My mouth may be closed but my mind is speaking
War is such a beautiful thought to the insane A large scale asylum with all of us inside Crazy, we sit quietly as they talk about war World war lll is said to be upon us Yet we normalize it, nothing is awkward As if the toxic gas will recognize the nostrils of the good; As if the nuclear bombs only burn the guilty and dodge the innocent Black, white, yellow, red skin Doesn't matter All will be affected by the terror Terror that was put into effect by few Three score and ten years was promised to us Yet the idea of some people in countries making it out their adolescenses is foreign God save us all War is such beautiful music to the greedy They love the sound of the drumline Whistling sweet beats into their ears Snare and bass drums booming Pap! pap! pap! Boom! Can you invision it? We are all now a part of a 'jumper' church We can't help but dance to the sound of the music The choir of the innocent Sing to the sound of their demise Hands lifted above head as they shout and run Giving praise to the heavens As God's children fall to the dirt As the dirt rises to the heavens God save us all Why are the good going out to **** and be killed? In the name of their country While the bad cloak their deep desires with a vision of peace All for personal gains Not for the people If it were for the people every life would matter No one would be sent to die And no bombs would be delivered Because peace would be the only option To save all lives and not just some at the expense of others God save us all

Is it hard to find beauty in this black and white world? Where we are blind to the concept of right and wrong; Where we only know what we are taught but never really think for ourselves. How are we sure what's real and what isn't? When we rely so heavily on what we are told instead of what we can piece together. When we could see for ourselves but believe other ways because it is said by the masses. How do we know what is beautiful in itself, if we only know the world's perception of it and never manifested our own ? A misconception agreed upon by many. This beautiful fallacy that singles out a few. What is beauty in itself? When people find beauty in places others do not.

People hang love on the wall Like a picture in a frame We live for the moment of the photo The printing and hanging gives us joy We are so excited the first couple days But why is that it ? We walk past that picture everyday after Yet some days we don't acknowledge it But we notice it so much in stressful times ? When we pace around the house frustrated, Thinking of our next move Gazing at everything around us Until the picture captures your eye You remember the moments it that made us happy You begin to focus on your love that's hanging again Smiling at the memories Love shouldn't be like a picture on a wall We try so hard to capture moments with a person But once its established we relax We walk everyday casually Passing our love on the walk Not remembering how important that moment was We tend to forget how much we loved And how hard we worked to capture that moment Capture that person at the right moment Yet we act lackadaisical after it is taken But, when troubles come about we stop and pause And remember the memories Why do we have to think of the memories and try after its stressful? We should focus on our happiness all the time Love shouldn't be a picture on our wall It should be constantly in our hearts To reminds us each day why we decided to capture that moment in the first place

Framing the love
Stress everywhere Comprised of work and worry It creeps; lurking Until i walk to close Striking rapidly Slicing the air as it moves Frantically startling my Heart It's noisome stench lingers Infecting the atmosphere Not allowing itself to be forgotten It intrude my nostrils Implanting itself on my brain Yet I still reject it Procrastination and I skip happily Through a green garden that slowly withers Knowing that time runs out I wait anxiously for my responsibilities To run to me Saying time is almost up Then I try to do the impossible Foolishly and disorderly Rushing to finish tasks As my responsibilities frown at me Their disappointing faces haunt me Drowning out the disappointment I have for myself Then they slowly walk away Knowing fully well that I can not finish them all Then the pace slows And I become lackadaisical Knowing that it is over I had failed myself The overwhelming defeat consumes my emotions I weep without a friend But then someone emerges from the shadows Its procrastination Coming to hug me Wiping away my tears I love you My old friend

Procrastination
Stressed beyond compare Even when I feel I've figured a part of my life out Its shoved back in my face to fix again. So much going on at one time But I'm stuck on some things I can't move as quickly as I want too Procrastination already creeps up on me Now life sprinkles a dash of its own disasters on my plate to add more flavor To an already full meal New problems just arise From every angle As I walk my path problems just bank corners One with a bat One with a knife one armed just with a cunning voice just to fck with my head So hard to focus on the road when there are so many detours Climbing the tree of uncertainty While the branches hide the monsters of life so perfectly from sight Not knowing what's there until i reach for the next branch and it grabs me Jumping down to avoid the fear But what do I gain from being scared of life? What would I have gained from climbing in the first place ? I have to fight... The evil forces that surround this humanal existence The pain that we endure. The forces that affect me directly and indirectly Every problem I learn from But honestly do I get stronger ? The wounds heal leaving nasty scars Helping me to understand more People with bibulous tendencies I use to crave the life of people who always smile But now I realize some of them Are hurt more than I am And the only thing I want from them now is the ability to hide pain so well

Life's challenge ~jay
You're here! Oh what joy! My world, my love, my everything is here! But then u leave again But u just got here Where are you going? Should I ask, should I follow Are you coming back today or tomorrow ? It’s cool. Don't answer. U still have that piece of my heart u borrowed I'm ok I'm ok. Yes that’s a real smile. Happiness on the outside But in. The sin. The evil grin. As if you Discard my heart to a garbage bin My thoughts roam. What can be more important? U say u miss me but when u have the time, u leave ? U say I don't love u but it looks like my heart is the only one that's still warm and beating... Slowly the darkness consumed me. My bad thoughts start to outweigh the good. The warmth from my hands are gone. The coldness in my touch now resembles yours.

*My day without you is like a day without the sun There is no light, no life, no purpose My thoughts without you is like an empty piñata It just waits for an opportunity to be filled with something sweet and amazing My heart without you is like a marching band with no drum major They make beats but it doesn’t flow right because something is missing to help it along My body without you is like a blank canvas It longs for the day that someone with bright spontaneous ideas to come along and change everything My day without you is like a fairy tale with no happy ending The prince wakes up every day knowing quite well that he may not find his true love All I want is you, and with you I feel like I can do anything*

*Life is good when life is good Life is bad when life is bad Sometimes life is good but you’re still sad Sometimes life is bad but you’re still glad Why is that? It’s the way you live Put things into my perspective We make a choice to look at the bright side We choose to make or break our own lives Never let problems get you down Pick your head up and hold your crown When faced with challenges smile don’t weep And the battle already half won so don’t settle for defeat*
