Stand By Me

A spoken word poem, inspired by a very close friend of mine. May he find happiness.


"Stand By Me"

I watch as he slouches in his seat
I can see the pent up emotion swirl around him like a tornado about to come crashing down
I wish I could lift up his shoulders
Taking the pain and frustration away and having him share that load
I watch as he pushes me away
Telling me that this is his pain and his pain alone
He want to protect me from the worry, the hate, the things people have nightmares about late at night.
I want to hold him close and tell him not to worry
That I have seen pain and struggle before.
I'm not new to the nightmares
They have come often to me
I want to show him that I can be strong not only for me but for his as well
That I am able to hold that load he holds on his back like a pain that will never go away.
I want him to believe
To believe in himself that he can be happy and successful.
I just want him to be happy.
I watch as he pulls his Hood over his head
As if he were hiding himself from the cruel world he lives in.
I wish I could reach out and comfort him
But still he pushes me away like a stubborn baby who only wants his mother.
The mother that has beaten any kind of happiness he ever had in his body
Beaten the lights out of from his eyes and replaced them with darkness
Allowing the depression to seep through his skin and mask his heart in heavy pain.
I cry out in agony.
Because I feel his pain.
I feel the hurt he has just as if I were his twin and we are both being smacked around.
But just like a twin, I stand by him and watch over him
When he is need of positivity, I am there.
When he is in need of a smile, I am there to put it on his face.
When he is need of the honest truth, I am there with the harsh reality he needs to hear.
But always with love.
I am there.
I watch as his gaze catches mine, and I stare back at him.
I try to send him that message not many people care to give.
Stand by me, and you will never be alone. You will always have me as a back up.
I'll be your shadow that fights the darkness that tries to consume you
Even if you don't want it, know I am there.
Stand by me, and live your life.

Writers Block

I open my laptop and stare at my blank screen
I stare at my blank screen trying to come up with something to write
I stare at my blank screen trying to write something when my writers block kicks in
I stare at my blank screen trying to write around my writers block when I think...
A poem!
Poems are awesome!
I think I'll write one
I stare at my blank screen trying to write a poem.
I try to write a poem staring at my blank screen when my writers block kicks in
again
So I place my fingers on the keyboard
And I write once sentence on my blank screen.
Writers Block SUCKS!

A Little About Me

A Little About Me

Hello,
Now before you start thinking negatively about this blogger, I just want to say that I love to write, and I have intresting ways in seeing things. I look at both sides of a story, and I like to analyze situations. Now, you might think it boring, but I can blow your mind with things that I say. I have strong points in conversations, but als ones that make you think "How was that relavent?"
People who know me, kno that I come up with great story ideas, and that I'm a great writer. If you give me the chance, I can show you that. I can show you a new world, or a new way of looking at the world. I can make you laugh, I can make you cry, I can make you really hate a character, or I can make you totally love them.
We all have a different way of showing the world to others through our eyes. What sets me different from everyone else is...well - I haven't let harsh reality force me to give up my imagination. I still have it, and I'm using it everday.
SO! Give me a chance, and I know I can give you a whole new world to explore.
