Best Stick By Poems

When I gaze far off into the night sky
The chaos is not pleasing to the eye.
Seems there was never an overall plan
When the beginning of time began.

I don’t mean to sound so high and mighty
But the stuff up there’s not very tidy.
Yes, there are luminous...

(Chorus): Never thought I’d fall in love with my best friend
Sit on the phone and talk for hours about anything
He knew everything about me
He was there through my ups and downs
But I found out he fooled around
I’d never thought I’d fall in love with my...

A true friend will stick by you,
through thick and through thin,
They will help heal your heartaches,
and help when you sin.

A true friend will be there,
where ever you might go,
If you're ever in trouble,
they are the first one's to show.

A true friend will never judge you,
they...

What is a true friend in your mind?
Is it someone that sticks with you to the end of time?

Someone that’s honest and true to your face?
Someone that is your saving grace?

Or maybe the person that just lends a hand.
During a time of need and helped...

No, sir Atticus
I am not leaving
I am not like a beaver, who runs and hides
In the sight of danger
Who am I, you may ask
A boy who is older, and so much bolder
I will stick by your side Atticus
Sitting in that court room
Everything came to me...

I like being the guy no one can have. I’m strong for not only myself but for those who I surround myself with. I will not put up with people who try to push me around and tell me what to do. I’m my own...

Of all the treasures that life can lay at our feet
True friendships stand among the very best
To support you when living hands you defeat

Of your life's ups and downs they gladly partake
Taking your hand when you are hard pressed
Making their own  sacrifices just for...

Brother, you been stacking it on
stick by stick, building me a fire.
Child by child, taught to build a pyre--
keep us warm, hide from the cold.
	
Stares of hell that face your soul
huff by huff, puff by puff
shutting down the wants for food,
shutting down the wants for...

You sounded so lovely 
When you were a million miles away from me
You are the thorns on my side
My humility scratched away your pride

It’s a love-hate relationship frankly…honestly…

I still hold on to graceful loyalty
Because you make me feel this royalty
When deep down inside,
I feel like...

The
sun fills
dark outlines
in shades of black.
Stretched ebony shapes
that lie flat on the ground.
But tethered tight to your heels,
they stick by your side where you go.
Doomed always to be leashed underfoot,
shadows faithfully copy movements made.

Two-dimensional projections edge black
marking the boundaries of darkness.
Wakened by the first rays...

She was lost and so afraid
From decisions that were made
To go under a sharp knife
And change her quality of life
A very long time ago
That built up as she would grow
Never really fitting in
With woman parts under her skin
Feeling there was something more
She decided to explore
And...

The feeling of fear is so powerful/it can kill you/whether it's looking down on some heights/or showing someone the real you/lies getting justified/relationships getting nullified/just for the fear of stepping up to the plate/some of us don't want the truth/others are just fearful of being...

How long has it been since the stars have gone?
Where is my hope, my love, my faith, my light?
Why is it always darkest before dawn?

I'm the ugly duckling, I am no swan.
I hold unto your shadow in the night.
How long has it been since the...

What I love about my body

The freedom of movement my ball joints provide
My wrists, my shoulders, my hips just glide
If I tear my skin, it will reproduce 
It's tough, flexible and waterproof
I've got organs that filter toxins out
Vocal chords so I can sing and shout
The...

Walk your Line 

A word to the blind:
From the day your first mount and ride
Till the moment you die
Walk your line
Walk proud and high
Through each and every wreck your stride unwinds
Walk your whole heart
spine upright
till it breaks if you like
But drink the whole pint down
and...
