Broken Glass
Similiar to glass
Tough yet easily damaged
Strong, yet so very weak

This is me
Rarely recognized for anything other than appearance

That is you
Constantly noticed for the beauty within

But what are we?

If combined, what will we be?

Will the people ever see

That there is more to me than they concieve?

If dropped, do we not all brake?
If pushed too far, do we not all shake?
If we want, do we not all take?

I fail to see the difference,
I fail to change the ways.

We are similar to glass.
Tough, yet easily damaged.
Strong, yet so very weak.

Watching life pass you by,
souring,
tumbling
sailing
through an endless diamond sky
Wathcing people leave you there
Walking
Running
Cruising
Leaving no room to spair
Watching clocks spin around
Spinning
Swirling
Twisting
Until theres no longer any sounds
Watching life pass you by
Souring
Tumbling
Flying
Through an endless diamond sky.
This whole new world
Fantastic
Wonderful
Marvelous
Things to see
but when Im way over here
Its crystal clear
That this whole new world is not the place for me...

"Just a thought"
In all the lives
I've lived before,
And all the sleep I've slept,
I've never had a dream
quite like,
The dream that I had dreampt,
I visualized a man of gold,
could not be bought
could not be sold,
A man whos knowledge
I've been told,
Is from a land,
Where words are old.
The voice is something obsolete,
While thought and gesture
You complete
And so in love
I hold him near
And hope to God,
That he will hear.

Afterlife
Life has passed you by
And your in the labyrinth between
They dont know where to put you
Because you have gone to the extreme

You stay there for awhile
Locked in a tight cell
They come to a decision
And I'll tell you it's not hell

Saved by the phone
Dads in the hospital
Moms at home
Sisters at school
So Im here all alone

My best friend is busy
My cousins arent home
My online buddies are gone
So Im here all alone

I talk to myself for awhile
I wish I had a clone
If somebody else were in my position
I wouldnt leave them alone

So Im here by myself
Sitting all alone
The next thing I know
Your talking to me on the phone.

Onward
Into the front door
Down the hall
Up the stairs
Down another hall
In the room
Across the floor
Inside a box
In my closet
On a shelf
Sits a tiny box
Inside the box
Sits a crumpled piece of paper
Across the paper it says "Do Not Read!"
Inside the paper
Sits some words
Repeated: "Do Not Read!"
"SO DON'T!"

Typical Man
The first time I met you...
I thought you were just another guy
I thought you didn't notice me
I later found you were far from shy

The second time I met you...
Things were basically the same
You didn't once talk to me
Yet it seemed you were playing a game

The third time I met you...
I wished you'd talk to me
I wondered deep inside,
Just what you thought of me

The fourth time I met you...
You came to me and talked
I listened quite intently
You asked me to take a walk

The fifth time I met you..
We were walking down the hall
My heart was beating rapidly
You told me you would call

The sixth time I met you...
You asked me on a date
You said tomorrow at 9:30
Although that was pretty late

The seventh time I met you...
You seemed to be a sweet guy
You made me feel comfortable
You made sure I wasn't shy

The eighth time I met you
You seemed to have lost interest
You were sweet talking the next girl
You'd found dating at its simplest

The ninth time I met you...
You tried to apologize
You acted like Mr. Innocent
You acted like you hated my size.

The tenth time I met you...
I wouldn't look you in the eye
You repulsed me to my limit
You were another typical guy.
