If cars where guys
all the Camaros
would sit in showcases
without motors
and all the average bananas
would run around and go places
'till the miles cam
and ran out
I wouldn't doubt
the Camaro got rusty
and forgotten
but old blue had a funeral
even a coffin

I know you want to look hot
but your mind is all that matters
don't become a big shot
I hate that more often
than not

I want you to see
there is so much more
so much more that you could be
If you just settle
for what's inside
than for contemporary looks
in a temporary life

Amazing Grace
how sweet the sound
that opened my eyes
to all the lies
we fool ourselves to believe
wake up
listen and learn

you could be surprised

my best bud
is not the best bod
but it doesn't matter
in the end we're all fatter
a friendship is what matters

looks are curses
friends are like kisses
and that's all I gotta say about it.


sleep my precious slumber

Casual, yet very sophisticated. You have a lot of good stuff to say.
The only bad thing I have to say is that the spelling leaves a lot to be desired here...

Adorable... like you sat down and scribbled a few thoughts and it ended up like this. I really like it when someone is this casual and comfortable with writing.

I really love this. Way too many people are too concerned with looks, when that to me, is what matters the least.
Personality IS always more remembered.

We were meant to live for so much more have we lost ourselves?
Maybe redemption has stories to tell maybe forgiveness is right where you fell.

thanx everyone...xno4everx - if you still want an explanation, e-mail me and i can get into some better details, mostly i was just using metaphores at the beggining though. Ixxi - I'm sorry, lol, i forget to run these through a spell checker every now and then...Rachelle, Alli, Blue, and Winter, I'm glad you liked this also, I know that a lot of people would agree with this and the remainder probably needs to hear it because of what the Media is always telling us - Subtly or not. anyways, catch you all later,

Vary creative but it lacked structure it was everywhere and I had a hard time putting the whole picture together but other than that I like the theme and the content good poem...keep writing

when you live you begin to die
when you die memories of you life lives in others
when memories of you begin to fade
you truly begin to die
