Music

The mumble

Jumble

Of crazy notes

The clicks

And the pizz

The ever present beat

The constant blares

The constant blurts

With an occasional wrong note

The flick of the wrist

A change in speed

The chirp 

The cheep

And chatter between songs

The screeches

The squeals

Then the final plunk

Marking the end of the song

I'm me and won't change

Green eyes, blue eyes, brown eyes too

I'm so much better looking than you

You may call me conceited

But I've not been special treated

I've got my own sense of style

And hypnotize you with my smile

You may not take me serious

But Hun, I've had way more experience

I'm sort of a dork

Since I eat salad with a spork

I'm usually in a good mood

But if I'm not, your screwed

I'm silly, I'm kooky

I'm slightly spooky

I'm me and won't change

Because I like being a little strange

If you really want to, you can judge

But if you try and change me, I won't budge

It doesn't feel like Christmas

It's doesn't feel like Christmas
Yet it only 2 days away
It's not because I'm a Grinch
I'm more of a Cindy Lou Who


The year has been tough
Some relationships made and others torn
It's like taking 2 steps forward and 1 step back
Taking a long time to reach the goal


It may be because there are no little kids
Excited for Old Saint Nick
Or even though it's snowing,
There simply isn't magic in the air
There haven't been any carolers
But people have shown that they care


But it is Christmas
I know that from my calender
But it still hasn't settled in my heart or mind
I just hope these things change before it's actually Christmas time

The "D" word

The "D" word is an ugly word
And it tears families apart
It makes many people shed tears
As they watch loved ones depart

The "D" word is a grown up word
That only grown ups can make the choice
It can be among peoples biggest fears
It can happen with out you having a voice

The "D" word is a changing word
It makes adults act like little kids
And kids act like mother and father dear
It comes to life when you seal the boxes lids

The "D" word is not a swear word
But it still does some damage
It can be quick or happen over years
The "D" word is "Divorce" and with it, all its garbage

Yes Indeed You Do

Why o why
Do you insist 
On confusing me so
I know you may not try to be
But yes indeed you do


Why o why
Must you be just great 
And make me sigh so
I know it's not your intentions
But yes indeed you do


Why o why 
Am I a falling for you
Because you're just sweet so
But every time I fall for you it only breaks me more
I know you may not understand
But yes indeed I do

Is It Really That Hard

Is it really that hard to choose
To choose your answer to a yes or no question
There is no in-between or other options
Just a simple yes or no will do

Is it really that hard to say no?
Just one syllable
It makes that yes feel more worthy
It's one of the first things we learn
The choice and power of no

But to all the yes's
It's always a yes
No doubt about it
But sometimes I wish you had the courage
To just for once, so no

If I were to name

If I were to name a  new type of snake
I'd choose a lengthy name
A name to fit their strength
If I were to name a snake,
I'd name it Booishkabishkabob

If I were to name a new type of butterfly
I'd choose a simple name
A name to show their swiftness
If I were to name a butterfly
I'd name it a Flutter-n-wish

But if given the chance to name a child
I'd choose something sweet
A name to show my love
If I were to name a child
I'd name it...

I have a friend

to Hailey

I have a friend
She can be quite strange,
But together we are completely deranged
We fought with bears and messed with Sasquatch
We do a lot together, except maybe bird watch
We tell each other secrets and keep them locked up safe
In Sunday school, we tend to misbehave
Shes an friend,artist and a poet
And she's not afraid to let everyone know it
She's a super duper friend
It's friendships like these that simply shouldn't end

No Regrets

Don't try in guilt me
Into doing something I've already decided I want
Or don't want
You say I'll regret it,
But I highly doubt that I will
You caused me too much hurt and too much pain
For me to include you more into my life
This is my story
I've got the pen ready in my hand
And I plan on writing it without you in it

You've Been There

You've been there for me
By my side
Through turmoil and happy times
You know my sorrows and my pains,
But you still accept me in all ways
You understand why I'm happy or why I'm not,
But you still like me even when I'm being a snot
You change my raining clouds to sunshine rays
Just by asking how was my day
You know me inside out
And wouldn't change me without a doubt
