To Mom and Dad

When we were young, MOM and DAD,
We remember saying that we would never leave your side,
Now we have grown and see the love you two share.
We now realize that’s the way life is.
We have learned so much from you two,
We pleasure every moment we are with you.
God gave us a blessing,
For having two loving parents as great and loving as you.
You two are great and we are so proud on your 23rd year together!
We love you both so much,
And we hope for so many years for you two together.;
For the parents, we so dearly love.

A Toast For Forever

You're the one I can't live without

This fact is true, I have no doubt

I love the way you smile at me

I love the way together we're free

You may be strange and slightly loony

But all this means nothing to me

Because you are who you are

And I can see your beauty

Inside and out

Which is what threw me

When everyday I see you

Till then I cannot wait

To know what we will go through

Are in the hands of fate

The first time that I saw you

I knew I must steal your heart

I hope that it's mine for ever

And that we never do part

You are the one I love the most

And to this here fact I propose a toast;

May we grow old and still have fun

Because I love you and my heart you've won

Lost

Days to come,
don't seem much better then today,
But I'll have to wait and see,
Where there is a will, there is a way,
I want so badly to succeed,
but don't know where to even start,
which path do I chose?
With which dreams do I have to part?
Who knows what tomorrow holds,
let alone where I head this day,
Half of my life has left and already gone,
It's late and I need sleep, dreams to lead me astray,
Who knows which way to go?,
And if those dreams have already left and gone,
sometimes lying here in the darkness,
wondering if it all went wrong, I patiently wait for the dawn,
My future is so unclear,
Even now as I still continue to dream on,
I guess that's what life is about,
pressing on loving, growing, learning right from wrong,
It may all end tomorrow,
Or I could live for many, many years to come, possibly forever,
But what fun would that be?
Forever doesn't always mean for better,
I am but one,
one heart, one mind, one body, one soul,
I guess I should enjoy this life for what it is and where it takes me,
Just confused sometimes on what this life is for, and what's my role

Heavy Metal

The drumming is hot and the guitar riffs are cold
 This type of music was only meant for the bold
 Banging your head until it feels bad
 The law of metal soldiers in iron clad
 Dark knights rides there cold metal steeds
 Playing every song as they please
 The war between music they shall settle
 The warriors in the army of heavy metal
 Listening to songs that will blow your mind
 Loving the music of the heavy metal kind
 Metal kings from every corner of the land
 Calling their metal armies to do as they command
 Doing what they do until they can't take anymore
 Playing heavy metal until their ears are sore
 Come metal soldiers to where you all belong
 To the place where the music makes you strong
 Into mosh pits you go like a maniac
 It isn't for the weak if they can't hack
 Go mad go insane and thrash around
 Don't be afraid the be knocked to the ground
 Metal gods play their heavy metal for you
 So don't quit rocking till they're through

Best of Friends

I still remember the first day we met
We were too shy to say much at all
It's funny to think back to that time
Because now we're having a ball!
They say that true friendship is rare
An adage that I believe to be true
Genuine friendship is something that I cherish
I am so lucky to have met you.
Our bond is extremely special
It is unique in it's own way
We have something irreplaceable
I love you more and more each day.
We've been through so much together
In so little time we've shared
I will never forget all the moments
that you've shown me how much you cared.
Friends are forever
Especially the bond that you and I possess
I love your fun-filled personality
Somehow you never fail to impress.
You are always there for me
When my spirits need a little lift
I cannot thank you enough for that
You are truly an extraordinary gift.
You are everything to me and more
I could never express that enough
Life is such a treacherous journey, and
Without you it would be even more tough.
Our story will continue to grow
With each passing day
Because I trust that with you by my side
Everything will always be Okay.
You are so dear to me
You know we'll be friends until the end
I will always be there for you, and
You will always (and forever) be my best friend, nay
You will always be my brother.

Finding Love

When we must face the world alone
 It seems a lonely place.
 If we've no one to share it with,
 We cannot see its grace.
 We're lost upon an empty sea
 Adrift within the storm.
 A shadow of our former selves
 Without substance or form.
 And yet, we strive to carry on,
 To see the sun once more.
 We place our hearts upon the block,
 As we have done before.
 But often we will move too fast,
 Or try to skip ahead.
 If one but glances through a book,
 He can't know what he's read.
 Each story cultivates a path,
 From beginning to end.
 It's a trail true love must follow,
 The way that it was penned.
 If you attempt to circumvent
 The courtship at the start,
 Your romance will become a fling,
 Which leads to broken hearts.
 For who could ever trust someone
 Who gives themselves so swift,
 And shares with one they hardly know
 Such an intimate gift.
 Happy endings are rarely found,
 In tales that start this way.
 Such passion sometimes feels like love,
 But passion fades away.
 And if no love can then be found,
 You'll be alone again.
 Adrift upon that empty sea,
 Where you have often been.
 For if your offered love is free,
 And it need not be earned,
 What merit do you think it has,
 When it is not returned?
 Love's worth is measured by the work
 Required to make it grow.
 But when you give that love away,
 Its value is brought low.
 So if you seek this treasured prize,
 Here's what you'll have to do.
 The love you offer someone else
 Must mean something to you.

No One Likes Scars

Bashful heeding
broken antique hearts
I've held the ache
for far too long...
Damn you,
tainted stars
you've slain me
you bled me sober,
thirsty
chilled to the bone
with anger,
and all that is left behind, are scars
