She sat
Upset
Memories running through her head
Thoughts filled
With people and places
Voices speaking at insane paces
All a shred of something you once had
And as you said
She couldn't forgive them
The crossfires
Of our hearts desires
Will never get us far.
The lessons we learn
And the rewards we earn
Will shine as bright as a star.

The burdens we carry
Are nothing but heavy
With all the doubts we face.
In sickening times
Within all the hateful rhymes
We all eventually win the chase.

Till death do us part
Till the last beat of my heart
I will never let you go.
The darkness may come
But never forget to hum
The song of beautiful tomorrow.
-n.s.
Let's escape together
No matter the weather.
Just take me home.
I dont want to be alone.

Just take me home,
And tear down the curse'ed walls
Stone by stone.
Stone by stone.

-n.s.

don't give up
the feeling of catastrophe
don't give up
the feeling of life or death
that came with every boy's call
don't forget
that beautiful pain
when you see her
kissing the one you love
don't forget how you cried
and how you tore open your heart for a night
don't forget how it felt
to be young forever
flying down the street
in your beat up car
used long before you were born
believing that you were the king of the world
don't forget
that one day
you will forget
the painful feelings
of living like today
was your last day
She said her goodbyes
Like she was leaving town
She said her goodbyes
Like we might run into her tomorrow
Too bad her goodbyes lasted so much longer
Is there anything that truly lives forever?
Is it love, happiness, wisdom?
Life & peace?
No sir, not even these.
We all must accept,
that to which has a beginning
must have an end.
For love can not spring,
until we experience hate.
Happiness can not flourish,
unless someone knows sorrow.
Wisdom cannot be attained,
untill one has seen his own mistakes.
Life can not exist,
withought a birth from a mother.
And peace can not manifest itself,
until one experiences war.
So to must everything have a beginning
and an end.
But with what may die,
ought to give life to the next.
This poem is my idea of the beauty of death. This shows to me (aswell to others) that with death, comes new life. When we all die, our bodies will take its last breath and then kick the bucket. A few days pass, and our bodies decay into the ground. In that decay, carries nutrients into the ground, which may feed a plant or an animal. And finally, when a pregnant mother eats the plant, the nutrients You provide will manifest itself into the womb, which will help give life to the mext generation and so on. This, is the true beauty of Death.
There are those kind of people,
who may tear you down,
hurt your feelings,
make you feel like
you're worthless.
But there are those kind of people,
who will stop at nothing
to see you smile,
and laugh,
and enjoy life.
Those kind of people
are the people,
that make this world,
and your own world
a better place.
This one is a tribute to anyone who has helped me in my life. Dead or alive, thank you for everything.
As I sit under the Orange Tree,
a place where no one can see,
I think of the world's greater things.
Like life, love,
and the songs that birds sing.

Under the Orange Tree, I can be anything.
A knight, a prince, or even a king!
Under this tree, is my favorite place on earth.
Cause this a place, to me, of great worth.

Under the Orange Tree, I am truly home.
A place where my imagination can freely roam,
& no one can take my from this tree.
For this is my tree, and my tree is a part of me.

Never will I forget the times under the Orange Tree.
The ones where I felt like I could just be me.
And as I sit here, all year long,
I say, "sing again birdies, life is to short to hear just one song"
I wrote this as a tribute to my younger self. To never stop dreaming of your owm personal Neverland.
I've never seen
so much pain.
We are all caught in this world
that's cursed in vain.
The struggles are real.
So very true they are.
It is our job to fight through them
and to seal away the demons in a jar.
Hold on tight.
Get ready for the ride.
Always be brave.
Never try and hide.
This is your life.
Take it by the horns.
Life is a wonderful journey.
Not just a tour.
