17/M/Minnesota, I am a human person.
I think about her literally every day though if I saw her I don't know what I would say Hey I'm sorry I wasn't ready though I said that I was I lied, I'm a liar, and I lied because I lied because it was easy, I didn't really consider the alternative In matters of truth, I am somewhat conservative Every day she is the first thought that comes to my mind Every night regret and remorse is all I can find I should have been better when given the choice I could have heard the truth spoken by my own voice I live with all that, that is my cross to bear I deserve worse, but life is not fair

Every Day
No, I am perfect, how can you not see Sometimes I feel like you are not listening to me Have you met me? I'm perfect, I say all the right things I'm an Earthborn god, an angel waiting for wings I'm a hero, I always stand for what's right I'm the example to follow, a beacon of light But the person you describe, he doesn't sound so great He sounds like a small-minded self-centered intellectual primate He sounds like he doesn't follow the ethics he preaches He thinks he can walk on water, but he best stick to beaches I hope he's trying to improve, to learn, to grow What did you say his name was? ....oh.

You Are Far From Perfect
I AM my mistakes, it ***** but it's true Every decision you make IS a part of you How could it not be, there's no controller deciding your acts I offer no solutions, I'm merely stating the facts But I will say this: Learn the value of learning I've been there I know the pain, the burning Your mind aches, while your stomach is churning Every night you stay up late rethinking and yearning Remember there is value, there is a chance for earning Earn some perspective, some empathy, maybe a dash of grace So next time you can preemptively wipe the egg off your face

Mistakes
It's easier to be happy when you've been sad Forget the small stuff and just be glad It's important to recognize all the bad But appreciate all the luck you've had

Lucky
There was a hill by the riverside Once atop, you could see the whole world, wide An image that filled most with pride Once the result was felt on the inside The effect on folk was hard to hide A bounce in their step, a change in stride Feelings of cynicism all had died These days the hill is gone alongside All the joy and hope it could provide. And though the stubborn have tried Life is hard without a guide. There is not much to with your time, but bide For the return of the hill by the riverside

Hill by the Riverside
1. No, it probably could get worse. 2. You can trace every bad day to the decision of whether to exit your bed that day. 3. If you didn't **** up **** today, there is always tomorrow. 4. Always help your fellow man, if it in some way furthers your own personal goals. 5. Does it ever feel like everything in your life is falling apart and there is no hope? yeah, me too.

There are a lot of poems about love and even more often the lack thereof Makes sense, love's a big deal And you gotta write what you feel

Love Poems
She loved with her hands opened wide I wanted to match, and I really tried But my heart's not a thing easily unlocked Even still, hand in hand we walked But it could not last, and I knew as soon as the first time we kissed She loved with her hands open, but I loved with a closed fist

Hands
I thought she was a model, the way she looked I thought she was an artist, the way she ****** I thought she was a goddess, the way she cared I thought she was an angel, the way she shared She's gone now, but that's okay I just can't get over the way Ah, nevermind, point is lovin' me's a chore And after all the world needs her more

The Model
A lotta time I think to myself about things that could be A coping mechanism for all that happens to me Daydreaming is easy and a whole lotta fun But of course, nothing ever gets done is that the point?
