I never realise how good a song really is
Until I listen to it at night, all alone,
In the dark... and it makes me want to cry.
There's nothing like a chilling lullaby
Or a broken hearted reminisent love song
To bring forth the tears held back for days,
Just waiting for a moment like this to be
Drained away.

I really should sleep more...

That moment when you look at the sky,
Embracing the warmth of the humidity
Just before the storm breaks,
Breathing in the smell of rain,
Feeling the closeness of the thunder,
Seeing the flashes light up the clouds,
Smiling to yourself-
Dancing in the rain.

I was right.
Fireworks aren't the same without you.
They remind me of that day,
When I stood at the window crying,
Watching fireworks that you'd have loved to see,
Missing you so much it hurt to breath,
Wishing you would hug me one last time...
You had this thing for fireworks,
I'm not really even sure why,
But you used to joke about them
Being your weapon of choice.
And every time I'd see fireworks,
I was reminded of you.

I'm so bored I could pass for a 2x4

The one thing I hate about
Minnesota almost as much as the snow?
All the ******* sunshine
I'm such a vampire

Isn't it amazing how easily we can lose ourselves?
Transported into books, stranded in the woods,
Staring blankly as our minds drift away from us...
Honestly, it's so very easy to get lost now days.
With ideas and gadgets and so much knowledge,
One could even become lost in themself!
Yet here we are, reading poems, trying so hard
To lose ourselves in words. To be free of society,
For however briefly. So I emplore you all,
Stop stressing, relax, and lose yourself in
The beautiful art of Poetry.
