At this time we cry
We cry right along with the sky
Why the sky cries, we don’t know why
But I think I know what it’s caused by.

He’s up there
Sad because he knows where
Watching over his loved ones
And friends lacking a bright sun

The clouds are grey
Nobody knows what to say
Nobody knows how to express in any way
But to lose a tear and forget about their day

His tears come in the form of rain
He sees our pain
The amount of response is insane
His fate has brought together a community

Those who are unfamiliar of his name
Still lower their head in the rain
Those who don’t know his name
Still run tears down their face

However, there is always light in the dark
While right now seems impossible
There has been some good to come out of it
Together a community has come, bonding and strong.

So let us all put our hands together
Cherish each other
Enjoy life
For at one second, it could all be gone.

cody dale
day after day
i rumble on
bags under eyes
getting bigger and bigger
i cant think
i cant sleep
my body deprived
of its comforting sleep
during the day i dream
about what its like
to rest my head
on a soft cool pillow
and dreasm of
sweet dreams
during countless
sleepless nights
when my mind refuses to rest

The day is dark
The people with their heads down
The future has no spark
The circumstances cause a frown

We are promised no second
Spared no consequence
Anything can happen
And it could happen tomorrow

A friend who I hardly knew
Yet a friend still
Now rests in the clouds
Leaving his friends with their heads down

There’s not a lot someone can say
At least not today
We all have a lease,
And for him, rest in peace.
This was written for a friend I knew. He died on the night of Monday, March 9th. Rest in peace.

The little boy lays on his side
By his TV he is hypnotized
No reason makes him want to rise
He wants to lay there and close his eyes

His life is hard
His body full of scars
The TV is blaring cars
While the boy's future seems as distant as Mars

The tele keeps him happy
The tele calms his mind
The tele keeps the demons away
For he knows no other way to make his day

As he inhales a new breath
He worries about the rest
How much he has left
His bed feeling much like a nest

As he closes his eyes
He thinks about tomorrow
In his bed he lies
Stuck in an inescapable sorrow.

It's always pure fate
To find the one who will be your date
The one who is your soul mate
The one you could never hate

There are a lot of fakes
The ones who are always late
Ones who try to stipulate
And turn you into someone you hate.

When that one is found
Nobody needs to make a sound
It's just something obvious
Nothing needs to be discussed

Your heart skips
And your mind slips
Always thinking of another
More than their own mother

The one will make you feel
A little more than the real deal
Quickly they will help you heal
Together, both are like steel.

Together they resonate true love
High up on the wings of a white dove
Forever locked in an embracing hug
Never to be broken, regardless of challenge

So I say to you
The one who has my heart
My feelings for you are true
Easily expressed by an *"I love you"
Simple love poem for a special someone, thought I'd share it.

Swirling twirling
My life is whirling
My stomach is churning
And my head is spinning

I feel fantastic
The comprehension, nobody has it
My mood is somewhat lactic
Well, without the acid.

Nothing can deter my mood
Not even if, to me, one were rude.
I'd simply look at you
And say "calm down dude."

But alas
I know this feeling will not last
My happiness will not end fast
But like all good things, it will come to an end.

You see, there are demons out there
Nobody knows where
But they always show up
Leaving you like "what the chuck?"

But I'm ready
When they come, my voice shall be steady
My body may be shaking
But my will not breaking

These demons are always on the attack
When you think they're gone, they come back
They come so much I've lost track
And often with some distasteful hack.

But happiness and hope never go away
Like Pandora's Box, there's still hope to show
Everyone is a Pandora's Box
They just need to know.
This was mainly me trying to let out the demons and realize, they can't affect me. I was feeling stressed. Then I remembered, I also have a Pandora's Box. I still have hope.

By lactic, I was thinking most people are happy about milk. Milk has lactic acid, except acid is generally considered bad so I mentioned just lactic.

Good things come to those who wait
That’s a lie because you’re not good, you’re great,
And I was all but lost for Valentine’s
Thinking I had no date

While my first impression was not the best
I promise it will be outdone by all my rest
And this opportunity I’ve dreamt about
Will become reality without any doubt

My words are not fabricated
I mean what I say
You are the reason for the beat of my heart
And my feelings for you have no clear start

My words are not fabricated
I mean what I say
You are the reason for the beat of my heart
And my feelings for you have no clear start

They are all inside of me
Wanting to come out
And all I need is one chance
For you to see that I can be your best.

I will not be hurt by a negative response
For you will always be in my heart
I’m not sure where our future will end
But I know where I want it to start

Will you be my Valentine?

"For you, I would give up my whole world for an eternity."
I wrote this mainly for fun. There's always a special someone out there and I think this is something that will be nice to read.
