Life on a Rock
As I stand there looking into the horizon, thinking,
thinkingof a never ending quest to find who I really am.
I almost feel like I’m dreaming, I am.
I'm standing here an everything is spinning,
spiraling out of control and then it all closes in.
I’m sleeping and I can’t wake up. I've crossed over into a different world where the secrets of this lifeare able to be unlocked.
The truth dares me to jump, leaving everything i have behind.
Leaning over and looking down my heart falls a thousand feet into my stomach.

Its 12:54, as we gather each other up and make our way down the hall I think to myself, “do I really trust them?” every other Thursday it’s the same thing. We walk through the door then right and then our immediate left.
We sit around the table, same seats every time, and I continue to ask “do I really trust them?”
I’m open, don’t hold back. I tell them just about anything, why? I have no idea.
I can tell from their facial expressions that they didn’t judge me.
So as I sunk back down into my chair I feel a little relieved.
That’s when I noticed “I really do trust them!”

She read my poems
She read my poems;
I never let anyone read my writing unless its music but she read it.
I sat in her office in the same seat I sit it every week and I watched as she pulled out the paper with my username and password I gave her. I honestly didn’t think she would use it but she did.
She asked questions of course, for me to define the intensity of my writing, so I did. She didn’t respond the way I thought she would and i am actually glad but if only I knew what was really going back and forth through the hemispheres of her brain as it sent messages back and forth while she...

Tierra Part 2
After i wrote the poem about you and showed you that i cared you ripped yourself right out my heart and now our love has burned and the embers float through the air. i made decisions in my life for me and no one else and if you really cared about meyou'd still be here. you said you seen it coming and when it came you ran. your a liar like the rest and i have moved on to the next.

A Poem I Wrote For My Great- Grandmother (R.I.P)
To everyone who reads this, this poem was written with respect!! So if you’re reading it I ask that you read it to understand and don’t read it just to read it!! May 2, 2010has made one year since I lostmy most important person in the world!! Writing this was not easy for me...
My soul hurts and my heart skips beats when I think about the fact it's you I can no longer see. You left me in this world all alone because it was your time, your turn to go home. But it was said that you came to me in my dreams and now that I think it was your voice I heard that crept up behind me. I...

Tierra
You entered my life unexpectedly and yet i don't regret it, I sometimes fear that i may lose you but at the same time it's whatever. I say that because i know that your love will only pull us together and whether or not we're apart your name will always be tatted on my heart! You give me the joy and peace i need to look forward to another day. Hearing your voice gives me the butterflies but i will never just fly out your life. I know there's some shit that we will go through but just know that at the end of it allI Love You!!

Our First Time Part I
we were just laying there, as she stared deep into my eyes and came a little bit closer i knew something was on her mind. "I think I'mready baby" she spoke softly as she kissed me ever so gently. it's been three months since we started dating and i had alwaysdreamed ofthis moment. "huh?" pretending i didn't catch exactly what she said i soon found myself pined in the center of the bed. staring up at her as she removes her clothes. this is a side of her i had never seen before, even though everything is clear I'm still wondering what's going on. "Are you sure this is what you wanna do?" she...

This poem has no title!!!!
this poem doesn't have a title...read and please leave suggestions....enjoy!!!
don't think you know how i feel because of the expression on my face or because i have tears in my eyes. I'm not that easy to read so don't try. i have a guard up that's made of the same metal a gun is made from except mines is about 7inches thick and watching people try to break it down is always fun (not really). i could care less about what people really think and i really just don't listen when they speak. other peoples opinions mostly sound like lies and makes me wanna stab them and dig so deep. i...

omfg.......I love you lol
after everything i ever been through you were the one that picked me up and promised never to let me go and i love you. you always keep your word and just because i know your here makes me sensitive to love. when i look into your eyes i see an angel staring back at me and as you open your mouth to speak my name she sings a song. the lyrics are beautiful, they wrap themselves around my heart and now i know this is true. i kiss your lips that taste of strawberries and even though they make mine sticky i kiss you again. placing my hand upon your cheek and staring straight at you i no longer see...
