Watch my face, as I take your warm embrace.
There's no smile, hasn't been one for a while.
'Cause you don't listen to me, you don't listen to me.
No, you don't listen to me, why don't you listen to me.

I let you steal my stars, steal my stars.
I let you have my heart, have my heart.
I let you have your way, every second, every minute, every day.
But you never really listen to me.
These are song lyrics as opposed to poetry!

A minds way is but a clouded fog...
When you let yourself lose self in full.

When no path is left to be tread at all...
A right way in past is awaiting you.
The idea being, no true answers will come from your mortal mind. But return to what you know to be true and best. And for me that's faith. When things get though.

do this do that they say
don't look that way look this way
be the way WE want you to be
see the way WE see
then I ask about this or that
and they say "oh no no no"
that's not how WE act
making me realize
they don't want be to be abstract

Her hair is so dark,
And her eyes so bright.
A smile so beautiful,
It gives off light.
Gorgeous to see but beautiful within,
Intelligent, sassy, and bold.
She takes the time to share a smile,
In a world that can be so cold.
She is beautiful in every way,
I just wanted to say thank you,
For being a part of my da.
Writing the way
To the sunlight
of another day.
The weather might ****
Or the bills pile up
and I'm **** out of luck....
I just pick up a pen
and escape these "Joys" of another "way"
To escape to my own created literary world...
As I write the way to another day.

I’m on my way to find my soul,
With it I believe I will be whole.
Page after page I devoured some books.
Why, I wonder, do I get sour looks?
I only speak what's on my mind,
People say that it isn't kind.
But tell me just why I should lie,
What is there to fear when I'm about to die?
Pain and sorrow never do last
Neither do the actions in our past,
Happiness too flies away,
Is there something here to stay?
My existence is all I feel,
Then just why should I believe
In this world of changing lights?
Things come and go; Are they alive?
Soon, I hope the day will come
Where I will decide on what should become
Of this life that led me here
To this moment of utter fear.
I disappear or do I stay?
In this life tell me, I pray.
This was the first poem I published online, though the website now doesn't work anymore.

Sometimes I found myself
Laughing out loud,
Just to catch your attention.

Sometimes I just walk
In silence,
Looking why are you distracted.

Other days,
I just breath,
I just live.

Either way,
I know our time flow.
Now that we both go
In different directions.
I just thought,
How ironic people are.
How time is more than some question.
