In this poem I use homophones.If you don't know,homophones are words that sound the same but look different.Not-Knot is an example.

I just need a break

All this pressure as if I was a heir

I need to stop the car with the brake

So I can have some air


I'm stuck in a knot

They want me to be a perfect knight

What if i'm not?

What if i just need a rest sometimes at night?


They want you to be perfect and plain

They want you to make peace

They want to control you like a plane

They want you to be their little chess piece


They don't want to put you to waste

They don't want anyone to stare

They don't want you in the water past the waist

They want to step on you as if you were a stair


They want to bend you like steel

They want to crush you with their shoe sole

They want to take everything from you and just steal

They want to completely take away your soul
