Success isn't about being able to stand tall and proud.
It's about waking up every morning knowing that you have one more day, one more moment, to change someone's life.
It's about trying your hardest to make someone's life just a tad bit more worth living.
And at the end of the day, you can feel God's happiness through your actions.
It's an unfortunate situation, I know
I'm aware of how much has happened
All because of my senseless feelings
But maybe now, we can both be happy
I was too caught up on the idea of your perfection
To see the world around me was moving
Almost like I was drowning
When everyone else was breathing
But now honey, it's all okay
Because I'm starting to understand how to live again
Without you
Without the love I never had
I'm beginning to realize
Just how much I can be given
And just how much I can give
And none of it is because of you
But I love you, don't ever forget
It's just that sometimes
You have to let go
In order to not have regrets.
Indescribable emotions
A passion that is too great for words
And a longing that's too shameful for the world
This is my poem to you
A desire to fill the hole within your heart
With the undeserving substance that fills mine
A calm and mellow tide of understanding
If only you could see
The ache that grows with each passing breath
That slips from the lips
Of a hopelessly desperate soul
And yet you cannot know
The lulling peace that longs for you
To engulf your world in a sea of silence
That only my words may conduct
But you're ignorance is too deafening to hear it.
Words are strong. But they are nothing if you do not have love.
I just need you to know
from the very depths of my unforgiving heart
to the beautifully painted ceiling of my mind
that no other could love you
like I do

Sleep Deprived Thoughts
My honesty is at stake
The mountain of these lies piling higher and higher
Overpowering my typically high tolerance of such ignorance
Tearing down my integrity and my resistance
Reconstructing my life with an unsound base
Weakening the inner walls of my being
Pulling at the tightly-wound strings of my heart
Lower and lower into the cage of my lost innocence
Life no longer holds the perplexity of my mind
It only holds the despairing truth of my reality.
Sometimes in this house, I hear noises
Little quiet steps that resound in my head
A whisper that trickles between the old cracks of these walls
Memories of a childhood too long forgotten
Sometimes a shadow creeps up from the corner of my eye
It slithers along the wall as if it is not seen
It reaches up, a chill upon my neck, and ruffles the hair above my ear
I am not the same
This house holds too many memories
Too many lost causes and silly accomplishments
Too many unsaid I Love Yous and firm, cold stares
This house is haunting
I grew up too fast
A childhood ripped out from under my feet
Becoming nothing but a cold linoleum flo
Innocence
an open book of blank pages
Experience
the lines that create your world
Innocence
letting someone hold you
Experience
pushing someone away
Innocence
saying your sorry with tears
Experience
saying your sorry by never looking back
Ignorance
thinking it was all in your hands
Knowledge
realizing it was all in your head.
Beauty is not measured by appearance
It is not measured by the complexity of skin
It is not measured by the softness of a voice
It is not measured by the thinness of a waist
Beauty is like a painting
It begins with a single stroke of a brush
And blossoms from the imagination of an artist
It is not judged upon its texture
But rather its creativity
Beauty is not something won and lost
It is not something fought for
It is natural and it is eternal
Beauty is cherished
Beauty is not flaunted
It is not an image to show off
It can not be stripped away
Layer by layer
And expected to get better every time
Beauty is grace and essence
If you were to turn around
To look me in the eye
To open your mind
Then you would see.
If you were to speak my name
With the tenderness
That I so often dream of
Then you would know.
If you were to ask
To ask me what I think
To ask me about you
Then you would listen.
Because what I love about you is simple
I love your silly little laugh
Your bright smiling eyes
I love your awkward grin.
I love your stories about your childhood
The ones written across your memory
With permanent ink
And a lesson learned.
I love your childish voice
And your inability to sing
I love your untamed tendencies
And your lack of patience.
I love
Indefinitely maybe,
Forever so true,
Completely and totally,
Is how I'm lost in you.
I can't believe I'm saying it,
I can't believe it's time,
To smile and tell you I love you
And hope you feel the same.
Without you the stars don't shine,
With you they never shined brighter,
Your smile just lights up the world,
The world of my heart.
You wipe away my tears with words,
You lift my hurt with just a look,
And nothing need be spoken
In order for me to know...
...to know that you love me.

Fifteen minutes away,
is a life you'll never live,
one you wish you had,
but knew you'd never get.
There's no breaking rules,
there's no stepping out of line,
you thought you knew what you wanted,
your mistake is in that lie.
Fifteen minutes away,
is a life you'll never live,
one you wish you had,
but knew you'd never get.
Falling is so easy,
getting up is just so hard,
all you know is nothing,
and he's just so damn far.
Fifteen minutes away,
is a life you'll never live,
one you wish you had,
but knew you'd never get.
Failing is as simple,
as breathing in and out,
achieving love is harder,
than life and death without.
I watch and wonder about you,
as you sit in a red cushioned chair,
you're hair is brushed back in a bun,
and your eyes are cast to the floor.
The pen sits heavy in your hand,
the paper light upon the book,
words curling, twisting upon the page,
and your lips are pursed with concentration.
Your thoughts flow out before us both,
they cover the white with black ink,
they form a poem, a sonnet,
and your fingers ache to stop the work.
I can hardly tell if they're true on not,
if the sincerity in your face is false,
as the emotions fall into your words,
and I'm completely lost in them.
I wonder if your poems reflect,
reflect who yo
Purple orchids swirl with cream colored lilies,
blue skies twirling around with little pink kites,
my Heaven is what this all looks like,
my Heaven is so much more than sight.
The feelings of love and warmth and passion,
thrown in with some sweetness and sincerity,
my Heaven is what this all feels like,
my Heaven is beyond simple rarity.
Tasting of blackberries so sweet and ripe
with lemonade sparkling and strawberry delight,
my Heaven is what this all tastes like,
my Heaven is by far greater than might.
The sounds of waves rolling upon the shore,
whispers coming from someone you love,
my Heaven is what this all sounds like,
my
I ache to slap you back,
to watch you feel the pain,
of being left behind,
in the dust, and out of the game,
I want to scream at you,
and wait for you to comfort,
to hold me close and lie,
lie about all I know,
because truth be told,
I hate you, and I love you even more,
but all you've done is kill me,
beat me to the floor,
throw me against the wall,
hit me in the face,
all with words and smiles,
that hurt at a steady pace,
You can sleep so peacefully tonight,
unaware of how I cry,
because of how you're killing me,
because of how you're my guy.
Let me know
Tell me the truth
Do you have that feeling?
That feeling deep down
That we're meant to be
And we're both making mistakes?
Give me a sign
A hint of anything
Something for me to think about
Tell me you love me
Hold me close
Kiss me softly
Don't let me go
Let me love
Like the choice is mine
Don't choose my path
It's destined by the one above
Don't tell me yes or no
Just encourage me along the way
Don't say stop
Say go
Help me to think and be
But don't try to influence who I am
Don't try to correct my path
Just let me be me
You know I love you so
You know I always will
You know I mean forever
You know
Yet you still control my life
Every day the same old deal
Darling you're driving me insane
Depressed enough to take that knife
Thank you for attending
Please enjoy the appetizers
Everyone is happy
Even in the coffin, I am smiling
A Father's loving spirit
does not deserve this cruelty
upon the earth we float in despair
shattered by an individual's mutiny
Stained by lust for wickedness
A tormented creature took twenty seven
away from our loving arms
now to be forever in heaven.
I pray with all my heart and soul
that the families of the diseased
be protected by angels
and their torn hearts be appeased
Words cannot describe the sorrow
you hold in your sacred heart
my Lord, please don't cry
don't cry my beloved..
Paper thin morals and a paradoxical existence.
Life would be so great if you could only run the distance.
All being and nothingness,an empty shell of presence.
Your pity becomes you and your existence precedes your essence.
You don't know what you want or are,
or what you even hoped for.
I can see your blank and empty eyes looking down on me.
Is this pointless figure everything you dreamed to be?
You are a download.
Your empty conscious leaves your imagination free.
A digital monstrosity, a simple thing of mediocrity.
Painful and cold, your life has been sold.
Your thoughts are compressed and hardwired.
Your ideas are not yours a
