Can you blame me?


Looking toward the future
But you ask me to stay put
Weighing the consequences
You're talking inches
I constantly need a foot

So tired of the hot and frigid
Ready to just move on 
But something keeps me waiting
We're beyond the introduction
And the conclusion is foregone

Sometimes, it feels like games
You're so Guess Who?
We've skipped my turn
And I'm all out of guesses
Not in the mood for Clue

I told myself I love you
But that means nothing
You say you want to love me fully
Are you able to commit?
I bet you're bluffing

And can you blame me?
For being so over this
You're so quick to quit
Give my love away
Cease and desist 

Can't wait any longer
This is my final plea
I can't sit still anymore
I'm back on my own feet
Can you blame me?

I hate your weed, your pot, and any other names you call it

I hate it. I hate everything it represents. I hate the smells it comes with. I hate how much it changes people. Most of all, I hate how people think it's no big deal. So, to all you pot zombies out there, this one's for you. To all the family and friends (that I currently know of) smoking pot, it sickens me that I know the strength each of you hold and yet you consistently choose to be weaken by such a nasty, mind-melting habit. Save the excuses, too. I've heard them all. Don't try and defend your actions either. You can't. It seems everybody has some kind of excuse as to why they smoke or use marijuana, with self medicating and recreation among the most common. I plan to address each excuse individually. Another thing most users do is try and defend their usage with non-facts and half-assed explanations. These, I also plan to address.

This Fall Leaves have changed And so have we Couldn't count the colors Beauty lost on me We've come so long Fought so hard I need to reconsider Clearing the yard This needs to work Because we're worth it Exactly the way we are We're perfect And if we shatter Both left scarred I won't give up, I promise To collect every shard Because I've chased you Through life's trees All our good times Can't be memories Winter's coming And summer has gone I've settled with the facts The conclusion I've drawn With the time that's passed Through life's seasons I'll always need you You're my reasons And after thinking Colors always fall in threes There's reds and yellows And there's you and me

  Where I'm At Maybe I'm depressed I'm spiraling Trying to smile through I think I'm making a mess Maybe it's just me I'm stressed With all these changes Feeling to an excess Maybe I'm just searching For answers I should avoid To questions I think I'm supposed to suppress And I confess I cannot blame you It's all gotten so crazy It's all so hard to digest And someday I hope we make it So we can look back At all our progress But, nonetheless I'm sorry I think It's just where I'm at
