"Strut"

Don't be something you're not. Be happy with who you are and never back down from a dream, anything is possible...go above and beyond. STRUT. YO. STUFF.

They say I'm a simple dream
Only good for what they believe.
Down, praying on my knees
I'm more then what America sees.

Stuck inside
No end in sight.
Survive on my own
In the daring night.

Fight it alone
My life's delight.
Blinding light
My dreams well in sight.

I'm doing just fine
Givin' all I've got.
Won't talk for talk
Watch me strut my walk!

"Leaving You"

After finishing my first year of college, saying goodbye to my roomate and hello to summer was a bittersweet moment. We became great friends by randomly being selected to live together and I couldn't love her or miss her any more.....this writing is inspired from our new friendship.....

Stuck to these quiet walls
Trying to hear your call.
Whispers hope but tho' you're gone
I still sing to you, the sweetest song.

Can't think your not around
Skies start to fade, darkened sound.
Walking through the rain
Scatter my mangled thoughts.

Miss how you're not around
Nothing can replace your sound.
Warmth once there can't be found
Your laughter beats through the ground.

How I know you're never gone
Through thick and thin, never done.
Embrace the strives, bring me down
Take me, like the speed of sound
