Poet Introduction

Name Help Please..
Looking through a mirror
Etched into my mind
Of my past that replays tainted time
People I've let in
Who weren't as kind
Bruised memories because I was blind..
I was nice to the wrong individuals
Years wasted , un-intentional
I want to forgive but it's so hard to forget
One day I'm fine,
The next I'm a wreck..
I let my heart do most of the talking
Knowing it can come with a price
Thinking if I give it my all
Everything will be alright..
It's like I've become numb
To the copious let downs ...

Free As The Wind
Whenever I go to the beach
All my worries are released
My sins become forgotten
In the midst of the ocean breeze
The birds fly so freely
With grace so elegantly
What my soul is longing for
As I sit in the sand by the sea
I feel as if time suddenly stops
And I am one with the waves
As they crash upon the shore
All through the night and days
I can just float through the motions
In a little piece of heaven
All the stars and the oceans
Casting away my depression
As the sun beats down
With...
All my worries are released

As they crash upon the shore
All through the night and days

Smoke My Weed
Cleansing my soul
As I smoke my weed..
Freeing the demons
Rolling up another sweet..
Let the sticky sweet substance
Flow inside of me..
With every puff off the blunt
My stress is relieved..
My emotions are settled
Not all over the place..
It calms my anxiety
That can lead to rage..
I can sleep better
And can function properly..
My mind isn't running
I can actually be me..
One hit and I feel better
When I smoke the green leaf..
Just stay in your lane
And let me be free..
...
As I smoke my weed..

You'll Miss Me
You'll miss me
When no one else seems to care
Because your attitude
Is what got you there.
You'll miss me
When you need a hug
But you'll never get one
Because of the stubborn grave you dug.
You'll miss me
When you start to fall
But you pushed everyone away
So you have no one to call.
You'll miss me
When you want to give up
And no one hears your silent screams
You'll wish you had my love.
You'll miss me
When you've finally had enough
Of letting your ego control you
At least...
When no one else seems to care
Because your attitude
Is what got you there.
You'll miss me

But you'll never get one

So you have no one to call.
You'll miss me

And no one hears your silent screams
You'll wish you had my love.
You'll miss me

I'm gonna pop a little pill
So all the bullshit goes away
Don't want to feel anything right now
I just want to go to space
Trying to forget everything
That ever mad me mad
Let the good vibes take control of me
So I can forget why I'm sad
I'm so sick of the anxiety
The hatred and the rage
Trying to move on but
It's like my mind is in a cage
There's no getting ahold of it
So I write my pain on this page
Knowing I'm not the only one
Praying for better days
Pop another half a pill
Waiting for that...

Grain of Sand
Small
Stepped on
Sometimes unseen.
Washed away without warning.
Faced to struggle alone.
No need to fight back.
For its no use ..
I'm just a grain of sand.
Sometimes packed away in the depths.
The more you dig me up the colder it gets.
Darkness; yet can bring so much joy.
Adventurous; traveling the abyss of the sea.
I'm just a grain of sand..
Stranded.
Lost.
Constantly ran over.
But still manages to see the beauty in the...

Be Different
A Lot of people like to think that I'm the crazy one
I think I just have a different outlook on life
How could you possibly know what I went through
Or all the demons I fight
You don't know the bridges I've burnt
Or the mountains I've climbed
You don't know the lessons I've learned
So many different times
Pain changes you..
It changes your perspective.
It makes you want to bury yourself
Like you cannot be accepted
It changes all you use to know
As if the old you dead and gone.
It makes you feel misunderstood ...

From The Start
From The Start
When your days
are dark and gray..
Ill kneel down with you,
And softly pray..
To God for strength,
On this tough morning..
Just believe in Him,
And all His glory..
It takes time but trust,
He will rid you of all mourning.
Take my hand,
And walk with me..
Let me show you a place,
To remove that frown..
On your handsome face.
I'm here with you now,
So stop all your worrying..
I'm not going anywhere,
Take the keys to my car..
Ill...

Beachin
Sunny rays
Sandy breezes
Humid days
Beautiful beaches
Airplanes flying
Carrying signs
Kites flowing
Up real high
Some are drinking
Few are swimming
Ball games going
Winning teams cheering
Colorful chairs
Umbrellas for shade
Or maybe even
If it rains
Burgers grilling
Dessert on ice
Strawberry cake
Or chocolate pie
Fishing even
On the peir
Big fish or small
Whatever's near
Its always fun
At the beach

Your Heart
Teardrop on your guitar
Signifying your freshly broken heart
How you gave her your everything
To watch it fall apart
So now you feel stuck
Like you don't know where to go
Your friends they keep calling
Asking where did you,
Where did you go..?
When you yourself barely knows
What road to take from here
Or how to fix your broken soul
You just keep on pushing
Gripping onto hope
Asking, begging, pleading to God
For an answer,
Any answer to help let go
Because you know that she's...

Grown Apart
Broken inside,
it's all your fault,
Darkness consumes,
Voicing my flaws.
Love me hate me
you chose Hate,
Now you lost me
Was it fate?
So far gone, yet
we almost had it all,
My heart withdrawed,
So alone we fall.
Abandoned dreams,
Broken hearts,
Lost screams,
Grown apart.
Don't come back,
I won't be here,
Closures a must
I still love you dear
It sucks without you,
But I'm holding on,
Faking smiles,
Trying to be strong.

How
How can you tell me you love me
Then just push me away..
How can you tell me you love me
But not mean what you say..
How can you tell me you love me
Then so willingly go after her..
How can you tell me you love me
Leaving me in a messy blur..
Of emotions
And
Feelings
That never occured..
To you.
Or broken
Dreams
And
Demons
Constantly creeping..
Through the shadows
in your window..
Consuming my being..
How...
Then just push me away..
How can you tell me you love me
But not mean what you say..
How can you tell me you love me
Then so willingly go after her..
How can you tell me you love me
