Shipwreck (OctPoWriMo2015-Day 16)

Do you see the shipwreck over there?Do you see the shipwreck over there?Everyone's staringEveryone's staringThey won't helpBut they won't cover their eyes either
Maybe someone should see the damageMaybe someone should see the damageBut no one's movingBut no one's movingMaybe because they can't provide the bandageMaybe because they think it's hopeless
There's smiles on some facesThere's smiles on some facesThe rest of their expressions are blankThe rest of their expressions are blankThe crowd fi...

In My Wildest Dreams (OctPoWriMo2015-Day 15)

I'd get away from hereI'd go far awayI'd never look backIn my wildest dreams
I'd get a one way ticketStay away from hereRemain unapologeticIn my wildest dreams
I'd co-exist with myselfI'd do whatever I pleaseI'd be my own best friendIn my wildest dreams
I'd be okay with being aloneMy heart would hold no fearI wouldn't need any of youIn my wildest dreams
The world's the limitMaybe even time in spaceNothing would stop meIn my wildest dreams
I'm fearlessI'm braveI'm unforgettable In my wildest d...

Yesterday or Tomorrow (OctPoWriMo2015-Day 14)

Stuck in the middleNot sure where to goLife can be fickle Not sure what to know
Because truth is always blurredIt's never black and whiteMy words are kind of slurredI'm stuck in the middle tonight
Drunk in the middle of a bridgeThat connects yesterday and tomorrowI missed it by a smidgeBut I don't want to go back to sorrow
So if I'm in betweenYesterday and tomorrowIs today unseen? Some logic I could borrow
Because I'm not sure where I standOr what all of this meansIt's like my feet are...

Risky Business (OctPoWriMo2015-Day 13)

I'm sure I'd never write something I don't meanOr walk with a world I refuse to dream Because everything I say means somethingAlthough some emotions are just a fling
Whenever I type a word I risk something that mattersBut if I say nothing at all that will be sadder So sorry if I offend you or make you upsetBut you shouldn't make me mad because you don't know what you'll get
I'm a writer, artist, and a poetDon't act surprised, like you didn't know itBecause everything to me is fair gam...

Welcome To Adulthood (OctPoWriMo2015-Day 12)

Am I crazy for thinking there's more?Because I feel like this can't be allCould I find it if I knew what to look for?Don't say there's nothing behind this wall
Everything contains something deeperFear would love to prove that theory wrongGoing the other route because it's cheaperHoping what I need won't pass me along
Impossible things happen all the time"Just believe," they all sayKinder things have happened to evil soulsLet's not talk about that today
My mind is a wandering battleNever ending a...

Surprise Me! (OctPoWriMo2015-Day 11)

I look in the mirror"Surprise me," you sayBut I don't know if I canIt never worked out this way
"Just give it a shot""Go ahead and try it"Got to learn to take risksBecause you never know what you'll get
But I'm glad I listenedAnd put myself out thereBecause sometimes you're rightAnd there's nothing to fear

Untamed Heart (OctPoWriMo2015-Day 10)

Ink me goodOr bad if you chooseI have an untamed heartThat will never lose
Don't go by guidelinesI don't believe in rulesI'm an untamed heartI see from a different view
Don't want what you wantDon't care what you sayMy heart is untamedIt'll always be this way
You tell me to grow upBut rebellion isn't a phaseMy heart's not tamedI was born a renegade
This is who I amIt's in my bloodMy heart can't be tamedThat's how it always was

There's Fire In You... (OctPoWriMo2015-Day 9)

Sparks flyI let them igniteFirestorms were always my favoriteWater driesAnd you can't see the windAnd sometimes the earth cracks beneath your feetBut fire burnsAnd it spreads throughout the nightDestroying anything that gets in it's wayIt doesn't stop at any costI always admired that
Fire is everywhereIn your eyesYour gutYour heartBirthed from nothing but just a tiny sparkNow it's a four alarm fireAnd it can't be stoppedThere's no runningNo hiding
Just spread your arms and embrace itTo the mill...

Color Me Black (OctPoWriMo2015-Day 8)

Black is what I always wasSo I decided to embrace itHeartache, mystery and sophisticastionThey all can sum me upJust a little bitBut I know what color I am, it's a perfect fit
I'm the color people stay away fromThey can't read meTo them, I'm a loaded gunBut I'm not here to talk about weaponsBecause the words I write are plenty24 years and they still don't get me
They think this means I'm dark on the insideYet this may be trueBut there's still a light that shinesBecause black doesn't mean I'm ba...
