Take My Arm
I’m hoping that there never comes a day
We end up forced to go in separate ways
Not long ago, I never would have known
How much you’d mean to me and just how much I’d grow
My heart is on my sleeve, please take my arm
In this cold hard world I’ve never felt so warm
And if in time you feel you have to leave
It’s yours to keep cause being close to you is all it needs
In spite of battles that you’ve had to face
I found peace in you, retained with grace
And it didn’t take me long realize
That home away from home inside your eyes
While what I’ve got to give may not be much
A shoulder, an ear; a gentle touch
I pray that some day you might come to find
A humble hide-away, returned in kind
My heart is on my sleeve, please take my arm
In this cold hard world I’ve never felt so warm
And if in time you feel you have to leave
It’s yours to keep cause being close to you is all it needs
In this day and age
some might say
it’s a projection
of my objective
That can’t be true
cause I never knew
what could be
since you’ve awakened me
My heart is on my sleeve, please take my arm
In this cold hard world I’ve never felt so warm
And if in time you feel you have to leave
It’s yours to keep; it’s yours to keep.
A DREAM IF YOU WILL
When we open our eyes to the world we can see her beauty everywhere.
from the colors of the trees to the birds that populate the air.
When we open our eyes to the world and see the beauty she imparts
We can’t help but feel joy in our souls and love within our hearts
When we close our eyes to the world…some of her vibrancy fades away
We begin to see the colors around us in quite a different way.
When we close our eyes to the world…we no longer see the beauty she imparts
We allow prejudice to touch our souls and hate to invade our hearts.
I believe our eyes all start out equally…free to see beauty everywhere…
urging all of us to feel the joy…and love that floats upon the air.
Sight is a fragile sense, however…and so easily we can lose it
depending on those around us…and how we’re taught to use it.
But even if we’re taught in such a way our eyes become impaired…
There is a silver lining…for sight can be repaired.
Which leads to a hope…a dream if you will…that one day all our minds will be free
that prejudice will fade into the past…when we are again taught how to see.
When we again open our eyes to the colors all around us
again look out on the world and see
the beauty in our differences…
the beauty in our diversity.
The Perfect Ones
Folder:
Poems. Be wary of the perfect ones. The ones everyone likes, whose enemies consist only of narcissists, they know how to blend. Be wary of your affection for them, as they draw it out of you with their perfect skin. Be watchful upon where their eyes trace, as they laugh and sing, and cry and shake. Their traps are skillfull, unnoticed and strong. They draw you in, like a perfect little pawn. They paint it with comfort and a warm embrace, only to find yourself alone in this place. The wonderment smashes upon you, how did it end up like this? With nothing to go on, you're lost in an abyss. Emotion, the pain, you feel it to your core. Your love for them, unreciprocated, leaves you with a desire to want more. But as the pawn wears out, they toss you aside, to find another, after cutting their ties. Intricate, the game, these perfect ones play. Complex, the emotions, you struggle to remain at bay. With a screw in your head, that they've placed inside, life feels empty when they vanish on high.
Leaving
Passion
Thrashing
To grab you
My future
Our culture
Combined, intertwined
Meant to be
You and me
You left
It's for the best if
I jumped off a cliff and
Ran away
Go away
Emotions canned
Love is banned
I need you
Come back
Love is what I lack
When the Night Falls
Folder:
Favorites The night falls,
A lost sould finds peace,
In a blaze felt by all,
The heart comes to tease.
We found where we are,
In the wake of lost hope.
We battle through our scars,
And fight the slippery slope.
A struggle with the pain,
As you become an unknown champion,
A fight begins in vain,
Fearing the sting of a scorpion,
Through sorrow we find ourselves,
As the waves crash,
Our feelings on the shelbes,
We start again from scratch.
cancer kills
All alone with the voices inside of my head. ill put my pride to the side and write it out the rest.
I hate how cancer kills the one you love and not the one you hate instead.
it puts you through so much pain, id rather see hell, face my demons and be better off dead then to see another loved one go through that again.
Your body is eating you from the inside out and theres nothing you can do cry and take pain meds.
losing hair and weight at a fast scaling rate. worry and confusion, i swear this all feels like an illuision.
sitting alone in my room every night thinking why didnt they take you. (maryanne)
they didnt take the right one, and now its fucking me up in the head.
trying to sort this shit out like why god?
why take not her instead..
take the crackhead.
not someones mother, a family friend.
but you cant pick and choose
so let me cry and lay in my bed. Wishing i can see you again and tell you all the things i never said.
see your face and tell you that i love you, and thank you again.
youre in a better place, with danny. so atleast youre happy.
im sorry for the pain this shit has put you thru. its a cold world, but atleast i got to know you.

Mornings with you, that's all I really want to do.
Rainy afternoons, lets go for a cruise.
your hand in my hand. I know you feel it too.
lets stay awake from sunset to sunrise.

laugh about those guys or that one time.
I know im sorry aint good enough but ill put it to the test cause I love you enough to let you know that I fucked up.
I really do miss those late nights trippin on drugs in the back seat of your Toyota corolla.
I promise you there is no other lover. I am yours to uncover. discover.
lets go for a hike and open up my third eye, connect thru our minds.

its hard to wake up without you crossing my mind.

I guess that's why im writing these rhymes.

I thought it would go away with time,
but,
here you are.
still on my mind.
consuming my time.
you seem to be doing just fine.
that explains why you never hit me up.
just let me ask, what happened to us?
good morning texts and kissing waking up to not even knowing you.
im sorry I couldn't love you.

im sorry I couldn't love you.
i know you tried, and i really tried, too.
Im sorry I hurt you.
I fear no abyss
Lightning air winds through his hair
Serpents entwine in his black curly coils
Strong and thick and big as a rig
Sky eyes pierce me with wisdom and ire
Shine light on my face, this face of a liar
A giant among all men and mice
Makes me meek as a meager mouse bite
I pray for one kiss to reach his lips
Crawl on through infinite muck and mire
Half of his hesitance is bathed in this
The other half moves closer and closer
The whole of my soul believes in this role
All part of me is given to fire
Yet I fear no abyss but his plaintive remiss
Love makes it hard to breathe
Folder:
2018 Love makes it hard to breathe
you might think that’s
a good thing
it’s not
it is
it’s
the ends of my throat shriveling under matches
when I can’t breathe without you
It’s
when I can’t feel my hands
free and falling
then weighed down
wanting nothing
else but this
It’s
the weight of you
on my mind
when I can’t sleep or wake up
when I don’t want to move
fearing if I move I’ll cry or explode or laugh or lose you or
all of the above
It’s too many beautifuls to think this is real
when I’m in your arms and we are
sleeping or awake or somewhere in between
when I look at you and
this heart is too full to breathe.
