Your sun was hot
Heating my inside and out
        Warming my spirit
        Friends — we are it

My dark days were over
My four leaf clover
        Oh what great luck
        ‘‘Twas I that was plucked

A ****, not a flower
So small, not a tower
        But still you chose me
        Filling me with glee

Your sun was hot
And the water was caught
        Drying the streaks
        Of tears on my cheeks
For some reason I told myself I’d never write about you, but here I am and all I can write about is you

If you are in the mountains
Then I am in the sea
You are in the air
And I am in the deep

If you were a bird
Then I would be a fish
And if we were both dogs
You would be a *****

- I want to be so far away from you
Opposites sometimes don’t attract

I wrote that I would write
And write for life
When pushing came and pushing shoved
I would keep my eyes on steady love
To hope to find but always seek
Love comes hither to black out bleak
In love pure and always true
In passion red and comfort blue
To always love and never lust
Because to me it’s all or bust
In some large or small contrite a rhyme
Will be belittled by the one that I call mine
It will be the one who marries me
The one who’s love can set me free
Thoughts?

Friend
She hears the quiet whisper of the man paying his respect to lost love
Wiping his eyes
And offering her heart to lend

Caring
Taking him in
Showing love not deserved
But love she was sharing

Weight
was lifted
Singing and dancing!
Sorrow was not his fate

Free
His spirit lifted
And all he can think is...
Thankful enough he can never be
             ...
Thank you
Louise, happy birthday! I am so glad you are in my life! If I am being honest... You are one of the most fantastic people I know, and I am so happy that you are someone I talk to. Originally, I had planned to come see you this weekend and surprise you! Things didn't work out so this is what I am resorting to. I wanted to read you this poem in person, but since I can't I'll settle for this little birthday note. I wrote this a week ago, I hope you like it, and i hope it helps you understand what you mean to me. Without being all weird, I just want to say that i love you. You are one of my best friends and I hope you have a wonderful bday.

-Love Sam

Sitting here alone, still feeling empty
An event occurs and a friend has left me
We parted with words that hurt my friend
He left with tears in his eyes and wounds to tend

Now I am far away and secluded
A friends trust has been polluted
With a wipe of the eye a bond is deceased
And with death came friends release

Now sitting around people I could care not for
It seems my life has taken a detour
He sent me away because he said he must
And as I did with me came my trust

He took our friendship which was just a seed
And beat it red, making it bleed
I sat head hung and I cried
He walked away, as I was swept away like the tide.
When I started dating a girl was had recently rejected one of my newer friends, he told the school about my drinking habits(at the time I was 17). I was suspended and sent home.... which was 4 hours away by plane! (boarding school). I wrote this in the airport waiting to catch my flight.

Our time is running out
And we must make the most of it
I know you feel the same way
I will show you that I'm worth it
You just have to get away from the prying eyes and take a risk
I can see that you're scared
But you don't have to be
Come with me
And we can experience it together
I will be patient...
I'm just anxious
Wrote this after an experience I had with a girl whom I dated for a short time. This poem was pretty much about how I was trying to win her over, but it was taking longer than expected.

For to be younger
To be naive again is my dream
I have seen what is unwanted
and experienced pain I knew not of
I want to be new for you
I was not like this
I must live with the decisions
I should have thought of you then...
To have your lips
Pressed to mine
For the first time
Even for me
I was inspired to write this when I was rejected by a girl that I thought was pretty amazing. It hurt because she rejected me because of the past mistakes I had made in my life.

everyone always compares eyes
to the rolling ocean tides
eyes that wash over you
eyes that are a deep blue

the ocean seems peaceful
often described as wistful
the tides appear to be magic
depicted as utterly romantic

they’ve forgotten that the seas
can be dangerous beasts
plagued with enormous forces
almost always remorseless

those eyes might be chaotic
perhaps even hypnotic
so be on your guard
you could end up marred

I can’t get my mind to stop
I keep cycling through
my memories of us
my memories of you

from our first kiss
to our last
from our laughs
to our spats

from the times of friendship
to the times of more
from the uncertainty
to times when we were sure

I’m sad that these thoughts
are forever in my brain
because right now
they only bring me pain

I can still see you
sitting there in my car
making jokes
and then taking it too far

our late night trips
to get our food
ending in talks
of a serious mood

you never held back
and that really helped me
to speak up as well
you helped me feel free

right now I’m not mad at you
and it feels quite strange
I thought I’d write this out
before those feelings change
right now I'm just disappointed in us
