As humans, we strive.
we strive, were alive, we abide, and we survive
For happiness, love, joy, and whatever other ******* ideas we live for.
And if you’re desperate like housewives
watching days of our lives,
you can’t cope without hope
and that’s not on a soap.
If you’re looking to Oprah or Dr. Phil
you can shop nonstop or pop a pill.
But the void won’t fill and the pain won’t ****
till you become what you want,
not stagnant or still.

We just want to make it.
Want to know that we when close our heavy dark eyes
filled with tears reflecting
broken promises
we won’t be terrified
of what turns out to be
our own reflections.
You can be a heavy hitter
Wheel of Fortune winner,
a Fox News news spin spinner
or a flat out sinner.
as we label ourselves in desperate attempts to find peace within society
But were losing our comradery.

Because as i think
and blink
connections linked
i think
we can’t control
whats in our veins
and all the lanes
were driving through
and diving
Riding
sliding through.
and everything but guided through
its all so new to me and you
and that's why I'm so confused
weather or not cause we cant lose,
but I'm still holding onto to you
its what I'm like
its what we do
So stop and remember
You have already made it.
Because the way your blonde hair falls perfectly around your shoulders
is like an angel wrapping his arms around your neck.
And the way
the angel holds you
is the way everyone else looks at you.
I am not a religious person,
but you make me want to believe.
(This poem is about looking around our lives for answers; finding something to believe in)
