Blood pumping
senses pulling
anger trying to party
the need to fight for survival
bass banging in your ear
grab your weapons
your salt
your silver
and **** the monsters
the ones that aren't under your bed
it's like a seven nation army out there
and i'm gonna rip it down
A lifetime ago
when the moon was full
and I wasn't a fool
the streets would lick
the soles of my feet
as the stars winked down
my shoulders

older now
dead me's buried
under moon beams
grave stones carved
1993 - 2000
2001 - 2005
2006 - 2009
2010 - 2013
and lastly
2014 -
The last date unfinished
waiting on
this me to
become
deceased
Daniel Magner 2014
naps turn into days
weeks, years it seems
on a shell strewn beach
trying to escape
off in the distance
an island drifting
over hung with clouds
a terrible feeling that
I must get out
climb the shale
all the way down
freezing waters sting
my doubts
stroke, stroke, stroke
away from the shore
till I drown
and awaken
reborn

still having strange dreams, that make me feel
as if I've lived a million years

he calls himself
an addict
but hasn't touched
a needle
in three years
if you ask him why
he'll say
"once a cheater
always a cheater
even if you
cheat once
and spend
your whole
life single"

my biggest regret in life
is the way I took
my happiness for granted
when it was at large
and how I failed
to chase after it
with my whole soul,
my eyes,
and both my feet
when it began
to run away
Tell me sweet nothings
I'm yours
for the night
tell me sweet something's
I'm yours
till the end of
time
Daniel Magner 2014

Don't usually write my sappy feelings out but hey, what do I have to lose?
I kneel,
I fold my hands,
I close my eyes.

God, I pray,
Please don't leave me today.

I stand,
I wait,
I force myself to go on.

I've struggled today,
I feel I can't do it.

But I remember my prayers,
I know God you are still with me,
You will bring me through it.
