Cinderella, Darling Dont Turn Down The Prince

Why cant i get you out of my mind
It seems the world is just making time
To torture and ridacule me,
Why cant it just let me be,
Be the one to hold you in my arms,
I know I could be your prince charms,
And we'd have that fairytale ending,
The one that you dreamt about in the beginning,
Once upon a time it would start,
That story that would never fall apart,
It would never unwind or turn bad,
No downturns or parts sad,
It would be the typical romance,
We'd have the ball and we'd dance,
You'd be the cinderella princess id never harm,
And id be the prince that you always charmed,
And we'd see things in a new way,
New adventures each day,
And on the day we shed laughter,
The finale would say, "And they lived happily ever after."

Stars

The one thing in this world I can count on is the stars
Though infinite, will always be there.
They wont tell your secret desires when you wish upon them.
When they shoot they are not aiming to cause harm.
When they shine they look to guide and you look to one to find your home.
The North Star will always guide you to where your heart is "home is where the heart is" and the stars can see it.
They are these massive things that see into us and view our lives.
The stars will always be around as long as you are looking.
That first one to wish upon, as a child its a magic moment to close your eyes and wish upon that star, it seems to just shine brighter than all the rest, even if it isnt really.
Everyone says how big and vast we are compared to other creatures, but just look at the stars, vast and uncountable.
The night sky brings the first sense of hope, the twinkle of the stars and the light they leave for us.
A staple for a romantic moonlight walk, that hope for the lost dreamer, the getaway from the city for the overworked business man.
Everyone looks to the sunset as the most beautiful thing, but look at the stars.
The way I figure, there is one star for each of us, both past present and future, and as long as there is someone looking out into the night sky to view the stars, they will remain endless and vast.
The magic within the glory of the galaxy.
Take a look, see the natural beauty that we can already see that is not on our planet. Beauty beyond this galaxy.

Set Myself Free

My world is changing
And I'm trying to rearrange
My mind wants one thing
But my heart begs to differ
I just want things to be clear
But the fog comes thicker and thicker
But the day the fog lifts
Will be the day I'll convince
Myself to be true
And to do the things that I do
With a smile on my face
And know that life isn't a race
That each day has its ups
And each day has its downs
But as long as I live my life proudly
How can I live life with a frown
My life is just beginning
And there are many things I can do
And there are things I can be
I want to be happy
And to set myself free

Kryptonite

They say that falling in love is hard on the knees
Personally, I think that falling in love has more of a toll on your heart
It seems that girls are every guy’s kryptonite
That one girl can bring the strongest of men
Crippling to the ground, falling on his knees
With one swift glance
A single girl
Can make a guy’s head start spinning
There is no feeling like being in love
Nothing to relate it to
The only way to know how it feels
Is to experience it
But my question is how
How can one girl make a heart flutter
Make palms sweat
Make a guy start breathing heavily
It is something about all women
God certainly took more time to create women
With their almost super human abilities
Becoming any straight man’s kryptonite
Although we all show t Superman façade
Women will always be our kryptonite
They bring out the best and the worst in us
Women make us do some of the craziest
And possibly stupidest things of our life
Falling head over heals
Girls
My Kryptonite

This Experience Called Life

I was blinded by the light
The light which I see in front of me
The light that just does not seem
To want to let me be
I am pondering my choices
And I am question beliefs
And there is something about me
That just seems to bug
I look at myself in the mirror
And I am not sure what I see
What I was, who I am, or what I am gonna be
My future is a clean slate
I can do with it as I please
I beg the Lord
I’m on my knees
And everything goes blank
How am I to survive
If I have trouble just looking myself in the eye
I don't know where I am supposed to look in this world
My friends are there for me
Of this I am not sure
Most of the time I just seem alone
That everyone just walks right through me
"Cellophane, Mr. Cellophane, Shoulda been my name, Mr. Cellophane, Cause you can look right through my, Walk right by me, And never know Im there"
The story of my life
Im known only by association
Never by communication
My skills are weak
But my heart stays strong
And everything I've ever thought
just seems to all go wrong
But now Ill come full circle
With this poem that poorly rhymes
The life I knew, the things I do
Maybe Im just killing time
Im not taking chances
Not making any stupid mistakes
Im not risking things and making the best
My brains always running full speed
I should be doing stupid things
And fill my life with stories
When I have kids and tell them things
Will I end up regretting this experience called Life?

There's Something To Be Said For The World

I wear my heart on my sleeve just because that’s who I am
I don’t try to impress, just live by reflex
Live each day how I wanna
And if that makes you hate then Im gonna
Take it to the next level
And bring you up to mine
And I'll most certainly find the time
To show you what its like
Looking down on the world and seeing the beauty
All the beauty that is around us day in and day out
And I certainly have no doubt
That I can show you what I see in the world
Because the beauty that I see
Is the beauty most don’t
I see the trees in the breeze and I can hear the music
Listen to the grass sway
As your walking on your way
And when you look up
And you see the birds fly above
And the majestic flight they take
As they look down and see you walking
You don’t really notice but they’re talking
They think your just as unfamiliar as the bird is to you
Now look into the eyes of an infant
So innocent and pure
There is something about that twinkle
That just makes you wanna smile
And their smile is contagious
And your head is pure amazement
About the simplicity of their smile
That something so small
Could bring such joy
And all they really want is some love and care
Now you look to the pet that’s been abused year after year
And the rope tied around their neck
Is the only thing that holding them back
And that day when the dog
Escapes from that sort of chain and finds paradise
And can start a new life
Full of love and joy and a simple bone here and there
And there is something to be said for a family that binds
That they can argue and fight but when times get rough
They are able to stand by each other
And know that there is love
They realize the truth or family:
You don’t have to like your family, But you have to love them
And the love between a family
Is one that can never be broken
There is something to be said about the beauty you can see
If you just take the time to look

Plain and simple

If my head was spinning would you help me up
If I was dying of thirst would I need to beg to fill my cup?
What if I needed someone close I could talk to
Would you believe me if I said that all I wanted is you?
What if my heart told you exactly how it felt
Would you be angry or mad just because I withheld
Let my eyes say it all
You know id just wait for your call
It would be the highlight of my day
Just to hear you say
That you felt the same way
But if your gonna lift me up
Be sure to bring me down slowly
Because from the heights that Ive been
I don't know how Id survive the fall

My Passion

In my life it gives me a great deal of pride to perform on stage. Being able to look out into the spotlight and know that people are watching me. The stage is my canvas and my words are my paintbrush. I could never write a play, nor a musical, never even think about asking me to write a symphony. But in a heartbeat I would act out a play, sing a song in a musical and I could write you a song or write you a story like no other, those are things I am good at or can actually do. I have over a hundred pages of writing. I love writing. I love writing essays, stories, songs, poems and I could just write for hours, in fact I have before. Last year I took a creative writing course, and that teacher pushed me to improve my writing. She pushed me outside of my comfort zone and made me an even better writer. Writing is my passion, what's yours?

Out in the Cold

Look into my eyes and what do you see
Do you see someone that isnt me
What if i closed my eyes to blink
Tell me then, what would you think
If i asked you for coffee would you say yes
What would you say if i asked you to dance
Would i still be the same person that you first met
If you saw this and knew would you tell me so
Or would you just ignore it and leave me out in the cold?

Time for Change

If life hands you lemons you make lemonade, right? But what if life hands you a something the size of a grapefruit? Is there something your supposed to do? Is there some sort of handbook that I never got, something to tell me how to make it through these things without screwing up? How am I supposed to be able to do things if I am so worried about the consequence? Life cant be perfect right, everyone makes mistakes throughout their lives. My life has always been played cool, I just look to how I feel, but I never go with it, I look on with ambition but no action. My heart tells me to go but my mind tells me no, and thats why i get stuck in the middle between where I am and where I want to be. I never work on my courage and just do something that feels right to me. Girls for instance, a topic that makes my brain turn into scrambled eggs just spinning like a smoothie in a blender not noing which way is up. When I like a girl I basically do nothing and then get jealous when she finds someone else, when I shouldnt. If I want something so much, I should be able to take matters into my own hands and I dont know, maybe actually asking that girl out, but no I sit around and just think about how I like her and then never do anything about it. But its gotta change, now! My life is on cloud nine and I never wanna fall off it, Im in college now, why shouldnt I just take a chance at whatever comes my way

That Girl

Do you know what to do when your voice sings that tune
Your heart skips a beat as your walking down the street
Everything just rhymes and you barely find the time
That girl you see before you is the only girl you want
All the power of the gods just seems to shine from above
Her eyes seem like the only ones meant to see and you look into them deep and your eyes look so green.
Her laugh just makes you tingle and her walk just makes you smile
Everything about her just makes her seem worthwhile.
But you know exactly who you are and you're so close but yet so far
Before you can get to where she is and you just cant find the exact word
as to how you feel but this is so real
Because it is a dagger of the mind that you see when your asleep but it is when your awake that the dagger you can reach.
But how can it be real if it actually seems so far
Even though you can see her being exactly where you are.
Whatever way she looks at you just makes you feel so goofy and how can you compare her to anything that’s loopy.
She walks beside you and you just seem oblivious but when she is nowhere near that everything is obvious.
You try and try but you cant fly and you aint got no game and you have nothing left to say
You just cant hook line and sinker but you just wanna be with her
But you don’t know if she likes you if anything other than a friend
But you know that everything will work itself out in the end.

A Work in Progress

I look in the mirror and cant figure out what I see
Is it the kid I saw two years ago, what about 5, what about 3 months ago
Who is looking back at me
How can one minute you be happy, then your mind becomes a traitor and turns on you
Staring into your own eyes, trying to figure out what you really are
Not knowing where you went wrong, what you did that was right or what you could have changed
Happy one second and then not even able to remember what happiness is the next
Mind being your friend and letting you forget and then being your enemy and reminding you or all your mistakes
Trying to look at yourself and actually be happy with what you see and not wanting to change everything
Maybe change is the answer you think to yourself, but why cant you just be comfortable being who you are?
Life is spinning and spiraling around you and all you want is a moment of happiness where everything you thought was right
To be able to go back to that one moment and change that fatal mistake you wish more than anything you could take back
Knowing that as much as you try that mistake will be in your mind forever and you'll never be able to forget it
Yourself being a work in progress

Rain Soaked Pages

The darkness opened, shining a pervailing light down to the ground. Looking up I see almost a smiling face. I smile and feel happy as the rain disperses. My thoughts belong to myself and no one else. The rain soaked pages of the book dry, giving a distinguished wrinkle to the pages. With every last rain drop, a little bit more of the ink begins to run thru the pages. The rain stops completely and the only drops hitting the pages fall from my hair. I keep on writing, I dont know where I'm going with it but I still go on, letting my emotions join the rain in soaking the pages thru. My pen hits the pages, writes a little but sinks thru the pages, lost within time. Where the pen leads, I never know, but it always seems to work. I write because i feel and I write because it helps me deal. If ever there was a time I needed to figure out what to do, the pen and paper are always where I head to, it doesn't seem to judge, it only listens

Getting life back on track

How do I make it through the day
Why do my feelings get in the way
Where does the time go
I just need to know
Where am I supposed to be
Cuz all I feel is misery

(Chorus)
Im just trying to run
Trying to hide
Trying to let my fears subside
Letting my life pass before my eyes
I dont know where I should go
I need to know right now
You cant relive the time you lost
Got to accept the mistakes you made


I Don't know what I'm trying to say
All I know is I played the game and lost
My past is whats holding me back
Trying to get my life back on track
But I can't

(Chorus)

Someone New?

Thinkin bout you sitting here
When Im with you I have no fear
My heart divides
And I recognize
How life could be so dear
Im staying here to try
To win your heart right now
Dont know what Im doing anyhow
Ive held you close and I dont think I could go back
The fire in my heart just ignites
In the darkness I see you and all is light
Not giving up this fight for you
My voice seems to be in lyrics
Everything seems to have a rhythm
The tapping of my feet and the blinking of your eyes
Just seems to got me hypnotized
You got me in some sort of trance
I know I dont stand any chance
My legs are shaky
And my hands are aching
Because I cant stop moving around
Got me energized, wanting to run downtown
You havent stopped running through my head
Even while Im sleeping in my bed
Your always catching me off guard
I plan on even trying very hard
Dont know if I want to stop thinking about you
not even sure if I actually like you
Just kidding, I do
Its like the stars began to fall in place
And now I can only see your face
Im writing and writing and im trying and trying
But my head is all confuzzled
And trying to get to you is like trying to figure out a puzzle
Ill just be chillin and I'll ponder
And then my mind will start to wander
Then my mind will drift away
And thats all I can really say
But you have been in my mind everyday
Since the moment that I said "Hey I dont know your name."
