No matter what time
You can still always call me
I will wake for you

I put on this face
To mask my pain
This hurt that I'm feeling
Each and every day
I don't want them to see
How depressed I've become
That I'm just a shell
Of who I once was
So many emotions
Always hit me at once
On the surface I'm calm
But inside I am not
I crave to find joy
To silence this pain
But my hopes have been silenced
My eyes are like rain.

I lay in the grass watching the clouds above me
They darken, it begins to rain
But I don't feel like leaving
Because the downpour covers up the pain.

The look on your face
As you smile and laugh with me
Has got me floating

To see someone hurt
and be unable to aid
as their heart is in pieces
from such a fresh break
you see as the pain
escapes from their eyes
as sadness envelopes
and takes over their lives
but pain that is felt
will lessen with time
and your heart will repair
as life's grand design
you'll find love again
and that love will be true
because they will love you for you.

You're worthy of love
let your fears fade away
let the emotion run through
it's ok to feel pain
let the hurt run it's course
let the tears fall
for life has it's purpose
fate will soon call.

All I've ever wanted is to find the one
The one who's laughter is brighter than the sun
The one who makes you smile when the world is sad and gray
The one who always loves you throughout all of your days.

The perfect Haiku
Can it be written or not
The question at hand

I don't know where I'm headed
no clue what road to take
endless paths and infinite choices
decisions I have to make.

Dear Kobe,
For years I've watched and hated
as you tore through the N.B.A
but even though I despised you
I couldn't look away
You became one of the greatest
made me respect the way you play
from a three point shot to start your career
to sixty on your final day.
It's been a pleasure to hate you
but I'm sad to see you go
because beating L.A just won't be the same
without a Black Mamba show.

Laying in my bed
endless thoughts swirling around
inside of this mind.

I only want to smile
to feel all warm inside
someone to say they love me
every day and night.

I want to be romantic
write you my cheesy poems
so I search and I wait for love to appear
and my heart to not feel so alone.

I stand in this valley
a flood of colors surround me
green, blue, purple, yellow
a bounty of flowers all around.
Jagged cliffs stand in the distance
towering, mysterious, desolate
beckoning me to come near.
I run towards them
through the valley of flowers
through the calm sea of colors
off to the unknown that awaits
at the top of the cliffs.

You were always there for me
always able to put a smile on my face
you knew exactly what to say
to brighten my world up.
We were only friends
but for me it was much more
back then I was just figuring out
how powerful love can be.
I never once told you how
I truly felt
when perhaps I should have
because looking back
you weren't just my friend
you were my best friend.
I could ramble on for hours
of nonsense
and you would smile and laugh
and make me feel special.
But I never told you
how I felt
and slowly our lives
moved on in opposite directions.
So now I look back of
what could have possibly been.
I regret not telling you
however I look at the woman
you have become and
how happy you are with
your life and smile
because even though
I never acted on my feelings
I got to experience a truly special
friendship with a wonderful
person and will always treasure
the memories I made with you.

I love listening to natures heartbeat
the rain falling from above
the birds singing of love
the crickets nighttime chorus
coyotes howling in the forest
waves splashing on the beach
wind rustling up leaves.
Just close your eyes
and listen up
to hear natures
rhythmic thump.

I've just met you
but it's easy to see
that you could be the one
I've been hoping to meet.
You could be that girl
I see in my dreams
the one who shows up
and sweeps me off my feet.
I do not know why
I feel this so fast
but I know one thing
I'd love if it'd last.

I stare out my window
and into the rain,
at the dark clouds
filled with electricity
and watch
as the sky is illuminated
as strike after strike
is sent from within
to the world waiting below.

Time passes me by
all I see is black and white
colors elude me.

The bags of his eyes begin to fill
begin to weigh down his entire being.
He shudders, lips trembling
as the dam breaks and the tears fall.
He screams but nobody hears
his pain, his agony.
His body lies useless
as an emotional barrage
begins ripping him apart.
What could he have done
to help if anything?
His body trembles as sleep
takes him away
to the only place
he'll see her again.

I want you to know
that the pain you are feeling
is only temporary
that the heartache you're
experiencing
will soon be gone.
I want you to know
that you are all loved
and even though
you hurt today
you will thrive tomorrow.
I want you to know
that you are all beautiful
on the inside and outside
and are perfect just how you are.
I want you to know
that you are all
wonderful people.

He laces his shoes
steps onto the court
a fire burns bright
in his eyes.
He flashes a grin
as shot
after shot
goes right through.
You try to contain him
but you know
you can not
because he is Kevin Durant
he is unstoppable.

I know you're out there somewhere
and someday we'll find each other
in this endless world
full of endless faces
we will find one another
and both of us will experience
what it is like to find
the true puzzle piece
that completes our heart.
We have both experienced heartache
and we have both experienced love
but neither of us have truly felt
the fullest extent of human passion
that we will discover
when we find one another.

I still love her
though I do not know why
our time together was
short lived
but made me feel
so alive
I lie awake hoping
that I can find love again
that the passion returns
and a new romance
begins.

I was at the top of the world
the highest of highs
but with one simple message
you said your goodbyes
so now I'm shaken
hurt down to the core
fall down onto my knees
and slam my fists on the floor
because I know that
you love your ex so much more
than you could ever love me that's for sure
yes I gave you my heart
knowing you would keep it safe
but I was wrong you broke it
like an empty *** vase
so now the tears fall down like
I got sprayed with some mace
and now my heart is going
crazy in such a frantic race
no I never thought a person
could feel the way I do
heart is broken
but still in love with you
I just want so bad
for us to begin again
but I'm afraid that it won't
I'm afraid this is the end.

I put a smile on my face each and every day
just trying so hard to bury this pain.
But no matter how much and how hard I try
the hurt escapes from deep inside.
I've tried to move on I've tried to forget
but just hearing your name makes my heart skip.
So now I'm lying in bed all teary eyed
hoping that this isn't our final goodbye.

I know you've been through so much
and ache so deep inside.
I can't begin to understand how
you are so strong.
You've been abused
you've had your heart broken
you've cried a trillion tears.
Through all of what you've been through
you still are so sweet towards all
even the ones who have hurt you.
I know that it will take time
for your wounds to heal
and maybe not all of them will.
But what I can do is always
be there for you
always be your shoulder to cry on
always be there to answer your
calls at 3 in the morning.
You are the love of my life
and I will not allow for another
person to hurt you in anyway
shape or form.
I will try to heal the
breaks that have been
created in your beautiful heart.
You're my soulmate.

She lies there oblivious to her surroundings
the only thing she knows is hurt.
She has yet to have felt the best emotion of all
Love.
She is swimming in grief and pain
but yet she won't let it show to others.
She lies there oblivious to her surroundings
while she slides the hot steel knife
deep into her skin.
The bite of the metal calms her
relaxes her.
She does this to force her pain elsewhere
but all it does is show the wounds
no one thought was there.

I used to lie awake at night with overwhelming sorrow
until you came into my life.
With you I now am happy
depression gone.
I can sleep soundly and have no fear
of waking up sobbing.
The moment I met you I knew
you were special
I knew you were sweet and amazing
but I had no idea that one day you'd be mine.

The feel of your lips pressed against mine
so amazing, so divine.
I never want this kiss to end
so hold me forever my sweet Kaitlin.

Hugging not wanting to let go
my chin resting upon your head.
You look up at me with those beautiful blue eyes
and my heart begins to melt.
Butterflies burst from within
and I am overwhelmingly happy.
All I can do is smile because
words become lost as I try to speak.
But even if I could they would not
serve any justice towards how I feel.

It seems like forever since I've felt the way I do
heart beats skipping with just the thought of you.
I feel like I'm in love but it's too soon to know
but every moment spent with you
just makes these feelings grow.

Hold my hand, don't let it go
walk with me forever.
Stay with me as we grow old
our love will never sever.

27 down and insurmountable feat
streak on the line for the Miami Heat
They fight, they rally, they scratch and they claw
They defeat the odds and leave us in awe.

Everyone plays a part in the game of life
some are meant to succeed and thrive
while many are starving and struggling to survive.

This game has top tier people who rule the rest
while there is people on the bottom rung just trying their best
there is people like you and me and if food's on the table we feel quite blessed.

The people on the top control most of the cash
while those down below struggle to even make a splash
even if given an opportunity it's gone in a flash.

To the greedy, the overly wealthy, the top tier class
I have something to say while it maybe rash
you can kiss my poor, lower class, white, American ***.

crazy story lines.
This book

Believe in yourself
take hold of the wheel
let loose your emotions
feel feel feel.
Let out that sadness
you hold deep inside
and let your happiness
rise and climb.
Don't let others
put you down
be who you are
and be it proud.

Crippling words you spout from your lips
breaking my spirit, sinking my ship.
Your words are so hurtful, they tear me apart
if they were a game I'd be sent back to the start.
Your words leave me empty, I'm dust in the wind
but your words read the truth, this is really the end.

Red roses
violets so blue
the perfect gift
from me to you.
With candy of course
you have to have that
and a Valentines card
with a cute kitty cat.
This day is so sweet
but I just wish it would end
because I almost forgot
we are only just friends.

Frantic beating
from my heart
hyperventilation starts
mind races
body numbs
head pounding
like erratic drums
an anxious fit
won't go away
with me forever
it's home to stay.

Another day
has passed me by
the sun has set
the moon did rise.
I look above
at the moon so bright
and dream of love
of Mrs. Right.

Holding her hand
he watches her
take her final breath.
A tear trickles down his face
he feels his heart tremor
and falls down, motionless.
His beloved was taken away
so he chased after her
through the clouds
of the heavens above.

Take a look at yourself
what do you see
is this the person
you'd imagined you'd be
sunken eyes from sleepless nights
bitterness you hide inside
you try to hide your pain
push away your problems
just to feel ashamed
ashamed to hide from yourself
and ashamed to admit
you were wrong.

Left alone
outside in the cold.
A child so young
could do no wrong.
left to die
can only cry.
Adoption was
once an option
no the answer.
But you threw
her away
and now you're in jail
to never again see the light
of day.

Thoughts wander
tears fall.
What just happened?
What went wrong?
You said you loved me
well apparently not.
You left me broken
no second thought.
You said I'm the ONLY one for you
Ha, you probably said that to him too.

Entangled in bed sheets
lost in each other.
Trapped by the covers
together forever.

The greatest player
I've ever seen
The heart of Raven nation
a Superbowl M.V.P
You'll be missed so much
when this season does end
So Baltimore win it all
win it for him.

I see you with him
and feel broken inside,
yet all the while
I am happy for you.
Yes I am jealous
but seeing you smile
and watching that
love and bliss
flow from you
I can't help but be
happy too.
I guess it's time
to finally let go.
