Writing is the key
To the heart
Not only others hearts
By letters and love notes
But to your own
By spilling out everything
All the way to your fingertips

Lost Boy
I can't believe
I left you..
The only thing I'd ever loved
For someone else
Who couldn't compare to you.
She has the long hair
And the prettiest face
But no intellect
Nor any grace.
I miss how you would
Live in the moment.
Because all she does
Is post every second online.
I miss our late roof-top talks
Because all she ever does is whine.
I miss your laugh
I miss your smile
I miss your realness
And every inch of your beautiful body
Because now I'm with someone
Who's too shallow to feel love
All because
I was too scared to love you

I asked once
“Why did dad die young”
And I got this answer
“God wanted more angels”
Here’s the catch
He was Buddhist
I’ve wonder that for years now
What is the afterlife?
If there was heaven,
Did the people who didn’t believe
Get in heaven?
Or are they doomed
For the eternal flames?
I wonder some strange things
I guess you have to wonder
To get answers.

I know everyone dies
It’s fate
But just thinking
Truly thinking about it
Can get depressing
Your friends
Your favorite actors
Your favorite bands
All one day
Will be gone
I guess we live life
And we either die
Doing nothing
Or die
Doing something
It doesn’t have to be major
If you change at least one person
One person’s heart
For the good
You did something right
With your life
You died a legend
To that one person

Why does he love me?
He deserves so much more
I can’t give him anything
I have nothing
I am nothing
Why me?
Why’d he choose me?
He could just want to waste time
No,
Why would he waste time for so long?
I wish I could give him more
He does too much for me
I love him
But am I holding him back,
From his real true love?
Are we going to last?
I can only give him my heart
Which isn’t much
Considering how much
It’s been broken
I’ve dealt with loss
So much loss
I can’t deal with more
What if he leaves?
What will happen to me?
I need him
But does he need me?
all of these poems are based on my life, experiences, and just emotions.

Religion
Is such a hard thing to follow
How can you be you,
Without breaking the rules of Him?
This is me
Cursing, offensive jokes, and sadness
Half of that goes against religion
Why can’t I still be me,
But still follow the religion I was born into?
What religion is true?
Will we find out when Death comes
Waiting at our doorstep
He’ll knock
And you answer
And he says,
“Here’s what religion is true”
And if you follow it, you get to live,
How your religion lives
If you follow another religion
You’re down in the flames
I guess what i'm trying to say is,
Choose wisely.
Again, I write what's on my mind so please tell me if you like it or not.

Souls make people
Who they are
When we pass
Our soul wanders
Wondering what to do
They have always had some purpose
Now what?
Souls are seen even after death
Maybe it’s the warm smell of cookies
Or the salty smell of the sea
One thing
Makes every soul different
Makes every soul remembered
One thing
One word
You
This is an old poem I wrote...
