Getting back on your feet.
JD Dec 2014
So much happening
you look to the sky,
the wind blows
you float up high.
No control
you think you'll die,
for only a second
but then you realize,
not a moment passes
that struck you with fear.
opening up your mind,
to new ideas,
And when the moments right
you'll begin to fall
with one tumbling motion
and no remorse at all.
The ground will shake ,
and the wind shall  blow,
but all that matters,
is at least you know
*That sometimes you'll hit an all time low,
But it only leads you to where you need to go.
I Based this off a dream

The Little Puppy
JD Apr 2015
The cute little puppy
who always wanted to be picked,
he'd lay on his belly
and roll over for a trick

but no matter how much he keeps on rolling
the people walked by
and kept ignoring

So this is when he decided to bark
and that was when the hitting would start.

This little puppy
now grows old
feeling sick
and needs a home.

But one day a door opens
and she walks by.
This lady in green
has now arrived.

She looks at him
deep in his eyes.
He starts to growl
she then realized

This puppy really needs a home
such one, he could call his own.
So she takes him, so far away
the puppy once again, began to play.
Here's a story for you

It takes only a ten seconds to change everything
Whether your in control of it or not.
It can be done by acting out
Or just hearing What someone has to say.
It could be great
or become a disaster.
Just when things seem to be okay
And nothing can be taken away, because, you already lost
"everything"
There will always be something that could be taken away..
Seems easy to say
"I'm used to it"
In full honesty
You never are.
"At least not for myself."
But it's one of those times again I have no control
And everyone around me will just say
"Well that *****."
While all I can do is quietly nod in agreement to my closest friends..

Once again,
It only takes ten seconds to change everything.
I wrote this because this is how I get through things. I write.
I won't care about opinions or advice.
I just wanted to have something to say to someone who won't make a difderence.
it's nice to know that someone at least saw what I had to say

I won't force you.
JD Apr 2015
Laying in bed, texting you all night.
the funny thing was, we'd never fight.
I remember the day, and what you looked like
back when we'd both say, how we feel.

I have so little now
most pictures are gone.
But I still have a sign,
Welcome to Wilmington

You see I'm here
and I don't wanna go away
I'm literally trying to think of what to say.

You're my best friend and more
you were always here, when I hit the floor
But one day you're gone
and I had to get back up

It was so long
there were days of almost giving up
not that I wanted to
but for what it looked, I was scared.

You can make me happy
pretty much anywhere.
I can be alone,
and wait for you

It's been so long
I have nothing to lose.
Because it's you I love
the one I choose.

If you could see
I won't let you lose.

Things are different then they were before
I'm not always the same
I grew up for sure.

I'll respect you no matter what you chose.
I'll help you when you think you're gonna lose.

I just don't want to be used
and I'm not gonna force you to pick a dude.

I just hope the answers come clear
for I already know what I want my dear.

Goodnight
JD Aug 2014
Imagine what we could be

Living in nothing but our dreams
Occasionally giving in to the scenes
Valuing
Everything you are to me.

Young forever
Only in our hearts
Understand that we'll never be apart

Besides, tomorrow's here
And another dream has disappeared
But
Eventually nighttime shall come again.

Anything really about being alive
Reality is that you're my mom
Young at heart and always strong

A shy fire
JD Feb 2016
So silent but, quick in a move
Once you start, you keep on going
Nothing really slows you down.
You only need that first push,
to really heat things up.
Then, you get loud and destructive
Leaving us no choice,
we have to put you out.
That's why your always Shy
When meeting new people
Just waiting for them to turn around.

Just laugh and smile
JD Sep 2015
Life's a big joke
You've gotta learn when to laugh and smile at it,
try not to take things so seriously.
Sometimes, "like a joke"
it's pushed too far and you don't find it funny anymore
although, when's it really too far?
not everyone will be happy
because, someone's always offended.
So try to laugh out loud when things get rough,
bring an impression with those dimples
show'em all that you're tough!
So who's the one here really looking like a fool?
When you're the one enjoying life
by following this simple rule.

Tragedy "A Cheated Fate"
JD Mar 2015
Destiny has cheated me
upon what I couldn't see
Looking back at who I love
only praying to the stars above

That the girl I idealize  
is now in the arms of another guy
wishing that I could have changed things
am I really that's all to blame?

How could I have cheated fate?
It was so clear I could suffocate
the fact that I am no longer
the man that you deserve.

Without you dear I have nothing left
so now I take my final breath
to say goodbye to the one I love
to watch you fly while I burn below.
NOT DEPRESSED HERE!
I thought more of an opera kind of feel to this
Like a dramatic story.

Digging your way out
JD Nov 2014
Seems easy to forget, yet it's so hard
why do i dare go this far?
To have something you want
but forced to let go
am I crawling my way out, or just digging a hole.
I see something now and it seems kinda bright,
but I cant see who's standing there at the end of this light.
perhaps its a hand to pull me out, or judgment demanding for me to go down.
whatever it is, I can smell the air. To feel that breeze going through my hair.
what a dream to have, I could finally be free.
to live the day where I can just be me.

YELL, ARGUE, SCREAM, AND SHOUT!
is this what a family is all about?

Just getting under each others skin,
but does anyone actually ever win?

I'm sure there's more that we can endure
while sharing this pain, we're all to blame.

but have you ever thought to yourself
that even when your wrong with somebody else,

that family always pulls on through
no matter what it is that you do.

Don't forget either that you've got some friends too,
so what are you gonna do?

love them
because they love you.

Four walls
JD Nov 2015
Four walls of white
Looking so wide
While slowly they're closing in.

Lips shut tight
Not a mumble or a sound
The door just won't open.

The Windows have bars
And the tiles are falling
What ever happened to the light?

I'm in a box with one way in,
No way out,
This is not alright...

It's getting cramped.

Look at these walls
They've just turned black..
left all alone
Yet, with a Feeling of being attacked.

I'm scared.

Please don't come tho,
You may be next.

Paying for a sin
That is I.
And just like that
The walls collide.
I'm just feeling kinda down today.
Sorry.

but ill be there one day, and ill whisper in your ear
you have nothing to fear, for i am here.
whether in your heart or by your side
I'm with you for life, even through death.
nothing will stop me..
To make sure your safe, i would lose my wings
to watch you fly while the angels sing.
They may say i have fallen, but i'll just look up and smile
for i have already fallen...

Dreams
JD Mar 2016
Dreams are a fiction reality
Where sometimes it brings you to a wonderful place
While other times your left in your own hell.
How You wake up and take it is more important.
Are you happy?
Left in a confusion?
Or just get up like nothing happened
because, you know it didn't.
For myself,  Dreams follow me all day
Eventually until they're either forgotten
Or the next night comes and a new dream appears.
I find it funny that a good dream
Can now be left as a nightmare
And a nightmare isn't so scary anymore.
Although tell me this,
When you know it's a dream
Do you wanna wake up
Or just see how it goes?

Courage is always hidden inside
Guarded by all the fears and lies

Together we can seek for the end
but, lets take it one step until then.

Does it Fit?
JD Jul 2016
This doesn't fit..
Where in the hell can I find one that fits?
Uhhh...
I know others have them,
some seem pretty obvious
but, I feel a great sorrow for them.
Although, I guess I should just go look in a mirror then, huh.?
I don't want to,
so I wont.
Not until I can find one that fits..

Do you have one?
Do you know where I can get one?
I need to know,
you see, people can just take it off
although, It's not reusable for anyone else,
It wont fit,
It only can for that one person.
Only them as an individual.

I've asked before,
In my own kind of way.
where they've gotten theirs
but, they seemed confused

"friends
people"

"You can't just get one,
why would you even want one?"

-I just do.

"Is it for you?"
"Is it for them?"

-Don't ask.

I leave and go home,
I should look in a mirror..
Maybe that will help determine a size.
I'm afraid to tho..
whenever I look, it's never the same as the pictures
not anymore.
why are the pictures on the wall so different?

-finally face to face

I feel my skin
I look in my eyes
although, every time I see another guy..

-wait...

I think I found one,
what I've been looking for,
and I've been wearing it all along,
masquerade I endure.

I try to take it off,
it's really sticking on tight.
The skin finally rips,
I see myself in sight.

The pictures looked the same again
just a little bit dim,
In fact that's the same face.
Its just always been hidden.

I couldn't believe it though,
That's what I looked like.
I almost forgot..

I've had what I was looking for,
a mask to cover my face.
What I didn't know was,
that the mask was fearsome itself.
Had it almost consumed me entirely,
While I was looking for a new one..
or one in general.

I can see my face again
all grey but, with circles of light around my eyes
a glimmer of hope.
I no longer see that other guy.
the mask can only fit once
so it's all okay.

This is the last thing I can say,

Just don't lose yourself under your own skin,
Always know there's another day.
Never forget there's another way.
To express towards others or yourself,
That you have the strength to admit for help.

Just look in the mirror
tell me what you see,
are you wearing a mask?
or are you free?

Follow your heart.
JD Jan 2015
Who ever takes your heart
shall be the one that never parts.
Forever on your mind
Your willing to give up your time.

"Patience"
a key,
"virtue"
a need.

Tho it maybe hard for the moment
the future shall come,
and if you give up now
well then you're done.

So leave it to fate
or take it in your own hands,
I just pray to God that you even have a plan.
For love only comes once,

So don't ***** this up!
And for anyone else out there
I'd only like to say,
**Good Luck.

Dreams vs Reality
JD Oct 2014
In one moment
everything appears.
You don't think about it
it just seems clear.

What you need to do,
why you're there.
You bound no fear,
By neither Death nor Despair.

To give your life,
if it were a dream.
Would you do the same,
if it were reality?

Well the answer must be clear,
You hold those who're dear.
With the action of no fear..
It leads to the next awakening.
I base this off a dream.

That I was always the the one who was wrong.
Even tho I would try to make it right,
It always seems to lead to another fight.
I just want things to be alright...
But, your answer is to keep me out of sight.
As if you've concluded your own light,
While I still try to give this all my might.
Even tho it may not be bright,
Your worth something to me.
Your worth my life.
So until we talk again,
which I hope we might.
All I can really say is,
Goodnight.

There's a tingle in my chest
Hair going up but,
I'm not cold.
Finding a moment of rest
Deep within my soul

She's like Angel,
Flying within the breeze
And she sees me...

How could I ever lose her?
If I did,
What would I do?
She's a million miles away from me
Yet, it all still feels so new

She beautiful...
And only God knows for who..
But she saves me.

Yeah she saves me...

If I could only see her,
Day after day..
I wouldn't ever care if we ran out of things to say.
All I need is this women
That's all I really need.

She's my baby.
And she saved me.

My view of life
JD Dec 2015
This world.
A place where we're force to live
Under its seemingly endless amount of tests
Apon with it's vast beauty
And hardships to endevor.

What are we searching for?
That's a question I can not answer..

As humans, our intelligences as of now "looks high."
We have an understanding of what's around us, Yet we know nothing at all of why we're here,
If there is any reason at all..

Some of us try to find out our own answers
Although, it's normally just "what we wanted all along."

Maybe the reason we want someone is because, we know we'll all go..

Living forever
We'd have nothing we'd want.
"Like a person who only has money,
They say it can't buy happiness."
So maybe, that's the same with life.

Our happiness comes from knowing we could lose anything,
And that this is actually everything.

Family
Friends
Your love
And all exsperiences of life.

Why else would we rather sacrifice ourselves for another?
Unless the life you have really does means nothing
But everything to someone.
just a concept of another greater importance
A symbol that is "yourself"
Representing the importance of life
With it's meanless definition,
Which to us, is important.

"I just can't eat."

not a mumble
or crumble

Once life gets sweeter
I'd be able to eat.

let the words of this pencil speak out my mind.
Anger and rage held up inside,
As  sadness withers from thy heart.
pain and agony begins to start.
The beautiful passion for love I have,
but scared to say for it might lag.
Starting with the wind
but ending with it gone,
so enjoy what i say "having fun."
Keeping a friend
They're with you forever,
but then see another gone right out the window.
although remembering the good times,
it makes you think.
life ant half bad,
but sometimes its the worst.
Tho put a smile on my face and see thy true colors,
For nothing will take away your smile
not unless you let it.

what's the right or wrong
will you follow your own insecurity
or perhaps open your eyes to who you really are.
Maybe no one has to know
maybe no one deserves to know
"You"
there's no need to prove a thing to anyone
no, they need to see the most unpredictable moments
to where you show yourself
without givin any thought,
without trying to impress
but instead,
you're just being you..
That's all you should have to do,
you shouldn't try to impress him
or her
or anyone
no, just yourself.
push yourself pass your own limits
until one day you find someone,
someone who CAN go further then you,
someone who CAN'T realize it yet,
someone who can go further then THEMSELVES
"because of you."
be as you are,
for your days will come
where your abilities of being yourself
will change the world of a whole other person
and you didn't even have to try so hard.
yes there will be rough times
and yes there will be good
although,
you may not even notice it,
not for years to come
but, you make all the difference
when you're just being yourself.

Hardly a dream
JD Oct 2015
I'm hardly anything left
just a daze in a dream
you went your separate path
I walk alone on these streets
until I fade away
I'll keep shouting your name
hopefully as a reminder
for you to dream of us again.

Lifting The Storm
JD Jul 2015
A storm followed me
day after day,
while the  rain poured
I had nothing to say.

So you came along
and made it go away,
the clouds have lifted
it's now a sunny day

The skies are blue
with not a shade of grey
and it's all thanks to you
for coming my way

I really don't know what else I can say
besides, you're beautiful
So here, I shall stay.

What am I?
JD Sep 2014
Im there when needed most,
you either like me or you don't,
But I'll go behind your back one day,
and leave you with nothing to say.

Life is like a sound
You correct it when it's out of  tune.

Have I mentioned?
JD Sep 2014
Light up your ****, while drinking more beer.
Have you even noticed yet? That everyone disappeared.
You could have done so much better throughout all those years.
Instead you decide to stay in, holding all the tears.

Have i mentioned that you're NOT alone?
That maybe you actually have a place too CALL a home?
For our darkest hour, we all have a time of need.
Just for you to listen I'm begging on my knees..

look at what you were, to what you are now.
I hope it makes a difference to just hear me out.
Your a beautiful person, hanging by a rope.
And please don't let go, for i'll give you hope.

So could we get rid of all the **** and the beer?
that's better now.. wait, whats that i hear?
The people.. they've reappeared
it's time to say goodbye to all those fears.

Say hello to the new beginning.
