I don't profess to be / the best poet / the best musician / the best student / the best lover / the best reader / the best laugher / the best smiler / But I'm the best me / / That's all we can try for after all
Sometimes in the dark of night All you need's Someone To turn on the light And sometimes when it's too **** cold All you need's Someone To make you feel like gold Yeah sometimes Life's like hell, just colder Everyday, I'm gettin' older But sometimes All you need's Someone To show you That's life Yeah, that's life Oh, well Sometimes in the light of day All you need's Someone To say, hey, life's okay And sometimes when you're feelin' good All you need's Someone To love ya like they should Yeah sometimes Life's worth livin' for Everyday, I get some more And sometimes All you need's Someone To show you That's life Yeah, that's life Oh well Oh, it ain't all bad But it ain't all great But what's the fun in too much fun Or not enough And even though this song I'm singin' Ain't too long and I'm just wingin' It isn't the end of your world Yeah sometimes Life's like hell, just colder Everyday, I'm gettin' older But sometimes All you need's Someone To show you That's life Yeah, that's life Oh, well Yeah sometimes Life's worth livin' for Everyday, I get some more And sometimes All you need's Someone To show you That's life Yeah, that's life Oh well Oh well Oh-Oh well

That's Life
Dear Friend, I don't want to be a bother And, Not to break any eggshells, But the reason for my annoying habit Of saying “I love you” Constantly Is because that is what I do When my heart is breaking. When I am called Fat Stupid Ugly etc. I say “I love you” Because it’s the only way I can Cope I do this because If I show it hurts I’ll remember how much I wish I had better friends But if you don't like it I'll try to change Sorry for bothering you then, Cecilia

Dear Friend,
Wouldst thou take my hand? Or wouldst thou leave it? Wouldst thou ever see, thou art mine love dear. But dost thou show thine heart? Nay, thine just sit! Dost thou know mine intentions? Dost thou hear? Though lady I am, lady I will be, Thine silence has close to have me go mad. I wish to simply tell you truth, you see Explain the feeling for so long I've had I am not sure of Man, I'm sure of me But that dost not mean man cannot be seen For Man is not the truth, but man art thee And man thou art that I do dream unclean And though I dare not say that I'm in love Your smile makes my heart flutter like a dove

Wouldst thou take my hand? Or wouldst thou leave it? Sonnet
Writers block A binding curse The worst agony A poet feels As they take a seat To make something new But the ideas aren't new No, there's a block And you melt in your seat The return of the curse The return of the agony They know how it feels And it feels like agony But that isn't new How everyone feels Surmounting the block Defeating the curse Fighting in your seat And in your seat Enduring the agony Write, rewrite, read, curse And repeat, nothing new Just the block That everyone feels And everyone feels Frustration's seat Seat on the block The block of agony The block of un-new The block, the curse Curse...curse A curse everyone feels... A curse that's not new... A curse in your seat... A curse that's agony... A curse...writer's block! That's it! Simply written When nothing is!

Block-Sestina
Stretched across my bed Rumpling the covers up In hopes of making Myself believe that someone Had tangled them with me once

A Well Made Bed-Tanka
The grey film of rain Makes it hard to breathe The watter seems wetter And colder And harsher Than usual It sinks into my bones And makes then hurt Running down the hill Trying to make it on time Feet slipping in the Barely covered mud Stumbling in Taking refuge I'm shivering I've never felt More weak More helpless More wet And how appropriate That you should arrive You, The only one That can make me feel any More weak More helpless And, of course, More wet

You are why I take Every waking hour and Make something of it You are why I am The first one in the door and The last one to leave You are why I care About everything I do I need you so much

You Are Why-Haiku
the metallic crash of cymbals in the summer august afternoons working together to make this something important the deep, low rumble of bass drums in the band room after school practice trying to get our bass drum splits sound like perfection the vibrant, sharp ring of tenors along the track marching ceaselessly uniformity is what we came here to master the staccato snap of snare drums in the commons the perfect ****** in the perfect roll found nestled within the next try the commanding yell of major tonight is it we have been working for weeks on end now to make this the best it can be one... two... dut, dut, dut, dut our arms are screaming after this but this was the best performance we have ever done so we cried as we were victors

Pudding and Ramen
I've been searching For the poem To show you that I want you To show that I want our Accidental bumps To be purposeful Somethings I've been searching For the poem To show you that I need you To show that I get scared When I don't see you Wave and smile Every day I've been searching For the poem To show you that I love you To show that I love the face You make when you laugh And try desperately To get you to make it more Ironic, isn't it? For so long I've been searching For the one To make me feel this way And now all I need Is to find the words To make you Mine
