live for you


Life's too short to live up to everyone's standard,
 break the mold, take chances,
 don't live to make others happy, 
but yourself
. You are who matters. 
Never stop being yourself. 
You'd be surprised how much happier you can be,
 when you let go of all the bullshit and start living in,
 and enjoying every moment of every day,
 sometimes life sucks,
 but make the best of it.
 Just be happy, 
for you, 
noone else.

you are beautiful



Just because the stars aren't shining, 
doesn't make a night any less beautiful than it should be.
 The same goes for a person.
 Just because your hairs a mess,
 or your in sweats and a t.
 You're still as beautiful as ever.
 Because beauty isn't what is seen,
 but what is felt.
 The hottest person on the planet,
 can still make you feel sick inside. 
What makes you beautiful may not be what others think,
 but what the right person feels.
 To the right person,
 your the best there is,
 without changing a thing or trying.
 So be yourself. And shine brightly.
 Not from what's outside, but from what's inside

the world slipping sideways

the details they escape me,
but I know that I was scared,
the first thing I remember, 
the world slipping sideways.

trying to re balance,
panic settles in,
I hunch down as low as I can go,
the world slipping sideways.

My eyes they close,
my hands they clamp down tight, 
my body tense as steel, 
the world slipping sideways.

my helmet strikes the road, 
as Im dragged across the asphalt,
scraping skin and bone,
the world slipping sideways, 

sounds of steel scraping,
sturdy plastic breaking,
bending the road sign as I smack
the world slipping sideways.

the sounds of catastrophe halt, 
catapulted from my perch,
tumbling like a rock,
the world slipping sideways.

the worlds spinning ceasing, 
the blood spread abound,
consciousness slowly retracing,
the world slipping sideways.

the pain setting in,
cutting deep as knives,
my motorcycle totaled
but thankful Im alive ,
the world slipping sideways.
