Defeated

Nothing personal in a while so let me tell you a story

——————————————————————————————

Once upon a time, there was a boy. A bright, talented boy, so his loved ones observed. He grew smart, witty, intelligent, hardy, strong, cunning, and charming. And he held the very world at his fingertips.

Yet at the onset of dawn, when his adventure just began to start, a storm struck.

A hurricane that all but plunged the boy into the deepest, darkest ocean floor. Never one to yield, he fought. Until the last breath escaped his body, forever captured in a fragile bubble. A fragile bubble that floated to the sunlit surface was all the change that he ever made in this world.

So this boy fell. Buried under insurmountable odds against the remnants of his will.

He was no longer the boy his loved ones observed. He was dim and ordinary. He grew slow, weak, and desperate to prove that he was worth even a penny’s thought.

But he didn’t.

And once upon a time, there was a grave.

Unconditional

She was short in stature A little small in frame But her heart was bigger Than even the fiercest flame She was a drop of sunshine In a raging storm She was a spot of starlight When black night began to form Her words were spoken gently As she laid her soft head on her mother's lap To warm her so lovingly And bridge loneliness's gap She taught me that strength doesn't always come through fists And that courage doesn't always come through valor But when love is truly needed most And hope is needed to capture The beauty of her life All too short, but all the more sweet To cherish and to love A pup that made life complete Fate gave her a chance And love kept her alive And with that gentle prance Came an angel destined to arrive

Supposed To Be

Maybe I made a mistake Somewhere along the way See, I thought that mothers Were supposed to heal you Wrap your wounds in bandages And set your free so you can Spread your wings and fly And I thought that fathers Were supposed to be heroes Kind of like Superman, you know Doing the impossible, someone who I wanted to be just like But after a few words Worthless, Useless, Good for nothing, Stupid, Ignorant, Ungrateful, Everything I knew, everything I was  Was just a sad excuse Who am I, really If they used these words to define me Then I guess that must be who I am I'm nothing special, they said I'm not, and I never pretended to be I'm no one, they said I never wanted to be someone in the first place You haven't done anything to be proud of yet, they said Maybe you're right After all, who can balance everything I'm doing On a tightrope with flames licking my feet You promised me a second chance And crushed my soul before you gave it to me Just like the ink that bleeds off the paper From the tears that stain an idea of a son that would never be I'm sorry that I'm not that kid that you dreamed That little kid that would grow up to be some Lawyer, doctor, Nobel prize laureate, Whatever I just had a talent for words Words that you twisted and turned on me like knives Can I say I'm surprised. Not really After all, according to you Life doesn't equal love It equals the money you have in your pocket

Lost, Scared, and Alone

It started when I saw your sweater lying on my bedside As I came home from a sunny, afternoon run Sweat ran down my face In little rivulets that trickled to the floor in drops My heart had been beating a little too fast And a little too happily I looked up, expecting to see your green eyes And your brown hair glow like honey As sunlight danced in its' curls and waves I thought I'd see you waiting, Looking right at me And somehow, I'd know that everything was okay But you weren't there That sweater has been lying on my bedside For as long as I avoided the truth The cold, dark, empty truth Through moonlit days and rainy years When I looked up The bed was empty And the sleeve on your sweater hung off the side Like a ghost's arm reaching for nothing That sun turned to clouds And that hope turned to rain In that moment, I had never felt more lost I had never felt more scared I had never felt more alone R.S. 4/21/14

Lovebird

I loved that cute little brunette  The way her eyes dreamed of paper words and colored worlds Beyond lost in her fantastic story that wrote itself on barren walls  While the rest of us were chained by monotonous droning without hope of catharsis She was only seven feet away from me yet her soul didn't exist in the same room She flew away She was her heroine, and I was some guy who couldn't keep my eyes off of her Just like lovebirds that chased each other from dawn till dusk The boundless energy she spent in her imaginary realm Made me want to so badly be a part of it She herself, was her own love story And my eyes sugarcoated by awe and curiosity But the way the sunlight made her hair golden honey, And her eyes become flawless emeralds  You could only wonder why when she cast a glance at me And just the smallest, shyest smile I had felt like my soul had taken flight as well And become its' own little lovebird Chasing after her in that fantastic story

Mayflower

If April showers bring May flowers Then you would be my silver lining The light that breaks from storm wakes Leaves my lovesick heart sighing Spring breeze was the way you held me tight The wintry roses that died within Blossomed in your love's soft light And saved me from my worst sins Love me the way storms fall Fierce, passionate, unwavering Kiss me the way rain drops Soft, sweet, sincere The sound of your name that bounced off the tip of my tongue And the way your love fell all around me Was how a lonely graveyard became a lush garden After April showers brought May flowers R.S. 3/30/13

I think my body has finally reached its' breaking point...I have never felt worse. I hope this hasn't got anything to do with my complication.

How I feel about religion. God should be presented as what he is, love and kindness. Stop using his name to justify your racism, homo phobia and sexesim
