A Poem For My Perfect Girl

I'm madly infatuated.
Seems my pain's evaporated.
I'm crazy for this girl,
and I'd go crazy without this girl.

She often makes me speechless,
And I often make her wordless.
I want to see her ever morning
Now my life isn't so boring.

If It Were Another World

If it were another world, we'd be lovers.
If it were another world, I'd be a much better person.
If it were another world, the world would know peace.
If it were another world, there'd be nothing wrong.
But this isn't another world, so I'll dream on.

People May Change But I Won't

I have witnessed the greatest act
People changing with their identity intact
Transforming from a worn slack
To all that they used to lack

Although these changes are great
I find I can not clean my slate
I will be forever everlasting
Truest feelings I will be masking

It's great to see change
At first it may seem strange
These people have found someone worth changing for
My agent of change has not yet walked through the door

Meet My Despair

Meet my despair,
She doesn't even show signs of care.
She knows she'll be my destruction,
That's the meaning behind her construction.

Meet my despair,
You can taste the foul death in the air.
She smirks at the cause of my untimly death,
It makes her lose her frigid breath.

Meet my despair,
She's my burden to bear.
She'll dance on my grave,
Ah, she's so brave.

Meet my despair,
her name's.357 magnum.
She's truly lovely.
She's truly mine,
My despair.

Help! Society Is In A Dire Situation

In this day and age the idiotic proceed
Our society is crumbling
The ideas of individuality have been vanquished
Scruples are now decided by the television

In this society, only the brutish and orange in nature
Will thrive in such a vicious future
The very thought is dictated by the famous
As our morals fall the arrogant shall rise

The ideals of relationships and religion have been torn asunder
As the men try to have as many courtships as possible
And the women try to birth children
Almost as much as they birth ignorance

Yet do not heed my warnings nor my observations
Just sit back relax and have a cold one
As society is screaming for help
Continue on your joyous way
