If life was simple,
I would be happy,
But it isn’t,
That’s why I worry,

So many choices,
Which one to pick,
Seems like nothing works,
It makes the soul really weak,

Maybe it’s time to let go,
A few changes would be nice,
Just have to learn from the past,
Hopefully this can make me wise.

I’ve been gone for awhile,
It’s time to settle back in,
Into this world of peotry,
Where I found myself within.

We are new to this place,
We don’t know what to do,
But we all know that as time goes,
We’ll understand the truth.

We have went through a journey,
A journey that will forever last,
Something we will all share,
Through our future, present and past.

Now we take on the World,
For what it has to offer,
It’s just that this time,
We wont be looknig out for each other.

Our essences on each other lives,
Will not be forgotten,
Instead it will be cherished,
And forever heartened.

So good luck to everyone,
For whatever you may do,
It’s our time to show this world,
A thing or two.

Annoying,
Just one of the ways to describe you,
Don’t get me wrong,
I’m just telling the truth.

You can also be funny or cute,
Or maybe even nice,
Well that’s just how I see it,
Don’t blame me, I’m just a guy.

Let’s not get off topic,
Im here to write about a girl,
A girl who’s fierce and joyful,
Someone who can rock anyone’s world.

The first time I met you,
I knew you were going to be a problem,
You just kept on talking and talking,
And sounded like you had your own anthem.

Not only were you a problem,
You were once trouble too,
Now she became best friends with this other girl,
Double trouble, now were doomed!

But later I knew something has changed,
You grew up a little and became more mature,
That made me happy,
You were growing up to something pure.

I’m just happy to be a part of it,
Seeing you grow,
It gives me joy inside,
To be someone you know.

Well this poem is to you,
Miss “I love soccer and friends,”
And “Just ask to know more about me,”
I hate you, but you’re friends with Jordyn.

Isn’t she beautiful?
Just look at how she glows,
But yet she’s lonely,
If only he knows.

When he is up,
She’s always away,
When he is down,
She brightens our day.

But there has been times,
When he would visit her,
Even for a few minutes,
They were together.

—Thomas James Written on October 09, 2011

These are the moments,
When I truly pray,
Please God,
Hear everything I have to say.

Bless this family,
And this little girl,
She has affected all our lives,
And became part of our world.

She is strong,
She is brave,
But with your guiding light,
We will know she is safe.

Sometimes I can’t sleep,

Because I’m tired and sore,

So I write poems,

Because I’m bored.
