I saw a squirrel without a tail,
running on some powerlines.
He didn’t seem to really care,
that his **** was missing a puff of hair.
Cause he ran as fast
and jumped as high
as any other squirrel.
So it made me wonder,
why the heck
do squirrels have tails at all.
I thought it through
and realized
It doesn't matter if theres one or not.

In a few days
I will be very
Busy.

The one thing I cannot stand
Is to be busy.
To have places to be.
Places I don't really
Want
To be.
Because my childish
Teenage
Juvenile
Mind
Just wants to play
And have fun.
Though I enjoy school
I don't want it to start.
I still have awhile before
But I have things
Important things
That need doing.
And my free time
Well
My most cherished possession
It's going to be mostly gone.
But I asked for this.
So I'll weather it.
But dangit,
I just want to relax.
I'm feeling stressed because I have quite a bit of stuff going on in the weeks to come, so this is just me whining about it.
I wanna be with you
for like

a shamillion years or so

even though
you gosh dangit can't spell that.

One splashes rainbows before my eyes
                                                               Another tries to save me before I die
What do we want with you
                                                                              As if you’ve ever gotten old
Making the world go down
                                                     Your broken gears will never be forgotten
Clean is what I wear
                                                                                              Filth is what I seek
Is it that I’m really seeking for the grace of God? is it that I’m just too scared to live? What is wrong with me?
                            The narrow gate is wide to me. What is wrong with me?
Perpetually oozing **** out of the only place I can find
                                                              I should have never started this cycle
My best friend
                                                                                                             My savior
My idol
                                                                                                     My best friend
   Who is my best friend God?    
                And why do I care so much
                     He is a joke
                              Gosh dangit!
                                    I want to live in the light
                                                  I want to walk in the Light
                                                                     I desire the LIGHT!
                                                                               God is everything beautiful
What is seen as beauty, truly is beauty:            
                                                                                             one way or another
Your response
                                                                                                           Harmonize
I wanna be with you
for like

a shamillion years or so

even though
you gosh dangit can't spell that.

Oh, that?
That little trinket- I nearly forgot- really.
Little trinkets, tinkering tangible objects,
can be quite fun, believe me.
I’ve had my fair share of fond memories.

You know the saying, “Reduce, reuse, recycle.”
Sometimes I do that with my words.
Reduce, let loose, reuse, abuse, recycle-
the cool thing with words is that they are multifaceted,

But, gosh dangit, sometimes there aren’t rhyming words with “recycle”.... So you do just that: recycle- again (and again, and sometimes again, but, this time, paraphrased)

Anyways. Unfortunately, my tired brain forgets,
So unless I jot it down well,
those goals with their multi-facets,
I underestimate them until they reveal themselves.

By this time, it may be too late,
but I forget how I’m young.
However, If I were to be blatantly
honest, hearing this, at first, stung.

Growing up, you hear about lists
and how people want to accomplish
certain things- you get the jist.
The standard I set for myself flourished

In the environment I was given,
but only after I was old enough to drive,
know how finances operated for livin’,
so that I may be successful. To thrive.

I’m sorry to bore you with my words:
my tales of unforeseen potential.
Growing up is fun, but I’ve learned
how the use of those trinkets are circumstantial:

You gotta know when to take advantage of them.

I wanted to write something just.... cause I wanted to write something (idk). Here’s another quirky little bit of word babble that my mind conjured up.

The clouds gather and threaten me.
Little do they know what I've been through.
If they did,
They would know that their
Evil faces are nothing.
The lightning has hit me plenty of times.
They say it never strikes the same place
Twice.
It does.
You just don't see it coming.
Every time I feel the jolt,
I nearly die.
My hearts
Slows...
Slows...
Slows...
Until
I think
I'm going
To die.
But I don't.
I get struck again, but the spark revives me.
As the tingles run down my spine,
I try optimism.
It won't hit me again if I don't waiver.
But it does
Death,
Life,
Death,
Life,
It keeps changing.
I want to hit it back.
To hang on, go to its source,
And turn the switch.
STOP HITTING ME DANGIT!
I'm not a god.
I trust God though.
I don't know what kind of test this is,
But I trust
That someday
I will be
Shockproof.

— The End —
