War Hero

He doesn't do it for the money or for the glory. He is providing for my future and the future for our family. An American soldier, he knows the sacrifice because freedom doesn't come cheap or free. He will were those colors and salute the flag with pride and will make it safe tonight. An American soldier. Always fighting for the weak and giving strength to those that have none. He doesn't fight because he is filled with hate for what is in front of him. He fights because he loves what stands behind him. Fighting foreign or domestic on the front lines so that I may sleep tonight with no fear. He's an American soldier.

Never Growing Up

We stayed up late, late into the morning and late into the evening. Believing it was our way to stay forever young. We sang to songs we didn't know the lyrics to and kissed boys that were nothing but strangers. We traveled around our small college town and looked for trouble. Rebels in our own right and looked for ways to stay forever young. Falling in love every other weekend and heartbroken on our days off. Here's to never growing up. Friends and enemies in just a few hours but we always have each others' backs.

Those people were so drunk on coffee and cocaine that they could barely see straight. Dancing so that they looked insane.  Once on a high and once on a crash.
