Sometimes I laugh myself to sleep, Sometimes I cry myself to sleep.
Sometimes I drive so fast just to feel the danger,
Sometimes I drive so slow just to get myself together.
Sometimes I listen to happy pop music just to see if it'll make me smile,
Sometimes I listen to sad music just knowing it'll destroy me.
Sometimes I Walk outside just to breath in the fresh air,
Sometimes I lay in bed all day just to dwell in my sadness.
Sometimes I know exactly who I am,
Sometimes I Don't know who I am at all.
And Sometimes just sometimes I give advice to others,
Sometimes they tell me that I should listen to my own advice.

Sometimes I think about,
The words coming out of my mouth.
Sometimes, I dream about
The words you never could say.

Those sweet, sweet words
That had me falling from grace.
Those words reserved for another,
Another who stands in my place.

But I try not to care,
I found my drug.
The best kind they give,
A genuine smile,
A loving hug.

Sometimes, I look at you and I can't speak.
Once in a while, it's because I'm marveling
At what a work of art you are.
Now and again, it's because
I want to hold your hand.
Occasionally, it's because I want
To feel your arm around me.
And once or twice, it's because
I want to kiss you.
Mostly though, it's because
I start to feel like I'm dying.

There's something that stabs into me,
Twisting my heart
And muddling my mind.
That's usually due to a couple of things.
One: I miss you more than I can explain.
Or two: you forgot about me.
Sometimes it's both.

I know you never really forget about me,
But it feels that way.
We're sitting five feet apart
And you don't look my way once.
I challenge myself not to look at you for a minute,
Then two or three, four or five.
Because every time I glance your way,
You're laughing at something someone else said.
Another person made you smile.
You're so wrapped up in other people
That I slip your mind.

And that's totally normal.
It's to be expected.
I know it's weird,
And it's probably wrong,
But I think about you all the time.
I wonder what you're doing
And how you feel.
I hope that you're doing okay,
And that you're thinking about me.

Sometimes when I get upset
I want to see you so badly.
Want to talk to you,
Hear you say my name.
Hear you say that it'll be okay.
That always helps.
To feel your hand on my shoulder
Or even better,
To find myself wrapped in a hug.
You have the power to make things better.

You matter to me a lot,
And I know you so well.
There's always a joke to be made,
Or a smile to be shared between us.
Those times are the best.
But then, sometimes
I look at you and I can't speak.

Sometimes we smile and sometimes we cry
Sometimes we just don't know nor do we even know why,
Sometimes we're blinded and sometimes we see
Sometimes it's you and sometimes it's all me,
Sometimes we run and sometimes we stand
Sometimes we hide and other times we except the consequence from the man,
Sometimes we talk but cannot be heard
Sometimes we can get lost after giving our word,
Sometimes life is good and sometimes it's bad
Sometimes you blame yourself for loosing everything you've ever had,
Sometimes our heads speak instead of our hearts
Sometimes we speak dumb instead of using our smarts,
Sometimes I'm so excited and or very surprised
Sometimes I wish I didn't see what I seen with my eyes,
Sometimes we set goals that we just can't complete
Sometimes we can't make it but have walked so much feet,
Sometimes I just want to be by myself just sitting home
Sometimes I sit there for days trying to figure out my newest poem,
Sometimes you'll learn a little bit about me
Sometimes you're just not going to be able to comprehend what it is that you'll actually see,
But there's one thing that is true and it always will be
And that's the one that's writing these poems has alot that he wants everyone to know the truth so that they get their own chance for the truth that they see.

I just want to slap you as hard as possible.

Sometimes you make me happier than anyone else
Sometimes you hurt my soul
Sometimes, sometimes.....
No, all the time I love you so much more than time
Sometimes you make me feel so loved
Sometimes I feel like I'm not enough
Sometimes, sometimes
I wonder if you'll always be mine

Sometimes I think to much about you and I
Sometimes I have to wonder why
Why this feeling in my heart
Grows with the doubts in my mind
Like weeds that destroy the flower beds

Sometimes the weeds win
Overpowering the flowers
Sometimes the flowers prove stronger
Snuffing out the weeds
Will our love be stronger than my doubts like the beautiful flowers beating the weeds?

At times,
I become so lonely,
I start having conversations
With my loneliness.
We drink together
And drown together -
Sometimes in *****,
Sometimes in tears.
            - - -

Sometimes I feel,
You don't listen.
You don't hear me.
Is this all real?
Where have you been?
Not around me.
That much is true.
I don't get you,
Don't understand.
I'm something new?
Your really true?
I like you banned.

Come consume the air around my head
Let your eyes stray to curiosity
Feel the pressures that make us animals

Come touch these bones
Let no tears wash their age
Feel the history of our people

Come sing the joy from your belly
Let others join in form
Feel the warmth of hearts beating as one

Come read my poetry
Let it grasp your intellectual mind
Feel the emotions I desire to have

Come pray to the idea we share
Let it speak of peace
Feel out the truth you seek

Come crash into the ocean waves
Let the under-toe fling you free
Feel the strength of the great mother

Come lose words with the birds
Let the chittering and chattering slip our tongues from there mouths
Feel confused? As do I  

Come to trust the dream wept last Saturday
Let is sink into the bed you sleep
Feel nothing at all

Come rest on my mind
Let my imagination grant your every wish
Feel
