Rhymes :)

This is a story that I am making up as I sit here.
It rhymes.

One day Teo decides to go on a trip
He meets a girl who had a ring in her lip
That girls name was Agnith, and she liked rock
She wore black skinny jeans and one red sock
Teo fell in love, and his heart soared high
Life was good, until she said goodbye
She didn't feel the same, and left with haste
She claimed she had to feed her cat, not a moment to waste!
Teo was in agony and fell to his knees.
Please don't leave me! I'm begging you, PLEASE!
But Agnith could care less and ran out the door
Teo cried and cried and cried some more
Finally, after 13 days
He left his bed and headed for the city of Caise
He went to Carlos O'Kelley's for a bite
And discovered that his wallet was quite tight
He sprinted out the back and into the street
He couldn't get caught, the police he did not want to meet.
He was a wanted man, needless to say
And he is to this day
So if you see a man named Teo, strutting along
Greet him & smile, and tackle him to the ground

Give Me Your Eyes

"Give me your eyes for just one second
Give me your eyes so I can see
Everything that I keep missin
Give me your love for humanity.
Give me your arms for the broken-hearted
The ones that are far beyone my reach.
Give me your heart for the ones forgotten.
Give me your eyes so I can see." Give Me Your Eyes-Brandon Heath

The view is blurry through my eyes
My horizons stretch so much shorter than yours
I see what I want to see
The poverty & hunger are miles away
Not a concern of mine.
I know I'm better off than most
And I'm grateful at times
But it's not my duty
It's too much stress
I have a life of my own.

I need a revelation
An attitude change
It's about time I saw people through your eyes
It's time to put judgement aside
And throw contempt out the window
To the world I am just one person
But to one person, I could be the world

No More, No Less

Oh how fun you may think this is
A game with a start and an end
With playing pieces and obstacles
But your goal is to win
Whatever the cost, you never stop playing
But I wish you would
Because in this game, you're trying to beat me
Why don't you just quit, like you know you should
The object is to manipulate
Use me for your own good
It's turned you into a monster
Doing things you never knew you could
It started off with innocent and fun
We'd played this game before, before I knew your rule
You put on a show, and made it light-hearted
This turned into cheating & using me as a tool
Did you think I wouldn't notice
That I was naive and dumb
I've got news for you buddy
I'm through with you, I've got better times to come
Good luck trying to hook another victim
I will no longer waste my time trying to impress
You acted different when you were with me
I've always been myself, no more no less

Learn to LIVE

Learn to live, and learn to love.
When you think you've finally figured it out, just look above.
As long as you don't give up, hope won't run out.
Be certain when the world is in doubt.
Question everything you hear.
For deceit is always near.
A peaceful world is only in our dreams
For love & happiness flew out the wind, it seems
There's fake love, alright, it's everwhere you look
But that feeling of assurance, someone has took
How beautiful the world was, so many years since
We've welcomed wrong, shoved away right & blotted out the footprints
I have to be the change I want to see
For peace begins with me

Light at the End of the Tunnel

Times are tough, everyone knows it. Some people are becoming more & more aware of what htey're spending, while some people could care less. Those people are the problem. but they only way we can get out this dreadful situation is by hoping. There's a light at the end of the tunnel! In every tough situation, it's the same way. You could be at the very beginning of the tunnel, the worst has just happened, and you're feeling as hopeless as a bug stuck on a spiderweb. But you have to keep your chin up, there's others counting on you. So you press forward. You eventually come to mid-tunnel, and realize you're halfway there! Whatever you're going through, no matter how bad it is, someone else has already experienced it. After what seems like forever, you see the light. The end is near. You step out into the brilliant, shining light. It couldn't have come at a better time.

Rollercoaster

Life is like a roller coaster. It has its ups and downs, but you never know when they're gonna be. One minute you can be in such high spirits and feeling like you can do anything. Then the next minute, it's like everyone's mad at you and you've let everyone down. And somehow the negative always squashes the positive. You try to make amends, but sometimes the damage is so deep, there's no way for it to heal, except in time. Trust has been broken. A lamp can break, and you can glue it back together. A string can break, and you can tie it back together. But trust is something that's earned, and when it's broken....it may never be fixed. Sure, those people may forgive you and move on. But every promise you make from then on, they think, "Is she gonna follow through this time?" in the back of their minds. You can only hope that those people you've wronged can find it in themselves to let it go.

Redo

If you given the chance to do one thing over again, what would you do? You could erase any mistake you've ever made. No one would remember, it would be as if it had never happened. Ooooh :) This is gonna be good. I could erase that time someone stepped on my toe nail and it popped off....or I could erase that time I hit my brother in the knee with a shovel.....or erase the time I flipped the four wheeler. Jackpot! Hmmm, but which to choose? So many mistakes....

Wait!

What if that guy had never stepped on my toe nail? Maybe something even worse would have happened. Maybe seconds later, a wild boar would have jumped off the stage and bit it off? Hey, it's happened before. What if I hadn't hit my brother in the knee with a shovel? He would have completely ruined my snow fort. Although it may not seem like it, I think I made the right decision. What if I hadn't flipped the four wheeler? There could have been a badger or something that ran out in front of me, and I coulda hit that and went flying!

I think I'll just stick to making mistakes. It's what I do best :)
