Mind
Tony Anderson Sep 2020
Down the dark hallways of my mind
What secrets
What horrors
Lay in the dark corners

I love You
Tony Anderson Sep 2020
I love you with my heart and soul
I love you with depths untold
So
Why do you run away
Chasing after guys who just want to play

Stop Judging Me
Tony Anderson Sep 2020
Some guy in your past hurt you
Now you hate every member of the male gender

Fine
I really don’t care
But please

Don’t judge this man
I have and never will do anything against you
Stop treating me like i some form of acid
Here to slowly eat you away

I mean you no harm
I never did
I never will

I know some guy in your past hurt you in a bad way
Not all men are like that
And frankly
I am getting tired of the accusing looks

The your judgemental views

Stand Up
Tony Anderson Sep 2020
Stand up
Be true to yourself



No matter what life throws your way
Never lose who you are



Never forget where you came from
The trials you had to face
To be the strong person
You are today



Never lose sight of that
No matter what life throws at you
Stand firm
Stand strong
The battle will be won

Ocean of the mind
Tony Anderson Sep 2020
Tony what do you think when you look at me
An ocean
Are you calling me fat
Not at all


I say an ocean
Because when you speak
The words have depth and meaning
Not shallow and worthless


Each word you speak
A tidal wave of truth
Each word you speak
A whirlpool


I say an ocean
Because there is treasure
Hidden in all you say


The truth within your words surge
Like a mighty tide
That crashes upon
Everything that is false
Within this world

Sticks and Stones
Tony Anderson Sep 2020
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But words can never hurt me


We are taught that lie as we grow up
However
Words do hurt


The wounds from sticks and stone can heal
The wounds caused by words may never heal


The wounds caused by sticks and stones
Only show on the outside
The wounds caused by words
Go much much deeper within


Sticks and stones may break my bones
But words can never hurt me


What a lie

Winter
Tony Anderson Sep 2020
Full moon
Snow fall
Hot coca in hand
Fire blazing away
Laying here in front of the fireplace
Next to my loved one

Soft music play
Wrapped in blankets
Together
In love

The perfect winter night

Wish You Were Here
Tony Anderson Sep 2020
We were childhood friends
Laughed
Played
Told jokes
The many fun times we had



But your family moved
We could not hang out like we used to
Climbing trees
building forts
or just talking



Then my family moved to another state
We wrote each other from time to time
But you know how things go



You were my friend
My partner in crime
Best buds to the end



Hope you are doing well
Hope life is treating you good

Sunny Days
Tony Anderson Sep 2020
Sunny days
Hauling hay
Sweat pours down your face



Sunny days
Cutting wood
You’re tired
But work to be done



Sunny days
Cows are out once again
Find them
Bring them back
Fix fence

— The End —
