Love Is

Love is a sugar cookie,
 Sweet and delightful

Love is a pillow,
Soft and fuzzy

Love is the internet,
It never ends

Love is a tree,
It keeps growing

Love is a knife,
It can tear you apart

Love is a drug,
It can be addictive

Love is…… Life

Just Because Im White

Just because I'm white
Doesn't mean I am nerdy
Doesn't mean I get straight A’s
And doesn't mean I wear glasses

Just because I’m white
Doesn't mean I’m always angry
Doesn't mean I like mayonnaise
Doesn't mean I don’t like rap

Just because I’m white
Doesn't mean I can’t dance
Doesn't mean I can’t talk to girls
Doesn't mean I’m rich

Just because I’m white
Why can’t we all just stop judging?
Aren’t we all one in the same?
Why do people stereotype? 
We are all on the earth
So why can’t we live as one?

Boy Scout Camp

I remember waking up  
To the sudden sense of fear
My camping bag was packed
I could sense what was near
The 3 hour drive 
Was a bit of drag
Where I would spend 5 nights
Saluting the flag
I was nervous at first
Didn’t think it was fair
But then I realized
I was under their care
And I felt safe

Memory Loss

Visions of illustrated forks 
Pointing your direction
To the far away mystic night
Where the werewolves howl
Guiding you to your room
Filled with lights and sorrow
The same fearful sound 
Of clicking, like an unwanted houseguest
Or a stray dog with no name
Piercing the hallow depths 
Of your pitiful imagination 
Let your cranium  run wild
And point you to somewhere new

I Am a Funny Guy Who Follows the Rules

I wonder what life is for
I hear the Foo Fighters live
I see flying cars in the future
I want to be a director
I am a funny guy who follows the rules

I pretend I am Taylor Lautner
I feel very happy with my life
I touch my driver’s license when I’m 16
I worry that I will die of early age
I cry when people screw up their lives with drugs
I am a funny guy who follows the rules

I understand the meaning of life
I say that you should believe in heaven
I dream that I will marry the love of my life
I try to do my best at school
I hope that I will make it through high school steadily
I am a funny guy who follows the rules

Stupid Fights

Thunder went off last night
It was in my house in fact
My sister and I were arguing
I was going to be attacked
We were arguing over the TV
To see who would get it first
I honestly don't know why
We both decided to burst
In the end, it was stupid
We could've worked it out
Now the TV’s taken away
Because we decided to pout

Hat

I got yelled at today
For being worn in the hallways

My owner put me away 
And I was very lonely
 
I was taken out hours later 
And given a lot of attention

I was happy as can be
To be finally out of detention

A Tribute To William Carlos Williams

I ate the rest of the ice cream drumsticks
I’m sorry, but I couldn’t resist
So cold, it melted in my mouth

I played on your computer today
I know you told me not too,
But it was so much fun, sorry

I broke your iPod yesterday
I dropped it into a bucket of water
I feel really bad, 
But I got a new high score on doodle jump

Road Trip

Drove across the state
To go on a date
Found her online
Her picture looked fine
Knock on her door
My mind starts to soar!
IT'S A MAN

What a Life

Floating on fluffy clouds
Soaring like there's no tomorrow
Entering the outer limits
Where anything is possible
Back to real life
I'm off the cloud
I'm on my pillow
And I'm wide awake
