Untitled

I used avoid deep thought like an empty restaurant, 
not out of stupidity, 
but a canny resolve to be happy.  
Those days are over now.  
I quickly learned
the deeper thought is,
 the taller it becomes. 
As my young teenage life continues on 
it's pointless journey I ponder on how all this came to be.  
Life is always uncertain. 
No one knows what's in there. But now 
my life is everywhere, 
I would just like to breathe and sleep and get all the rest I could. 
I wake up at four in the morning some 
days just thinking about my thoughts and stare blankly into thin air. 
Not sure what I am looking at but I know for a fact I am in 
my own world. 
Those times I am just inside my head just thinking about what is ahead.
I am a boy raking through the ashes,
 a boy struggling to find 
embers of life in the bottom of a bottomless fireplace.

Dreams

We all dream.
We dream about life,
We dream about adventure.
We dream about love, hate, and growing up.
We dream about responsibilities.
We dream about our future's,
We think about our past's
My dream's.
My dream's are about you,
I dream about snowboarding with you.
I dream about long walks on cold nights,
I dream about canyon drives and canyon vibes.
I dream about camping because, just the thought
of sitting around the fire with my best friends 
talking about our future's gives me the chills.
I dream that this will never end because all
I can dream about is you.
I dream about marriage and the family I will soon have.
I dream about you, I know it's high school and this is 
"puppy love" but dammit! I LOVE YOU, and I hope this
never ends.
