Break
I am building the ground that I walk on one scoop of dirt at a time,
One boulder at a time,
I'll lay it out in front of me and pave it with my mind,
I'll jack hammer the bullies and lay signs for the dead,
I'm building a gateway inside of my head.
I have forever questions, I have eternal glow,
I feel forever alive separated from the know.
In the beggin,
in the cryin' and the pleadin'
in the heartbreak,
in the dyin' and the feedin'
I'm believin'
desperation, breathin, sweatin' givin'
crawling through the dirt, climbing up a mountain,
falling off a cliff, drowning in the ocean,
Break---
She's silent, i'm silent,
we whisper messages mentally, who are we?
I build my own roads, I make my own hills, I create my own mountains,
I struggle, and Break....
I'm taking a look back from the moment of my birth,
what I know for what I have unearthed,
people taught me motion, powered by my feet,
people taught me laws and I was settled with defeat,
stuck the cog inside the machine,
glowing lovely human being
stuck inside my mind a seed,
growing, hungry human being.
Feed me conscious, feed me power,
feed me with your grapes all sour,
I am building my bridges, I am building the air,
I am building my thoughts in a belly of flair,
SHOCK light in my system I see this in color,
Push cool in my lungs I'll feel it with lovers
manifestation, displacement, uncurdled and humbling patience,
sifting through the sand, pulling out the objects
defining all the objects, sharing all the objects,
creating all new objects based on they're belief in my conviction.
On your conviction..
BREAK--
we are silent, its silent,
we are broken and voilent
I build my own roads, I make my own hills, I create my own mountains,
I struggle, and Break....
I struggle and break and then I remake, all of these pieces are totally fake,
you see, you define, you listen, you decide,
I see, I define, I listen, I decide..
I am living, I'm awake,
I will struggle, and I will break,
I will hold solid and I will take,
I will soften, then I will break.
Swing seed in soil, from sound that's spoken,
create to break and never be broken.

Beautiful poetry and immediately feel that these lines are imbued with a special meaning! Thank you @soundlegion
Very nice poem and well written. I particularly like the line below. It amazes me your talent to write original work. Blessings to you my friend @soundlegion.
I like it, normally for me to understand a poem in English is difficult. because my language is Spanish and to understand the words it is not enough to understand a poem but yours flow smoothly and I love it.
Understanding this there is a lot of life in this poem!! thanks for share this blog!
Amazing words and lovely poetry. The artwork in the statue ia absolutely stunning.
I was swayed from the begining of your poem till the very end. Beautiful word usage and above all the pictures it left in my head were nothing but perfect.
