You enter the house, all boring in black in white,
the second you enter, color is slapped onto the painting,
at first we share a glance, as I am in utter shock of your beauty,
you look away and smile, as I am astonished by your shyness.
I walk up to you, say you look amazing tonight,
you say thanks, you don't look so bad too,
I ask you if you would like to dance, already we are holding hands,
pull you towards the center of the room, as together we sway with the beat.
Then you push me into the wall, and walk away in confusion,
say nothing can happen, be mature about this something must,
I could go on a lifetime just kissing, with you it is much more than mere attraction,
I truly click with you, happiness is sure to accompany time while I am in your presence.
4/24/10 Pardon Me
My road is littered with false hope, and pictures of my former self,
why must the lonely stoner be free at night, why must he suffer for himself,
pardon me while i change, pardon me while I won't ever be the same,
pardon me if I choose to not talk, you treated us as a game.
I should stop looking for girls like my mom, since that means they mastered the art of departure,
take my heart and dip it in a flame, aim me at the other like an archer,
pardon me while I distrust women, pardon me while I speak personal truth,
pardon me while I never grow up, I will always choose the side of youth.
Got so much smoke in my room, I feel like Taker when I enter,
hit that bubbler like Dragonbreath, let me begin to be your mentor,
pardon me while I hit that blunt, pardon me while I fly high,
pardon me while I choose to numb, as I lift off to the sky.
I got a girl who knew me, before I hit that cloud nine,
sop on that Gatorade, occasionally the fine wine,
pardon me while I think of New Years, pardon me while I replay,
pardon me while i stay high for weeks, my life has run astray.
4/24/10 Lets Pretend
"Can we pretend that airplanes, in the night sky,
are like shooting stars, I could really use a wish right now,"
lets pretend I never stopped playing football, trying to be better than Jay Feely,
hoping for Fordham to be in my future, now lets pretend this was real.
Lets pretend that I didn't get senioritis, and got those straight A's,
never missed a day going into college, perfect future to portray,
kept that rap sheet going, straight to the Hunter Hawks,
hoping I would pass every class, as a pitcher I clearly balked.
Lets pretend I started QB at Fordham, knowing it is more than dreams seem,
my mind has become a garden, only in happiness will it be plowed,
lets pretend that airplanes are shooting stars, because I could really use a wish right now.
4/25/10 Spring Training, Season Awaiting
Reading the newspaper, hoping to find the section of baseball,
longing to see that article, about last seasons bullpen clearing brawl,
glancing over the page, reading the daily notes for my team,
hoping for a successful season, and for winning to be this years theme.
First pitchers and catchers, then finally the rest,
next comes spring training games, then the rookies start to impress,
pitchers start to get higher pitch counts, starting lineups begin to take shape,
fans start to awake, watching baseball for an escape.
The weather starts warming up, Little Leagues have their parade,
the countdown begins fresh, as Spring training begins to fade,
Opening Day is just around the corner, its logo starts to taunt,
this season I am awaiting, and the full diamond is all I want.
