I am bright and beautiful
I wonder where I will go when I die
I hear the angels calling my name
I see me walking through heavens gates
I want to be successful in life
I am bright and beautiful
I pretend to be a movies star
I feel the lights from the camera shining down on me
I touch the scene of my set as I kneel down to pray
I worry what will become of my life when I graduate
I cry from the thought of my first love
I am bright and beautiful
I understand that sometimes love doesn’t last forever
I say our love should have never ended
I dream of us being together again
I try to move on and forget about it
I hope he understands the strong feelings that still stand
I am bright and beautiful
I am from a home of nagging,
"Don’t do this" and "Don’t do that"
"Why did you do this?" "Why couldn’t
you do that?" "If you do this I might
let you do that". I’m always on lock-down.
I am like an unborn chick
Waiting to hatch.
I have a mother who is cool sometimes.
I use to think she has mood-swings
But now I realize it's just one
BIG unpleasant mood.
And they're not always cool.
I have a brother who just doesn't
Understand that this isn't just
Play land, "I have issues"
Everyday isn't fun and play
So I tell him to just go away.
I guess form all of this I'm from a caring home,
Sweet, loving, and warm home. My family cares
I know they care it's just me with the impression
That they don’t care.

Sitting on a hat
One day I sat on a hat.
I looked up to see a big cat.
The cat then flew.
While tripping over a shoe.
When I pulled him up he was fat.
My Cat
I have a cat name Ted.
Who loves to lie in my bed.
He loves to play on logs.
Why didn’t I get a pet frog?
With a big round head.

It started off a beautiful Sunday
Well then the bad news came as I rushed home
I found out my cousin had passed away
Hearing the news I could not be alone
I just don’t think it was his time to go
Not even a moment a say good bye
So very young with no more time to grow
If I only had a chance to say bye
Well now he can rest peacefully
I just wish for one last moment with him
He was too young to die why cant they see
Why did it have to be him why not them
RIP Mickey B a true soldier
RIP Mickey B a true soldier
I sit alone and think of the love we once had.
Tears began to tremble down my cheek.
Come to think we barely even speak.
When we were together there wasn’t a day that I was sad.
Now whenever I hear your name all of a sudden I get mad.
When I walk the halls at school and see you I become weak.
It makes me want to just fall to my knees and weep.
If we were still together that would make me glad.
Yet all these feelings are still here.
I imagine one day you will come back to me.
I keep telling myself I need to let you go.
We belong together why can’t you see.
Oh what I would give up just to have you near.
The question “why were not together” no one will even know.
If I could turn back the hands of time.
But I can’t I guess this time wasn’t meant to be.
If I could turn back the hands of time you’d still be mine.
I realize I don’t have control over time and that’s fine.
The time was never right I was just too blind to see.
In my mind you left me alone to rot.
I wish we could have stayed together.
In my heart we were meant for each other but I guess not.
Thinking of you gets me fired up like grease when it gets to hot.
Now times seem so rough like bad weather.
No one can see how much I’m hurting inside.
It’s a shame my own friends can’t give me any advice.
To keep myself busy I just get in the car and ride.
If I could I would climb in a shell and just hide.
You broke my heart so many times, what once maybe twice.
If I could just get over the simple fact
You walked out and left for good.
You don’t love me any more so just drop the act.
Hiding all of your true emotions that’s where you use to lack.
If I controlled the time oh I wish I could.
When I first met you
When I first met you I used
To be afraid, afraid that
Falling in love with you
Would hurt me, and it did.
When I first met you I used
To hope, hope that things
Would work out and they didn’t.
When I first met you I used to
Want, want to be with you
For a life time but I wasn’t.
Now that in not with you I
Cry because you hurt me but
Then I stop and think I still
Have my whole life ahead.
So no more tears
No need to cry.
