Hey! Hey! Hey!
I don't like walking around this old and empty house
So hold my hand, I'll walk with you, my dear
The stairs creak as you sleep, it's keeping me awake
It's the house telling you to close your eyes
And some days I can't even dress myself
It's killing me to see you this way
'Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Hey! Hey! Hey!
There's an old voice in my head that's holding me back
Well tell her that I miss our little talks
Soon it will be over and buried with our past
We used to play outside when we were young
And full of life and full of love.
Some days I don't know if I am wrong or right
Your mind is playing tricks on you, my dear
'Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Hey!
Don't listen to a word I say
Hey!
The screams all sound the same
Hey!
Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Hey!
Hey!
You're gone, gone, gone away
I watched you disappear
All that's left is the ghost of you.
Now we're torn, torn, torn apart,
There's nothing we can do
Just let me go we'll meet again soon
Now wait, wait, wait for me
Please hang around
I'll see you when I fall asleep
Hey!
Don't listen to a word I say
Hey!
The screams all sound the same
Hey!
Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Don't listen to a word I say
Hey!
The screams all sound the same
Hey!
Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Monster and Men.
The argument with the heart.

Heart #13
I am in a classroom with every seat full. The classroom become smaller and smaller and the
students less and less. There are only 2 people left. The room increases to normal size and turns into
a conference room. The other person in the classroom was a girl. Her brown hair with blonde
highlights was not easily mistaken. I saw her across the room and started towards her. As I walked
towards her she got farther and farther away. She then transformed into a yellow sundress with a hat
running through a garden. Like one of those nice ones in England. I sprinted afterwards just seeking to know her name. We
chased each other for what seemed to be hours. Every time I would get in front of her, I would notice a new and beautiful
quality about her. Her eyes were like the sea when changing to the shallow sandy floor into the coral reefy forest. Her lips
were a thin and the color of pink rose. Then she disappeared. Into thin air like the desks and classmates. I spent the next
several moments searching the entire garden. Not a single thing. I place my head in my hands and close my eyes. I feel water
on my knees. I open my eyes, stand up and look around. I am on a beach with nothing around me. There is no boardwalk,
beach homes, or people. I turn around to take in the scenery and there she is. Standing next to me in a white dress and she
had something in her hand. I could tell it was a pinkish red because it was just bigger than her palm. She outstretches her
hand is handing me something. I hold out my hand and she drops something in. It was warm, wet, red, and beating. I felt a
bulge in my chest. I reached in and felt the same thing that this girl had just given me. I pull out my heart and give it to the
girl. She smiled and disappeared.
I woke up. I cried.
The realization that the most beautiful creature is out there somewhere with my heart.
I don't even know her name.

Parents are supposed to be there for you.
They are supposed to kiss your boo boos and cheer you up after a long day.
They are the ones responsible for making you feel purpose and love.
They are supposed to teach you how to ride a bike, they are supposed to help you with your homework, and they are supposed to take you out on fun filled days every once and a while.
Parents are supposed to make you a yummy breakfast before the first day of school.
They are supposed to drive you in blizzards.
They are supposed to pay your school fees, a trip to an amusement park, or a graduation gown and cap.
They are supposed to excuse your absences when school has only gotten harder since they attended.
They are supposed to remember how hard it was in high school and that they didn't want to go to school either.
They are supposed to cut you some slack when you want to stay out later on the night of prom.
They are supposed to make you feel safe.
They are supposed to make you feel like you are someone special and will make a difference in the world.
They are supposed to make your life worth living.
The word 'supposed to' isn't in my parents vocabulary.
Real talk. It really sucks.

Fears #8
My fears include; scorpions, sticky surfaces, and dirty cars.
Marines, Cops, and Kidnappers.
Lost-love, Being alone, and Never amounting to anything.
Losing her, disappointing my family, and eternal sadness.
Which are the worst? It depends on the situation.
When faced with a scorpion in my path, how can I think about anything else?
When a cop pulls me over and the sunk feeling in my stomach, I would say that pretty back.
Lost-love, That truly is pretty bad.
Which is the worst of all?
I don't know.

I'm not a robot.
Do I wish I was though?
Robots don't make mistakes.
Who wouldn't want to be a robot?
Robots know everything.
They also have no emotion.
They can't feel pain of a breakup.
Or the abuse of a bully.
They don't cry.
Being a robot would be so much easier.
But he they never feel the warmth of a hug.
Or the excitement of a kiss.
They never smile at the flowers he got you for Valentines Day.
But maybe he never bought you flowers.
Or surprised you with a kiss.
Maybe you never feel the warmth of a mothers hug.
Just the sting of her hateful words.
They pain of the lies your friends told about you.
Maybe I wish I didn't have emotions.
Maybe being a robot isn't all that bad.
Maybe the grass really is greener that way.
