The Paddock BootsMy paddock boots lay outside the doorThe Paddock Boots8 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
They had been torn, banged, and dirtied
And the scent of a farm came with them too;
The smelly sweat and animals followed me around like I was their leader
I'd only wear them at the barn
A clop clop clop came from underneath them with every step I'd take
And a small trail of mud grew as I walked
From riding horses to cleaning stalls,
I have never washed them
Every particle of dust and dirt had a meaning,
All the things I've don't in these have been caked onto them for me to recall
My boots were my scrapbook
After thinking to myself for some time, I went to the door and pulled them in,
Grippin
In the morning...BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!In the morning...7 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
The alarm goes off, it's only 5: 30.
It's pitch black out, and my room's cold.
I slip into some clothes,
And shove my schoolwork into my backpack.
Putting it on my back, it quickly weighs me down.
Coming down the stairs,
I smell breakfast cooking.
It rumbles my stomach, and makes my mouth water.
Laying my bookbag on the floor by the door,
I sit down at the table.
The old wood of the chairs creak as I adjust my weight.
I began to shift my weight around on purpose,
Making a beat out of the creaks.
My mom however told me to knock it off - as she laid down my plate.
Looking at the clock - I only have

Hungry and Bored
I was debating on stopping-by
My God those lines...
I still pulled into your lot
Found a spot in line.
Chicken and soda.
Extra waffle fries.
Damn the thought of it
Brought a tear to my eye,
The taste is just so divine.
Then I checked my facebook
As I waited for food.
An article on the Huffington Post,
Informed me that this line consisted of mostly homophobes.
5 million dollars donated to Gay-hate groups.
So I went next door
To get some Taco Bell.
No hate tacos
Sounded just as good.

Not you.
Beauty is defined by
How you act.
Not by the number on the
Scale.
Starving doesn't work.
Purging doesn't work.
Pills don't work.
The girl you see
In the mirror is
Perfect
Just the way she is
Now.
Don't get upset because
You don't match up
To the media's
Expectations.
Cutting won't work.
Crying won't work.
Dying won't work.
Remember this:
Society is ugly.
Not you.
