our trees

here in your arms
hanging our feet off of the branches
i can see into yours eyes
and i can see all of my chances
and hear the wind whistling
as the breeze goes by
cant seem to concentrate
as i lose myself in your eyes
your the one i want
as i hear the birds sing
as i see the sun setting
as i see what happiness i bring
and i cherish every moment
of the time spent in this tree
cause i know forever
this place will only be for you and me

BE KIND

It seems a heart can be opened
With just a few kind
Words to them, words to them
To keep on their mind
Don’t just turn away turn away
Help that you can receive
Or give to someone
Who’s in need
Of a little love
Of a little love
Give out those smiles
Hand out some hugs
And don’t turn away, turn away
The ones who don’t know right
Help them through their strife
And be kind
I know a mind can be cleared
Of those thoughts that can rise
With conversation, conversation
Of you and your life
And if you hold their hand hold their hand
Through their cries and their tears
They can learn of hope
Those who are in need
Of a little love
Of a little love
Give out those smiles
Hand out some hugs
And don’t turn away, turn away
The ones who don’t know right
Help them through their strife
And be kind
So take a chance and give a care
Speak the gospel start to share
The love of his plan and of his light
Share a little love
Share a little love
Give out those smiles
Hand out some hugs
And don’t turn away, turn away
The ones who don’t know right
Help them through their strife
And be kind

evoked acceptance

im glad that you are on the road to inner happiness.
im also on the road, but ive got a longer road to go. i have family to overcome, feelings to overcome, choices to overcome. i have friends to get over, boys to get over, life to get over.
but i do know one thing. nothing has never made me more happier and made me feel so accepted as ROTC. eveyone takes me as i am and doesnt judge. they realize that to really be called a team, you have to accept each other and move on. AND ROTC DOES THAT FOR ME . it moves me.
and even at this moment, i have tears streaming down my face becuz of these emotions that are evoked each time i think of the aceptance and the teamwork. i am going to make rotc my life, atleast until i graduate., then, who knows.
these tears are a symbol that happiness can be found in anything, you just have to find it and hold on.

poetry

a song within itself
to behold and hold up to the sky
a remake of theworld
I want to be a part of them
the words i rearrange
and can change anytime
i want to ponder them
to feel them in my palm
and in my soul and in my mind
i want to reach them
to see inside their soul
and feel the life that grows
i want to breach them
i want to breathe the bond
that keeps them locked in other worlds
i want to discover them
to exceed heights of all galore
and hold them all forevermore
i want to be of them
i want to combine the equations
of our being together
i wnt to succeed them
i want to fly and flitter
high into all space until we are one
i want to be a part of them
poetry

just go

All I want from you tonight
Is for you to spread your wings and take flight
Into the sky
Oh its time to say goodbye
Just take your stuff and head out the door
I don’t want to see you anymore
Just go, go and escape this pain
We lasted for a few months
But baby, it’s not working out
You know this, know this
But still you want to shout
Fighting won’t help this situation
All we can do, all we can do
Is just follow moderation
All I want from you tonight
Is for you to spread your wings and take flight
Into the sky
Oh its time to say goodbye
Just take your stuff and head out the door
I don’t want to see you anymore
Just go, go and escape this pain
We can’t be together
We can’t work this out
Our time is now finished
But go on and shout
Crying won’t help bring this to attention
All we can do, all we can do
Is just lock this up in detention
All you want from me tonight
Is for me to spread my wings and take flight
Into the sky
You say that its time to say goodbye
Ill take my stuff and head out the door
You don’t want to see me anymore
Ill go, go and escape this pain

truth be told

truth be told
info might leak
to the press
what would they think?
what would they drink
what would they seek
if info from me
somehowed leaked

truth be told
what would they say
if they found out
some things today
what would they pay
if time today
was set aside
what would they say

truth be told
i do not care
you never said
you never shared
you didnt hold
out what you told
so now tears cry
from years of old

truth be told
i cannot see
why you held back
whats wrong with me
your will aint free
it came to me
i found it out
i can now see

truth be told
there was no trust
only lies
and long loved lust
there was some rust
i might combust
but what there wasnt
was some trust

truth be told
the truth is gone
how can i trust
i wasnt wrong
it wasnt long
before the song
of this deceits
truth was gone

tears

they suddenly come like an oncoming car

rolling down the high way, soon they dont seem so far

you cant keep them away and they spring up at once

you dont know what to do you feel like a dunce

and your heart starts to tear because of your tears

they bring up those feelings those unbearable fears

theyre a door to a world and you see through your eyes

you see your victory and your own demise

and you cant hold them back and they start to flow

and you soon loosen up and start to let go

and your mind is just reeling

your heart full of feeling

your eyes full of tears

but then you start seeing

the part of this world that can be from delight

and you turn down that path and see the light

and more tears start to fall, but this time your free

you see a different meaning, free from misery

and you see that tears are more than cold

blood that falls from the oldscars inside, but now you find

joy can be found from tears

goodbye

goodbyes are like the fallen rain
they seem to last forever but seem too short
you can barely stand to walk away
without catching yourself looking back
you wonder what will happen
while your gone and far away
you think of turning back
and going back to how it was before
but then you realize then
that it wont be the same
and youll wonder what could have been
so when you follow down the path
and finally walk away
your heart will ache from goodbye
and youll want to go back
and give yourself more time
before you had to leave
and sometimes youll want to cry
and you wont fall asleep
some nights youll stay and lie awake
regretting those last words
and youll want to go back
and never say goodbye

hallelujah for starbursts

as sweet as the rainbow
as colorful as the sun
i pick up another
but the taste has just begun
i put two red together
and pop it in my mouth
it taste so good,
oh i just want to shout:
HALLELUJAH!
for these fruit squares i now hold
HALLELUJAH!
everyone has to be told
HALLELUJAH!
i dont want to let them go
but soon they will be gone
(i will eat them!)

strong-willed: will to be strong

she has the will to be strong
has the strength to carry on
has the hope of a dreamer
and if you could see her
for who she really was inside
she would no more have to hide
from your words and your distinctions
ugly words you keep on bringin'
all youve heard is mixed up lies
who she is is no disguise
she who masks herself in times of need
cus' of those who take her dignity
but if you new her inside out
you would see she's proud and stout
in her mind and in her soul
but if you dont try, you'l never know.

cant find caitlin

here in this room
and the talk in full bloom
and i cant seem to see
what i really want to
and shes gone from my sight
and i wuz in a fright
cause i cant find my friend
who is so full of light
and im mad and steaming
and thinking of leaving
my heart is so heavy
my chest now is heaving
but into my path comes
two people who surcome
the friendship i wanted
i take they give and won
my love and attention
ill be in detention
from what i had thought
oh its far from derision
and here i now close
my friend neari now know
but she cant come to me
now from you i must go.
