My Revolution

My Revolution

A Poem by Brandon M. Whittaker
"

I was singing random words one day and I put together some lyrics out of my nonesenible rambling.

"
The fighting
The aching
The psychopathic screaming
The bleeding
The fleeing
My insides are leaving
My BODY!

There's nothing in this life that's worth
DYING OVER!
NOTHING CAN TAKE ALL MY PAIN!

This is my revolution!
This is where my resolve pushes through
I'll stand up, and face it
There is nowhere to run
This is my time!
REVOLUTION!

There's nothing I can do
My worst fears are coming true
Everything is spinning so fast that I can't breathe
The blood and the pain
The harsh words with no gain
There's nothing I can do to hide the shame!

There's nothing left of me worth
FIGHTING FOR!
NOTHING CAN TAKE IT ALL AWAY!

This is my revolution!
This is where my resolve pushes through
I'll stand up, and face it
There is nowhere to run
This is my time!
REVOLUTION!

This. Is. The.
BEGINNING OF THE END!
THE FIGHTING WON'T CEASE!
Is this
WHY WE STILL PRETEND!?
THIS WAR IS UNENDING!
Is this the
WORTHLESSNESS OF LOVE?
THERE IS NO SACRIFICE!
There is no
TIME TO LOOK TO HIM ABOVE
THE END IS UPON US!

This is my revolution!
This is where my resolve pushes through
I'll stand up, and face it
There is nowhere to run
This is my time!
REVOLUTION!
This is my revolution!
This is where my resolve pushes through
I'll stand up, and face it
There is nowhere to run
This is my time!
REVOLUTION!

Revolution!

This is intense Brandon! Wow..

It flowed well, and being that I sing
poems in my head as I read them,
I really beat with this -- quite effortlessly.

The content is dark and emotional --
definitely felt!

You should write more lyrics! You're quite good
at it! :):)

Will add more in a bit -- at work.
But for now - GREAT JOB!!

Amazingly powerful. I cant even begin to imagine the feelings that brought these words forth. This was an intense and striking outpouring of emotion that probably only you and those who have experienced things like you have could really ever really and truely understand. I've read your piece three times now in trying to write this review.. But it leaves me speechless. An incredible piece.
