one call
Patrick Leehy Nov 2011
A piercing call has reached my phone
Screeching in my ears
And calling up a thought that I have hung up
Worse yet I have let you go to voice mail
Your calls ring out in my brain
Telling me you didn't want this
And that you did want it
But I don't know
Your a complex machine
You have to many wires
I can't follow how they are strung
Your functions are endless
And I could have done anything with you
And yet I could not turn you on
And press your buttons
Or maybe I just didn't want to
I was to scared that if you were on
I would take you out and lose you
Because I have lost many things before
And whenever I get used to something
It powers off or is lost or is broken
All this from one call
I'd say it's quite a feat
To call this much out
From the past messages of my mind
Your obviously programed in my memory
Your a favorite a charished contact
And i miss your not so frequent calls

if your hands were mine
Patrick Leehy Nov 2011
i have you say
on a day quite like today
that your favorite couples you see
are not you and me

i belive that we mesh together
just like the bird and the feather
and we shall fly
just as high

i can see you now, sitting there
your hand carresing your hair
and day after day it amazes me
the beauty that i do see

your beauty runs deep
through and past your body and out with your every peep
it coarses through your complex mind
and gives me awe that i have found such a wonderful find

i want to hear you say
that your favorites are you and i
we do mesh together
and i am as high as a blazed bird
and as you sit ther i wish your hands were mine
just so that i be closer to the beauty that is you
your beauty runs though you into me making me better, stronger
and together we are a wonderful find

keep fighting youngster
your thought controls your mind
and you mind controls your body
so dont let your hope fall in the dumpster

i know who you are
and then again i dont
but i can tell without a doubt
that you wont fall from this earth, like a shotting star

your a fighter
you will make it through this
and when you do
your life will never shine brighter

please i expect good news
and when it comes
i want to know
let me know, these are your dues

tired
Patrick Leehy Nov 2011
im not in the mood to write
im not in the mood to read
im just to tired
to tell wrong from right

tired of *******
tired of lies
tired of playing the game
and im done with it

sounds
Patrick Leehy Nov 2011
i hear things
i dont know where it comes from
or who or what creates these things i hear
these sounds crescendo to a fortress of acceptance

they sing sad songs
because that is what my mind holds dear
haunting melodies of sweet love gone sour
make my head sway with a sense of knowing

because these songs are my stories
and in my mind i dont need to cower
from a house singing dark melodies
i can arrange those tunes so others will know my pain

i hear things and yes i may sound crazzy
but keep quiet please
just for a moment
while i finish this song

goodnight world
Patrick Leehy Nov 2011
why everynight do i say goodnight to the world?
honestly
i dont know
is it because
i feel lonely?
dont think so
is it i feel
i need to?
na thats not it
i think
its because
i feel a conection
to every single
one of you
even those i dont know
because i can feel
how my thoughts and actions
will travel
around this world
bumping into you at school
pushing him over the edge
pulling her back from falling
i just know
my actions
dont stop with me
and i know
my thoughts
make my actions

what is and what could be
Patrick Leehy Nov 2011
every night i fall asleep thinking
thinking of what is
and what could be
and i wonder why all these things happen to me
i know that all this crap that is
will only expand my thinking

my life will be something
not because i have avoided trouble
no, because i stood on the sidelines
and got swept in because of the guidelines
everywhere i have seen things that trouble
and i know something

i know that this world can change
i know that we can live to make a difference
and live life for the answer not the question
and ask yourself this question
can we really make a difference
if the world doesnt change?

— The End —
