I want to know what a lifes like.... (Free verse) by Damien
I want to know what a lifeâs like
Where Iâve got memories to the left and love to the right
Where I can walk forward barefooted and not be scared
Or walk backwards blindly still knowing whatâs there
Where trying to kill myself is not a monthly bump
Like jumping off a bridge hitting the bottom before I jump
Or doing something right being nothing but a crime
In my room on my own, the wire might not snap next time
So I dream of a life where everybody smiles
There is no such thing as inner pain or âtrialsâ
Where I can fly without needing physical things
As my mind does the work for the illusions it brings
Where fortune and love are a monthly bump
Like jumping off a bridge only getting a lump
Or doing something right as its always the time
With the only way to preach is to speak through a rhyme
So when/ if I get there I will inform the earth
That anyone can do anything after birth
When I tell you what has happened to me
Will you then please leave me alone cant you see?
That I canât handle this mere fame for fee
Because when I get there if nobody has a smile
I donât care; itâs been worth my while
