When the Rabbit Heart Dies
Weaklings ? Our tolerance , a proof of our strength
Yet we are slaves , cuffed with the chains of masculinity
May I ask , what is the reason for our eternal silence ?
Will our voices never protect us , our lives lived with prudence
Must we sit tight and watch , only radiate our sympathy
Or revolt and tear down their ego and apathy ?
We are not sex toys to fulfill their pleasure
Nor maids to sandwich all that they desire
We’re the reason for your existence , yet your cruel touch
Our virtue does’nt lie in our vaginas , I’ll tell you that much.
We have cleaned wars , managed homes and raised sons
Do we not deserve any respect for all that we’ve done ?
We have waited too long , for what I cannot fathom
In this food chain , we’ve been thrown right at the bottom
Brace yourselves vile creatures , not ones that are true men
Our fury will retaliate , neither will we break nor bend
A day will come when our rabbit hearts die
Our feline hearts will roar and we too shall rise.
Go women (Y) *hoot hoot*
Thats refreshing to hear , especially because you’re a boy.
Beautiful and powerful, brilliant.
Thankyou. I believe women tolerate way too much
Beautiful, powerful, angry!! So glad Im not one of “those” men!
And I repeat , hatred makes me poetic.
Oh yes , that would be a slow painful death from me .
Well thank you hatred!!!! If there weren’t things for you to hate then I wouldn’t have such amazing poetry to read!
I kind of gathered that, but I think I’m safe from your slow, tortuous death dealing haha!
Hahaha , you are far too kind.
For now , I suppose.
You really did go serial liker on me , wow . Its really nice of you to read my work .
Oh I’m not done yet, I’m actually at work so I havent yet been able to read through all of them but I will I assure you! When I say you have amazing poetry I mean it! I read a lot of poetry on here and its not very often I find a blog where I want to go through and read every single poem. So I dont say it as a flippant, meaningless platitiude but as a genuine, heartfelt compliment! I am glad you found my blog because I may not have ever come across yours and that would have been a shame!
Whoa. That has got to top the best compliment . Its really nice of you to appreciate it so much . Even my friends haven’t read them all as compared to you ! Guess my stuff isn’t teenager material after all
I would say no, its definately not teenager material! There is a depth of understanding and wisdom in your words that is very rare for a teenager. Its obvious by reading your poems that you are highly intelligent, which is probably why you never really relate to others your age and hate most of what “society” loves. I guess thats why I can relate to your poems so much because I was very much the same as a teenager, actually Im still the same just older, wiser and slightly more bitter haha! Writing was my outlet and my escape to keep myself sane, I used to read college level writing in grade school like the “Divine Comedy” and “Summa Theologica” and I wrote a childrens book when I was 12. By the time I reached highschool I was well on my way to being an outcast. Anyway I’m not telling you any of this to be boastful I just thought if any of that sounded familiar to things in your life it would be nice to know there are others like you out there. I just remember feeling very isolated from people and living inside my own head most of the time when I was younger.
Probably explains why my friends don’t read them . I wouldn’t consider myself wise, don’t let the words fool you ! Wow , am I talking to my future self ? ( In a different gender of course hah ) Everyone does often blame me for being lost in my own world so I can relate to everything you referred to very well. Thanks for spending some time commenting , its good to have constructive feedback.
You are quite welcome, I was happy to take the time.
I think intellect (ones ability to know) leads to knowledge (the understanding of what is known) and through experience we gain wisdom (the certainty of knowledge). Experience doesnt always mean older either so its possible you may be wise.
Hahaha I would say more kindred spirit than future self, especially given the gender difference! I had a feeling you could relate and believe me, I still live in my own head half the time and people still dont get it. Somethings just dont change with age.
Dammit , I was hoping maybe when I get older Ill be able to stack these thoughts neatly like someone with OCD. Life is preposterous , I tell you.
Well , kindred spirit , its nice to have crossed paths with you
Same here! It restores my faith in the future of humanity when I meet someone with such understanding at such a young age!
