Be a Flower

When people stare you down just look around
always know you are watched from above 
with kindness and love always say a prayer 

to always take care of the ones who are
mean and crule don't let it become apart of
you when people say you won't make it you  

don't have what it takes you don't count  
just walk away as if you don't know what they
are talking about don't ever let them get to 

you stay on point as you always do keep a smile
in your heart walk with peace in the dark never
let them out smart you, you have the key to set

yourself free love yourself above the rest always
know when it's time to let go keep the sunshine in
your life and your days will always be bright.

Premium Member Skipping Stone

I was just thinking of my memories
The good, bad the happy and sad
The ones I wish I could forget
But never will
The ones I wish I could remember
But never can
The people I have loved and lost
My memories are full of people who shared my dreams
But found themselves lost in my nightmare
Though the nightmare was no less
Than a dream in itself  
As a stone skips across the water
Sometimes the emptiness overwhelms me
As the memories are close enough for me to taste.
Yet forever out of reach
Lost in the darkness created by my addictions
For my memories were too much to bear
And I just had to forget
The guilt of my own shame
And I was so confused that I thought the needle
Was taking away my pain
When it was the very thing that created it
As a stone skips across the water 
I ask of you dear Lord 
What am I to be?
He replied, “Mike you are the stone skipping out to me”
I don’t know exactly what that means
But I reckon someday I will
Until then all I can say
The Lord and I are skipping still
For everyday is a memory and tomorrow is a dream
And I am just a simple stone skipping down the stream

Act How

You can't change your past;

So stop worring about what people think of you.

Instead make your future, and act how you want people to think of you.


A Good Change

I once told myself that your thoughts is what tells you lies.
following my dreams.
im done washing my eyes.
growing up i felt so ugly with low self-esteem.
im beautiful because i made my dream.
walking by people back than that you see dont even notice you.
it's because you changed with the pretty in you.
yes i was stuck with lots of wonders of how would i ever show me.
i have man telling me now i see real and thats the woman we want to see.
i smile now because not only outside now theres so much beauty.
inside theres i gift.
a gift to let people listen to not only my words but dreams.
a good change is what i mean.

Movement

People come
And people go
But the ones who touched your heart
Are the ones you will always know

They may move on
They may pass away
But you can still remember their every memory
Even to this day

A flower will wither
A tree will one day die
It is because of these simple things
That I lay awake and sigh

They comfort my hope
And put them to bed
That is why fear
Is running through my head

The clock will tick
The clock will chime
But everything will fade
Our true enemy is time

So precious is every moment
Hold people close to heart
Because they won't always be there
They too will one day part

I Am

I am a dreamer
I know I am capable of greatness
But I am grounded in hesitancy
I am a listener, an observer
I take in the world before me
With open eyes and eager interest
I am an adventurer
I have the desire to try anything new
Even if it terrifies me
I am cautious because I am scared
Scared I might not like the result
Scared I'll fail...again.
I'm talkative, I'm a writer
Sometimes I need to be heard
Or just hear the sound of my own voice
I am impulsive and reckless
I change my mind
Sometimes too much for my own good
I am steady. I am strong.
I always make it through
Even when it feels impossible
I'm full of emotion
I love with my whole heart
And I do it freely
I forgive, I make amends.
It's heartbreaking to go to bed
With regrets or being angry.
I'm a believer in change
Not the kind politics brings
But the kind that betters you as a person
I am a lover. I'm a romantic.
Who believes in happy endings
And waiting forever for the right one
I'm a sister and a daughter
Who never feels quite adequate
When it comes to her family
I'm a people watcher
I can tell you more about someone then most
After watching them for just ten minutes
I'm a friend, I smile.
I hate letting people down
I'd do anything for someone I cared about
I'm a doubter. I'm a liar.
I doubt myself continually.
I lie to myself to make it easier.
I am me.
No one else can be me.
No one will ever really understand what it is
That makes me tick.
Don't try to...just let me be me!


Sounds of the Violins

Slow majestic sounds
Coming from all around
Flowers come falling down

The music that speaks to the soul

From dark to light
Making people fight
Turning it into something bright

The sun that shines down
Helps people of not to drown

Giving them something to swim to
Helping them come through

The darkness is gone
Then the violins break out into song

Love For the Lord

I know two people who had, 
but only one life to give; 
And it was so that Christs name, 
would surely always live. 
So that people in the future, 
would be able to see, 
That you can live for the Lord, 
and be happy and free. 

For we all were born into this world, 
and one day we all shall die; 
But this is no reason, 
to be unhappy and cry; 
For death is not the end my fries, 
but rather only the start, 
Sooner or later we all must die, 
and from this earth we must part. 

Now don't be sad for someday soon, 
we will all meet on high, 
where everyone is happy, 
no more tears will ever cry. 
For this is the promise and faith, 
I saw two Christians share; 
While at the same time in their life, 
Christs cross I saw them bare. 

These two people did everything, 
I saw in Jesus Christs name, 
And they didn't get caught up, 
in foolish worldly games. 
These people that I speak of, 
I knew them from the start, 
Grandma and Grandpa I love you, 
with all my soul and heart!

A Better Day

The lord came down from the mountain side. You could see the people tremble and the fear
in their eyes. The slates had been written to remember the unforgiven, as lightning struck
a mighty clash to signal everyone to clear a path; fore the almighty had arrived at last.
The lord spoke it's words as it echoed from the mist of the air. The sound of terror told
us to focus and keep in mind the lord cares. Like a man eater it had came, to revenge it's
holy name. The people yelled and screamed, bow down to the king. The lord unleashed  it's
anger of fire, while levitating it self  higher. The lord placed it's enemy at it's feet
and dared anyone to compete. The lord was not here to play and with state of mind it made
a better day.

Premium Member The Gift of You (Facts To Which I Believe)

Here are a few facts to which I believe
You must first come before you can leave

You must laugh to also cry
Many people live long after they die

The circle of life encompasses all seasons
Everything that happens, happens for a reason

If you never lose it means nothing to win
Crucifying Jesus is mans greatest sin

To truly change you must first regret
There is no truer love than that of a pet

With-in every heart is a blossoming seed
And love is something that we all need

The simple things should matter the most
There truly is a Father, Son and Holy Ghost

That the tiniest lie is the greatest sin
Everyone you greet you should greet with a grin


Satan attacks us through our mind
As ignorance keeps many people blind

The most heartwarming gift is one that is free
As the Lord loves you he also loves me

The thing I believe, I believe is most true
The world’s greatest gift is the gift of you


Dedicated to the reader. Never doubt
you are a blessing who deserves Gods
forgiving love.

Me

I hold onto things I shouldn't
I find it hard to sleep
I think way too often about things
Of all these things I surely do keep

Old memories
Good or bad
Happy or sad
I never let go

People around me
Friend or foe
Nice or mean
I never let go

Dark nights
Dreams or nightmares
Amazing or tragic
I never let go

I remember and hold tight to everything
I like to never forget people or memories
I wish others felt the same way about me
But this surely isn't true I now see

I am too different from the norm
I spend my time writing instead of partying
In every way or form
I don't want to be the norm

I like waking up in my own bed
The one cozy place I can lay my head
If I get so drunk that I can not remember a night
I get mad and in my mind I'll constantly fight

So I love being different
I love not being the norm
I love remember people and memories
I love, me

There Are People Out There

There are people out there

Written By Dean Masciarelli

October 17, 2009 (12:09pm)


There are people 
out there 

That are in the 
world today

That are a lot like you

But there are only a few

That make us want to 
get up every single day

Just so that we can spend 
some quality time with them

And it’s all because of 
there peaceful nature 

That they have a way 
of drawing us in closer

Because they are 
truly genuine
caring human beings

And that’s what makes 
them so special

Because they have a way 
of making us
feel like we really do matter
