These are a few poems/lyrics that I wrote. I would just like to share and get everyones feedback. Hope you enjoy.
"Letters Signed Friend"
He’s swept away by this room full of people Like a giant wave of things that could have been That might have been Pulls him under and slams him down Barely returning to the surface That corner looks so inviting But the view from there is a brick wall His muscles tighten as fear takes hold His head drops and his eyes gasp for air But then she walks in through the door And his heart falls to the floor Now he’s standing in front of life’s mosaic A gift that everyone endures She doesn’t even notice him
Then to his right a voice chimes in Like a sweet breeze of seraphim She said, “Im adding this entry in hopes it will help you.” “The only thing you need to understand is that people grow and change.” “What you had before will never happen again.”
Now he gathers his heart up off the floor In hopes of reconstruction Or maybe just out of stupidity He begins to realize that pretension is a rough road And as much as he wants to he can’t Take those things he said back He’s stuck for what seems like an eternity Trying to put the pieces back together There’s a voice by a normally unabated friend “Don’t give up.” He says
He breathes again for the first time in months And begins to laugh “Excuse me.” He says dropping his grief A certain sign of relief He finds his nerve that’s been lost all along He happily sees he wasn’t wrong A million thoughts are streaming like a river Through his head Abruptly stop He’s beginning to find his wings all over again
This next one was chemically inspired, its about my dog.
"Little White Dragon"
My backyard, that’s where I was, just soaking up the moon When a little white dragon came to me around the opposite of noon He’s on a mission to make sure his story never ends Listen up close, if you catch a break, he’ll tell it all again
Sit right there, the dragon yelped, let me show you how its done He shook his tail and raised his ears and pointed toward the sun He was a brave one, this little lamb, was afraid to go out in the rain So he laid on my bed, curled up tight and he shook his tail again
He’s the littlest white dragon He tried to tell me just what happened
His name was Chabro, weird, I know, called by all his friends Came to me in a time of need, didn’t know where to begin He was famished, oh I know, so I gave him a bowl of food Funny thing, in all my life I’ve never been so confused He walked upstairs, he took a left and ate my tennis shoes Came back down the winding stairs and he broke to me the news
Well, he’s my best friend, the little guy, wouldn’t trade him for the world Never knew that he could fly but he showed me that he could He did doughnuts, like a bird, way up in the sky And when he came down I looked at him and asked him for a ride
Im not lazy, the dragon said, but I don’t want to fly again I could be sleeping, you never know, I snore with my eyes open Well the next day, my dragons tail, sadly came to an end Instead of words he let out a bark and turned to a dog again
This last one I wrote while smoking with a friend who plays a guitar. He came up with a little tune and sung it. I was pleasantly suprised at how good it sounded.
"The Weed Song"
You do not know where you are going Im already here you’re moving to slowly I tell everyone to listen up closely I’ll say this just once please dont choke me
I’ve got a strawberry cough I cant stop hackin’ My bowls gettin’ empty I better start packin’ Blueberry buds, true moonshine and diesel I’ve got a QP of hash sittin’ in my freezer I smoke three times a day lunch, dinner and breakfast Watchin’ the cops hope they dont arrest us
Cause we’re lickin blunts’ and rollin’ up papers We’re not moving from here until somebody makes us Lift up your eyes you’ll need them wide open To take another hit of my powerful potion
Pull on that spliff light up the cherry Gangsta that hit we’re in no hurry But dont hold it too long enough for a shotgun Pass it this way I think that its my turn Now im one hit away and im sinkin deeper Into the couch and this heady reefer
Now the friends that I have help me with my habit Smokin me out every time I dont have it A girls heart can be won with diamonds and whistles But the way to my heart is a bud filled with crystals Theres too many things that I cant remember Its like the signals to my brain were returned to sender
-------------------- I am a faker. Pretending along.
