People say
\nalcohol is a depressant.
I don't believe them.
\nLife
\nis
\na
\nDepressant.
It's amazing
\nthat
\nwhat Chance can do
\nwith
\none try,
\nYou
\ncouldn't do with a
\nthousand.
I don't want
\nto
\nbe able
\nto
\nbuy all of my dreams
then I would have no dreams left.
\nAnd,
\nto be honest with you,
\nI'm not that happy with reality.
It seems to have
\ncome
\nto the point
\nwhere
\nthinking can be eliminated
\nas a
\nreason for
\naction.
More so, it can be said,
\nthinking is the cause
\nof inaction.
You don't do something
\nbecause you
\nthought
\nabout doing it.
You do something
\nbecause you
\nstopped
\nthinking
\nabout doing it.
Getting a
\njob
\nis like
\ngetting a
\ngirlfriend.
It is very hard to get a good one
\nbut,
\nonce you do,
everyone wants to go out with you.

Her eyes,
\n \t\ta tranquil blue;
\nHer hair,
\n \t\ta peaceful brown;
\nNo feature on her was amiss,
\nAnd nor could one be found.
Beauty itself
\n \t\t was unleashed,
\nUpon
\n \tthis amazing creature;
\nNature took her time with her,
\nAnd perfected every feature.
Her lips,
\n \t the color,
\n \t\t\t the perfect form.
\nHer face,
\n \t the perfect frame.
\nOne look at her and I knew,
\nThat I would never be the same.
Two Idiots
\nmeet
\nin the night.
They have a
\nconversation
\nand walk
\naway.
Both of them think they are
\nsmarter than
\nthe other.
I suppose that I would
\nwant
\nmore out of life...
If this was
\nall
\nthat I thought I was going to
\nget.
