When I am alone I stared at the stars, I look and wonder where you are

I imagine you smiling, I hear your sweet laugh, instantly transported to a  time in the past.

I hope your not in some other place, starring longingly out into space.

But should you find yourself there, just thinking of me , know I'll be with you for all eternity.
For someone list on life's winding road

You're willing to die for a country
That will exclude you from being able to serve.
You're willing to **** for a country
That still thinks a Bible is a valid argument.
You're willing to contribute to a conflict
That isn't as big a threat to your life
As the people you've vowed to protect the liberty of.
And you do it again and again
With a fraction of the respect patriots demand veterans are entitled to.
Because you've decided to put the needs of the complacent
Above your own human rights.
And you'll get no thanks from them,
Because they can't sleep easily at night
Unless they can rip off your clothing and see what's in your pants.
And if it doesn't add up to their image?
You can sacrifice your life for theirs and they'll still call you a freak.
I don't know why people are still so willing to die for a country that hates them so much, but the idea that the land of the 'free' wants to ban people from doing so and use such moronic excuses to do it has made me angry.
If you talk to me for 5 minutes you can see I am a genius or an idiot
5 more to see if I'm an *** or considerate
Another 5 to double check number 1
5 more and you're having too much fun
5 turns to 10 oh where has the time gone
you found in me your time was well spent
All I wanted was this and nothing more
Could you spare another 5 minutes or...
they look but can't see
What's in front of you or in front of me
rantalized by a tiny screen
Dubbed the attention Sapper known as technology
A decline in communication and people skills
Conversations through texts and giggles
A virtual wall, phone in the middle
Socially awkward meet ups and and time to ****
It's crazy how we have all this time to chill
We refuse to acknowledge and say we're alone
When we are always connected by Internet and phones
Just remember those friends who reach out to try and keep you around
Maybe next time they offer a hand it won't be like litter tossed in the ground
Because a friend to all is a friend to none
Some of us don't have any friends or even just one
So if a stranger were to come out of the blue
Just remember how it started between Me and you  
New to each other's world with everything to hide
Nervous and full of stress
In today's world it could all change with a simple friend request
This world isn't anti social just foreign to the norm

Everything you do can never be undone.
Every moment is as if it never existed.
Your actions impact and stamp the world.
A trail of ripples follows your path.
Inside the wake is a glimpse of peace.
Truth is a piece of mind; unwind.
The reel of memory hidden in the brain,
Understand the consequences of inaction.
Mindfulness is the key to be,
A balanced individual can take the opportunity.
To open a door, down a road.
Around the bend, you won’t know,
Let go of ego and flee from you.
Come across a person who is more you,
Inspiration: Be a better person than you were.
A Man or a Wo-man, shall you be ever prosperous.
As a human being we can all get along with our heavenly brothers.
Earthlings have a responsibility, to be responsible.
Stewards of the sand, rocks, mountains;
Rivers, oceans, trees, and bees are all gems.
Lions, bears, dogs and even cats,
Entitled, to the basic rights of a sentient.
You and I, I and she, he and them,
Take care of the gifts you have been given.
Embrace your talents and follow your drive,
Help another, make a friend,
No one is a stranger, if you tell them your name.
In the beginning, and in the end,
We are all made of the same.

Vote for Better (You)

Electrified.
Situations adapted,
My souls captured.
I breathe the energy,
Of past times undue.
The future is now, the past is too.
I wish you smiled for my happiness too.
We grow elegant in the morning,
And develop strong vitality at night.

Our song is a true piece.
A trust of belief is construct.
Bluff, gold embassy.
Trusted Love Aptly Service Problems.
In God we blush, his love is crush.
Orange beazlebub, I rub a dub dub.
Quit the games my sprite has limes.
Lemons are essential and brains are sentimental. The fewer the feelings the less the mentions. I breathe happy and speak.

Would you mind if I wrote you a love poem
Would you care if I shared it with the world
Would it be okay if I filled it with cliches
As in I am the oyster and you are the pearl

Oh my, it'll be an absolute delight
Go ahead, let the earth be smitten
Let your words float in the twilight
It'll be a beauty no one has ever written


I ask would it be too much
If I compared your beauty to that of Spring flowers
Or how I could just sit here and stare
As I dreamly while away the hours

I'll be flushed with humility
As I am just one of His thankful creations
I'll allow your gaze even through infinity
Admiring beyond my imperfections


Would it be to much to say
That you put the night stars to shame
If I had my very own galaxy
On it I would place your name

You can ask the clouds and sky above
How your words touched my heart to the core
The unfeigned expression of your love
I'm truly blessed, couldn't ask for more


While all above is true enough
Against your beauty nature would lose
I think instead I'll make this poem
A simple "I love you"
