This is exactly why I use my second account
People make assumptions about poems
Not about them

You'd like it better that way

Last night as I was talking
I realized what happened
And what insecurities
You have always had
Funny how this dance
Happens to be a masquerade
We all hide it somehow
Not that everyone needs to have an insecurity, love yourself. But when something happens everyday for a month and words are left hanging you can piece together the puzzle of why certain people do and say certain things

Ragan
Rj Feb 2015
You are the one person who has been a constant
I see the open bible, marked from head to toe
On your skin, the verses alive inside if your heart
Positivity seeps from you're pores, gleaming
And I've never met someone who genuinely listens
I've never met someone who is funny,
Without using these ****** jokes, these negative words
You've never cursed in your life, you remain pure
You don't sink low as to talk about others,
You're faith is deep rooted, and no wind can shake you
Yet your eyes are soft, easy to lock in and feel at home
Every time I'm with you, I feel my spirit lifted,
I feel myself become the very best I could ever be
My role model, I strive everyday to be more like you
No I'm not crushing on her, she's my best friend living far away. I realized how much I miss her

Mother, Help Me
Rj Feb 2015
Thank you Mother, I finally found a way to connect
And it's the most wonderful way to connect too
Mother, I know you are worried about me
And once again I agree, I am worried about myself
Because these people around me are slipping
Listen to our conversations, listen to how we speak
The words, unnecessary, the profanity is at a high
Would you speak that way in front of Jesus?
Open your eyes, Jesus lives within you,
Yet you curse and tell these jokes, and don't think
And I am becoming like them Mother,
It's so hard to make this decision, to cleanse
when I'll be doing it alone

Inspire
Rj Feb 2015
Know your limits so that you can break through them
This quote helped me win gymnastics championships. I would know my limit was back tucks on balance beams, and I smashed through it. Maybe I should start applying this to my entire life.

Fix You
Rj Feb 2015
When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth
Fix You by Coldplay. Wow.

It's so ******* hard to look these people in the eyes
And I try, but no matter how much I write about it
It's never gotten easier, especially with those people
Sorry I write about this a lot, but I can't fix it and it's killing me

Goals
Rj Feb 2015
I had a goal, something to get
But now, I see how impossible
It was for me to strive for that
And with that sudden realization
Maybe it's time I get a new one

Clay Models
Rj Feb 2015
Because I have put literally all of my focus on other people
Because every day I remind her she's strong and pretty
Because I go around reminding other people how great they are
I don't have any compassion left for myself, and even if I did
While I'm building everyone's clay model, perfecting that image
No one has been there to just ask how I'm doing,
But its fine, I truly do enjoy helping others,
It would just be nice if people put in as much effort as I do
To, not to sound selfish, but show they care

Psalm 36:6
Rj Feb 2015
Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains
Your justice like the ocean depths
You care for people and animals alike O Lord, how precious is Your unfailing love!

Gifted
Rj Feb 2015
Gifted people are everywhere
She, well have you seen how smart?
How about her beautiful paintings
Those two can sing amazingly
The way she tye dyes? That's talent
How about that guitar she plays
She could make any shot on the court
Her kind words have to be a gift
And then there's that one
She can't sing, shoot, paint, play,
All she can do is dribble a ball, averagely
I would love to honor the gifts of some of my friends. 'She' pertains to different people in each line. Yes the last three are about me, don't worry

Morning

Slow strums on a peaceful guitar
Golden sun rays through the widow
A sweater with tea and spring birds
What I long for right now

Athlete
Rj Feb 2015
I don't consider myself a poet
I don't consider myself an artist
I don't consider myself smart
But I consider myself an athlete
Though I'm not pristine at that
It may be all I have

What Scary Movies Do To Me
Rj Feb 2015
The boy wasn't okay
He was depressed
He saw dead people
He needed help, but
No one was there
I thought what would I do
I would **** myself
Now stop. Your worried now
You think I'm depressed
Suicidal? No. So stop.
Only in his situation would I
But that's what scares me
That boy never found happiness
Even sunlight and people
It never made him truly happy
What if I will never be happy?
What happens if the mountains
Don't make me warm and smile
But they do. So stop worrying
Look at the pictures on your walls
I am happy? But it's not visible
All you see is straight lines for smiles
And your father isnt listening!
Dad? I'm trying to talk
But the computer held his attention
Longer than I could
Can I hold anyone's attention?
And how can you tell worth
And when will this feeling go away
Or how long will you stay
What about those videos
What about those videos
I'm afraid to walk into a room
Where there is an adult for fear
That I'll hear that again
But I want to hear myself breath
Heavily not because of ***,
But because you have my heart racing
And my lungs have to keep up
My mind is racing but still feels like a
brick
But how can something be dense
When it also feels empty?
Speaking of dense, me?
All because its late at night
And this is what scary movies do to me.
Okay I'm talking to different people including myself in this. It's ******* scrambled words thrown up on this website before schools starts again

Don't Look
Rj Feb 2015
Lately it's been harder to look people
in the eye
As if I'm trying to hide something

Videos
Rj Feb 2015
Looking at myself is funny
Scrolling through videos of
Myself from years ago
How thin, young, high pitch
How small, yet extremely confident
How goofy, and unafraid
How assured I was, How unscarred
How unaffected, unaware
And how nice it was to be that way

Human
Rj Feb 2015

Letting their human show.
Since when was human nature a crime
