East Side
West side story
I took it to the East
And made the Globes bronze
Instead of gold

Atreyu Records
Let's be awkward and listen to all of Atreyus albums together
Normal is insane
I get caught between the diction of unaware or mundane
What's this sanity thing you speak of?

Confident In You
When people lose all their hope for you
I'll remain confident in you
They tell me to move on, cross the bridge
But I can't let your life dissolve into just opening the fridge
When you're ability to live becomes a smudge
I'll be the source
To prove your resources
Into reality
People's words speak duality
But I will not be shaken
All the criticism I've taken
I won't conform into the pressure
I will always be here to pick up your pieces
To fix all the broken parts strained within you
Whether I'm your lover or your friend
My love for you will never end
Only love and support will transcend
When you fall deep, I will be disappointed
But I'm fully sure you'll redeem yourself.

Defeat
I will never accept Defeat, unless it's a human being.

Use your eyes
To memorize my beating
Heart that is failing

Pray.
She prays at night for somebody to love her
He prays at night that she'll end with him for the rest of his life

Never estimate your worth
You are not a calculator
You mean something to someone
Or many!

Regardless of how it intense the fires get
I want you to never forget
That you are worth something.

Crest
I wish my former girlfriends the best
Hoping their life is entangled in pure zest
I'll wear my crest
Proudly and amend
The scratches and tears bestowed upon it
During the forgery of our escapades.

Slightly Less
You can save a lot of aggravation and turmoil if you just switch your dating insurance company to me.
Well, maybe slightly less.
Can't tell for sure!

Those Words
I remember those words
A rushing wave of euphoria rushes over me suddenly
I am now revived.

Self Dialogue II
Sometimes i laugh at the response of something overwhelming me
I kind of like it at times
It's quite a high that doesn't damage me

Most Of Me
Most of me
Feels sorry for others suffering
And instead of complaining about the video buffering
I'm trying to showcase help
This world makes me say whelp
I have to be the source of all the solutions
But instead of finding conclusion
People just avert me with verbal intrusions
Telling me i care too much and I'm in delusion
But i think my life speaks other wise
But i don't expect you to know
I do expect better out of you
Because that's how i think
I know it's oddly distinct
Most of us are just souls tapering off into the rink
Ready to get pushed and shoved down

Million Dollar Shine
I only take a swing
At the ball that's worth hitting
I'm not going to go for each one, who am I kidding?
It's like a phychlogical bidding
It may not work out in the end
It may not suffice at all
Hence why I stay reticent and stall
But I push myself a little more now
I get castigated for taking a shot
It gets lonely at the top
So what if I flop
I have a million dollar shine
No more staring at the vines
Just pure courage
It may not happen
But I don't care
I could end up winning for life
By taking that chance
I want my words to make her dance
And to see verification in my stance

College Degree Dream 2
She's looking for a guy
Who doesn't want to party every day in his life
And actually studies his tests
She's started her own since she's put High School to rest
Finding a decent guy is like listening to an ongoing pest
For hours and hours on end
She's stared down at the floor
Always wanting more
Than what's she's gotten
Every Apple she picked off the tree
Is rotten.

Pale
Some people don't like pale
But I'm as attracted to it as an alchoholist is to ale
They've been accepted to my college of appeal
Which is my version of Yale
Pale girls do it well, I think

Best Poet Ever
The best poet ever is the one who looks at you like nothing else
And they would dissolve into ashes if they were without you
Its a hefty responsibility
Holding a life in your hands
That's why love
Is so hard to understand.

Like To Play
I like to play with my *****
And by that
I mean my cat
You pervert.

Yes II
If you ask the question if you're special
You should know the answer
Insecurity should be quelled
By what I do
I think talk is cheap until the actions push the envelope
Your soul is too resplendent for this morbid ending to the story
I felt like you can do better
Than I realize that I am the better
Not because I'm fervently egotistical
But because I cater to your waves of emotions
I do more than I ever thought I would
There's nice things I would do for everyone
Then there's nicer things I would do for you
If you want to ensure my words congeal
Ask away beloved
I'll say Yes II to them all

As long as your ghost towns lose sense of vacancy
And your mind is filled with more red than blue on the X-rays
I have done my part
And never will I part from you
You have echoed something I've never heard before
And I want to dive deeper into it
Forget the repercussions
As long as my soul becomes more opulent
I will forget what it means to be transient
These feelings shall remain forever

Life In Trouble
You're in trouble
We think its double
And now were going to silently burst the bubble
Were going to reduce your isolation to rubble
I know to some this isn't subtle
But it shouldn't be
No, it shouldn't be
Your life went downhill fast
And you were a victim
I'm so sorry we erroded our common sense and clashed here and there
The fault is mine and for that I'm sorry
I remember the potential you had shown when we were little
Year by year we drifted apart
But I never wanted to see your life fall apart
I haven't treated you the best but I do care
I'm just a ****** sometimes cause I'm mad at myself or something else
No excuses, blame it on me still
Life has stood still
For a few moments
Because we don't know what happened to you
And we're fearing the worst
We hope you didn't do what you think
Please stay strong
You don't deserve any of this
I'm rushed with guilt for the past
But I'm going to make it up now
And were going to get revenge for you somehow
We got your back
This poem is about an old friend of mine that drifted apart as years past but we still talk a little despite the clashing. We've gotten on each other's nerves but both of us have changed and he has shown some remorse before he disappeared and now I feel like I wasn't nice enough to him and that's what I blame myself on. I have no idea what happened to him but I hope he is ok.

All I Have
When all I have is strength
It's still a fallacy
Save the formalities
I know what's been coming out of me
I'm not losing this battle
But its still hard to accept
The fact that some people easily delve into death
I try to save my breath
But I'm running out
You just won't know
Because I am on my path to become unmendered
And running towards the story where I'm a contender
I didn't mean to break your fender
I'll be a quick sender
And settle it as fast as possible
Bare with me
But don't bear with me
I'd prefer not to be stuck in another wild
Mine is already rigid enough
Life is a fitness test and I have to hang tough
376 · Apr 2018
Belonging
We have a sense of belonging
I am always longing
For much more beyond the human comprehension
Something always grabs my attention
Dispersing me from what's important
But I'm a loose ***** on the course of what is important and isn't
Even the words on the paper don't always convince me
Sometimes I get a square one hunch
And just want to feed myself a lunch
That will nurture me in a way that will benefit me.

You Are A Woman.
The less clothes a woman wears out in public
The less I like
My interest takes a hike
Because I like women who respect themselves
I don't want to get with you to fornicate
I'll give a million signs to indicate
I'm not that kind of man
If you asked to wait until the marriage, that is something I will comply with without question
I'm not going to be with you for your body
Making love has been disgraced
With people using others
I'm not going to be that man
I have a plan
With you
If we're dating
It's not going to be several nights of lust and be romantically devastating
It will be moments to make your life more elating
You are a woman
A being so special
You owe none of us your body or your freedom
Men are not strong creatures in this sense
You are too special to be used
I ponder if I'll ever be good enough for a self-respecting women
374 · Aug 2018
Component
The most important component of a relationship
Is trust.
So brain-numbingly simple
Yet
People fail to comprehend it
Your problems will only distend
The more you hide and pretend
Don't let beauty end
Because fear has loomed irrationality over you
What strange creatures we are.

Stopping At Resturaunts
Just like those people who stop at resturaunts to go to the bathroom and leave
I feel the same exact way with people using me
I don't know if some of them will ever notice that I deserve emotional profit too

Made For This
She hates herself and wishes she was dead
I'm imagining our hands locked as we wed off into a honeymoon in my head
She's so beautiful inside and out that I can't fathom her self hatred
I was made for something, I was made for this
Meet me halfway
Or let your misery stay
I think about your well being all day
To the point that all I want for you to is to get better
I sincerely hope a man out there treats you like I did
It's never been about me
So I won't end that
371 · Nov 2017
Back Tears
You're holding back tears in your eyes
That's when I realized
I made some giant mistakes
Wanting to burn my past sentences and comments at the stake
Aspiring not to be a flake
I'm not going to push anything and see how much you can take
I'm going to erase the lines we put in the sand
Hopefully the rest will understand.

I Just Will
Dreaming in my mind
All those flashing lights and me waving my hand
Waking up to stardom with my friends
Who can be called the Justice League of Awesome
I hope DC doesn't get ******
But we don't like to be dismissed
We want to excel in this brutal world
And I'm trying to find a way to succeed and its making my head swirl
"That's never going to happen"
"Impossible"
I could keep thinking of the responses as I laugh
Show and Tell is going to need some million dollar commercials
I don't need to hope
I just will
Plain and simple
Not even the odds are going to stop me
I'm a blockade of optimism
This isn't a euphemism
Even though I enjoy living in those
You better drink before you spit fire out of the hose
Because that's the way it goes
Friend or Foe
Ride or die
No more dreaming and thinking of what it could be and ask why
No more watching paint dry
All the doubt's are going to be the fish that fry
I will
I can tell into the future without being physically able
The Fortune Tellers are going to be out of work
After my first few chapters of this story are told
Behold
The perfect poem describing my attitude. I'm not Jesus or anything, just a man wanting to be famous and enlighten the world with my work. I want to inspire the world and create awesome things  with my friends and live life to my full potential. I have no idea how it will happen but I know it will. Anyone can be famous or become legendary. Nobody can stop you. Nobody is better than you. Rise up and begin your path. You're awesome and you won't give up in life.

If He
If he only likes you when your clothes are off
You know you have the wrong candidate for your special heart
Keep them on
That's the old trick in the book that's shamingly overused
Shine your humanity onto me
Not your body
That's for later if a connection is ever fully established
It should be the last thing on the bucket list of bonding.

Lexus
Who wouldn't want a Lexus?
Not the one with four wheels, silly
The brazen, sweet-talking girl from Philly
You could own a hundred thousand or a Milly
It wouldn't make a difference
We all should get a glimmer of romantic inference
Once a in a day
It keeps some of the stress away
Little do you know
That the influence you bestow
Can really implement change in a heart
Watch as these oxidizing effects tear itself apart
I'm waiting for your misery to depart
Like a New York City train
She spends her weeknights crying over something so trivial
Pour her self-doubts down the drain
Where it belongs
In the sewer
Because the only man that truly deserves her
Would still be with her when her last option is staying in the sewer
Somebody get with Lexus
And make her feel the elation we've always wanted her to feel
Genuine.

Filled With Smoke
Maybe my words are filled with smoke
But the regret is soaked
As my pride is soaked
These words occasionally croak
Sometimes my thinking is as hard as pine oak
Don't you ever feel like that again
I'm at fault
I'm going to be corgal with your emotions
Because I never should of hurt you in the first place
I'll bury all my frustrations and aggravation
Like it was the casualties of my own army
It's not easy to farm me
I have a rigid spirit
That can be ignorant at times
The past speaks the volume of my speakers for me.
It takes one to know one.

Below
My thoughts can be like the bottom of the ocean floor
Nothing and going nowhere
I hate this darkness, when will I get light?
It's limited here
So every time a torch is available
I take advantage of it.
Where else can I look to find the lighter world?

If I Just Wanted
If i just wanted nooki
I'd just go Downtown
Where all the lost girls hook for money
And i think you're capable of more, honey
But i'm not judging you
It's never been about that
But the question pops in my mind, why so low on yourself?
But then i come back to my thoughts
Because i'm getting too distraught
If i just wanted that, why would i even make an effort?
Why would i even bother with you?
Ask yourself that question
And realize the motives i have
I want to make you better
Not maul your soul and make you feel numb
I don't want anyone making you feel dumb
You're truly magnificent, nobody should tell you otherwise
I wish the girls that hook thought that way about themselves
I want to be in your life, i hope you know
Before you run away
Before you tell yourself something you will believe that's not true
I don't want you to break this off and regret it
I'm not like the rest, that notion i detest
I hate wasted words, you should know
So let me set my transparent example
Just like the well known Preamble
I only want to swim in your ocean
No-one else's.
365 · Oct 2015
Seemingly
You have flaws
But seemingly very few
I'm just going to keep drinking my Mountain Dew.
You're trying too hard
But thanks for the effort
Even though you gave yourself a mini panic attack over something small
It was seemingly worth it all.

I Would Cast a Shadow
I would cast a shadow
But you’re already there
I would leave this house
But I’m caught by the style of your hair
I can’t show up out of nowhere, no that wouldn’t be fair
The planet is my lair
Feeling only the swiftness of the air
You’re the reason why a shadow like me would care
I’m just a shadow, who wouldn’t dare
Dare to care
I’m as broken as broken could be as a shadow
The weeping willows are really weeping
Their life is slowly depleting
They can relate to me
We’re falling under
We don’t want be shadows any more
We don’t want a shell
Or something to hide in
We want to be like the rest
The alive
We feel like Spalding in Cast Away
We can’t respond back
We desperately want to
We hear your cries and pain
But were quieter than the uniqueness in the rain
We are screaming your name
But it won’t do any good
Our goose is overcooked
And now we have to sit back and face facts
Opposites attract
But why don’t Shadows?
Because we’re just nothing
Existing in something
The background dancers to this lifeless performance
We’re asking them to throw tomatoes at us
It’s just a given
Nobody wants to be us
Nobody has any recognition for us
That’s why we long for them to
A reason to be celebrated
If we’re not getting attention we want, than we deem ourselves as useless
But we shouldn’t, there isn’t a room for the hopeless
But everyone tells us we’re just shadows
And we won’t amount to anything
It’s so hard for some of us to not believe them
But now they’re no longer retreating from themselves
They’re deeming themselves as victorious
Because they dragged the weak down further
Because they feel like the dirtiest portion of dirt itself

Little World
Little world inside my brain
I get lost there like stranded island survivors
And get lost in the spectrum of civilization

It's totally beautiful and a hinderance at the same time.

Geminis
Will call themselves Gemin
To avoid the sensation of rhyming with lies
Because not all of us are cheating liars

I'll gladly fight for love

Make The Shot
Go big or go home
I dream of Rome
Forget Internet Explorer, more Google Chrome
I'm the whole package, yet they think I'm Foam
They swerve the road, hit the cones
I make one mistake, chip my bones
Then I drone
Over it
Moving onto the next big thing
I know when I make it
Because that's when the Choir sings
From the approval of others
I own this field, secretly undercover
Don't try to smuther
My potential
Chances are, you're scared of my credentials
I shoot the free throw
I'll ignore your denouncements, you already know
Who caught all those wins in a row?
Took all the losses while you complained about your bosses
This talk is preposterous
Coming in full force like a Rhinoceros
There's always a rise and fall to this

In the Box
I'm the love letter you keep in your box until you open twenty years later
And you say "wow" every time
Except those words are tattooed on your heart
And you don't really need the letter
But it's there anyways

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
