Red Arrow
Don't get stuck into the Red Arrow love
Where he or she use you for the lust
I can barely say this without thinking of dust
From the ceiling fans
Make sure somebody wants you for you
Not a wooden doll that has no emotion
You deserve to feel
Let the wounds heal

Home Early
If her dad wants her home by 10
Bring her home at 9:50
Just to be sure
Maybe he'll like you afterwards

I'm Alright
Everyone barrages me with compliments and praise
It seems like I've always had my hand raised
I've doubted myself for far too long
But i think i have good reasons to
Others contradict that theory
But theories can change and be edited
I'm not sure if mine will ever change
Despite the overwhelming abundance of kind words
I still feel like i can only hold two candles instead of twenty
Or ace a test with excessive studying instead of acing it perfectly
Or recite a text after hours of reading
Instead of minutes
Am i genius? Am i smart? Am i something better than average?
The answer to this is pretty transparent
I'm alright. A few bruises and dents, but nothing to be startled over.
There's 11 year old entrepreneurs who are running businesses efficiently. I'm not in their lane lol. I might be slightly smarter than normal but it's nothing to go amok about.

Catwalk
Many people have been told to do the Catwalk and they do it,
but many have rebelled and chose to do the Dogwalk.

Nothing can match the feeling of drinking fresh spring water
Well, an ice cold coca-cola will do just fine too.

Hometown Cutie
Hometown cutie
You've got the best of my attention
Send all those haters to detention
You've got my retention
So i'm going to pay attention
To your needs, wants and desires
If only you listen.

Home Base
You can be the Flagship and i can be your home base
We will crush what tries to erase
With silence
I want you to rise up above the defiance
And quell those worst nightmares.

Point To Happiness
All these poems written,
But i'm just perplexed and sleep-ridden
Most of the time
See, i can cultivate pretty decent rhymes
But most people don't have the time
Or don't see
What i'm doing
Nothing personal intended, i know
But maybe when times goes by and humanity evolves
It will gain traction and become something
Get the ball rolling some more
The warm-up isn't as hot as it used to be
I'm trying to dig into everyone's spirits again
And start that engine that used to work so well
Even when i'm not too swell,
I point to happiness pretty well.
Everyone says that i get all the girl's hearts
I'm shocked that people think so
I guess i'm doing pretty good
I'm just going to keep doing me
The people who give me attitude and bring me down just woke up on the wrong side of the bed
Or just got too bitter within the revolting dread
All these kids want to be rappers
But how many will actually make it?
All these kids want to be the best sports athletes
But many don't get very far
Why does this happen?
Is it from a lack of trying?
Am i asking very censured questions?
Cause if i am, i'll stop.
My heart is too big and my mind is too curious, that might be what pulls everyone in
But i ain't perfect
This one just flowed out too.

Kingpin
I finally stopped playing the role of Kingpin when i jumped out of the bowling alley
Saying hi to all the Sallys
Because they all think i'm pretty nice
Yeah i'm alright
I'm just trying to make this life right
Keeping my moral rope tight
So i don't get too loose
On the grip
Many people let it go a few times in their life
I'm trying to make sure i don't
I'm not sure how i got the inspiration to write this one. I just wrote this one out.
I've learned to realize that i'm a human that deserves what everything else has
And if anyone says the opposite
They're indefinitely inapposite
I play my own notes to this piece
Say hello to my little niece
Following my footsteps
They did what i told them
And they blossomed like flowers with hearts.
Too many people fail to realize the ushers of people that compromise for them
They just halt them with their hand when the helper tries give them a basket full of goodies
Trick or treat
Smell my feet
Because i have my headphones plugged in and i'm just pretending to listen to you
We all give up too much, but the thought still counts
Don't ever give up on the thought

No Deception
I want my words to make a difference to someone
Not so they can just accept it during the moment and forget about it for eternity
What's the point of even trying when nothing matters
Progression or bust
Not deception and lust
I have a life of meaning when it's been seen as nothing for the longest time
I wasted too much time with that mentality
So now i'm unfolding the cards
And rolling out a new slogan
Anything that defies it will just have to stay behind
Make sure you keep up with me
It might start getting a little cold
A little humid
A little too much pouring
A little too windy
A little too rough.
Speaking the truth

Puff Of Fresh Air
When something perturbs me to such a point
I have to step back and take the whiff of realization
The opposite of one that ***** smokers take
The puff of fresh air
The one that heals instead of one that stays stagnant
And become the mouthpiece of optimism
Because God could of put me somewhere far more hellish than this
I have to wake up every now and then, i'm just getting quicker every time.
All these kids are homeless with dead parents from all these ignorant wars, the ghetto, tragedy and famine and you're complaining about how you hate your parents that are there for you?
What in blue blazes has gotten into you?
People who are good to you
Should never be rejected
I'm sorry, but i cannot accept those words as a fact
Because they're filth painted with temporary coat
Am i supposed to be impressed?
Because i'm not
You did far worse than that
My parents couldn't do everything for me, but it wasn't due to the lack of wanting
It was the lack of everything that prevented them from doing so.
I want to tell the homeless help is on the way
I will be your guide today
But they forgot the language of caring
Due to all their previous mistreatment from other souls
They now almost forgot how to feel
I'm not going to put them on a reel
To give them bait so i could just throw them back into the river
I'm understanding of your pain
And i want something to guarantee you constant gain
Because they deserve it the most
I want to cry every time i see them digging for food out of the garbage can
But i need to stay in my poker face
And stay strong
But i'm not sure it might be for long..
I had to write this.

For Years
What do my words matter?
Im just a poet
Every time i open my mouth and speak the truth it just falls out of everyones ears
People do this for years
And the foreshadowing becomes predictable
I guess my words don't mean much to people. I've stated warnings and everyone ignores me until it actually happens or my words with meaning and weight get deflated every time by most.

The News
The News is basically that overplayed radio single you hate hearing.
Most of the time, it just annoys.
Most of the time, it just enrages.
A very simple poem, but I think it was needed to be written.

When I Find A Honey
When i cop a nice honey
It's not for the money
Or for something that benefits me briefly
But someone i think i connect with massively and can really see myself falling for
When i do, i go all out
I try to deem myself worthy
And it doesn't end when i get her
It's just the beginning
I like a honey for her herself
Not for the usual expectations
When i show signs of wanting to be with you, i hope you feel extra special it's because i see something in you that you might not.

Make Her Feel
Make her laugh
Make her smile
Make her feel safe
Make her feel like she's everything
Don't make her cry
Unless it's tears of joy
Because her father, brother or friends that are guys will hurt you if you do.

Your woman is standing on
Because the amount of guys doing so

Sheer Want
Rushing to the scene
Helping as many people as i can see
One, two, three
Now i got to climb the trees
To rescue the cats stuck there
What a dragging cliche, you say?
I'd rather be doing this all day
Than getting angry at my problems and myself
It's a very admirable trait to have for myself
I'm not doing it for anything but out of the sheer want
Just like for the love of the game
I love helping people, it's a hobby i must participate in.
I like to be annoying
Only when it's sweet as the sugar plums
I'm relentlessly hard-headed
But i take immense pride with that
No doubt in my mind
Not a single doubting fragment
I'm a magnet
That never stops it's force
When it comes to my passion for you

Real Poets
Real poets support each other
And make sure they both walk out of the fire together unscathed
Changing the world in an unimaginable ways
I could go on for days
On how special that would be
To paint on a board and present it to the world
Plant the seed and watch it grow
We're waiting.
Probably my favorite write in a few weeks.

Alleviation
I think i should apply for a mental health alleviation position
Because I've been making sure these people don't severely hurt themselves or commit suicide
I'm here to help you and i want absolutely nothing in return
It's one of the gifts God gave me
To make people feel better
And to be their vase to store all their tears
Here is to all the years
Of healing and wellness
That i'm bestowing upon them
Because it's an acting role where i'm not acting
I mean it
I love vaporizing the pain
It makes my mind less scorned from my own predicaments
I wanted to write this poem for awhile. Glad i got it out.

Skip
We all wish we could skip our chores like we skip cut-scenes in a video game
Or songs on our internet radio

At A Freelance
I was born to make a difference
Not to stay stagnant in the indifference
That is the default.
I never saw the point of being the basic
I'm just basic on the essential things
But when it comes for the rest
I'm very advanced
I will make sure the ones repressed will be at a freelance.
Hold your rifles diligently, i'm not calling to arms
Unless their only option is complete harm
We carry our hearts before the onslaught,
For their traps to be caught
Failing in the midst of revival.
The resistance is the greatest outcome humanity can ever create.

Hooded Crusader
A man with a hood
With promising words
Carried a small sword
Just in case he needed to
But he chose to use the weapon of unity instead
He had the choice, and he chose the right
Decades of dealing with corrupted taint
He brought the buckets of paints
And started slowly coloring
He was imprisoned for his beliefs
But that didn't stop him from being the man he wanted to be
Unlike the rest, his flavored words hold truth
When the world wanted black and white, he mixed the paintbrushes
And did not go down without a fight
He took over every podium
And showed his mixed colors of unity.
Brother to sister, white to black
He took of his hood and said hatred was what he lacked.
A political poem that connects with events in real life. I hope you're able to connect the pieces together.

Men And Women Together
When a woman says she doesn’t deserve to be with her man
He’s got to make her understand
That she is worth more than the world thinks
Men try to keep women down in the so called Man’s World
But a Man has to be the one who does the right thing
Even when it seems like treason
Who will stand up?
He assures his girl that he is just a simple man
And she can do exactly the same, even better
His heart reaches out to her, trying to contain a growing temper with the world creating such a mind set
He knows that he has to hold her hand and fight with her together.
Man's world my ***, Women are just as capable and equal as a man is.

So Much Beef
So much beef
And we haven't even reached the middle of the ocean with it's reefs
The world already is engulfed into too much grief
Let's be Chiefs and stop our tribing wars
You're just causing more sores
Just disorder galore
What are we stunting for?
We're the same, **** it
It's like we take one simple comment and Instagram it
It's coined savagery for a very valid reason
There's so much disdain among other poets on other websites. It just needs to stop. This is one of my funnier poems imo, and it's 69 words along with it lol.

More Women For Me
I don’t mind that you’re gay
That just means there’s more women for me
And all the gay guys won’t hit on me as often
Mistaking me as such
It’s happened a few times before
Felt just as good about myself if it were a woman
Can’t figure out why it’s such a big deal for most guys

Her Porsche
You never see a girl asking a guy to hop in her Porsche
Sounds like hogwash, of course
But let's just pretend to take the course
Would it be weird or the same?
I honestly wonder why only guys are allowed to do most of these things

Warped World
You know this world is warped
When you have kids singing popular songs about ***
That's all you hear on the radio nowadays
That's what you see devouring us from within
I do not want my daughter growing up in such a plagued state
She will be a woman of change
And my sons will be the beacon of light to carry that trope away
Into a more apposite society
If i even decide to have kids, that is.
But this comes to mind when i think about kids.
Pretty normal, right?
Artists have a right to write about *** in their songs, and *** itself isn't a bad thing, it's quite a gift when done correctly. It's just that it's exposed so distastefully to our young women and men of the generation and it's reproaching at the highest level. Teenagers need to learn how to handle it the right way and kids shouldn't be exposed to such a negative version of it and be influenced by the wrong words. It just feels like *** is more pushed out there then the other things and it's annoying. I totally understand the parents these days being kind of overprotective. I'm becoming one of their younger kind. To reiterate, i have nothing against *** but it's so degraded now that it's seen as terrible. It's something only adults should be doing on paper but if young adults are smart enough about it then that should be fine too. Everyone has a right to their choices, but i believe that America is too sexualized and it needs to be toned down enough where the kids aren't so influenced by it.

Divided Education
People say Education is the best it's ever been
But they took out cursive handwriting in schools
So i think they need to double check their facts
It's always been the lack of knowledge humans lack
We always need that guide to get on our backs
And get us back on track.
I honestly feel like it's the worst it's ever been. I also feel bad for all the folks who don't really like love poems, that has been my niche on here. Trying to write more diverse works to add on to what hasn't been posted on here that doesn't deal with some romantic attribute lol.

Blake Lively
Not much can match Blake Lively in nineteen sixties attire.
I'm looking for a path way to hire
That leads me to some type of perfection
That is emulated
In that image
In the scene
I am amazed by how serene
A woman can be.
Like my fondness of trees
A special one makes it easier to breathe
In this highly polluted world
A girl of your dreams is also Lady Liberty in discreet
She saved you from your long search
And your long absence of something greater.

Millions Of Miles
Millions of miles,
Burdened with all of life's criminal files,
But the overbearing tropes have shown no effect,
My willingness has caused no defect,
I have seen where the leaves have been left,
And now i know where i am in this *** of gold
That used to be bronze within the mantle,
I was on the monkey bar that had no handle,
But i found it when everyone else wasn't looking
The brigade of stallions looked over for a second
Eyeing the achievement i made that i did not think required attention
It feels like the crowning that sent invitations.

You can't wear gorilla suits on a wild-themed dress-up day because you might be a bank robber
You can't run a lemonade stand without a licence
You see a trend here?
Why are you accepting this tomfoolery?
I love my country but this crap bugs me to no end.

Age Of Unity
A Muslim boy with a clock
Is seen as a terrorist with a glock
Maybe i'm right, maybe i'm wrong
But if he were White, Asian, Hispanic or even Pacific Islander
Nobody would of suspected anything.
When are we going to stop fearing an entire race for only a portion radical and illogical ways of treating others?
I don't tolerate people who behead others if they don't agree with their religion
I don't agree with the repressive governments that control everyone and stone them for minor misdemeanors
There are good men out there fighting this evil that has plagued their homelands
I'm all for ending terrorism of all kinds
But let's stop terrorism of innocents too
Sure, i'm afraid of what the radicals will do to their own people, my people and the rest of the world
But i'll be dammed if i treated somebody from the Middle East like a monster when i don't even know who they are
If it wasn't for a Middle Eastern girl
The Syrians girls wouldn't have an improved education
If it wasn't for a Middle Eastern man fending off the Taliban and risking his entire village to keep Marcus Littrell alive
He would of been KIA a long time ago.
What about the ones who fought and died for America?
Nobody ever mentions them
The media wants me to hate them all, but i laugh and shake my head
Warped minds trying to warp others
I only see the ones who want to do us harm, and the ones who want to live peacefully and away from a life of hell
Brothers and sisters, just a different culture and skin color
I'm sorry if America seems racist or hateful, but i'm proud to be the one who throws those two words in the trash
Because i'm not afraid to speak my mind
And i welcome everyone here
America is everyone's home.
If only the Soviet Union never invaded Afghanistan
If only the people were not scared
To be free like America.
Unity for all,
Religious differences and Cultures alike.
I hope one day a Muslim man or Woman can walk down an American street without being labeled as a terrorist.
I hope one day these repressive governments fall into the hands of democracy
And we start the Age of Unity again.
I went all out on this one. I wanted to speak my views on this and i believe that the Muslim people and Arabian people deserve the same amount of freedom as we have. I feel so bad for that poor boy.
