I'm a Poet! Did you know it?

Here are some poems that I have written over the years, some old and some new.  I hope you enjoy! I’ll post more later.
*I apologize to those who subscribed to my old MySpace blog, you may have read a few of them before.(though some have been revised)


Butterflies in the belly
Escaping reality, to you I run and hide
A unique comfort, which only you provide
Stuck in our own world that few can see
An imaginary bubble, where we can be free
A place where fun and laughter fill each day
All stress and all worries diminish away

Booty call
Late at night the phone begins to ring
Knowing all you want is just one thing
I answer your calls and invite you in
Anticipating the pleasure that’s about to begin
We both know that we’re a horrible match
But it’s so much fun with out the strings attached
We let passion and pleasure fill the night
Wake in the morning with no expectations in sight
So take your cake and eat it too
Just know that I too am using you

A TOAST TO YOU
Goodbye to my dear sweet friend
I send you off with a toast
You showed me your true colors
When I needed you the most
Enjoy your selfish life
I hope Karma gets you soon
The table is bound to turn
And you’ll sing a different tune
I have plenty of friends
Amazing ones at that
Real friends who stand by me
Through the roughest of combats
I will not miss you
And I’m sure you will not miss me
Already to self absorbed
When I sent out my greatest plea
You are an attention whore
Sorry I needed a little back
Its okay I didn’t get it
Put reality back on track
You were never there
When I needed you the most
Thus the reason I say farewell
And send you with this toast

Building Walls
Going back to the day, for you my legs spread
Different actions would be made, different words would be said
I just never thought we’d continue it night after night
Holding you close began feeling so right
A fear of commitment kept up a brick wall
As days went by pieces began to crumble and fall
I’m not the only one with a wall guarding me
You have your own protecting you, I can see
As my wall comes down and I let more of me show
Conversations thicken and you I get to better know
I saw a kind gentle person, but I judged way to quick
Realizing your way of keeping people out was by being a dick
The wall around you is much stronger than mine
The unfortunate result when pain and fear combine
Regretting the fact that I let you in at all
I’ll continue on rebuilding a much stronger wall

Patience
With a dark stare in your eyes, and a smile that’s bright
So scared to love, so ready to fight
So much anger you are unable to free
Pain deep inside, which few can see
A beauty is in you that radiantly glows
A mystery, which the answer nobody knows
Walking through life, there is more that you need
Unfound fulfillment leaving your soul to bleed
I can tell you care as you show resistance
Taking steps forward while keeping your distance
“Patience is a Virtue” so I’ll step back and be your friend
Patiently waiting on your heart to mend

It’s over
Time keeps passing as we scream and shout
Why kid ourselves…we know it won’t work out.
There is no reason to bicker, no reason to fight.
All of the arguing will not make things all right.
There were good times, but they since have passed.
Just because we were happy once, didn’t mean it would last.
We could try to hold on, but you nor I are that strong.
So let’s go our own ways, neither of us being in the wrong.
You’ll be fine without me, so please set me free.
We can’t make something work, that was never meant to be.
