I used to think I knew what I wanted
Until I got upon it
And like a pony she kicked
And like a doggy she bit
Now that's a real (BARK)
But I can never say it
Leave me contemplating
Summer nights
Writing isolation

I used to think I loved
And now I feel its hate
The light touch of your skin
Your voice makes me shake
Pickin my heart up off the ground
Is what it takes
Too see your face every monday
In the hallways
You pass me by
Right before my eyes
I watch you and I drift away
Like it was never real in the first place
But I still love you
Like I used too

If you cannot sink pens or blades deep into my heart,
then who are you to cut off our tongues?
We transcend the languages of gods,
and parade our words on our
souls.

We are the poets who write our prayers
and send letters to the moon
because in darkness
no one is looking.

"Write me something?"

Be careful what you wish for.

I'm really not a poet
But I do love to write
My words are pretty simple
And that exemplifies my life

I've never chased a dollar
But hard work's a faithful friend
Let no one think "he's lazy"
When the light of day's at end

Everything I've ever wanted
Live between these walls
And if I slip a little bit
I've a few good friends to call

Darkness had nothing for me
Just left me lonely, cold, and black
I learned to count my blessings
Not curse the things I lack

I believe in Christian values
But I don't always do what's right
I just do my best, repent the rest
And keep walking in the light
In lieu of a profile
You called me empty,
but all the thoughts in my head
couldn't fill your heart.
I tried to fill it, I really did.

It’s the best intentioned lie
that anyone will ever tell.
It’s a lie broken hearts
know only too well.
It’s the guy who is nice
but just not good enough,
or the girl who you like
but just won’t ever love.
Friend is never fair
when that’s all there can be.
Friend is the one
that your heart never sees.
It’s the word that is said
when your hearts on the mend
or the lie that is whispered
when the fairy tale ends.
I don't have a choice
But I still choose you
Given the truth
I'd still lie for you
I don't have anything to prove
But I still wanna prove myself
Even though you do have a choice
And you chose someone else
I simply can't deny the truth
I don't have a choice
But I still choose you
