Don't tell me what you want me to be
Don't tell me who you wish I was
Take me for what I am
cause you is all I want
At the end of the day I'm left with myself
All the decisions one can only make himself
Let the cover show what's on the inside
And let everyone else passively glide
My acts determine me and so should my voice
Keep the cart rolling and let variety be a choice
to shadow the majority puts on its hood
Only increases the selfishness of the good
The system carries its kinks and flaws
A broken land with a set of laws
Draw your own line and let the colors mix
A new breed of dawn. The most truthful. No tricks.
Distance of time is long, a narrow path is set
the one you choose my guidance calls to sing the silhouette
but i am just one man, another breathe of art.
simplified by one stand and never torn apart.
look only deep inside me and see what lies within.
run away from the darkness just hit me on the chin.
the light i bring enlightens maybe even shows
the cracks. describe to you the method to get you on the track
can only throw you so far, the range is stretched so thin
brought up like my one child, too live as my own kin
now walk on your two feet and show me what you done
your first mistake will show you that life has just begun
Increase the play, each day and day
Talk of truth, remain in youth
Live it up to tip the cup
Take my eyes, forget the lies
Pull in the world and call it your own
Follow the wind, just amp the tone
Release the dogs and give em hell
Breathe in the fog, and brake the shell
Play the game you know so well
Spread the great and bury the bad
Be yourself and diminish the mad
At each end you will see
who you are and what you'll be
Wear my shoes, myself arise
Corrupt the way, your own demise
Walk my road, I pave a path
Choose the mode, forget the math
Break the code, and feel the wrath
Define yourself for who you are
Watch your acts,
You fill my day with the light of the sky
Your touch brings me warmth, no feeling of time
The beauty you hold on the inside and out
Will never bring me the slightest doubt,
that happiness I can trade, for no amount
The moments we have, each one I hold true
The best dreams at night, start and end with you
You're the one that stands out from the rest
Your smile, your eye's, makes the beat in my chest
When I see you go, were never far apart
You'll always be with me, always deep in my heart
I point in fear, the time is near
The bells have rung, my mind has sprung
Each day the same, my heart remain
A bitter sweet, cannot complete
Reach for the arm, to not alarm
A simple embrace, to lighten a face
Work for the one, who can become
The life you need, or simplistic greed
The mind is set, the heart has met
The web is wove, turn off the stove
Look for the eyes, pull on the ties
Dropped in the sky, now watch it fly
Riggidy rock the clickidy clock
Live the dream, release the steam
Enhance yourself, befriend your wealth
Value the friend, with you too the end
Delete the bad, diminish the sad
Increase the day, lessen the fray
Reach out, forget doubt
Light the path, forget the math
Your day is here, goodbye to fear
Torn apart, I'm bitter smart
Strike two in a game, lost all the fame
Heaven and hell, neither yells
Each eye blind, even my mind
Throbbing heat, my own defeat
One string left, give love a rest
In the end I tend to lend
A life to mend, which I pretend
A line in time, I cannot find
Another rhyme, for my soul to bind.
Approached in the night by a flash of a light
My wall starts to assemble to cover the tremble
Fear of a new path, new Hope or gods wrath.
Words spoke true to relate to you
A connection or bond for me to respond.
The teachings of man. Reach out for my hand.
His power is great. A world without hate.
Belief in one. Stronger than none.
Open your eyes. Reach for the skies.
Think once and stay strong. Life doesn't last long.
Stampede hits the luminescent ground
Eyeless material with not a favor to ask
Give in and not take. True thankfulness.
Never to be heard of, but keeps the selfless traits in order to help others.
The true hero with nothing to gain, but the own gracefulness to live with a life filled corpse.
Media cant reach the top branch for its legs will not grow.
Status quo will remain with the rest.
Join in with the majority or speak out with the minority.
Both have its negatives so feel free to pick your poison.
Decisiveness in which many lack is the one trait that brings you over the top.
Watch your step for where you have reached there
Another rock breaks from the aging soil.
Evolution has taken it course to turn around and bite off its own end.
Is the world ready for us or are we ready for the world? Steps start with one person.
Risk comes into play, but that's life.
The forest is silent and the trees lean both ways only to be cut down if needed by others.
No hate. No happiness. Mindless minions contaminating a bigger picture,
put in place by the unknown. Don't let a line construe a meaning of right and wrong.
White lie to make a better tomorrow, but if never known the truth than what makes it false.

I can't tell what I'm feeling now
It's a little like the love I remember
But it's not the same
It feels empty
It feels like a lie
I know it can change
If we really want it to
I want it to
I want it back
I remember
I remember the way it used to feel
Oh, hello again.
I've been been waiting for our paths to cross.
How irresistible the effect you have on me.
For the sake of everyone around us,
Let's play coi.
That this meeting is purely a coincidence.
Oh how I've wanted to have you again.
To devour you,
To savor your essence.
How you stay on my lips,
The tingle in my being.
My pupils dialate,
Goose bumps appear,
And a pleasant shiver runs down my spine.
Oh how I want to indulge in your sinful embrace.
For the sake of all, let's play coi.
Hello again Special Dark Chocolate.
I am...
Tall.
A tomboy.
A procrastinator.
Lazy.
Usually the oldest person, in a group.
Usually the tallest person, also.
Myself around people I know.
Quiet around people I dont know.
Loud, and annoying.
But quiet, and calm.
Paranoid, and somewhat meek.
I have...
Dark blonde hair,
and overly long bangs.
Dark green eyes.
I have a small amount of freckles left.
I have tan skin, even though Im hardly in the sun.
A bi-polar personality, like my mother.
A recovering druggy/alcoholic Mother.
A father whos never been there,
and I doubt will ever be there.
Trying to buy back my love.
I live with my grandparents, my mother lives
Today I wanted to run
To be anywhere near you
Anything to avoid the empty spaces between my fingers
To witness the miracle of your smile
To rejoice in the way it lights up every room.
Today I wanted to run
But not just anywhere
I wanted to run into your arms
To feel the distance between us disappear
To see you
Touch you
Kiss you
That in and of itself is a miracle.
Today all I wanted was you
To lose the meaning of time and space
To search for galaxies in every fleck of color in your eyes
To get lost in the sound of your heart beating
To remain forever in awe of you.
All I wanted was you.
Nothing
By Ian Branning
When time slows down
And the clock sounds loudly
I look outside into the blue sky
And the color reminds me of you.
When time speeds up and
The hands of the clock blurs through
I take a moment to myself
As my thoughts drift to your face.
When the world passes me by,
Randomly, my face becomes saddened
Because I thought of you,
And you weren't here.
When the world pushes me around,
Randomly, I smile,
Because I thought of you,
And thought of how lucky I was to have you.
So out of nothing
An idea forms,
your face, smile, hair, eyes, and lips,
And I think of you yet again,
from nothing.

My Snow And Aurora
My Snow And Aurora
I smiled and clung to him, my highschool sweetheart, always there for me; Always will be. He wouldn't hurt me, or our children that we would have one day. I love him so much, I just know we'll be together forever! He even calls me his 'Sleeping Beauty', since almost every time he visits me, I'm asleep on my couch.
We got married after having two beautiful children, two girls.
Snow and Aurora, named after the two princesses I reminded him of.
He quit his job, so I had to work. My daughters were dropped off at daycare. I for some reason no longer trusted him.
He hit me again, I fell back and held my cheek

If I keep

I don't even

Oh look, I
broke the pattern
I'll submit this
anyway.
sometimes you've got to hide away from everything in the world
and sometimes you get so confused when you don't really know what anything's about anyway
and sometimes all you do is hurt the ones you love so desperately
and i know that's all i do.
i take people's hearts and i mash them up.
so completely desecrated
that they can never be whole again
i will never be anything enough for you
and i guess i never plan to be
not because i don't love you
no, honey it's far from that
it's because i know that i 'd just rip your heart out
every moment of every day
and make you stare at it while
i take little pieces out
one at a time
i don
Tick Tock Goes The Heart's Alarm Clock
By Me Me Me Me Me
Love never waits for poorly spent moments
It is a rush in bright obsidian
Though it is dazzled in golden paint adornments
It stunts the mouth of charming idioms
Flowers fail to comprehend its taught thorns
Silk falls baffled at its gently soft wisdom
Sparkling vines hide its forgotten thorns
Welcomes thought into its firey kingdom
Jousts fall short of its stinging consequence
Kind letters burned not as badly at heart
It has a silly and pricey expense
One that has not an end to even start
Tiresome are the rhymes and ideas
The heart, so unsure, soon hope to free us.
