Best Back Up Poems

The undebatable policy
I put above any pride
Is I would rather be hated for honesty
Than be loved for my lies
'Cause see, to me in these matters
It is the sanctity of battle that matters
More than my love for the prize
I wouldn't call it a code of honor
It's just a part of the code I honor
And I'll admit...

To count where I failed you'd need more than two hands
If you focus on my mistakes as a boy, you don't deserve the new man
I fell short so many times, but I always got back up
I made it this far, so how can you tell me I'm not enough?

Born into a world of neglect and...

My dear friend has been fighting cancer for the last six months
so please say a little prayer for her





You can get back up again

Written By Dean Masciarelli

We all face challenges 
every single day 

Yet some situations
are
worse then others



So try not to let the
trivial 
things knock you down 


And if life try’s 
to knock...

Assimilate your view
To match the status quo,
Consensus starts to skew
Hypocrisy on show,
Now you seem the clown
The eager willing pup,
It’s not the beating down
But how you get back up!

A friendship ill-advised
Treacherous and vain,
Before you realized
They’ve dissed you once again.
Smile into a frown
Superior or sup,
It’s not the beating down
But how you get back up!

Alcohol and drugs
Became your...

I'm sick of being the back up friend.
The third wheel to your duo.
It's been like this since we were kids.
I know, you all have busy lives.
Do you think I don't?
My calander is covered,
And yet I still find time to see you.
Sometimes,
I go out of my way, to make it work.
I thought that's what friends did.
But...

Along the highways
There is the hustle 
       of traffic
Sometimes flow freely
There are occasions
When traffic is slows
Or just crawling by
Another reason accidents
Which also slow traffic
Cars change lanes
To get ahead on the road
Once the people get near 
         the scene
They drive slowly by
Gawking...

When it rains it
pours a double
on the rocks
just in case I
decide to jump....

When I was a youth
Rarely lied, to tell the truth
Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth

Fell down, got right back up
Instead of staying stuck
And not giving a f***
From dawn to dusk
Pushed my luck
Some of which took guts
Was broke thinking that life sucks
Until I started making a lot of bucks
Above the Earth's crust
Was careful with...

I wish I had a vision  

Of how my life would be 

Cause sure as hell  

This dead end job 

Is slowly killing me  

 

I thought I was a rebel  

I thought I was so cool 

Didn’t need no education 

Didn't need no stinking schools  

 

I was going...

Watch em’ Back Up
Look around
Locate 
round up potential prospects for interaction
Study
Who is real?
Not scared,
Doesn’t back up?
Radar on, I smell their fear
Of someone different
Who won’t back up?
Posers
Liars
Humans with an agenda unlike mine
Watch em’ back up
 Even the scary regulars who ride their bikes to their own personal stools
The group of beautiful people in their glass couch...

when all is lost 
it hurts depending on family and friends
stuck starting over from the bottom 
trying to work back up again
... 
with all my past experience
and for a man of my age 
being forced to work a kids position 
and must settle for miminal wage

i've worked all over the country 
done almost everything 
high...

Bad luck?  Bad news?
--Rage blindly
--Deny utterly
--Nosedive completely...

...Analyze deliberately
   Examine painstakingly
   Accept graciously...

...Re-invigorate, all the stronger for the experience!...

In your attempt to search me out,
To question my love through your world of doubt,
Turn around and look at yourself,
Because the feelings you have now you've already felt,
They were there before I even came,
Your just looking for someone to blame,
So when I decide to walk away, 
Your left with the same feelings of yesterday,
When honesty...

Trapped in a world of pain
Shackles of emotion keeps IT tamed
IT wants so badly to be free
But the people cannot let that be
IT stares into your heart 
Makes you quiver in fear
IT dreams of victory, but
no-one can see IT
ITs journey is coming to an end 
IT wants to be free 
IT sees the light and...
