feel every step you take

see everywhere you look

pay mind to your mind

because to be mindless is worthless

and in life

everything has a price

be aware of your awareness

nothing has to be a mess

the moment is clear

I had headphones on while doing my art project in class

(a still class progresses)

but everyone has something to say
usually it's the ones with voices as annoying as a child crying on an airplane

thank the person who created headphones... I wouldn't have had made it this far

I wouldn't be 20, my name would be on a tombstone

anyway....

****

do your art, in silence please

so that you can hear yourself make history

(atleast in someones eyes)

a memory they'll keep and remember when things were easier

the sun rose this morning
my mom turned 50
and the birds sing for no one
cars will continue to crash
plants will die
terrorist will terrorize

and I'll be thinking of the moms who worry about the children not coming home

teachers will "teach"
and I'll listen to what comes next

happy birthday mom

you have to let things happen

so when it's good or bad you can say

"things just happen"
(it helps you accept reality)
(you can't live denying it)

they happen no matter what
they happen in your sleep
they happen when you reach for the steering wheel when you're about to leave your house
they happen when you decide to run a red light
they happen when your life is taken why by your decisions

your death
will
           just
                      happen

like all other things that happen...

she falls short of hope

some say it's bad to not have hope

but with no hope, you tend to reach within and build self belief wth all that's left in you from that day your ego died

you build only to destroy

a beginning every second of the day

waiting for you to initiate something worth while

my father tells the stories

talks in the car, I'll never forget

I was taught to listen

So I did

it's a good trait....
just listen

observe
enjoy
reflect
and write

write...
write.....



write

passing lights
on a gloomy saturday night
when the sun is asleep
I'm wide awake questioning what I currently seek

"there's so much to go"
I THINK

I go to the restroom and feel like my energy is going down the toilet

I pause the music palying in the background
Silence the hainting voices and shower

Clean my body

Turn off the water

Shiver for 5 minutes

I forgot my towel

I hope this love doesn't fade

so we can learn to understand what people fear to do

love beyond ourselves

love beyond what we know about feelings

love with no expiration date

love like death won't seperate our minds

love
like
never
before



it's better to not hope at all... just saying

My days are easy

Challenges are faced, the hard part was getting over the time to spend on my passions

Everything takes time, and every passing moment I'm a little older than I was

          just

                               now
"**** this world"
is what I feel like sometimes

but helping is nice too

a person like me, with no power.... just doesn't find it within himself to litter anymore

there's a lot of women here

with lives of their own

with nothing to share

and less shame to show

attention doesn't bring me satisfaction anymore

I want to think until my thoughts pour down from my ears

(everything has a price, so save your money)
