It Doesn’t Matter

It doesn't matter if it's green or blue
All that matters is that I have you
Black or white, red or yellow
Whatever it takes to be your fellow
I'll learn to read, I'll learn to write
To send you letters, day and night
Even if it means I must buy a bird
I will do anything to give my word
I'll find a mailman, I'll send a dog
I'll float down a river attached to a log
Whatever it takes to make you feel grand
Or as good as I do when I hold your hand

"A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way"
-Plain White T's

I Didn’t Say Goodbye

When you died
I did not cry
Not a single tear
Fell from my eye
I ask myself every day
I ask him why?
I miss you
And I'm not going to lie
I hope you're in heaven
I hope that you can fly
I didn't say goodbye
I don't think it happened
I will always deny
I hope you get your favorites
I hope you get pie
I hope you're in the sky
I hope you get your retry
Whatever it takes
You'll overcome and defy
All those who made you shy
All those who caused you to sigh
All those who made you a small fry
They're below you while you are up high
Whatever you do, don't comply
Don't try to satisfy
Don't try to gratify
Don't try to simplify
Be yourself
Someone will help you untie
All that has made you feel wry
Well, that's all I got
I'll visit when the snow melts in July

Tears

Tears are my weakness
If I cry I am no man
If I don't I burn

They cut as they streak
Down my face as I now leak
The blood of sadness

Don't know the feeling
The release, the revealing
It's the letting go

I can't here or now
I must flee to keep my pride
If I don't I die

The embarrassment
The frustration on myself
All the emotions

They come down flooding
Wreaking havoc everywhere
I just can't stand it

One drop is a flood
A flood is a tsunami
A tsunami kills

No more social life
No more talking to my friends
No more showing me

There is no more me
I can not let this happen
You will not know me

This is not my me
This is the me just for you
I made it special

It won't say feelings
Don't worry about drama
This is all an act

Not an Ode to Fall

Some seasons are amazing
Some seasons always stink
Some seasons are mostly known for a drink
Fall is just boring
Mainly from that school
There’s no swimming at the swimming pool
Winter is more fun
Playing in the snow
Fall can be fun by making pies out of dough

A Prayer, a Poem, or Whatever This Turned Into

Tears are the prayers that can't be spoken
Love of God is love the can't be broken
Dreams are wishes for God to see
Thoughts are ways God talks to me
The devil can talk through thoughts too
Baptism makes those thoughts anew
Confession clears those thoughts of grime 
But you must clean them more than one time

The devil isn't all horns and fire
He shows up as whatever you desire
He floods your brain with pride and power
He won't stop until there is none to devour
He'll be a dream, whatever you need
He'll give you everything, fill you with greed
He will take when you are at your lowest
He'll catch you when you are at your slowest
There is only one thing you need the most
It is the father, the son, and the holy ghost
Only those three can stop you from sin
They always conquer, they always win

Now I sit here, thinking about these verses
Is it a prayer to God, or the devil's curses
Is it a plea for help, or a cry to God
Is it a real feeling, or just a facade
I want to say a prayer thst can't be spoken
I want to, but there's a streak that can't be broken
I can't let a tear slip even for my own good
Even if I'm trapped on some piece of driftwood
Even if a bomb would blow me to bits
Oh homework oh homework you're giving me fits

Nature's first green is gold
But this green is getting old
The leaf subsides to leaf 
So Eden sank to grief
I can't  have my way
Nothing Gold Can Stay

And as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame
There is not a chance he could 
Stop and take the blame

O Captain, My Captain
I wish you were here
The ship is anchored safe and sound
We miss you very dear
The end is near
Trumpets I hear
The angels all exalting

Once upon this midnight dreary, I'm feeling lost, weak and weary
I feel sick in my stomach waiting for more
My time has come, I hear the knocking at my door
But there's just some bird there saying, "nevermore"

What I Want

I want to hold your hand when we walk
I want to need to stop just so we can talk
I want to lose all my sleep thinking of you
I want to experience something new

I want to go with you to the park
I want to dance with you in the dark
I want to sing with you in the rain
I want to make an unbreakable chain

I want to make you smile and laugh
I want to be your other half
I want to talk to you for hours
I want to bring you bouquets of flowers

I want to make something last
I want to not regret the past
I want to see you every day
I don't want you to move away

I don't want to see you leave
I don't want to just believe
I don't want to let you go
I just want you to know…

Work

The breaking of sweat
The burning from my muscles
Work gives me comfort

It’s not Worth It

Everyone wants a hand to hold
And a shoulder to rest their head
But later it will leave you cold
Late nights just crying in your bed
In the end it's not any good
At this young age there is no point
Try to avoid it as you should 
It will always disappoint
Please avoid all the temptations
It is okay to like someone 
To give someone admirations
To show a bit of affection
But don't go saying you like them
You won't get fat off of the ground 
It will feel like they are the gem
But you will still need to be found
It won't work out like usual
Late nights, ice cream, and movies
You will lose every bit of fuel
Others might like to disagree

My Favorite Dream

You are a dream I wish I could see
A thought that I wish we could be
A love that could never be broken
But alas, we have never spoken

We held hands when we walked in the park
We watched movies and laughed in the dark
We made cookies covered in frosting
We went on a run, that was exhausting

I smiled when you painted my nails
You laughed at all my makeup fails
I got hungry when you ate my fries
I got lost when I looked in your eyes

You liked it when I bought you that mug
And when you cried I gave you a hug
Then you let out a beep or alarm
I was only hugging my empty arm

My Fears

I'm afraid to look into your eyes because I might never look away
I'm afraid to be with you because there might never be a better day
I'm afraid to see you smile because I won't ever see a better sight
I'm afraid to talk to you because I will want to talk all night
I'm afraid to see you cry because I will never see water the same
I'm afraid to see you frown because I will just use myself to blame
I'm afraid to hold your hand because I may never want to use mine again
I'm afraid to write your name because after, I could never use a pen
I'm afraid to hear your voice because I would never want to speak
I'm afraid to be in your presence because you might see me as weak
I'm afraid to see you leave because I will cry an ocean
I'm afraid to see you leave because I will show all my emotion
