Get Over It

Short Poem:

It's an un-climbable ladder,

Get over it,

It's not that simple,

I've been climbing this impossible mountain called depression,

Get over it,

I can't get over it

Let's see you try to swim with an anchor tied to your chest,

Don't tell me to get over it,

I've tried...

City of Thieves

City of Thieves (link)

This is a song about high school and life in general.

I had a tough time in school, not academically but socially.

This song is for those who were outcasted and had their dreams stolen by those who thought they were better than everyone else. High school ends and things do get better. Just ask for help.

Thou Art Cruel

Sometimes people don't like your work OR they ask you for something and you do it, then they don't like it... This is what runs through my mind every time - not that I would say that to them because that is unprofessional and inappropriate in the "adult world" but we all know everyone is thinking this when it happens... Anyway, I then proceed to suck it up and start over (or change whatever they didn't like). Ah art - thou art cruel.

I Love You

Slam Poetry:

As a child all we want to hear are the words "I love you",
And it isn't an "I love you" like I love cookies kind of love you,
It's and "I love you" with the meaning I would go to the moon and back just for you,
But somewhere along the way,
Somewhere in the generations of people in this world the "I love you"'s became worthless,
The became the rocks we threw in rivers that sank to the bottom,
We took a phrase that meant so much and turned it into nothing...

We all know,
Kids grow up,
The "I love you"'s become less and change in meaning,
For me they died...

The "I love you"'s were no longer an ocean of feelings,
They became the holes I fell into never to be heard from again,
Somewhere along the line,
"I love you" turned into an obligation,
"I love you" became a prison I could not escape,
I was stuck in something I couldn't get out of,
But family is blood,
And you can't change that...

Because of this,
I can no longer believe the words "I love you" without fear of it not being true,
To those who wrecked my love,
I can no longer look them in the eyes...

I used to treasure the words "I love you",
Now I hold onto them,
Hoping one day that someone will say "I love you" and really mean it...

Funny how such a simple phrase can cause so much destruction...

 A while ago I started some "editing" on Instagram for fun - I was with some basic app I found in the app store and well they turned out pretty good. Here are a few of them.
