ENRAPT

It’s so hard to keep this smile off my face The pieces are finally falling in place He flirts with me as I blush with joy God, I really missed that boy If only things had been different But there’s nothing we can do about it Things are as they are and things are now fine So why pay the past any mind...

GROAN- WHINE

Lack of sleep, back breaking pain "Seriously, Jillian, What were you thinking?" Stay up all night and then clean all day As a surprise to my parents for Turkey Day I can usually breeze through two rooms in 60 minutes Yet I find myself taking a break every chance that I get I tell myself I need a...

THE TRUTH

He will not fight for me He feels himself too weak He can not face life with a smile He’ll never go that extra mile Just to reap the benefits of a hard day’s work He doesn’t know his worth And he doesn’t know how much I care for him And how hard it is to be the stronger one And not fall into his...

USED AND REUSED

Know I’ve been used I know I let it all happen My heart has been bruised Y et it’s still so easily opened I give in too soon Reward those who’ve won nothing Keep saying I’m through With this careless loving I’m getting so paranoid My trust in others is fading What am I really trying to avoid?

Usually when asked if I like myself I strongly answer yes But tonight I sort of feel like hell I’m lonely and depressed I'll allow myself this one night To curse the day I was born With the coming of morning’s light May I turn over a new stone I’ll be plenty fine tomorrow At Anna’s sweet sixteen...

MISSING JOEY

I want to have that feeling again I want to be released from the pain I need a love that will last And not happen too fast A friendship with a lover I just shouldn’t bother Because all of my loves have been enshrouded with sex Except one who is different from the rest He’s 2,500 miles away And he’s...

GROW UP OR DIE

The cat just farted The stench reminds me of your face When it comes to being retarded You come in first place Your idea of conversation Is just sitting there while someone else talks Your future occupation: Sitting on your parent’s couch No one can touch your beautiful hair Or talk to you when...

PATIENCE IS JUST AN EXCUSE FOR SLOW PEOPLE

Patience is just an excuse for slow people There is always something to be done Obligations to fill Or mowing the lawn A book to read, a time to reflect Even nature lives by a schedule When you get right down to it The Universe is purely Mathematical So all you free-loving hippies Get off of your...

MY DAYDREAMS

My beautiful daydreams I can’t wait to make them come true I’m going to do everything And anything I have to do I will convert that shed to my own personal office And install insulation Try to make it sound proof So it can double for James’s music room Stacks and stacks of different notebooks...

STRANGE HUNGER

I’m at that stage of hunger Where I do not want to eat Because I’m afraid it will bother My poor little tummy It hurts not to eat And it will hurt to eat, too Why am I so hungry And so not in the mood for food? I think I’d make a very sad Winnie the Pooh Sign in to see full entry.
