Kiss Theory

I'm no expert, but I have a theory...

A kiss shouldn't be force.
A kiss shouldn't be a thought.
A kiss shouldn't be have a pros and cons list.
A kiss shouldn't choke you.
A kiss shouldn't be venom.
A kiss shouldn't be...

A kiss shouldn't be the thing you hate the most.
A kiss shouldn't be meaningless.
A kiss shouldn't bring fear.
A kiss shouldn't follow a cheap pick up line that makes you lean in.
A kiss shouldn't bring doubts or a warning sign.
A kiss shouldn't make your heart want to run.
A kiss shouldn't stop your heart.
A kiss shouldn't make you look at the clock.
A kiss shouldn't be a nightmare.
A kiss shouldn't be...

A kiss should come like the wind.
A kiss should be on the spot.
A kiss should have no warning.
A kiss should feel right.
A kiss should be something you want to do.
A kiss should be sweet.
A kiss should have meaning to it.
A kiss should....

A kiss should  take your breath away,
but allows you to breathe.
A kiss should be at the perfect moment,
to just happen...
A kiss should be a feeling.
A kiss should be something you love.
A kiss should bring happiness.
A kiss should...

A kiss should make your heart race of joy.
A kiss should be passion.
A kiss should stop time.
A kiss should be a fairytale.
A kiss should....

Well, that's my theory anyway.

Protective Angel

This angel is not what it looks like,
Her face isn’t perfect, theres nothing perfect about her.
Her job is simple, but the work is hard.
Help those in need,
is her duty,
never show when she is breaking.
So many come for help,
always asking,
she listens that was the power she was given.
“Listen, even if you dont have the answer,
I promise you just caring and listening will heed their doubts. Never fall, you must not fall”,
The father told her above the clouds.
This was her duty.
Came with no wings,
no halo,
wanted her to live among his childeren.
She took those under her wing that she met
along the way.
In her time she did fall,
she tried to hear his voice,
but it never came.
She looked for his warmth, but all there was a clodness.
She now lived in his shadow,
he turn away from her.
She called her brothers,
who were forbidden to answer, but always heard her cries.
They were bounded by the father,
to not even help in anyway.
Gaberial pledged,
Micheal didnt even bother,
all he did was stay by this sister,
but remaine silent.
She grew with hatered and confuse,
abonded by her world.
Another brother was lost in the skies
came crashing down.
He was what man is
put together by good and evil.
She found strength till his anger consume him.
Again she was alone.
She give up her cries and never understood
why this was her and why he turned away,
left her only with pain.
She is not an angel at all,
she guards herself,
but she keeps her duty,
help those, but learned to loved them as well.
She realize those that wouldn’t turn their backs
or run away from her were the ones that matter.
They protect her, if she allowed it
and
she would protect them.
Under her wing there will be safety.

The day that Angels were Made

Look at this old newspaper
it's apart of history.
An event that changed everything.
An even we will never forget.

It was a day
People went to work,
children went to school
and others walked the streets.
All with their future
Ahead of them.
Then it happen...

The plane dived
Into the tower.
We stare into the sky
taking it all in.
The giant began to fall
ashes filled the air.

People ran
from the destruction
while others ran
towards it.
Before anyone was safe
another plane,
another giant fell
from the sky.

Ashes everywhere
taking the oxygen.
How could anyone
be safe?
When brothers fall
side by side?

We'll always remember
cause that day took
more than twin brothers
and taught us our
mistakes.

When those people got on
those planes
did they tell their love ones
that they loved them?
Tell them that they
will talk to them soon?
Tell them they'll see them soon?
Did they panic?
Did they stand up?
Did they accept the worst?

Those who went to work
did they make plans
to meet for lunch?
Did they make dinner plans
with their love ones?
Did they tell their children
that they mean the world to them?
Tell their lover
Those three simple words?

No school was prepare
for anything like this.
No handbook,
nothing.
Those in range kept
them safe inside.
Those away to watched
and dismissed.
There was no play time.

Those that walked that day
to see the city.
Were they tourist?
Were they residents?
They wittiness the event
that will never be forgotten.

Was anyone in a fight
with those they love?
Were they mad
or happy?

Look at this old newspaper,
it's apart of history.
An event that changed everything.
An event we will
never forget.

It took more than twin brothers.
It took fathers,
mothers,
sisters,
lovers
and peace.
It took heroes.
All angels
now watching over their love ones.

In & Out of the Portal

Around them the world is silent to them,
they are detached from it.
They don't know how.
They can see and hear the world,
they can even touch it,
and interact with it,
but something is separating them
from the world.

Its not a wall
more like a portal of some sort
that blends in making impossible to find
if you don't know where the door is.
No one can see them
even when they are standing right beside others.
Sometimes they don't know they entered it
and left the world,
in and out.

In the portal
they are numb,
lost feeling,
in a neutral state.
When everything is whatever
unchangeable, just in the middle.
They're walking
without warning they left
gone into the portal.
Walking side by side the world
when words become noise
only silence leaves their mouth
when they speak.

In, out of the portal
blends with the world
with the walls.
They are side by side
cant be seen.
In the portal
numb and coldest fills their blood.

Watch out,
maybe you'll see
where the entrance
sand take them out of the portal.

What Our Hearts Know About Goodbye

It doesn't get easier,
no, no,
it doesn't get easier,
no, no,
we've said it a million times, but
doesn't mean we've grown numb.
No,
doesn't mean we're cold.
No,
It doesn't get easier,
no,no,

It doesn't get easier, but
nerves go away.
Panic fades into calm,
It doesn't get easier,
we know what to expect
the world isn't  going to end
it doesn't get easier,
no,no

A new step
we take
into a new doorway
everyday
we say it
every time we part
there's nothing easy about it
it doesn't get easier,
but we know
its not forever.
It doesn't get easier
no,no

It doesn't get easier
when we take our part
we feel a little pain, but
our hearts leave warm
cause our hearts know
they carry a little of each other
with them and know
the real words......

See you later, love you.

Still Believin

We died believin'
in a hero.
Who wasn't real
But was real to us.
We died believing
In hope and love.
We died believin'
To be the first to tell
The tale.
We died believin'
with our hearts.

We died believin'
the horror was not real
that it was the sounds
of the world we were seeing.
We died believin'
in a hero,
sharing this world
with another
at least we got to kiss.
We died believin'
we would see others
again someday.

We died believin'
we'll see tomorrow.
We died believin'
No one would gone
this far.
We died believin'
there is good with the bad
in people.
We died believin'
good will always win.

We died believin'
in a hero
with a mask
We died believin'
anyone could be him
We died believin'
That someone
with scars and power
would act for
what's right.

We died believin'
with our hearts...

Don't Tell Me

Don't tell me
where hell is,
I know the way.
Don't tell me
what it is like,
 I've been there.
Don't tell me
how hot the fire is,
I've walked through
the flames.
Don't me
you've seen his face,
Ive touched it.
Don't tell me
he's evil,
I know the good in him.
Don't tell me
you've walked with him,
Ive dance with him
Don't tell me
his wings are dark and hard.
Ive seen them,
one wing is feathers like angel wings
and the other dark and cold.
Don't tell me
he brings no warmth,
Ive hug him.

Don't tell me
what you do not know.
Don't tell me
I have my beliefs.
Don't tell me
our minds are different.
Don't tell me.

Friends Stop Fighting

Why are you fighting?
No really I don't get it.
Do you hear yourselves?
Seriously,
Why are you fighting?

Whoa, take sides
me?
I'm not stupid.
Do you hear yourselves?
I'm not saying
whose right or wrong.
I'm just saying the logical thing.

You guys aren't talking to each other,
really?
You're both being stupid.
Don't risk your friendship.
Please,
stop the fighting,
take a breathe,
think for a minute.
See it?
Look at it from my point of view.

I promise this fight isn't worth it.
Seriously stop,
before any really damage is done
cause your friendship
is more important &
valuable.

You Stand There

You stand there
With your head
Held up high.
You stand there
Cause you've beaten the odds.
You stand there

You made your mistakes
You turn them
Into something positive.
You stand there
With your scars,
But don't regret them
Cause they help
Be the person
You are today.
You stand there

You stand there
Cause you're strong.
You stand there
Cause you care.
You stand there
Saving lives
Even when you don't know it.

You stand there
Cause you
Don't run when it rains.
You stand there
Cause of how
You see each person.
You stand there
Cause you see
How perfect they are
Even if they don't see it.
You stand there

The most important
Thing you
Do is
Stand there.
Being there.
You stand there,
You make this
World better
Each day
When
You stand there

Our World: The Comic Book World

People everywhere
people dress in costumes
as their favorite
hero or villain.
Wearing a shirt
with Spider-Man,
with Batman,
with the Joker,
with Superman's symbol
on them.
Going through boxes
of comics
old, but brand new.
Superheroes' names being
toss around
and the stories
that we remember the most.

You may call
us nerds, geeks, outcasts,
even odd.
Do you know what
you look to us?
You look odd,
out of place
like you took a
wrong turn.
But unlike you
we'll welcome you
with open arms.
You'll learn
that we have more fun
and cooler
than any of your friends
cause we're crazy
and odd.
We just lost care
and have no worries,
we all understand
each other.

This is our world
were we come together
once in a year.
There's more of us
that you'll ever imagine.
Trust me,
you're lucky we only
meet once in the year
in different states.
Yeah, that's right,
we're all
over the world.

You see some of my pictures
recognize some of the stars
and ask where I took them.
I laugh
cause believe it
or not,
they come visit us
once a year
in our world.

I told you
you call us
odd, freak, nerd,
geek, outcast,
but when you
enter our world
you're the one
that's odd, freak,
an outcast,
but we don't care.
We'll open our arms
with welcome
if you open
your mind.

Cause we're crazy
and odd,
lost care
what the world thinks
and no worries
cause we understand
each other.

We even have heroes
behind our backs
Hell, we even
have the villains
on our side.

Come on do you really
want to mess with us?
You should just join us.
Cause you can't
beat us.

I'm Easy

I'm easy
you probably don't believe me.
I don't cause drama
runaway from it as quickly as possible.
I'm easy
don't ask ,e to take sides
cause I'll just turn up
the T.V. louder.
I'm easy
I won't be put in the
middle of a war,
good ever comes
from a battle
there's no winners,
no losers.
I'm easy
I don't understand the problem
the conflict you created,
maybe it's my logic.
I'm easy
you're yelling at friends,
you're yelling at me,
I didn't do anything.
I'm easy
Why you yelling at me?
I don't know maybe
I'm just too easy.

I'm easy
I have my set of rules
they're simple,
not that hard to understand.
I'm easy
You insult my love ones
threatening them,
making them bleed
right in front of me
you better run
and hope you never
cross my path again.
I'm easy
is that really hard to understand?

I'm so easy
you'll never believe it.
You say let's do something
wild and crazy.
Let's do it.
I say alright.
You say let's go skydiving
I say let's do it.
I'm easy
Then you complain to me
why ain't I stopped you.
I'm easy
What's the harm
we only get to live once.
I'm easy
Let's go on an adventure
cause we're on this journey.
I'm easy

You get frustrated
on how easy I am.
I'm just easy
and I laugh
cause what you're saying
of all these choices
you have to make
when you wake up.
I'm easy
I put on a shirt,
put on a pair of pants,
quick brushing,
one pair of shoes.
I'm easy
ten minutes done.
I'm easy
You don't understand
is  not that I don't care.
I know what I like
and I lost care
of what the world thinks
cause this is me.
I'm easy

I'm easy
so take a breath,
hold on tight.
Listen to the greats
one said,
"Its five o'clock somewhere."
The other said, " What the Hell is always
the answer to the
right decisions."
One said, " Live as if you'll die today.
Dream as you'll live forever."
I'm easy
True to of them died young,
but that doesn't make them wrong.

I'm easy
So easy you wouldn't believe it.
So easy it may take you forever to grasp that
I'm easy.

Where Home is...

Home
Most people know it well,
can tell you exactly
where it is,
the address,
everything.
Home
I don't know where it is
hopping from place to place
its annoying
frsaucating.
I don't know what to say
when people ask where are you from.

Home
That one place
where you can be yourself
and not be judge
cause the people
love you no matter what.
The one place
you feel love
you feel that you belong.

Home
You would laugh
be confuse
where I call home.
It is where my family
is not made by blood,
but by bonds
where it is always with me,
where I am an adoptive daughter of many.
Where I am also a friend of many.
I can physically visit them
when time permits it.

Home
Is inside me.
Home
Is for me
my heart.
Where love comes from
and where it is received.
True there is nothing like
I'm sorry
no place like home
physically being around
those people,
but as we move forward in life.

We keep the memories of our past
but we keep the people
that matter the most
and choose to stay around.
We keep them
with us in the
present and future.

This doesn't mean
we are suck in the past
it means
we are willing to move forward,
but keep them in our hearts.
We choose not to be
hold back by them,
but to give us
the drive to keep
moving forward.

This is for those
that make my home
in my heart
and who give me
the drive to never give up.
Thank you
for adopting me
even those its not official.
Thank you
for a place
where I wan to tap
my feet together saying
"There is no place like home."

My Cocaine

You taste so good
You are my cocaine,
my drug.
I never want to give you up.
Without you I wouldn’t know what to do.
You are my escape,
You make everything make sense
In this crazy world.
 
So many make you,
There are some bad kinds of you
and then there’s the insanely good kinds.
By now I can tell which one is which.
Like Drug dealers know the difference
in fake cocaine from the real thing.
 
You are my high
Shoot me up
I want another
Keep them coming.
I never want to stop
but I do so I don’t lose my need for you.
 
I’m amazed that my blood isn’t your color
cause of how much of you is in me.
You are the reason I rarely get sick.
 
People wonder how I can take
 minutes and  the dosage size
Of you in less than an hour.
You are liquid.
You are orange.
You are my drug.
You are orange juice.


The Presence of a Goddess


                                                                 To Cyndi Lauper
Oh, My God!
I’ve been to many concerts
David Cook, Kelly Clarkson,
Sick Puppies, Shinedown,
and Nickelback in Atlantic City.
Bon Jovi in Hershey.
All using pyrotechnics, high technology
to win their fans.
 
Come Back to Me.
Breakaway.
Maybe.
 Second Chance.
If today was your last day.
Shot through the heart.
All world renown.
All iconic.
You legendary.
 
Oh, My God!
Your songs are older than me,
I’m the youngest in the crowd.
Your voice travels through time.
Spot light makes you shine
only cause the lights are down.
Talking to us
getting us pump.
You turn around.
The music starts.
The lights go on.
Gracing us with your voice.
 
The cameras and recorders come out.
You don’t just sing
You get right up and personal.
Controlling the stage.
Giving us a show
with a goddess presence.
 
You confuse your band
changing the set
making us laugh
we just listen along.
 Floating on the stage,
God isn’t the only one
who can walk on water.
 
You listen for perfection
in only things you can hear.
Playing the first note
I know the song,
pulling my recorder out
to treasure this moment.
The crowd sings along.
You take a breather.
Another note, another song,
these lyrics from your soul
into my heart.
 
Watching you
listening to you
you are a goddess.
A goddess of music.
 
An iconic
World renown
Goddess.
Who has no need
for high technology
cause she doesn’t have to win
her fans
cause they already
love her.
 
Time After Time,
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
and may our
True Colors shine.


Yes World

Yes world
They screw up
Yes world
They are your joke
Yes world
You're severing them apart
Yes world
They fight being their own knight
Yes world
They have their wounds 
Yes world
They camouflage with the dark
Yes world
They have tears
Yes World
They just hide them away from you
Yes world
They fail you
Yes world
You set low standards for them to pass
Yes world
You hit them low
Yes world
You play with their heart like Jeff Dunham with his puppets
Yes world
They are bleeding
Yes world
They are stained
Yes world
They feel
Yes world
They are a monster
Yes world
They are cursed

Premiere Day

On the red carpet
Seeing the cameras
The flashes going off.
I knew all this was happening around me before
What a difference.
You are standing next to me.
 
Fires trucks, police cars, ambulance
Rush by
I look at you
That look you always gave me
Melts my heart more now that I see it.
I have to go
You beg me to not go for this one time
Enjoy yourself
Just this one night.
I don’t give me
Give you a hug
I leave.
 
Come back with holes in my clothes
With black charcoal covering them.
I take my seat next to you
You grab my hand
I can tell that you thought I wasn’t going to make it in time.
 
The movie starts
My eyes start to hurt.
Our favorite part coves on
Where I saw you for the first time.
I look back at you
A tear runs down your check
The light goes out on me
For the second time
And for the last.

To A New Found Friend

There's this person
I didn't know her
Never really saw her.
She was one of people that would say hi and wave at me
In passing
I would say hi back.
Then go to myself
“Who the hell was that?
Do we even know that person?”


One day I was coming back from a class
Got in the elevator
Hold it for this person.
She starts talking to me
About a hall event
And I'm thinking why she talking about this
Slowing I piece it together.
Asked her if she is a RA
Told me she is the RA for my hall.


Now getting to know her
Slowly letting her in
Nervous.
Our first talk was difficult
Cause of commutation problems
By me,
we were and still never know if we are ever talking about the same thing,
We’re working on it.


I found
She is cool
Funny
Nice & caring
I found that
I am honor
She calls me
Her friend.

To My Friend Snow White


Snow,
You caught something bad
just got sick
Not from a poison apple.
Stay, don't move,
get sleep,
give your body time to heal.
Sorry no prince to wake you up
By a kiss.


You have dwarfs to help you
if you need them.
They will take care of you
make sure you get your sleep
and what you need to get better.
You've woken up.
You're ready to go.


You come in,
said the witch hurt you
They got mad
You told them no.
You're crying.
They hate seeing you hurt
feeling helpless.


They call me up
told me some witch hurt you.
I go to her castle
I gave her a warning.
Told her next I won't be so kind.


I come to you,
the dwarfs leave us
You’re crying,
looking sad,
I give you a hug
don't let you go until your eyes are dry.
I stayed through the night
making sure you were all right.
Left in the morning
before you woke.


The dwarfs told me
you are badly injure
I come right over.
Took you to the hospital
Doctors don't know.
I'm pissed.


I left to go into the woods,
found the huntsman.
We argued,
there I was with a sword and shield.
I fought him
to the death.
Found out he wasn't as heartless as the evil queen.
He parish in the depths
of the woods.


Ran back to the hospital,
all the dwarfs were asleep
I softly woke them up
told them to go back home.


I waited for a word
night turn into day.
A man dress in white
walked towards me,
afraid of his next words.
He told me I could relax now.
 Told me that you made it,
you are resting now.


He walked me into your room
to wait for you to wake up.


A day later
You nudged me to get up
asked me,
“What? Still no prince?”
I told you,
“Nah, no prince.
You're going to find him,
but your knight found you.”

Trying to Hold on Tigth

Would you hold on tight
for one more second?
I know you don’t want to,
I know you would rather
pull the trigger,
jump off the stool.
Let me hold you
for one more second.
Before
you
pull the trigger
jump off the stool


I’m not asking you to wait
that’s your choice.
I’m just standin’ here,
I may not have the answers
which you seek.
But can I hold you tight
just for one more second.
I know this may sound strange to you,
you wanna go,
you're free


If you go
pull the trigger
jump off the stool
do you really think
no tear will be shed?
Look at me
I'm already shedding my eyes.


I’m not asking for you to wait
that’s your choice.
You pull the trigger.
Jump off the stool .
The lights go down.
The eyes shed their tears.


All I want to do
is to hold you tight
for one more second
that never came.

Lazer, Camera, Action!

Two days from now is production
Will you come with me to get my sight back?
I know, ten years along time without seeing
Without wanting to see.
I want to see
I’m letting go of the past
I want to see the world
Your face, his face, their faces
Your children, my wedding
The colors
To be no longer in darkest
To see the light.


I don’t want to count my steps
To not guess where I should be looking.
Will you come with me?


The doctor explains all the dangers
You hold my hand tight.
I'm not afraid
You are
Thinking all will go wrong.



The laser starts…


Day of production
My eyes still bandage up
We get in costumes and makeup
I do the first scene without you
We don’t meet until two hours later.


The bandages come off
The moment capture on film
It’s the child meeting the mother for the first time
Both our breathes are taking away
We continue with the scene
Cut.


We both cry
I don’t want to move
I don’t want to take my eyes off of you.
Don’t want to leave your side.
I'm the weak one for the first time.


I can’t lose a second of this
Taking in this moment
Pausing it.


My first movie
Where I didn’t count my steps
Where I didn’t have to act like
I could see.


That’s a wrap.

Be the Rebel without a Cause

“Dream as if you’ll live forever, live as if you’ll die today.”- James Dean
So why not take the risk
Take the chance.
Conquer your fears.
Shine in the darkness.
Run into the fire.
Fight instead of flight.
Save a life.


Go out of control.
Live by your own rules.
Be crazy.
Be yourself.


Fall in love.
Be loved.
Find a reason to smile.
Laugh the loudest.


Chase your dreams.
Make them real.
Most importantly
When the world says you cant
Show it that you can.
Take the world.


Take a risk.
Take a chance.

I Dance with Him

I dance with him
eery day.
Some hate him.
Some fear him.
I don’t.
I see the good in him
Most wouldn’t think
There is good in him.
He never lets go and
When I fall
He pulls me in
In his arms,
I feel safe.


I dance with him
The sounds of the world
Is our music.
His wings have two sides
One is his devil wing
And the other is his angel wing.


The world hates him
But he is human.
He smiles.
He laughs.
He cries.
He gets angry.
He cares.
He loves.

He is the angel.
He is the devil.


From the Battlefield

Went to war
The other day
Yet I’m hiding in shame.
You see the sky today
Filled with clouds
Crying throughout the day
That’s what the inside
Of my head looks like.


Went to war
The other day
Funny thing
You won’t notice or
Know a thing about it
By just looking at me.
I'm from that battlefield
I’ve been traveling all night.


Went to war
The other day
I’m from the battlefield.
I was destroyed
I was remade
In the battlefield.


I left as a young soldier
You never wanted me to go,
But I had to fight.
The last time I saw you,
You were asleep
The day I left.
I'm in the doorway
Cross from you
My eyes are dark
Holes through my uniform
Gun on my back
I still have my hemalt.


When I enter
You welcome me,
All I want to know
Is can I rest my head
For a while, away from
The battlefield.


You never want me to leave
Cause you are afraid
That one day ,
I might not return,
Or I might return
With more wounds and holes
Then I have now.
Don’t worry I’ll make sure
That you won’t have to see them.


Days later…
I’m sorry
It’s time that I go back
Don’t want to go,
But duty calls.
Be safe.
Don’t worry too much.
See you later.

I walk away
I can’t look back at you
And I go back to
The battlefield.

As If You Have Never Been


As if you have
never been here the leaves change.
the snow falls.
the rain drips.
The sun burns.
As if you have
Never been here
Life keeps moving
There’s no stop or pause button,
the earth keeps spinning
and the clock still ticks.
As if you have
Never been here
I’m smiling, laughing.


You put a hold on everything
but I kept moving.
As if you have
never been here
everything seems so clear.

As if you have
never been here
I listen to my friends
and hear them.
For the first time they make sense
and I’m not deinning their words anymore.

As if you have
never been here
my world is brightening up.
My friends saw the abuse
now they see the freedom.

As if you have
never been here.

Put Me Down Shoot Me Down

Put me down
Shoot me down
Like you put down a horse
That you think is no good anymore
That its best days are
Behind it.
I’ve run my races
Gave you a run
For the records
Hell, I made them.
I’ve done more than
Any horses have done. 

I’ve race, beaten the odds
When they said I couldn’t
I shut their mouth.
Now it hurts to trot
Every step is pain
In my shoes.
So, put me down
Shoot me down.

I’ve run into a battle
Into a war
Never away from a fight.
I take people in harm’s way
And take them to safety.
I’ve lived in horrors
That I hope you will
Never have to see or
Live through.
Put me down
My knees are all bloody
One leg feels broken.
Shoot me down.
 
You ask for one more race
And I respond with
Rubbing my head against
Yours telling you
I’m ready.
We walk on the track
Telling the world
We are here for one
More shot
To prove that we can
Do this.

The bell rings
We race
For our lives
We show them
That together we
Can conquer anything.
We win,
The crowd cheers
Our names.
Take the picture
I go down to my
Knees with pain.
Tried
Please, put me down
Shoot me down
Like a horse
Cause I can’t go on anymore.
Put me down
Shoot me down

I hear I love you
And then gun fire.
Thank you.
I love you.

Stewie's Deams

Damn you veil women
Of you taking away
My guns and my weapons
Of mass desaturation.
I have two dreams
One to kill you
I can’t wait for that day
When your body is laying
Lifeless in a sea of blood
Victory will be mine.

Two is when the world
Will be mine.
I will be ruler
My words will be law.
World demoation
Is what I hunger for
One day
One day
You’ll bow down to me.
You’ll beg for mercy
Which I won’t give.
One day
I will rule.
One day
I will kill you.

Damn you veil women
One day
You will pay
And I can’t
Wait for that day.

Sunday Magic

There’s something
About Sunday football games
I don’t know.
There’s some magic
Almost like Disney
But simpler
Sunday’s magic
Brings families together
Gives un another day together
Which for some
Is a rarity.

I don’t understand
Much of football ,
But this I know
It brings families together
It’s the spark
Launching the magic
Into the day.
Sunday magic
That’s what it is
And you can’t fight it.
Sunday magic

Having a Heart to Heart

They are in class
Always getting into fights
Always getting into trouble.

Her father is the headmaster
His name is Scott Summers
Her mother is dead.
She never forgiven herself
Blaming her father’s new wife
Emma Frost.

Her and Emma
Fought everyday
If they didn’t kill each other
It was a good day.
They were never left alone
Never spent any real time together
Never talked.

Three years have gone by
She holds anger and sadness in her heart.
Big sister moved out
To the city
Disgusted with even the idea of Emma.
They haven’t been
A family ever since.

With the holiday approaching
She came to Scott, “I want this to end.
I’m ready.”
He looks at her with a smile.
“Thanks Scott.”
She runs off with
A smile on her face.
He stands there in shock.

The first week in December
The X-Men gather around in the living room
“All right gang, time for secret Santa. Changer, why don’t ya go first?” , Scott announces
With a hat full of their names.
She steps up and pulls a name out of the hat,
Looks at it and smiles at him.
“Emma?” , Scott calling her to go next
And does the same and gives him a mean look.

Weeks later
No one has seen the Changer.
For she has been hard at work
Going to places, she thought she would never have to revisit.
All they know is
She has been using power tools
And won’t let anyone into her room.
Christmas day…
“Okay everyone its time to exchange gifts,
Remember you spend the whole day with
Your secret Santa and meet back for Christmas dinner.”, Scott tells them.

She walks up slowly
To Emma and says
“Hey Emma, would you come sit with me?”

“Well, sure my dear.”, Emma replies.
They walk to the sofa and sit
For the first time she
Is nervous in front of Emma.

“I know I’ve been a jerk to you in every way possible.
I’m sorry for that, you don’t deserve it.  Would you please be open
For me to treat you better?”
She pleads with Emma.

“Of course I will.”, Emma tells her and they both smile.

She hands Emma a box
“This is for you.”
Emma opens the box,
Emma is dazzle by it.
“ I curve this key out of diamonds
And the chain is adamantium.
It represents that um… the key to my heart
And you have access to it and
Cause it’s the strongest stuff it will protect you.
I will protect you, Emma.” , She promises.

“It’s beautiful. Thank you.
Then this fits you perfectly.”
Emma hands her a box
“ It’s a  locket it has everyone in there, family picture of
Jean, Scott, Rachel and you.
I hope one day
You can add a picture with me in it.
Oh, there’s also a picture of Logan, see?
Do you like it?” , Emma explains to her.

She sits there
And tears start
To fall for the first time
In Emma’s presence and hugs her.

“Come child, I want to show you something
If you take us there.”
Knowing where Emma wants to go
They teleport to the cemetery
At Jean’s headstone.
“I want you to know
That I also grieve for you, your sister, and for Scott.”
Emma places a rose next to the headstone.
Together they cry
In each other’s arms.
