You should be kind
for the sake of being kind.
Not because a higher power
told or asked of you to do so.

Treat others
the way you want
to be treated.

We were taught this back in
Kindergarten,
so why is it so difficult
for people to understand?

To each their own.

My choices
are my
choices.
      I'm not expecting
      everyone
      (or anyone)
to understand
      why
or
      how.
I just ask
that you'd
please keep your
comments
       to yourself.

Rhyming words

Pink lip-stick on the **** of a cigarette,
You breathe me in and I can't forget.
You taste like ecstasy but feel like regret,
And love should never feel like a constant threat.

Inspired by a cigarette I saw on the side of the road.

Steps.

Everything you ever wanted;
everything you ever dreamt about.
They're all just sitting
at the top of
the stair-case
         that we call
                    this life...

         All you
      have to
   do is
step.

Opinionated (5w)

People
don't
change;

opinions
do.

Nowhere Fast.

Giving up
seems like
the
best
idea.

I'm not
going
anywhere,
and I'm
a fool
for
trying
every
****
day.

Misplaced.

If home is
where the
heart is,
then why
do I feel
so misplaced
when I walk
through the
front door?

Sick of this feeling
