You Said You would start tomorrow

You said you would start tomorrow

But tomorrow has come and gone

Yet you sit in the exact same spot

You sat in once before

No progress made at all today

So you plan to make progress tomorrow

But what's the point of pushing it off?

What's the point in waiting til tomorrow? 

Day by Day by Day you plan

Plan to do something new

Yet you plan to do this tomorrow

But you never follow through

Oh wait until the years pass you by

Because by then you will finally see

That saying you will start tomorrow

Only hindered you indeed

All the things you could have accomplished

But you just kept putting off

You have lost your youth and soon

your clock will finally stop

Just Kinda

Kinda like a melody 

That plays over and over in my head

The sound of the sweet music

Could even reawaken the dead

It's kinda like the sugar

That is in your favorite fruit

It dances on your tongue awhile

Until you swallow that juice

It's kinda just like that

Well that's what my mother said

That feeling that just can't go away

The feeling that you will try to get

over and over again

A feeling you want some much

And quite frankly so do I

But what is this feeling exactly

It's just kinda how I feel inside

Eye for an Eye

An eye for an eye
A tooth for a tooth
Where does this leave us?
Does it bring us truth?

You punch me
Then I punch you
Does it solve anything?
Some people think that it do

But what is the purpose to act just the same?
Have hate in your heart
And then on others place the blame

They say do on to others as they do on to you
But were they speaking of violence
Or is this statement just not true

I slander your name
You slander mines
You break my heart
And you know my response
I will do everything that you do to me
It will not solve anything
But I will be happy.......

But why does the world seem to think like this?
Violence solves violence
This is what they honestly think
Whatever happened to turning the other cheek ?
Being the bigger person and keeping the peace
We seem to retaliate
When given no true purpose
Therefore we are no better than the so called monster

An eye for an eye
That's what they always say
But I don't understand how you can get rid of hate with hate
Maybe I am naive
Or maybe I just can't see
But my heart breaks daily
Because all I want to see is peace

Everyone Is A Winner

Everyone is a winner
Well, at least that is what they say
Seems like everyone deserves a trophy
Even if they do not play

We are afraid to tell others the truth
Because we fear we may hurt their feelings
So everyone thinks they are the best at all times
Everyone thinks they are winners

What have we taught our younger generation?
What are they striving for?
So many put down teachers when they say their child needs to try harder

Little Timmy on the baseball team
Jennifer who loves to dance
They can't receive any criticism
Or their parents will get mad

What has our world come to?
Seems like everyone needs a prize
No one can have their feelings hurt
No one can be criticized

Everyone has to be winners
But in order to win you must reach a goal
And so few are willing to do what it takes
Because they feel as though it is owed
This sense of entitlement weakens our future as we speak

At the end of the day
We all can't be winners
Because some of us will face defeat

An Untouched Memory

How nice is an untouched memory

That is just so pure

It glistens and shines greater than all

But is not accepted by most

How nice is an untouched memory

That has not been tainted at all

A memory that is waiting to be released

But only to one who deserves

How nice is an untouched memory

I really have no clue

Because even though I should be proud of it

It is what distances me from you.

You Light Up My Life

Just like a star

On the darkest night

You reach out your hand to me

And within my realm of darkness

You hear my heartfelt plea

I am consumed with fears

And one of these fears is being alone

So you wrap me in your warm embrace

To show that I always have a home

The light which shines within you

Is such a beautiful thing

Thanks for being my guide

Throughout my darkest of days
