Post #17 - individuals

2009-04-11T13:26:00.001-07:00

I Am an Individual cause I am Human
or is humanity only the first step
Define Myself with my Individual Plan
In thoughts gone wild while a I slept

Of not painting myself by numbers
I lose you but find myself in slumber
as dreams outline brush strokes to come
eventually my my portrait will be done

I am an Individual

Post #16 - Our Revolution

2008-08-02T08:24:00.000-07:00

Sitting here in swift drift to conviction
I stand by clear concise diction
of principle and philosophy
that this is a path to liberty

with my hand over my heart
and my mind ready to start
a battle for mans resolution
this battle, a revolution

Post #15 - A Tell Tale Lie

2008-06-14T06:55:00.001-07:00

A lie without truth is no lie at all
For a lie is a truth from a diffent light
Charachter defined statements said
A lie is a truth that one can't stand tall
A lie is a truth that ones lost what's right
A lie is a truth of the facts we weren't fed

Post #14 - The Past

2008-05-06T13:15:00.000-07:00

The Past can be like a battle scar
a sign of pain and lessons learned
left by the loss of what was yearned

The Past can be like a weight
slowing you down from taking leaps and bounds
to a future with answers as great as that sounds

to let the past leave you from within
to let the future continually flow in
yet I cling to past as if we could win

Post #13 - Context

2008-04-24T19:26:00.000-07:00

In a world without context
we would exist
In a world without pretext
I would persist
I've loved love that was doomed by distance
I've loved love that was doomed by time
in a world without factual persistence
I might find a love I can call mine

Post #12 - Life

2008-04-19T05:08:00.000-07:00

The goose runs and I follow
in a series of quests that best the worst of me

this advice rings hollow
the words reverb to preserve what I currently see

why do I work to fail
must I always succeed at falling through

strubborn the center of the tale
that has kept me distracted for years from you

whoever you are
I'll see you when I get there

Post #11: A Picture Alone

2007-10-22T16:39:00.000-07:00

My Heart Aches for a Mirror Image
Done the days of this lonely visage
a heart can not pump alone
to lose pace in it's somber tone
as it tells it's tale of the blood rush
that two heart can make this love gush
this poor lonely hearts suture
is the result of a lonely picture

Post #10: Coffee

2007-10-07T13:47:00.000-07:00

simple hot tasty
coffee with a friend tells tales
perfect mellow crazy
creamer makes my joe pale

in this moment of quiet contemplation with those eyes staring back
realizing these are the moments that soon we will both lack
we take a sip and continue to contemplate
look up and smile and accept this is fate

Post #9: Dream Goals

2007-09-27T20:21:00.000-07:00

Dreams that are not manifested to goals
serve no good and take their toll
they mislead and impede from what can
and distract you from making any plan

a dream turned goal
can fix it all
clear path paved in sand
all you'll need is a hand

so to dream without goals is bad
to have goals without dreams is sad
so dream
have goals
succeed

Post #8: A Heart Travels

2007-09-23T18:59:00.000-07:00

A heart Travels Unparallel
to the brain two stories to tell
to take experience and unite
and make a story so right
we recollect to form ourselves
my heat feels pain
my brain sense danger
of something to gain
from this feeling stranger
they acquaint
so quaint
the prodigal heart returns
broken from another risk
the brains said it learns
but the heart just yearns to break again

Post #7: A Person Deferred

2007-09-17T21:19:00.000-07:00

Will people ever see the me cause
I have built a large statue of myself
it blocks the light with a shade
well displayed to keep me out of sight
when an eclipse of person and image occurs
tights lips will in let out thought defers

cause

a image is like a person deferred
absent from the dialogue of thoughts referred

I'm this I'm that
no ears as image overpowers your voice
To create that image on your terms
with coming hours it's your choice

brand or be branded
define or be defined
fill in the dots or get caught
in webs of assumptions and prejudice
to forever be boxed with a tight lock
staring for time as it leaves the right clock

You be You

Post #6: People Pleaser

2007-09-09T14:22:00.000-07:00

To satisfy the wants and desires of those I love and adore I am floored in a stress dressed in red which said to me see in this web you've spun which has begun in a fun twist begun to unwind into a cyst of hardened hearts to start the downward spiral of the fall, the fall of the people pleaser.

Post #5: Nutrition

2007-08-28T11:19:00.000-07:00

Vitamin E to keep me soft
Vitamin B for a strong heart
Vitamin C for my health
love to feel alive

Post #4: I am

2007-08-24T15:21:00.001-07:00

I am who I wanna be
I am who you see
with flesh and blood hands
and flesh and blood feet
I face lifes uncompromising demands
or accept uncompromising defeat
to succeed
I am the me that me needs

Post #3: APATHY

2007-08-19T10:11:00.000-07:00

Always staying two steps behind to
Procratinate the unavoidable duty
Allocated to everyone
Through the mere fact that
Here you are alive in
Your world of your choosing

Post #2: Words and More Words

2007-08-15T15:56:00.000-07:00

To Sit and outwit time
in clever pretension
we are all victims in crime
of lifes tell tale tension
at the click clock deadline
we stare and rage
cause everything would be fine
if here on lifes stage
we asked and said
please

Post #1: Hello World

2007-08-14T08:57:00.000-07:00

This blog is for me to exercise my imagination, my vocabulary, and creativity through poetry, lyrics, and other verbal art. So feel free to enjoy what I put up and comment on it if you wish.

I believe

My beliefs will set me up for disappointment

I believe

My opinions will one day show my ignorance

I believe

One day I will hurt someone I love

I believe

I'll help someone I shouldn't

I believe

I'm Human
