Against My Will

You know those amazing people? That give you compliments and just make your day by being alive? Those people you have a crush on but never admit it?

I was holding on to letting go
Too busy being alone to notice you
I never thought you would actually
Sweep me off my feet,
Drag me to the castle, against my will,
Made me your princess and promised me you'll forever be my prince

Against my will,
You gently drag me to the center of the floor
Against my will,
You made me feel something I had never felt before
Against my will,
I got lost inside your mysterious, sweet brown eyes
Against my will,
Your smile made me smile
Against my will
I said I Do



The Promise of A Best Friend

Inspired to make this poem because of best friends. Best friends are amazing. And it sucks when you don't have one. When you're pretty lonely, but you still make it through.
I miss my best friend. Enjoy my crappy poem!:)

If if you fall, I'll carry you
If you cry, I'll cry, too
If you're happy, I'll be happy, too
If you jump, I'll jump, too.
I'll follow you and lift you from the dark
I promise you, we'll be alright

Not the girl I use to know,
Tell me everything you've done,
Tell me what you've become
I'll try to make it better,
Or at least, to keep you together
Don't fall apart just yet,

It's okay, I'm ashamed of what I've done
Of what I've become
I try to keep it together,
I can't fall apart,
Take my hand,
I promise you,
I promise you on everything I have
I promise you on everything I don't have
I promise you, we'll make it through.

It's been a long time,
You've changed,
And I've changed, too.
Yet still, no ones happier
Than I am for you

No one knows me better
You came into my life
At my worst time
I was a wreck
You sat down and said

"It's okay, I'm pretty messed up, too
If if you fall, I'll carry you
If you cry, I'll cry, too
If you're happy, I'll be happy, too
If you jump, I'll jump, too.
I'll follow you and lift you from the dark
I promise you, we'll be alright"

As A Result

As a result of three weeks of doing nothing productive, my poetry has gotten worse than ever. Not only am I now not inspired, when I am inspired I cannot find the correct words to express myself. It get's quite irritating. Another thing that is horrible, I haven't read a book in three weeks. That's like, whoa.

The only productive thing was watch three seasons of "The Mentalist" and watch old episodes of "Scrubs" and "Criminal Minds". I have to say, I'm in love with "The Mentalist", Jane is so adorable, he is very much childlike and yet so wise. Another great character is Lisbon, oh, she's a hero. She's amazing. The Mentalist rocks my socks off. Check it out. Seriously, and then help me figure out who Red John is.

Seriously you guys, check out "The Mentalist". You won't regret it.

Expectations

Expectations coming at me left and right
Scared to fail,
Pressured to perfection
Everything must be complete with no mistakes
Give up everything that matters, its now gone,
Being forced to be someone you're not
I'm sick of all these expectations

I want to quit, but I want to make you happy
I want to give up, but I want to make you proud
I want to leave, but I want your acceptance
I try, I really do but there comes a time...I need a break

Scared to fail,
Pressured to perfection
Everything must be complete with no mistakes
The cycle begins once again
And I'll fulfill these expectations

Because

I want to you make you happy
I want to make you proud
I'm sick of all the expectations coming at me left and right

Stupid Boy

I hate how you make me feel
I hate how you undo me,
A girl made of steel
Stupid mouth, please shut up
Don't give me away
Don't betray me, we had an agreement!
There you go babbling and stuttering
And then you leave

I hate how your perfect
I hate how you see through me
I hate when you sit next to me,
I get all weird, all jibbery, all stupid
A girl made of steel,
And then you leave

I hate how much I want you
I hate how I can't breathe
I hate you so much,
A girl made of steel
You don't know anything, do you?
You don't know how much I want to hold your hand
You don't know how much I try to be steel around you
You don't know how much I hate you
You don't know how much I love you
You don't know I'm leaving tomorrow

I hate how you come in and say "Hey girl, how you been?"
I hate how it's obvious we both want each other
But we still don't see it, we're still blind,
Stupid heart, shut up.
I'm a girl made of steel

I'm leaving tonight and I still hate you
My plane leaves in an hour
Stupid boy, you should've tried
I'm not all steel, you see another side of me
You undo me, make me someone else
A girl made of steel

There you were in the airport
You hugged me close and I couldn't breathe
You kissed my cheek and said "Girl, I'm sorry"
Stupid boy, I love you so much
I nod and smile, tears rushing out
You wipe them away, crying yourself
"You're a girl made of steel, I know."
You're eyes saying everything unsaid
And then you left
You left a girl made of steel undone and confused
Stupid boy.

Why I Don't Like Cats

Alright, if you know me, then you do know I don't like cats. A lot of people often ask me,
"Brenda, why don't you like cats? They're adorable!" I don't think so. Nu-uh. I think cats are plotting to kill me.

Seriously.

I had a cat once, she was adorable and whatnot. Until I found out she was plotting to kill me. Okay, okay, don't call me crazy just yet. Look, she brought me dead animals. That wasn't a gift. That was a warning.

Also, after she use the litter box she kicked excessive amounts of of kitty litter, often ending everywhere. You know what that was for? Burying bodies.

Cats are just plain creepy. I mean, hiding out and watching me. What are you, Edward Cullen or something? I tell you, cats want to kill me. All of them. I recently visited a friend and she had a cat, his name was "Prince". Stupid Prince, I was petting him and he BIT me. What is up with that?

I don't know about you guys, but I'm sticking with dogs from now on.
