though I wish you’d see me
I want to get to know you
Learn the way you do things
I’m too afraid to speak up
So I’ll probably lose you
If only you could see the real me
Know that I’m worth the hassle
Maybe this could be His plan
For the two of us together
But we’ll never know if we don’t try
And I’m too afraid to say a word...
I hold a fickle hand
With little else but judgement to pass.
Not the kind which is dutiful
In nature, fulfilling the purpose
Of justice - no, this kind
Is much cruder, idealized
To my own whimsy,
Reacting instantaneously
But no less solid.
My trespasses need
No forgiveness;
They lack a name
To attach their sentiments.
My conscience couldn’t
bear the vitriol of the words I used.
Freedom from acc...
Knock knock,
“Who’s there?”
A list of names
Of those who care.
Your can of worms
Feel empty and dark
But people are waiting for
Your invite to your heart.
“Let us in, Let us in!”
“Not by the hair of my chinny chin chin”
So you huff and you puff
And blow the whole world out!
Anything to prove there’s
No rain in this drought.
Ears perched like a wallflower;
The world isn’t as dark as it seems.
Th...
What’s happened to our world?
One lost,
One gone.
I don’t know what’s happening anymore.
I’ve come and gone
I’ve left and stayed
I cried a lot today.
I’ve questioned a lot today
It’s horrible what’s happened.
Friends are disappearing fast
And I’m scared.
Something pulling me back down.
Something is taking me to the place I’ve been struggling to escape
For the last half a year.
Can you be...
I’ll never show you out,
Too much info would lead you back to me
That’s too much to think about
Wear the mask and cape so I ain’t freaking out
Unbreakable in disguise, the man in the mirror even Micheal can’t recount.
Mf will never see the real me, catfishing to survive, society will make a mf lose what’s inside. No shield can protect me, so I run and hide. Words distracting from the imposter ...
In shadows deep, where faces hide,
Anonymity becomes our guide.
No names to speak, no faces known,
In anonymity, we find our own.
Silent whispers in the night,
Anonymous voices, out of sight.
A secret world, a hidden game,
Anonymity, our shield from fame.
Unseen, unheard, yet still we thrive,
In anonymity, we come alive.
No judgments here, no eyes that pry,
In anonymity, we can fly.
A mask we w...
