If I was a poem
I could tell you my secrets
Without fear of judgement
If I was a poem
I could be ugly
And you would still think I'm beautiful
If I was a poem
My problems would be a source of art
And not painful baggage
If I was a poem
You would actually listen

I'm a bad guy
I stand up for myself
Even against friends
Because I respect my safety
I'm a bad guy
I'm not perfect
But I try to do the right thing
So other people will stop
I'm a bad guy
I refuse to keep taking shots
I fight back
It's not always smart but I'm not a target
I'm a bad guy
I use my voice during affliction
Other people pay for their crimes
And I'm always the one blamed
I try to make amends
And when they don't accept my apology
I become the bad guy

This face you see isn't real
This smile is fake
This laugh isn't genuine
Might as well be plastic
Since its stuck
I put this mask on to hide
Hide from the people and their words
Maybe if I don't show it
They will stop leaving
My eyes have run out of tears
My mouth dry of words
Can't seem to conquer my fears
I mask it with a fake face
I'm a zombie with a party mask
I drag but seem alright
My face tells them I'm fine
But I'm dead
I can't live while walking in the land of the dead
"Push it down"
They tell me
"Don't let it show"
I tell myself
Sometimes it feels like God won't help
These lies give me different masks
Anger puts them on
Fear keeps them on
Saying what I feel isn't an option
So I'll keep these masks
Say hello to my fake face

If my watch breaks
Then I will show you the wrinkles
On my heart
So you know how long
I've been waiting for your love

If you don't mind
Back off
Oh sorry, not you
But my mind
See, we fight often
He tries to take over
Trying to make me miserable
But I resist
I'm into happiness and bliss
Too much time spent
Playing scenarios
Suspecting things
Believing lies
We usually end up in a compromise
I used to wish for the superpower of mind control
Until I realized I already have it
I control my own mind
Call me Professor X
I just schooled my mind
Positive thoughts
No more hate
Righteous thinking
I'm changing my fate
Put me through hell
But I tied him down
Like Naruto did to the nine tails
Yeah you'll see me around
But I'll be glowing this time

Don't got much in life
But I got 6 strings
What better way to deal with strife?
Playing my 6 strings
Don't got much to say
They can talk all day
So I'll let 6 strings talk
They talk so good they might as well walk
Pure words vibrating off their wood
Very loud, more than I ever could
Sometimes they sound sad
They even talk about your dad
Bronze skin but sounds like gold
Never gets old
A constant companion
As strong as a champion
Strummin' like a G...
Chord!
Play em' till I bleed
They're a different kind of breed
So whenever you here a crazy sound
A lovely sound
Harsh sound
Just know it isn't from me
Its from my 6 strings

My king is a rebel king
Different but much better
Wasn't defined by a ring
But by his miracles
He rebelled against the evil law
Against hatred clothed as compromise
People didn't like what they saw
But he didn't waver
People didn't serve him
He served the people
Saved them with true love
As they slayed him
A rebel king who shows mercy
As people do him wrong
He doesn't go with the trend
He's the stuff you sing about in a song
He sacrificed himself on a cross
The ultimate boss
Call him a backwards leader
A rebel king

Ah, her
I'll spare her name for the sake of mystery
But this feeling that is stirred up is quite real
I'm pretty shook, I can't deal
Where do I start?
Her eyes, of course
Eyes as calming as the ocean tides
They pull at mine, drawing me in
Making me want to be by her side
Dark brown, making me melt like brownies
Hair like fire
Beautifully gleaming in the sunset
Wavy curls, waving at my heart
Capturing me in a trance
Oh, she makes me want to dance
That smile
More beautiful than the Nile
Her laugh is a soothing melody
Kissing her lips seems to be my remedy
Oh how I wish I could with her
To show her how much she is worth
Worth more than what she's been told
By both young and old
Worth more than how men look at her
She is a precious keepsake
A woman to cherish
One to take to the lake
And listen to her favorite songs
Her whole being is a song
A sweet melody that lifts my spirits
All day long
her.

Hi, hello, how you doin?
You don't know me, but I'm around
I'm one of the uninvited
Don't be too excited
I'm the one you forgot
The one who is there but isn't
I don't say a lot
I'm present but treated like I'm distant
I'll make you laugh just so you'll like me
But I'll get old and you'll leave
Standing in a crowd like a boring tree
Roots withered, leaves falling
I'm the one who was left at the store by his parents
The kid whose dumped for better friends
Never invited unless being used for a need
There's no one left here to even make amends
Call me a book
Because I've been Left Behind
Rewritten one too many times
Not even the after thought of the after party
Heck, not even at the party
I didn't know there was one
Hope your book club was fun
Your birthday cheerful
Your hang outs cool
Your coffee talks deep
I assume its a blast
I know enough to know you do these things
But I wouldn't know what its like
I'm the uninvited

I wish I was a color
A color to define me
Not one to make me duller
But one to make me shine
Yellow
Bright and contagious
Always ready with a hello
Center of attention
Joy so outrageous
Red
Bold and loud
Confident but a little proud
Embraces people with love
Some say they're from above
Green
Healthy and ready to act
Zealous but has room to grow
Peacefully pleasant
Just like a birthday present
Some say I'm white
But really I'm black and blue
Life is full of colors
But it'll leave its mark
I long to be a good color
One to bring joy
I don't know how though
Sometimes my head pounds
Pounds at the pressure of color
I guess I'm color blind
