I Could Have Died



I COULD HAVE DIED
09/11/2011


I’ve always been a survivor, always come back strong,
And ready to take on the next challenge of life, regardless of the obstacles.
I’ve had poor health before, but the last time I was hospitalized,
It was more than just a close call, it was a miracle I survived so well.
Instead of question it, I choose to reflect on it, to analyze it,
To take it a part, and inspect it piece by piece.

Chorus:
I could have died,
But I had strength enough to come up again,
And show the world what I was made of.
I could have died,
But, I re-surfaced after drowning for so many hours,
And, I’m ready to get back to what’s important in life.

I remember that morning I opened my eyes for the second time,
And that lady was talking to me, and asking me to drink some juice,
I thought I was dreaming the entire thing,
I didn’t really believe a word she was saying.
But, as time passed over the month of July,
I slowly recovered, hung in there, and eventually
I had found something meaningful to boast about: Life.
I was lucky, and proud to be alive,
And so my new motto became:
That I always managed to survive!

Report Chorus

When I look back at that period now,
And I see how I am today,
I can see that I have improved dramatically,
Not just physically, but mentally as well.
Yes, I could have died, but, I escaped death
And, I found the strength to survive.
This should serve as a lesson to everyone:
That you can survive anything, Once you believe in yourself!

Feeling So Pleasant



I’m Feeling So Pleasant
06/20/2011

I was feeling so monotone,
So I headed to Pleasant Grove.
I quickly lost my sense of direction
And told myself I was lost.
As the story goes, I settled nearby
And found myself a job.
If it weren’t for my persistence,
And desire to not give up,
I wouldn’t have gotten this far.

Pre-Chorus:
And I feel no guilt
For what I did to you.
You don’t deserve my love
You will only get what you earned.

Chorus:
I found a way to
Make it work without you.
No more co-dependency,
No more loans,
No more tension
From being isolated.
I have re-invented myself.


I spent so much time
Trying to satisfy you.
I told you I’ll find a job any day now,
Just one more fucking day…
I gave into your demands,
I put your needs ahead of my own.
And that’s just not the way
Its supposed to be.
I was born to take care of me and only me.

Pre-Chorus
Chorus (x2)

Someday soon, we will all just laugh at this time period,
The time when I couldn’t find a job,
And was struggling to survive.
Life has its ups and down,
And we all have our screw-ups,
But, in the end,
We are all just equally as human.

Destined



Destined
12/29/2011
This is a good one I posted on facebook
 awhile ago, but it deserves another visit. :)

I believe it was destiny.

Intro:
Born on the fourth of July,
I was destined to be independent.
Wherever I may go,
I know, I’ll be strong all the time…
Doubted, and deflated,
I am destined to rise again,
While clearing away the rubble,
I race towards my goal of conquest!

Society today… Kind of drives me up a wall…
People whine and whine and whine about not having friends,
But make no effort to make the move,
To make the change in someone’s life…
They just sit on their ass
And wait for Mr. Right to come along…

There’s always been a problem,
With the way society has been.
We are always contradicting our every word,
Every emotion, and every feeling.
If it were up to me, I’d influence the world
To be more pro-active , and less lazy,
In their approach to life…

Yes, I believe this is destiny…

Repeat Intro…

Finding work the last few years,
Has been insanely ridiculous,
At least where I live.
You fill out a dozen applications on-line,
And, nobody even notices your resume…
Til’ months and months later.

The job goes to someone who knows less than you do,
You bite, you scream, and you wrip your hair out,
Cause this world today just doesn’t seem fair.
If it were up to me, I’d change the way job recruitment is ran,
And make it easier for potential candidates to pay their rent,
Buy their food, and get a long in life,
Without allowing the overwhelming stress to pile up!

This is destiny…

Repeat Intro.

Sometimes, I wonder what our ancestors think about our current civilization.
Do they get outraged, and throw things like we do?
Do they try to correct us when they see us make a mistake?
Or Do They simply just laugh at us all???

I believe I was destined!

Crushed



Crushed!
11/07/2011

Intro/Chorus:
You left me devastated,
My arms up in the air,
Claiming it was all a lie.
You left me questioning,
How could such a great man
Die so fast?
And with no warning?
You left me crying,
The tears just kept coming out,
Cause there was no other way to release the pain.
You left me crushed,
I have no one else I could turn to now,
Now that you have left me…

Your life was taken so suddenly,
Without warning a car slammed behind you.
You were crushed, along with the car,
Luckily, it was a quick death you experienced.
The two girls in the car both survived,
With some serious medical attention,
However, the era of Mark and Kenny evaporated,
In a split second…

Repeat Intro

The following week the funeral was held,
And the mood was so somber,
With the rain coming lightly down,
Our hearts felt so empty.
We had nothing to say at the funeral,
A few of us could cry,
But most of us were silent,
And just stared into the darkness
That had taken over our world.

Chorus (#2):
You left us devastated,
Our arms up in the air,
Claiming it’s not fair, it’s not fair…
You left us asking questions,
How could he die without warning?
You left a vacancy in this world
And, we now had no one to entertain us.
You left us all crushed with grief
And we were looking for something…anything,
That could tell us why, why…
Did you have to go?

Baby, Baby Baby…
You left me devastated …
I have accepted your passing,
But I’ll never get over it.
I’ll never get the sound of your laughter
Out of my head,
There is no denying
That you have left me crushed.

Church Boy



Church Boy
02-14-2012
This is a funny poem
about a straight boy lol.

You go to church every Sunday,
And they all look at you with envy.
Little do they know,
That you’re a selfish prick.

Ohh Church Boy,
The moment I saw that face of yours,
I admit I kind of fell in love.
Despite the fact you were moody,
Despite the fact that you stabbed
People behind their backs.

There’s only one man who keeps me up at night,
There’s only one man who feels me with such delight.
I often wonder if you secretly feel the same,
And if right now, you’re moaning my name…
Um, probably not…

You go to church every Sunday,
Family and friends keep introducing you to girls,
You talk to them, but never make a move,
And then make fun of them behind closed doors,
Just like you do with everyone else.
But, you manage to stay single,
And people are starting to wonder about you…
Myself included.

Ohh Church Boy,
Could you be gay? Gay? Gay? Gay?
Could I be the one
That could complete your life?
These are things I wonder to myself,
And things I will never know for sure,
Because I’m so reserved on the surface.

There’s only one man that makes me blush,
There’s only one man I have a crush on…
It’s the church boy that has invaded my fantasies
With his wicked and wild personality.

How could I resist the most perfect lips,
The most cocky attitude,
And the biggest, hottest butt I’ve ever seen?
Yes, I know you talk shit behind my back,
You told them all I was a freak,
But when we get to the bedroom…
I’ll show you what us freaks are all about. J
