The Mountain

I climbed and I climbed
with dust falling into my eyes
I climbed and I climbed
not stopping until I die
I climbed and I climbed
with rocks slipping beneath my feet
I climbed and I climbed
for I must not be beat
I climbed and I climbed
not letting my body give in
I climbed and I climbed
until I reach the very end
I climbed and I climbed
because they told me so
I climbed and I climbed
to reach the impossible

The Straight and Narrow

The path we walk
can be certain for so long
Towards the park
On the beach
Through the trees

The night we run
can be dark for so long
in the city
driving home
going to sleep

When do we collapse
When do we crumble
Where is my path
Where is my temple

I've been told to live on the straight and narrow
but I secretly cut the corners
I just want to know where I'll be in 10 years
Give me a sign like a neon light arrow

Falling Asleep

A girl lays on top of her bed.
Wishing for the sun to come out
She's tired of all her dreams
knowing that they're all dead

The morning never comes
so she continues to lay down
it's so quiet she can hear her heart
as steady as a bass drum

Seconds, minutes, hours on end
Position in the exact same spot
Realization draws on her
Like harsh strokes of an inked pen

After a while she rolls on her side
no longer wanting to lay on her back
Her imagination runs through her
like wind in her hair on a roller coaster ride

With her hands beneath her head
the sun light finally enters her room
but with her eyes closed she doesn't notice
for she has died laying on top of her bed.

The Fight

My words can't describe
How I know you feel inside
The problem we face tonight 
Will be gone before morning light 

Hiding behind strangers shadows
Trying to avoid the battle
In a war with no soldiers
You will find me shoulder to shoulder

Forward march to the steady beat of the drum
Fires spark but we will not run
Fields and plains all covered in blood
With no faces left in the mud

Victory is past the horizon 
Where I'll find a lonely old man
Who says no more please
So I throw my weapon, turn around and leave

Mothers

The legs you clung to
The stomach that carriedyou
The chest you laid your head on
The shoulders you spilled your tears on
The arms that held you
The hand that fed you
The face that's half your own
would be forever know.
For her soul, body, and mind
are far more advanced beyond its time.

What happened to our friendship?

Secrets are kept
Promises are broken
Our friendship wept
as we lost another token

Yell, break, hurt, push, cry
Where does that leave us now?
Can you tell me why?
Can you tell me how?

The world spins and time winds
and we keep completely still
no longer 2 beings with the same mind
now I've got a hole to fill

fuck this

oh the things i would say
you'd never look at me the same
how i cant stand you guys
majority of the time

Oh my god i was going to write a poem about this shit but i can't even do that. fuck these guys. I'm getting sick and tired of their shit. I am no where near a perfect person and i am definitely not above anyone but i can't stand them. i honestly want to punch each and every single one of them in the face...well MAYBE not one of them. I've been trying so fucking hard no to.
