If you think about the concept of time travel
and all the things that could change
just from doing one thing differently
Then you would have to believe that you have been everywhere,
are everywhere, have done everything
and are already dead.
The thing about me you see
Is I'm afraid to be me
So held down by these chains I wear
Cause I'm afraid to be free

Free your mind
Free yourself
Free your hands
Then free everyone else

The thing about me you see
Is I fall in love to easily
So caught up in a fairytale
Cause I'm afraid of what I won't find

Find your muse
Find your love
Find your friends
Then find ascension above

The thing about me you see
Is I'm blind to my own problems
So afraid to see what's right in front of me
I'm a victim of my mind's judgement

Judge your perfections
Judge your flaws
Judge your reflection
Then judge no one else cause...

The thing about me you see
Is I have troubles accepting the truth
Cause when everything I know is false
I'm afraid I can't trust a word you say

Say what you want
Say what you need
Say anything you want to say
Then say you'll no longer make yourself bleed

The thing about me you see
Is I've forgotten who I am
I'm no longer ok, I don't know how to get away
Cause I've abandoned all my plans

Plan your future
Plan your past
Plan what's next
Then plan what's last

The thing about me you see
Is I don't know what to do
I'm lost inside my sorrow, still hanging on til tomorrow
Cause I'm afraid of what you'll do to my heart if I let myself forgive you

You set me free
You're what I'd always hoped I'd find
You know there's no way I can judge you
Then you know I'd mispronounce every word I'd try to say

The thing about me you see
Is I've given up my plans
Cause they all involved you know who
And that's fine, cause who needs her
When I'm happy being with you...
I hate how much you need me
And I hate that you can’t admit it
I hate that I can’t trust you
And I hate that you don’t get why
I hate that you hurt me
And I hate that you can’t understand how much
I hate that Iris reminds me of you
And I hate how so much other songs do too
I hate that you’re so easy to fall for
But most of all I hate that I can’t let myself fall for you again.
"You truly are a wicked being".
Said the hero upon seeing
just how easily he had been caught
although he had bravely fought.
He looked up to face his foe
"You're supposed to tell me your evil plan you know".
The villain let out an evil laugh
and put on his red scarf.
"Oh yes that, well I suppose so,
and thats why I have prepared this video,
that describes my plan with little detail,
and don't try to stop me, you'll only fail.
Here I'll put it on
while I go off to put my plan into action".
"Wait" said the hero " But thats not how its meant to be,
You're supposed to stay here and explain it to me
so I can stop you"!
"Yes I know, but I'm the evil guy and I don't have to,
anyway I've got to go, now if you don't mind I'll
just leave you here to die
goodbye".
The wanderer had travelled for at least a day
Weary and tired looked for somewhere to stay
After walking for miles, just wandering around
She came across a perculiar little town
No signposts of entry to welcome her in
Simply a man who asked "Are you insane"?
The wanderer thought this was strange question
and instead asked the way to the inn
the man said insane we have no houses or businesses
as we are all insane
the wanderer thought this too was strange
and instead asked where she was
the man replied you are insane
I am insane
everybody in this town is insane
the wanderer she wondered if she too was insane as the man had said
the wanderer was determined not to stay insane
and ran of as fast as she could
the man watched her run and thought it strange
"They all do that, don't they, why does no one want to be in our wonderful town of Sane
The town's name was Sane so all that entered it were considered "Insane"
Don't hate yourself
when your friends just up and leave
they've stopped caring about you a while ago
or so you've been led to believe
when your friends
just can't be found
stop looking already
a part of you knows they'll never be around
don't feel down
when your friends start being fools
you've always been a great person
and now they're just tools
so don't keep
wanting to hang around them
they've changed now
something tainted them.
So don't follow them
you're not a sheep
your future is your's
and you've got a life to keep.
When the hell did all my friends get so popular?
And when did I get left behind?
Hey does anyone want me to read anything of their's?
Why is it always the pretty (not the good-looking but the pretty) people that feel they are worthless?
I love you all (in a way)
You assume that everything I write is about you
So here I wrote one especially for you
You want to find some hint of love for you
Well to tell the truth I still adore you
But I can’t tell you that
Because you broke my heart already
Yeah you messed up my mind
Yeah you left me confused, now I don’t feel fine
And yet you can’t feel that pain
Tell me what did you have to gain

Now I’ve said that I don’t need you
And It’s true (no I don’t need you)
And I know there’s just no future in which you’re mine
And that’s fine

(Chorus)
Cause loving you is destroying me
Yeah it’s hard to know if you’re toying with me
Cause you’ve done it before
Who’s to say you can’t hurt me more
I’d like to say that I don’t love you one bit
But I just can’t say it

Yeah now my minds just a wreck
You’re a pain in the neck
And yet you don’t know why
Yeah cause you’re still high dry
Yeah and I want to drag you down
And help you drown
Because I’ve been drowning
Ever since you pushed me in

[Chorus]

I try not to write about you these days
But sometimes I do it anyway
But nevertheless you always say
“Hey is that about me”?
And I always say to interpret it your own way
Cause you’re wrong to assume
That every love song is about you
Cause I don’t have any making up to do

[Chorus]

I find it hard to trust others
And you knew that
And that’s the thing I’ll never understand

Yet you ask why I still talk to you
I thought you would know
I’m too nice to just abandon you

Cause I’ve loved you and it destroyed me
Was I really nothing more than a boy to you
Well I’ve been here before
And the pain, well there’s more now
I’d like to say that I could still love you
But I know how that ends…
I know I've said this before
but this time it's true
I know you don't have to believe me
but I'm over hating you
Cause this time I was wrong

Oh and I know
You've tried so hard to make amends
I've pushed you away
Yet you still wanted... to stay friends
I just want you to understand
(want you to understand)
The power's in your hands
(the power's in your hands)

Oh I've been such a fool
I'm over acting like I'm cool-er
than you (or anyone)
Cause this time I was wrong

Yeh this time I was wrong
Yeh this time I was wrong
Yeh this time, oh yeh this time
You were right all along

Oh I've been such an idiot
I don't expect you to forgive me yet
And all of the neglect
Was born from the pain I felt
But its over now
Yeh-e-eh-e-ehhh
Cause this time I was wrong

Cause I've had time to think it through
(My minds clear and I feel all right now)
So I can't hate you for being yourself
Girl you gotta let yourself shine through
Stop trying to clean up everybody else's mess
Cause you're better than this

Don't ever let anyone tell you you're a liar
Girl you got to live like you're made of fire
Be unpredictable
And light you're path
Just be careful who you burn
Cause this time...
You were right all along...
I wonder why clocks tick, tock
it annoys me so I get a rock
and at the clock it flys
the clock smashes with a thousand sighs.
Even clocks have a rhyme
saying tick tock tick tock, all on time.
Don't you wish you could go back and do something once more.
But that's impossible, something that you could only wish for.
In a book something could happen twice
how awesome and nice
if it were true,
but stop dreaming, wake up i'd have to tell you.
This is one of my earlier poems written 28/10/10
This Christianity
Is insanity
Madness for humanity
Everything will fade away
I just want you all to know how much you mean to me
Sure I could of told you all individually
But instead I wrote this mess of sentences that I'll call poetry...

My sister had a premonition the other day
Engraved in the pavement my two favourite letters 'k d'
Ink touches paper in a symphony of colours
And I got something for you, a rose my love
A gift for my greek goddess
or maybe you're really Loki
Either way as long as I'm with you my mystery girl
There'll be three times the smiles...
There you go guys, I'm hoping you should all know which of those sentences/ lines I put in there for you.
And I want you all to know that no matter what, I love you all unconditonally, unless that seems weird in which case, *Ninja Smoke*.
Hey where'd he go?
To tell you the truth
I don't much care
if you love another
because to be completely honest
I've never liked your hair
I've always wished it was light brown

Don't change for me
just be yourself
just stay the same
don't be a fool like everybody else

And I don't really care
so I won't tell anymore lies
now this might make you cry
but truth be told
I've never liked your eyes
I've always wished they were hazel

Don't lose yourself
amongst the crowd
you gotta sing it out
you gotta make sure you're loud
when you tell the world
I'm not gonna be like you

And I'm sorry to tell you this
I don't want us to be foes
and I won't try to hide the truth from you
because I think you should know
I've never liked your clothes
who are you pretending to be

There's no one quite like you
don't change for them
so just shout it out as loud as you can
I won't change for you because this is who I am

Now again I fear I must tell you
that what I say is true
and I don't want to seem mean
but  I know its kinda true
I've never quite liked you
you better change
you better be exactly how I want you to be
no...
Because I'm happy with my self
I love my hair
and I don't much care
because I still love my eyes
no more listening to your lies
and I love my clothes
because its what I chose
but most of all I love being me
now I see
i don't need you here
why are you still standing there
why don't you go
and criticise yourself
you're not perfect
you're no better than anybody else
we're
all
the
same...
Letting go is never easy
it's always going to be hard
that's just how it is
but if you can, I'll write you a card
giving up on dreams
is heartbreaking
believe me it's even harder
when your mind is shaking
but if you can
I'll write you a song
I'm sure it will help you
to move on
but right now you'll be sad
and you just want to be left alone
so I hope you don't mind
because all I wrote, was this poem...
If we were zombies could we still fall in love and live happily ever after?
Don't ever dip a Mars bar into one of those Le Snak cheese dips.
EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!
Another new day
Time to put that mask back on and act like everythings ok.
No Ice Climbers in new Smash Bros
I'm really upset
I don't want to only see things if they're popular...
So show me something else.
Hi how are you doing?
*(Why do I always have to be the one to start the conversation?)
Feel free to answer the question if you want to.
Hello loyal and disloyal followers, yeah thats right I know you're there.
Do you dudes and dudettes get sick of my non-poetic posts?
And if so are you saying that I should write something properly cause if so then I will, I'll try to write something about you dudes, but not something for each of you, just like one poem or song for all of you.?
And yeah dudes I know you probably won't respond to this post, but I'd appreciate it if you did, but whatever right.
And yes in case you couldn't guess I'm pretty bored.
Hey dudes and dudettes. So I haven't been on here in a while so  If you want me to check out anything that you've posted and I've missed, then let me know.
I want to know what's bad about my writing.
I never get criticism,  and that's boring.
I want to know what people really think.
So let me know.
Never before have I faced such a formidable foe as Adobe Photoshop
I give in, it has bested me.
Oh **** it, I need to make this rhyme.
Holy komodo dragons, a bee...
You know what I don't like?
People that have over 500 followers and follow less than 10.
But you know what annoys me more?
When these 'popular' people ask us little people to check out something of theirs.
And yet they're too good to check out our work.
Am I not popular anymore
Oh well
I'll be fine
Is there something wrong with me if I DON'T WANT TO READ LOADS OF REPOSTED POETRY?
I'm sure that someone else has said this before but whatever I'll say it anyways.

People don't get to choose what they look like (with few exceptions such as plastic surgery, and even then. ..) so what right do we really have to say that a person is hot, beautiful,  pretty,  cute, ugly or average,  based on how we view their ****** appearance.  Fall in love with one's personality and what's hidden beyond their appearance.
Or don't, whichever right, I mean who the hell am I to tell you how to live.
To write a ten word poem, I don't know how
If this life is false
then what is truly real
all these painful emotions
or this love that I feel
if we're not truly writers
then can we find our voice
if this life we know
it was never really our choice
and if what we know
is all just lies
then why do we
cover our eyes
if we're not dreaming
then we're not living
and then who am I
to tell you
another lie...
I don't really know
who I am anymore.
What happened to the world,
the world I used to adore,
the world I loved,
for filling me with hate.
What happened to the old me,
the me that hated being called your mate.
The me that hated smiling and laughing,
the me that hated being happy,
arrrr, just thinking about it makes me feel like barfing.
Who am I right now, I still don't know
Where is the me that depised being called nice,
will I ever find that me again,
that me with the heart covered with ice.
Why can't I find the me that wrote for himself
and hated everyone equally,
including himself.
Oh why can't I find that me,
I feel a weird emotion without him,
but I cant' seem to cry,
even though I know he'll be back...
because "Evil Never Truly Dies".
"And it annoys me when people, no wait people annoy me".
Why is it that some dreams seem so real
and some memories so false
Does anyone else have fake memories?
"Suddenly I See" (KT Tunstall)
Just how "Heartless" (A Day To Remember)
You are cause, "I'm The Best Thing That Never Happened" (We Are The In Crowd)
To you, all you wanted was my "Attention" (We Are The In Crowd)
Now that's gone so "What Do You Want From Me" (Adam Lambert)
And I bet "If I Leave" (A Day To Remember)
Then you'll start to "Breakdown" (Tonight Alive ft Benji Madden)
Cause you're such a "Lonely Girl" (Tonight Alive)
So I'll "Stay, Stay, Stay" (Taylor Swift)
If you'll "Kiss Me Again" (We Are The In Crowd ft Alex Gaskarth)
I have two other poems like this, I think they're titled What Was The Name Of That Song, and  What Was The Name Of That Song Again
"All I Want" (A Day To Remember)
is for "You And I" (Anarbor)
to "Shine On" (Jet)
but it's not "All About Us" (He Is We, ft. Owl City)
and "If I Leave" (A Day To Remember)
will you come "And Run" (He Is We)
"A Thousand Miles" (Vanessa Carlton)
with me "When The Darkness Comes" (Colbie Caillat)
but let's not "Blame It On The Rain" (He Is We)
and don't think that my "Darkside" (Kelly Clarkson)
exists just to "Prove You Wrong" (He Is We)
I know "It's Complicated" (A Day To Remember)
but "Since U Been Gone" (A Day To Remember cover)
I've been feeling like your "Number One Enemy" (Daisy Dares You, ft Chipmunk)
and all I want to do is write you a "Love Song" (Sara Bareilles)
to show you that I'm "Still Into You" (Paramore)
So don't think that "Big Yellow Taxi" (Counting Crows)
is going to be your "Savior" (Rise Against)
but "Here It Goes Again" (Ok Go)
so don't think about "Everything I'm Not" (The Veronicas)
while I just sit here with "My Shiny Teeth And Me" (Chip Skylark)
trying to catch "Fireflies" (Owl City)
in a jar shaped like a "Skyscraper" (Demi Lovato)
so don't act like "It's The End Of The World As We Know It" (REM)
because in "One Week" (The Barenaked Ladies)
we'll all just be "Heroes And Thieves" (Vanessa Carlton)
The weather outside is "Colder Than My Heart, If You Can Imagine" (A Day To Remember)
but that won't stop me from "Bleeding Out" (Imagine Dragons)
and you know I won't be "Happy" (Pharrell Williams)
as I am "Without You Again" (Sam Shaber)
I would never try to force you to "Stay" (Mayday Parade)
don't try to tell me I need "Therapy" (All Time Low)
until you hear "Both Sides Of The Story" (We Are The In Crowd)
you've always told me to be "Brave" (Sara Bareilles)
but now I'm afraid of the "Demons" (Imagine Dragons)
I'm sure we can "Let It Go" (Demi Lovato)
after all we're just "Human" (Christina Perri)
as long as you know "I'll Be"  (Edwin McCain)
more than "Weightless" (All Time Low)
up here like a "Satellite" (Rise Against)
but now you're back so let's "Begin Again" (Taylor Swift)
and "Step" (Vampire Weekend)
to our "First Dance" (Nevershoutnever!)
before we sit together under the "Starlight" (Taylor Swift)
until we're "Out of Time" (A Day To Remember)
If you liked this poem and haven't read my other poem "What Was The Name of That Song" then you should read it if you have a chance.
Oh no your phone's ringing
even though its off the hook
but that's probably because its a mobile
why can't you seem to find the answers in any book
if you're walking down the street
could you even spare a look.
What would you be without us
We are what made you what you are
but what do you care
now that you're a rising star.
So what are you going to do
when your fans abandon you.
Don't abandon the little people who helped you get to where you are.
This is a poem about all the celebrities that believe they are above us normal people.
"Do you even know who I am"?
"No, do you"?
Which me was I
When we met
Who's eyes did
You gaze into
Did they see you too
Or did they just stare ahead
Like a mindless drone
Who are you?
I'm not sure I even know
but whatever
I guess I'll try to tell you though

I excel at being different
I mean, why would I want to be
just like you
I'm just hoping someday you'll see
I'm happy...
just being me.

Who are you?
I'm not sure I'll ever know
Who are you?
please don't ask me that again
Who are you?
I just don't know anymore
Who are you...
and what do you mean to them?

Why do you care
if I'm not perfect
why should my life
constantly be wrecked
by someone...
So insecure
so immature
someone so unlike me.

Who are you?
I'm not sure I'll ever know
Who are you?
please don't ask me that again
Who are you?
I just don't know anymore
Who are you...
and what do you mean to them?

I don't care if you don't like
who I am
It's my life
and you can't just change my plans
you can't change me
you can't stop me...
from being who I'm meant to be.

Who are you?
I know now I'm just me
Who are you?
so I'll say it again
Who are you?
my eyes now open I can see
and I know now
that it's just who I am.

No more tears
no more fears
no more stone cold stares
no more faking
no more hiding
no more pretending I'm like you.

It's who I am
It's who I am
and I don't care...
because I'm not like you...
I'm not much of a song writer but whatever right.
This song is pretty much just about like parents or friends that aren't happy with who you are, so they try to change you and make you less happy, but in the end you'll still be you, so be happy with yourself.
This song has a tune similar to Everywhere by Michelle Branch.
Yes you can say no.
Even though I haven't been posting, I have been writing. I normally only post stuff that I write specifically for certain people so yeah, I haven't really needed to post anything major in a while. But I'll post a new poem if at least 1 person wants me to...... or maybe I'll just show them the poem in private. Who knows.
Gosh I ramble  don't I.
Why is it we change our views as soon as we meet certain people.
Why?
People say to just be yourself
and when I am they tell me that
guys aren't meant to be pretty
but what if being pretty is me...
Why are our feelings of sadness so much stronger than feelings of happiness?
Why does sadness inspire people to write such beautiful things?
Why are we only happier after we're sad?
Why can't happiness inspire us as much as sadness or anger?
Why does sadness love us so much even though most of us don't like it?
Why do my followers seem to hate me?
How can you explain colours to someone who can't see?

Why do people bother telling them what colour their hair, clothes and eyes are?

Whose voice does a mute person hear in their heads?

Do they hear their own voice or the voice of someone close to them?
"Never rule out the ridiculous possibilities, because if you do then you're unprepared."

Karl Franssen
When I read what you write
all I want to do is sing you a song
because I want you to
always feel like you belong
when I read what you write
and it seems like you're feeling kinda bad
I just want you to know
that I feel more than slightly sad
but I will always say
write about what inspires you
poetry should come from the heart
it should always have meaning too
and when I hear you sing
I want you to know
its beautiful, just like you
even if you don't think so.
And I know you know,
no matter what
I could never hate you...
You can keep my heart
It's already broken
So I no longer have any need for it.
