For A Friend by:J.A. Burror

at times you get lost
then out of the blue a friend
comes along and helps you through
shows you the way
leads you
not tells you what to do
but shows you the way
to find a better way
out or in
you stick together
as a true friend
that is bond never to leave your heart
sight in mind
yes in thoughts
you are the same
growing alike with each passing day
and it's only the best you give to one another
fights and disagreements are natural in life
but we blaze right through

I love you by:J.A. Burror

just a quit note to say
Hi, How have you been?

just a thought that came to mind
today as it pasted my by
I recall looking for you and not finding you there

I missed you even more then I thought I could
I seem to have let you in would others weren't allowed
I really get giddy when you call out to me

you are something else
only in the best of ways

even at times we don't see eye to eye
it's so worth it
knowing your option is better then I had visioned

this means more
I said it once no I've said it I don't know how many times
but each Time I meant it
each time I will continue to mean it

I love you
simply put as that
but didn't make it any less hard at first to say to another
I love you
I find myself saying that even without you hear

thank you for being you
I wouldn't change you

Feeling Jaded by:J.A. Burror

jettison feeling you have done to much
feeling jaded
this feeling in me is covering
hiding won't do
I'm left with confronting the issue

head on this could get messy
as I know where the game originated from
this wasn't what you were expecting
this wasn't in your plan

but I'm stronger then you once thought of me
took me for so not who I really am
you wanted me to play follow the leader
but that's not my way

I do my best not to fall into deep
knowing this could have ever happen to me
brings tears but yet
I'm stronger now
could have learned in a different way
but now I'm hear to just say:
I've learned my lesson well
I've grown and I'm so much smarter then before
the you
you thought you knew isn't hear
you think you know me so well

have a drink to this:
you never got to know the real me

if you had
you could never have comforted me
if you had
you wouldn't have been you to me
if you had
you wouldn't have wanted to be with me
because I couldn't see a life together with someone like you
I wouldn't change only to be your door mat

and yet you love to try to get to me
find new ways of pissing me off
this isn't cool for me
but I'm warming up very nicely
without your nagging to try to change me
without the pain of all the drama
without the disgust that I ever looked your way

you wanted to control every beat
can't help but wonder
what was the reason you ever met me to begin with

you played your part so well
it seems I never took you as what you were
I was fouled by you
you really have done your best at playing me
trying to use me as a safety net
when you're the one stabbing me in the back

now that I know you
I can really say I liked it best
when I didn't know about you
never spoke to you
never glanced your way

you wanted me for all the wrong reasons
nothing was ever real
I felt you weren't even there
when you were by my side
your mind was some place else
looking to another is not my deal
but you wanted me to feel the torment

I done buying the crap you give
to me I mean more
then to have to deal with you in this manner

looking past all yo have done to me
I still know I'll get to that point where I'm thankful for the meeting
I'll be thankful not for the hurt you gave
not for the pain you wanted me to feel
but for what you left for me

I feel so much liter
now I'm free of something pulling at my strings  
I have broke the tights
I'm no longer held back in fear on threats
and that is the only big reason why 
because I have gained so much more by leaving you
I have become so much of a stronger person
by never letting you back around me

The Weather by:J.A. Burror

it's gloomy and a bit cloudy
but it's all good
I like it when it's a bit darker
then my eyes don't hurt as the sun burns them
this way I feel I can see strait at ones I meet
not covered behind my shades *sunglasses

it's rainy
I like walking in the rain
as the rain drops fall on me I am reminded of the summer
as a child I loved the rain on a hot summers day
it cooled me down just enough to get through the day

it's cold
I like how the fire warms me from the inside

it's windy
I like how the windy messes with my hair

the weather man says to stay in for next few days
and I'm suffocated without the air above
I need to brake out and feel I should dress the part
I only need to step out and stretch it out
go for a walk to forget my troubles and I'm in a different state
where I can finally exhale from my time locked away
in a house all because the weather man was cruel to me
reporting the weather as it came up to be

Cartoons Do It Best by:J.A. Burror

I was in a state of torment
really couldn't say with must to how I felt
puzzled at thoughts that came to mind
just then I am reminded of childhood
and remembered some of the shows I would watch
it's like you want it to be over
the problem at hand to fix itself
so you can just keep moving on
to the light of each day

I think cartoons do it best
when you're out of it and need to rethink anything
they unscrew there heads only to put them back on right

if you fall down a hole
it leads to a different path to be taken
it's not falling because you're unaccountable for your own actions 
nor that you are incapable of anything else

it's neither one way nor another way
you simply are who you are
that's how I saw cartoons as a kid and loved them
still do but I love anime
it's a bit more grown up LOL
it all can change with any story line
of how innocent one can be

After I Met You by: J.A. Burror

after I met you
all at once my life seemed to have changed
I will tell you just how
you affect me in so many ways

the day we met it was I couldn't say
I can't recall the time of day nor wealthier it was
but I remember clear as can be you spoke to me
at first it was two people sharing in the same thought of mind at that time
we were just finding out about each other
then it changed to wanting to know so much more

days turned into weeks and so on
now I find my self wishing for this never to end
this friendship is so much of a gift
you are a treasure and I see you as such

I guess the need and yearning still gets to me
knowing the you I have been honored to know
you have been a blessing to me
for me I laugh at your jokes
even when you tell me you're not
you are funny to me

I smile when I hear from you
it's uncanny almost like it's ear from ear
when I'm down and feel so low
it's you I find I think about

at times I'm a real mess
really I can't stand up right and then I feel strength from around me
I'd call you an angel but I don't wish to judge you
it's just to me you mean so much then I even could convey

I often times leave words unsaid
and forget about plans once made
I can't seem to get out of a funk I'm in
you pull me out and put my head together
showing me which path to take

you are smarter then me on so many levels
but you never once downed me
how could you when you are so sweet to me
it's as if we are sisters
finding out more about you
knowing how your feelings often show through
your heart beating as it does gives me such joy to know

to know you are alive
it has become a comfort to me
and yes I know the truth as it is
we did not grow up together
we are not real blood sisters
but for me
to me that is you are family to me

cause when I get moody and need to share
yell out about how much I hate
whatever
you listen to my woes
you hear me out and then you help me find my way back
so I get to feel more like my self

feeling I need only to shout in my pillow
you lower the stress level
and cool the air I'm in

when I'm drained for so many reasons
and my heart seems to get filled
whenever I see your words to me

my life wouldn't be the same without you in it
life wouldn't be the same without you in it

you are so dear
you are so loved
and I feel I'd truly have missed out of knowing you if we never met first
life would have been less without knowing you

God Spoke To Me by:J.A. Burror

I was flying and spoke to God
as I smiled God looked at me and said:
  why have you come?
  what's your question?

I asked:
  my life has not always been good but now it is,
  why haven't you helped me?

God looked at me and said:
  did you not have prayer?
  were you not loved?
  why do you not answer me?

but lord I said
  this isn't fair I asked so many times for help
  why didn't you try?

and God spoke
  I did why couldn't you see
  my words, my thoughts, my love I put them all through those all around you
  why did you not see?
  I was there all along

but lord I said:
  I cried
  is that what you wanted?

God said:
  no but you had to
  you needed to learn pain and strength
