Thoughtcrime

I can’t help it,
I must think it,
I know it’ll get me killed,
I can’t stop it,
I say down with Big brother,
I know it’s a crime,
But I can’t stop my thoughts,
Is there something wrong with me?
Big Brother must die!
I know I’m going to get caught.
I’m going to die.
I want to live,
But I just can’t stop!
Down With Big brother!
I can’t take it anymore,
I’ve become a robot,
Saying the words makes me feel alive!
I’m going to die!
But at least,
At least I feel alive once again.


The author's comments:
This is a poem based off from the book 1984 by George Orwell. Its based off of Thoughtcrime in the book and how some of those people feel repressed.
