You Know What’s Bothered Me? People Viewing Our President As Some Sort Of Celebrity. Especially Someone

wisdom can be taught, but it can only be learned

some things are,

better left untold,

im too old for feelings,

and feelings have gotten too old,

i dream of dreams,

and im dying to know,

what they mean,

or what they hold,

for he was a silver boy,

and all she craved was gold.

the world is littered in gold, you just gotta know where to find it

Why fight for someone who wouldn’t fight for you?

just do something you idiot

i'll give it to you later,

I promised i'd do better,

we act like we are strangers, when we aren't together.

should I call now or later?

I'm struggling on paper,

the only thing that changes her mind, is

the weather

so I'll create lightning,

and destroy the things I'm fighting,

I am no longer hiding,

this storm deep inside me.

Yes, my argument is flawed by my emotions, I didn’t necessarily mean I never had the opportunity to vote for a candidate of my standards. I’m just saying that the candidates didn’t meet my standards. I appreciate you for expressing your opinions and keeping me in check. Good luck to you.

You know what’s bothered me? People viewing our president as some sort of celebrity. Especially someone that says they are a “fan” of a presidential candidate, just doesn’t sit right with me. These are real people governing our country, not a fucking magical being or a movie star. Politics nowadays is damn reality tv. This country is as mature as a high school, and the popular kids are fighting for control. I’m not religious much but this is what god means by “false idols”. Also, the fact I’ve seen people bet on the election or talk about it like it’s some sort of sporting event is quite outrageous and unsettling. This isn’t entertainment, this is supposed to be a commitment to democracy and creating equality and fairness in our country. It’s about making the proper changes to help better mankind and American lives. I think we need to start somewhere new. Our lives don’t change with a presidential election, change occurs within ourselves. It’s our mindsets that are hurting us. For the next four years we live with a decision, and after that, the same thing. That’s how shit works, and not everything goes your way sometimes, but that’s how life happened to turn out. It’s hard for me to trust anybody that worships a “presidential candidate” or obsesses over the idea of the election. All we can do is control what we do and how we act. We can’t better the world until we better the people that are capable of changing the world. Change is necessary, without it, we wouldn’t adapt, survival wouldn’t be possible, and evil would persist. Fuck trump and fuck Kamala. I never chose them as my candidates. Who said anybody is worthy of such a position of power anyways? But if you really are into politics and support someone, I get it, you’re doing all that you can do by voting for what you believe in. And I commend you for choosing that decision. Just remember there are more important things to consider than to obsess about your favorite “candidate” on your free time. And for the love of god, stop dividing this country.

Would you do it all again?

Would you tell me that you love me?

If time was running backwards,

Would you do it all again?

cardboard boxes,

felt more like home,

always running,

from things i don’t know,

in the backseat,

everything i own,

call me crazy,

but i feel so alone.

and i can’t decide if i’m,

living or if i’m gone,

there’s a ghost living here,

and i take him everywhere.

Burnt cigarettes,

Count my frustration,

My lungs, my ashtray,

My heart, it’s all failing.

Coughing up swallowed words.

Better late than never, I guess…
