I'm not a poet or a writer, really. Just like to express my feelings through writing. / I'm a soccer player. I like to run. I'm pretty fast, usually beating anyone in speed that I'm up against in soccer. Basically who I am.
I didn't know it was a promise But you, I know you did. Did you know it'd change my life? Was I, until then, just a kid? You told me that you loved me For me it was a feeling that was new. Maybe then I didn't know what to say So I said "I love you, too."

When I said "I love you, too."
It's nice to feel the warmth The weather's never bad Living surrounded by the wai And by the sweet sounds Of the ukulele. Many people live aloha Living proud of their culture And friendly to another. Ohana is important And friends are part of it too. A beautiful tradition Giving of leis To someone special On a special occasion Or just any given day. It will be sad to leave one day There's so much sunshine. The mainland's all the same. Here there's so much diversity. I think I'll miss the food the most...

Hawaii Inspired
Last night I talked to both of you No, this's not just a poem too. I told you guys about my dreams How I'm falling apart at the seams. I told you how life used to be How quickly things changed for me. When things were good and then bad When I was happy and then sad. I told you both about my life And how I, myself, am my greatest strife. I talked you both all night Because my anger wasn't right. I wish you two were really there But instead, my bed was bare. I poured my heart out to you two But you will never know what's true. Too many miles separate And now, my heart's a closed gate.

Last Night
I've lost perception. The vision of reality; The sight that should come naturally To me. Were you even real? Indeed you were a dream Only real to me Just me. I know that's a lie. I have pictures stored away Of a distant day Long ago. Or maybe it was yesterday Time's been hard to tell. Sometimes I just wanna yell So loudly. In the recess of my mind I'm working on repression Fighting this depression I'm alone.

Perception Deception
I have nothing more to do Than sit around and talk with you. I could be doing other things And you could be the one who sings. I would get to listen To know what I've been missin'; To hear your voice so sweet It makes me clench my teeth. You could tell me stories All mine would be boring. Yet I know that you would hear them Or at least pretend to listen; All because I have nothing more to do Than sit around and talk with you. A few months later and everything's changed I'm surprised you still even know my name. Days to weeks without talking, maybe a couple texts. Now I have nothing more to do than let go, but 'm always vexed. You told me so many lies Even as you kissed me and touched my thighs. I always used to look forward to another day I couldn't wait to get out of bed for you to say: "Goodmorning, love" or something cute That would eventually tear me from my roots. You looked at me so purposely I couldn't believe it was reality. Now I've waken up, and I see the truth So I'm ready to let you go, and forget your subterfuge.
