Bad Influence Am I

i am more than crazy
enough words can explain
i let myself break me
and there is nothing that i gain

it could be, that i didn't speak soon enough
either that, or i complained too much
i let the wrong things get to me
i didn't focus on the right stuff

i should have been more insightful
i should have been less spiteful
and cared more about the people around
i should have cared less about the things meant to bring me down

Hurt Unintended

I don't want to
Hurt anyone or start any civil wars
I'm abstaining from posting
certain thoughts on Facebook
And do or say anything that will cause alarm...

I just need an outlet
That doesn't drain my brain
I know I have some talent
I can't be that completely deranged

I don't want to
Take a dump on any sites
Unload a feeling of blahness
Commit any crimes
I just want to be honest

And say what's on my mind.

First

Do you remember
the day we first kissed
the day we first held each other
how we gazed into each others' eyes
how your caress made me shudder?
Our hearts beating so fast,
they couldn't beat any harder
how our lips gently locked
not really knowing how it started
Our embrace was soft, passionate, warm
No x-rated mess here
I never wanted that night to end
You forgetting was what I feared
I was so young and you were just slightly older
I didn't let you cross the line
I wanted what we had at the moment
to be so much more

Seeing Is Deceiving

i feel so ugly inside

it feels like i lost my mind

it feels like i'm so mean and dumb

i don't even feel like i'm someone


i'm a monster at my best

creating yet another mess

lying, cheating, causing stress

hating, deceiving, unfriendliness- nahh


for my troubles, i have only myself to blame

it's all in my head, i'm the only one playing

but this is life. this is not a game.

i'm so gullible when you start naming names


for seeing your mistakes, i'm obviously deranged

psychopathic and out to blame

clueless in a life so perfectly sweet

it wasn't my fault people saw you two meet...


my troubles are small, but i want to say something out loud

keep walking around all haughty and proud

get caught up and tangled in your pleasure

cheating will help you lose, what it is that you might treasure

Accept This Present

Instead of dwelling in hate...
or craving any revenge...
I'd rather just live my life and accept
The past, Present and the future ahead

Thank You For Poetry

I'm not the only one Who can write poetry or sing songs I am glad there are many others Who sit in thought and wonder escape from the stress they're under reflect or simply write what's on top of their mind Poetry isn't very hard to find Poetry is awakening, poetry is alive New inspirations start coming to life Poetry is sensitive, poetry is wide There is nothing in their heart, that a poet can't hide Poetry can be about anything or nothing at all It can be non-sense, a silly haha A smile, a tear, a feeling of confusion Life, fact, fiction, dreams, delusion I want to say once more, how glad that I am That I'm not the only one to pick up paper and pen

Over This Time

My words have the power to break
careless words muttered could make
such a big difference in a person's life
but I never thought twice...
I still said what was on my mind

I still asked questions
I couldn't stop stressing
it was because of everything I did find
I needed the Truth
That is the reason why I questioned you

I was hurt and asked you upfront
I needed to confront my mind...
I had to face my doubts
I couldn't take any more lying

I might be stuck on my man
I'm not going to let myself be stuck on that time
I need to move on for our kids
I have something better to focus on- Life

Words also have the ability
To bring people up and save lives...
To express support for a loved one
and saying something heart-warming or nice

I'm sorry if I really made you scared
I'm sorry if I made you cry
I couldn't see things for my own self
I didn't know who's words were lies

Only One

This life of mine is only one I have only one to live This heart of mine is only one I have more love to give I do not mean to judge so quickly Or speak such harsh words I have to keep my mind and heart more open Especially when I'm not sure I search for Truth and Understanding Only to be stifled with confusion This life of ours is so demanding Not everything is an illusion Life is Life, which is real Each has a heart and everybody feels

Only Human

i have been a fool
i have done some foolish things
i did let negative thinking
get the best of me

i said some things
that now i really regret
i didn't give myself a chance to think
careless words are hard to forgive and forget

i shouldn't have been so mean
that's the mistake i usually make
i shouldn't have gotten angry and screamed
why did i have to think thoughts so toxic?

why did i have to be so foolish
and say those foolish words
why did you have to be so foolish
and do things like a regular jerk?
