Cross my heart
‘Til I die
Look of hatred
In your eye
Kept my word
As long as I could
Left it in that spot
Where you stood
Memories of it
Will always remain
Nothing there
Will be the same
Words
Ode to Poetry
February 14th, 2005
Carefree rhyming as you go
Changing words to and fro
Poetry is what I do best
Need help and I’ll be your guest
No need to even rhyme
Some think it’s a waste of time
I’m always writing away
A poem almost every day
Writing out the words to your heart
Poetry is such a wonderful art
The Actual Ugly Truth
June 11th, 2025
I’m finally opening my eyes
And letting myself embrace the validity
I filled my head with excuses you’d never give
You’ve probably laughed at my stupidity
I gave you endless patience
That you had never earned
And I abandoned all the things
That I knew I really deserved
Someone who actually wanted me
Wouldn’t leave me in this confusion
And I can’t even blame you
When I’m the one who built the illusion
You told me time and time again
Through your actions and your words
You’re “just not that interested”
I’m not what you’re moving towards
So I’m sorry I never listened
And I’m sorry for being clueless
But I need to apologize to myself
For waiting for you to choose this
Personal Note: Off subject, but I just wanted to share a small moment for my brother TJ, who passed away on this day four years ago (12/15/2021). I hope you’re resting in peace.
