Cage Inside

~ another piece of work...yay......

Trapped within my mind

An escape I try to find

These thoughts never rest

Anger, uncertainity, and hate infest

Nothing is ever enough

Tired of being tough

Tear me down asunder

I simply want to surrender

Feelings gushing until I strain

My body stricken with pain

Fears and doubt leave me broken

Only when I have awoken

The power within my soul

Can I ever become whole

I’ll  cast away my cage

Battling through life’s carnage

From within, there is always a war

Because my soul is worth fighting for 

Click!

~ just a little something about the impact Facebook has had on our society.......

Look at me! Look at me! Look how sad I am!

Look at me! Look at me! Like all my corny spam!

Did you see my status? Like it if you care.

Show me that I’m special, on my posts click share

Like me! Like me! Or I will fall into despair

Facebook is so great, let me be your friend

If you don’t accept me, I will hate you to the end

Comment on everything that’s on my Facebook

My profile you must always look

“Like” every single photo that I took

Play all the silly games with me

It will be best times there could ever be

My self-worth depends on your clicks

Reject me and I’ll be ticked

So come look at me quick…….

Leaf and Pine

A lonely leaf from a great oak

Thought his life was a joke

Until he saw in the distance

A pine needle of lovely existence

The way she fluttered in the air

Made the oak leaf always stare

An example of perfection

Putting to shame all of creation

But as the season of fall came

The wind shook the oak leaf's frame

To the cold ground he fell

Now without her view, was in hell

But then by a miracle of fate

His love plummeted at a fast rate

Piercing into the leafs body

Finally together, they die

Selfish

A man without dignity

Craves everyone's pity

Lacks any scrutiny

Never feels guilty

He does what he can

To be the center man

Has no friends but wants fans

Only wears the latest pants

He screams and cries

He'll charm with grievous lies

Plays the fool , spits on the wise

Never achieves cause he never tries

Despite whatever he'll say

He's miserable in his ways

He'll be selfish always

Until the end of his days

Temperance

~  just a a little poem......not that great. 

A man sitting in the dark

Like the dog who does not bark

Always ready for a fight

For he lacks any foresight

Thoughts of hate and anger

Never finding an answer

His sorrow ripping him asunder

To his rage he surrenders

His focus always narrow

A temper sharp as an arrow

His life ravaged by self pity

No peace in any city

So beware the evil man

Who does not have a plan

To deal with his pain

For to others he is a strain 

Fatty

There once was a big cat

Whose girth was incredibly fat

On his butt he always sat

Never catching a bird or rat

He'd eat from his plate of food

Always in a lethargic mood

To everyone was always rude

Lazy, ugly, mean, and crude

Every day he ate and ate

Never dreaming of his fate

Until he was of enormous weight

Died with his face on a plate

Eh, Something about love........

Watching the stars above

I made a wish regarding love

That no matter what life would bring

I would always find the heart to sing

To always be able to carry a tune

And to sadness be immune

Guarding my soul from hate

Yet allowing love to get through

That my eyes may see

The people that care for me

Keeping my heart open

To the love in each moment

The Pup

I saw a puppy walk down the street

Carrying a large piece of meat

Then an eagle snatched his prize

With the pup making sad cries

Then I came over to the pup

Looking down, I picked him up

Offered him some fresh veal

Now he is happy with his meal 

Gray Knight

Onward rode the gray knight

Straight into a furious fight

Clashing blades with the fiercest foes

His claymore inflicting mighty blows

With the strength of hundred men

Slaughters all one thousand and ten

Earns the victory with his strive

All comrades’ spirits revive

As the celebration ended

An invitation was then extended

To him to stay at local inn

Providing rest and refreshing gin

But a cunning beauty did reside

Desiring the bold knight inside

Seduced him with luscious charm

Using lust and pleasure to disarm

Her siren voice cast a spell

Causing his will to jell

Though all he felt was joy

He was just her little toy

By morning when he woke

She had vanished as smoke

Feeling only a loveless pain

Vowed never to love again

Though in combat he grew faster

In manners of love he was no master

His heart was cold and tough

Concerning love he had enough

Never a woman did he court

Sealing himself in reclusive fort

Forever marching to the next war

Feeling pain and suffering forevermore 

Strength

It has been a long time

Since I have written a rhyme

Though the heart still beats

I still suffer many defeats

Ravaged by fear and pain

Having nothing from life to gain

Hopes and dreams just fade

A mask of joy I masquerade

A soul that is broken apart

Can never go back to start

From harsh words that cut deeply

To acts of deceit that shattered me

Treated like a worthless pawn

Playing a sick game until I’m gone

My feelings forced to endure

Lies, cruelty forever more

No! I will never bend

I refuse to face a bitter end

They cannot break my will

Look as I rise still

My heart fights on

With a fire that cannot be withdrawn

Strength and passion my ally

Casting off all fears, I fly 

Emptiness

There was a time I had joy

Long ago when I was a boy

But now only pain resides

Ripping apart my insides

Happiness and love are gone

As I am only life's pawn

My heart beats no more

For hope has left the door

My broken soul lies dead

With the words of love unsaid

Never to reveal the heart

Only to fall apart

I wish this pain would fade

So I could emerge from the shade

But misery bides me here

Engulfing me in fear

The greatest threat to man's soul

Are the doubts that create a hole

An incomplete man reaps sorrow

Swallowing him in shadow
