America 2012

America 2012 America what have we done We sacrifice freedom for security We turn a blind eye to tyranny The change I see is infuriating America what have we become A hundred years of progress What liberty do we have left All we are left with is regret America what is freedom Were free to choose As long as our views Coincide with the powerful few America, land of opportunity Where you can prosper Or lounge if you prefer Seems most...

A poem for Mom

Mom Your there through thick and thin You always root for me to win You scolded me sometimes with a shout Your love for me I do not doubt You taught me lessons sometimes in vain I should have listened, avoided some pain You warned me not to follow the crowd I didn't care then but I do now You did your best this I know I grew up fast I had to go You taught me lessons along the way I put them to use day by day You...

Looking In That Damn Mirror Again.

When I look in the mirror I feel hate. Hate I can’t explain, hatred I have never felt for anyone else. I hate the person I was and I can’t look in the mirror and not see him.

Why wait

The Lord died for you he died for me. Why did it take so long for me to see. I was always waiting for God. Now that whole idea seems odd. It seems he told me I've been waiting for you.

He'd probably say sorry son it's to late. Eternity in Hell at that fiery place. I'm... (posted by Chad 298 days 2 hours ago.)
