JUMP 11/12/12


Feelings that aren't pleasant,
Will eat you alive.
When you have to hold it all back.
Keep it all inside.
It's bound to come out whether you like it or not.
It's explosive.
It's a fight you should have never fought.
It feel repulsive.
One moment has the capability of ruining your whole lives.
If you don't stop to think.
Maybe even think twice.
When you have children or give you heart away,
It's no longer just your life.
Just about you.
Putting them through the ringer.
Through and through.
It's not fair.
It's not right.
This isn't the way to a happy life.
To have a dream.
A family.
A wife.
Everything you think you know is completely wrong.
But it's the only thing you know.
What you've thought was the way all along.
To love is to respect,
Is to appreciate, is to hold sacred.
When you start taking things for granted,
It all starts fading.
What you want.
What you fight for everyday.
All the times you say to yourself,
It's all just gonna be ok.
But it doesn't work that way.
In order to achieve out of life what you deserve,
First you must serve.
Put in and drive that extra mile.
Do things for no purpose just to see her smile.
That smile is the same face as your son.
Go back to the beginning,
Where it all had just begun.
The innocence simplified it all.
No dark corners.
No pain.
No downfalls.
Happiness.
Pure bliss.
Butterflies with every kiss.
Even thinking of them now,
I'm sure it's something you forgot that you miss.
In order to solve a problem,
First you must understand it.
The only way you'll understand it,
Is to except it and change it.
Plant your foot down in the ground.
Decide who you want to be.
And then do everything humanly possible to succeed.
Never let life take out your feet.
In times of need,
It's ok to rest on your knees.
To catch your breath.
Life isn't always about being the very best.
It's about the journey you take and the ultimate tests.
Those tests build your character.
Your strength.
They are like your oxygen tank.
Life is full of hard moments sadly,
and if you don't find a way to deal with it,
Eventually you'll go mad.
Turning into a beast who's on fire.
You're fighting a fight that you never even started.
Everything you use to try and put it out,
Is fire retardant.
Like a child who's trapped and still filed with desires.
Who is looking for love before that love expires.
Not knowing how to express emotions in a right way.
So one little thing can ruin your whole day.
Tearing yourself up inside on a daily basis.
Because you're living in a crisis.
And nobody knows it.
They seem to be oblivious.
You're afraid of risks.
Wanting to scream as loud as you can,
In an over populated room.
Because of everything you're going through.
Feeling alone.
Cold.
Isolated.
And a bit jaded.
The only way until now to deal with it was to get faded.
Now that's changed and you're at a crossroads.
Now you need to choose your road,
Trust your gut, and follow.
You don't have to be a thousand people in one.
Clean your closets.
So there's nothing more to run from.
Every time life kicks you in the face,
Imagine your sons.
You have the strength of a million men.
And the heart of a warrior.
Times ten.
Never ever let anyone or anything make you feel inferior.
I don't know if someones ever told you something for the interior.
So i am telling you now.
You're important.
You're special.
and you're more than loved.
There's nothing you could ever do,
To make me give up.
Like always, You're ten steps ahead.
But I'm walking right behind you.
Ive been learning as you lead.
Letting mistakes be what teaches me.
Like removing stains.
It bleaches.
In making your own mistakes,
You saved a life.
Mine.
And for that, I will return the favor.
Find you and bring you back to the light.
Show you things from my path.
Learned form others that saved my life.
The Ora should lighten the darkest room.
There's no time limit on finding you.
When you're ready to jump,
I'll jump with you.
Hand in hand.
I will be right there until you once again, Land.
On the grounds of new beginnings.
Paradise. Sand.
Two new feet with a pair of shoes that are name brand.
Feeling fresh.
Feeling new.
I couldn't end this poem without staying true to you.
I love you.

Little Faces 3/12


Little faces are the most beautiful.
So innocent.
So genuine.
So amazingly true.
They constantly carry the skies that are blue.
Smiles that could never be replaced.
laughter filling the air.
Their thing's scattered everywhere.
Living without a care.
Dora blaring in your ear.
To them, They rarely feel fear.
They just love with every breath.
They fully live until there is nothing left.
Falling asleep in a plate full of food.
Because they don't want to miss anything.
Life is too good.
Quiet voices or lungs that are clearly large.
Hear them quietly chatting.
Or screaming far afar.
Things that are so simple,
But bring happiness.
Like a swing at a park.
Just being outside.
It's where they feel mostly alive.
Because they feel free.
Unlike the society they live in.
Eventually life comes to a point,
Where society itself is what robs the innocence.
The enchanting essence.
Of something untainted.
Something absolutely beautiful.
They've been picked apart as they grew.
What's wrong, What's right, What's ok, And what not to do.
Their brains may still not be fully developed.
But don't let that fool you.
If you were smart,
You would recognize how much they can teach you.
Almost like each others guide.
Balancing a scale.
The scale of life.
Not the Cinderella fairy tale.
They say "Let children, be children".
Because we all know what society creates in the end.
A worn out, Tired soul.
Bitter once you become old.
Life is no longer your favorite ride at Disneyland.
Your head is no longer buried in the sand.
What you feel is the weight of the world.
While being married with 2 boys and 1 girl.
You have more than one job.
The home you never have time for,
Makes you seem like a slob.
The pressure to not become a statistic,
Or a family living off of assistance,
Is what causes these great resistances.
To be how we were born to be.
Love each other.
And live free.
Don't ever be tied down by this sick society.
You're an individual for a reason.
Don't let your Government take away your positive believing.
Educate yourself about the world you live in.
No just the United States.
You ask me why?
I already have too much on my plate.
Because those moments where you feel pure compassion for another soul,
Even half way across the world,
Are moments that you unknowingly instill in your little boys and girls.
Which inevitably, Can save the world.
Love.
Love is the answer to every question you have in life.
