The innocence of goodbyes - Poem

I stood by you when you needed me,
I saw what people refused to see,
I tried to be who you wanted me to be,
I only asked just one small fee,

Believe in me, follow the truth,
Stand by me, when I need you most,
Don’t forget me, and hold me close,
Remember times, remember me,
I never changed, and you will see,
You know I’ll fight, right to the end,
But even from you, I will defend,

To love the past, is to not move on,
I see the light, I’m not forgone,
I’ll say goodbye, to the one I knew,
A smile a kiss, I give to you,

I’ll always be there, to defend my kids,
I can’t do that now, so blame the pigs,

The tall lady in blue with the iron fist,
Who’s mind is made up and can’t resist,
She looks at me with her steel eyes,
If I’m put away there will be more cries,
The person who did it, is still out there,
But YOU got your victim, and you wont care,

So that brings me to the right and wrong,
If you’re sworn to protect, where has it gone?

1984 Poem

A poem about the book 1984 and how I see it starting to become a reality here in our time. Its more a thought poem and I know it needs work but I was inspired by a image I looked at, and wanted to write something.

He’s watching, planting the seed in your mind,

Sprouting the thoughts, controlling mankind,

Big Brother it watching, don’t step out of line,

There are no victims, just a product of design.

Nothing to want, no need for greed,

Just bettering the system is your only need,

They think of no future, and forget all the past,

To be of no value, always wanting to be last.

Start to think of yourself, and you have to go,

Wiped from the system, just a blip or a typo,

You live for no regrets, life isn’t diction,

Now wake up my dear, this is not fiction …
