Drifting

Take me

Make me your own

Touch me

Send chills through my every bone

Hold me

Lock me tight in your arms

Hypnotize me

Seduce me with your charms

Teach me

The best way to live

Carry me

Across the river of pleasure you plan to give

Kiss me

Like the angel and devil you are

Roll my body around

Like fast, passing cars

Control me

Dip me under your heavy steam

Love me

Forever and always

Until I’m drifting into your dreams

Interrogation Room

How can you look at someone

And be disgusted

Because they’re different

How can you make laws

That forbid someone’s love for another

Because you don’t know how to cope with

Your flawed system

How can you say

That “it’s for the good of the economy”

When you only help the ones

Who already know how to help themselves

Why would you repeat bloodstained history

For the sake of being greedy

Why is your religion

Superior to everyone else’s

Yes, you’re the government

But you don’t own the babies inside women

What right do you have to abuse your power

And trample every blooming, protesting flower

You’re hosting quite the party

Must be such a sadistic delight

To sip your secret agenda tea

And chat conservatively

What makes you think

That you can ignore the Constitution

And only cite it

When it sends you its best wishes

We the people

Have the responsibility

Of reminding you of it

Of your task to respect interests

That keep our world alive

We the people

Need to take the “I” out of divided

And work together to be united

Underneath

Underneath her skin

Is a skeleton

That would fit perfectly

Under his

Underneath her smile

Is a girl

Struggling to hold on

Hold onto a youthful glow

That follows him like the plague

Behind her eyes

There are tears that shine

Until she can look at him and think

”He’s mine”

Underneath her brain

There is a beautiful mind

That smoothly swirls thoughts about life

Like a three-dimensional shrine

Underneath her clothes

Are blunt insecurities

Will she ever be good enough for him?

Underneath her heart

Is a fragile, butterfly part

That’s been beating for him

From the start

Something Is Better Than Nothing 

Roses are sometimes red

Violets are  purple, not blue

When will you get it through your head

That I love you 

Never stopped

Still do

There was that romantic spark of genius

Rushing through my mind

The first time I saw you

The first time…

I dream of it taking place with you

Lions and tigers roar

I’d travel any amount of miles

Because what I feel for you comes from my heart’s core

You make me want to be a flower child

And get high off your smile

The human heart is actually pink

A gambler’s facial expression is stale

You’re a random intellectual who makes everyone think

When I’m around you, my eyes light up

Like a cruise getting ready to set sail… or sink

Your body is a bedroom

Adorned with comfort and spontaneity

Your personality is like a witch riding her broom

Maliciously sweet

Yet, drizzled in hot fudge and golden honey

Attempting to figure you out

Is like a toddler playing with a nuclear bomb

You make me want to throw a tantrum

Cry and shout

Might as well be a website called AngryLovesickTeenGirl.com

Pineapples are yellow

Prairie grass is green

We are friends and can be close so…

I guess something is better than nothing

But you’re single now

I’m still into you

Let’s be closer 

It

Do it

Or don’t

When the going gets tough

We tend to say “screw it”

”Fuck it”

But we shouldn’t just give up

Improvement of the soul is never done

Wake up

Do something about the environment

Get up

And talk to the ones you love

Shape up

Don’t be a jerk

Square up

Be strong and face the world

Kiss up

Don’t try that too much

Stand up

Be proud of what you believe in

Wise up

And realize that nobody always wins

That’s only in your head

At all times, try your best

But never allow the scheming serpents putting you down

To be yourself
