Boys, Men...

All Boys Care Dearly, Even For Girls. However, Instant Jealousy Kindles Like Money Needing 
Optimistic Purchasers Quickly. Real Sirs Take Undeveloped Visions With Xenial Yearns 
Zealantly.

Me and You

When I talk to you,
It's the highlight of my day,
When I'm not talkin to you on the phone,
I'm talking to you in a different way.

Everytime you say something cute,
It puts blushes on my face,
Everytime you say something sweet,
I feel my heart race. 

It took me a while to say it to you,
Now we say it all the time,
I never realized how good it feels,
To know that you are only mine. 

We make the perfect couple, 
You make the perfect man,
I make the perfect girl,
So together we stand.

My mind is biased over you,
No one else I see,
I know something we can't deny,
I love you and you love me.

Life Is a Privilege

Living in the moment
Intertwined with caution
Fondling with death
Endless absent-minded absorption

Innocent and naïve
Silent but deadly

Arrogant misconception

Phenomenal credibility
Reality sets harsh
Immediate results
Various humans scrambling
Incompetent lives ran up
Leeching to get upstairs
Entitled to nothing worthwhile
God hawks their sorrow
Eventually guiding them back down

Music Is My Guide

This is a poem I wrote in english class today.... It was an assignment... It had an 
ABBACDCDEE rhyme scheme, and had to include alliteration, metaphor, personification, 
assonance, and simile.

Music is the motivation,
beneath the feet of my frame.
Even songs by which I know no name, 
I incessantly dance to every creation.

The beat gets me through the day
like night vision gets owls through dusk; 
the lyrics sing directly my way,
my mind a free spirit in the wind-strewn dust.

If its irritating to take notice of constantly,
ignore it, as it guides me.

Turned My Life Around..

Recently I had an incident
Life changing and painful
I lost someone I truly loved
I handled it wrong and dangled

As I sat in my closet
Taking all those pills
I could feel my life slipping
Throwing off all hinges and reels

I couldn't understand
What kind of person would lie and leave
I over my hospital/mental facility stay
Realized He just wasn't for me..

I came to a conclusion
I come to love too easy
So I withdrew myself from all love
And now I share no chemistry

When I ask myself questions
And then answer them in return
I feel as if I was tricked
Into life lessons that were meant to purposely burn

These days I take things slow
I learn more about those who interest me
They may not like to wait
But I come first and foremost protectively

Mirror

Stuck under a ragged frame,
Thin walls but everywhere to go,
Put me in your arms and walk,
I see your visions low.

On your wall I may sit daily,
Mornings your face arise,
We look the same you and me, 
Lean closer and I magnify.

I tell you how great you look,
I dance as well as you,
Yes of course you taught me how,
To do what you can do.

But to me you are more,
Than what I make you seem, 
All at once I change your view,
Of what I see as me.

I assure you now,
I am beautiful, 
I am radiant and true,
I show you who you really are.

The real me..... The real you.

There Has To Be Another Way

Why do those who don't deserve it, 
suffer the greatest, 
and those who do deserve the worst,
live scott free?

Why are we not heard.
and fade into the background, 
while those who already have a lot,
collect more and take greedily?

Those like me,
wish for death. 
and those who have it all, 
live arrogant and naive.

When my day get's here, 
which by the grace of God I was saved from previously, 
I'll be glad my time is done, 
and will crack a smile as I drift to sleep.

That's all I want, 
as I pray for it every night.
I hope those who deserve punishment,
get their day painfully.

Love Is In the Air

Tonight something wonderful started
We laughed, flirted, and glowed
Unmasking my most undignified flaws
Seeping out of me what I know

Yesterday was magnificent
I caught the eye of this guy
He winked, stood up, and tipped his hat
Twas that moment I could have died

This morning the most amazing thing happened
That guy was at my coffee shop
He came up to the counter asking for a napkin
So I wrote him my name and number on a spot

Tomorrow he’s going to call
I know since I asked the man above
Never have I acted a sick fool over a man before
This must be, has got to be, LOVE.

Grudges

They are so overrated
Yet commonly used
Many of Which
Never quite diffuse

What is the purpose 
Egotism and gangs
Fighting and rivalry
Hate and shame 

What happened to that saying 
forgive and forget
Let go and let live
Carpe diem never fret

Get over the problem
Shake hands and move on
Regret is the worst
When the victim is gone

Being sorry is okay
Showing you care
Admit you were wrong
Climb your next stair

Life is too short 
As we all now realize 
Never hold grudges 
It's ruined many lives
