Cut Grass in September

Sounds of the locker room echo in my head
The screech of tape being wrapped around an ankle
Clicking of each helmet being fastened ready for battle
Our boys are ready for the fight of the night
All the sweat, all the pain, all the hard work
Tonight is payday
Across the field are the challengers with no names, and no faces
The sun begins to disappear, allowing the shadow of the press box to devour the field
And not it is time for the battle of guts for the glory of the Friday Night Lights

Whistles blow and bodies go flying
Fans cheer and in the distance babies are crying
Coaches yell and players grunt
Battling to make the other team punt
We all use this time to get together and enjoy the night
As sons, grandsons, or even great grandsons take on the fight
Quarters tick by with no ones favor in mind
And the halftime show ends allowing the kids to return to the grind
Back to blocking, tackling, passing, and doing what they can to win
Because the margin of victory can be very very thin
No matter who wins each side gives it all they got
But for those Seniors that lost, tonight was their last shot
So next time you see a coach or player wandering in town or the mall
Say hello and thank them for dedicating, to you the fan.....that Victory Ball!!!

A minds tear

I speak to you and you glare at me
What is it your thinking
I show you something new and show you how it works
What is it your thinking
I express a happy and cheerful hello as you come near me
What is it your thinking
Today you might show me something new
What is it your thinking
We talk about life's new creations and technological advances
What is it your thinking
Your life has become one circle of smiles and cries
What is it your thinking
You look at me and say.......your exactly what I was thinking!!!

The One?

Reach in and help yourself to all I got
Caress my back as our bodies begin to get hot
Glare into my eyes and I will know how you feel
Looking at your skin, your clothes I begin to peel
Thread by thread exposing your beauty and soul
My nose engulfed by the scent you release for every pore and hole
I begin to taste your lovely heart
And excited I get as I begin to rip you apart
I devour your essence and the seconds go flying by
As you lay back in ecstasy and scream, WHY
Lifting you up to glare into my eyes, you lock in and your questions are gone
Because as I roar with vengeance you know that all these years I was who you were looking for...THE ONE!!

Am I here for you?

If you really knew me,

you would have said hello when I walked past your fundraiser
you would have said "YES" when I asked you out for every middle school dance
you would have told me more than I wanted to know about your childhood
you would have looked over that beer can and watched me shoot hoops
you would have remembered you told me about that mistake 3 times already
you would have taken my advise and stayed with me in Angelo
you would have allowed yourself to love me with all MY heart
you would have been the one to help that puppy, just to make me happy
you would have let me go..........
