I first got into writing poetry through a friend of mine, who regularly use to make me read his poems. He inspired me to start writing some of my own poems. After writing my first poem i liked the many different ways to express what i am trying to say. So i carried on with it, using it as an outlet on what i want to say but have trouble saying it directly to people
As I lay eyes upon the lady of the fountain
A tremendous work of art standing to this day
Holding the hopes and dreams of people
Flocking towards her everyday
...
The weight of responsibility
Lies heavily upon my shoulders
Trying to collapse my world
By bringing it crashing down
...
Slowly going insane
No one to talk to
Bottling up my feelings
Slowly turning to stone
...
Tired of people taking advantage
Tried to make people happy
But wasn’t successful
Every method taken backfired
...
The first shades appear noticed
Obvious as the sun and the moon
High above the grounds of the earth
Nature taking effect at its worst
...
