Tai's Poem

Tai’s Poem

I wanna get lost

So would you think about runnin with me?

Take off anywhere in the world

And since we’re from the city

Thinkin waterfalls in the jungle

The world is our playground

As long as we’re remaining humble

We can sneak off

And hide below the radar

In this fake world where they lie

All to become a star

But we shouldn’t do it cause all we need is you and me

Ditchin all the maps in the river we don’t need fluently

To speak

Language of love is really all we need

No blogs or facebook

Turn off the computers

Throw the cell phone in the trash

You thinkin that you could do this?

I wanna feel what it’s like to be real

I wanna

Hear voices

I wanna know fear

I wanna feel my heartache

When I ain’t got ya near

I wanna know what it’s like to go

Where nobody knows us

Ain’t afraid at night because I’m holdin you closest

Contemplate mistakes in the past

No thanks

Infatuated with the future

Going with no brakes

I wanna live in the moment place our fingers on the map

Make up different names they won’t know whenever asked

Saturated in this love

So even when in the darkest

Know when to go slow

While society races

Temptation at every turn

Relationships getting burned

Untouched from our love

We’re taught to be grateful first

So while I step away please think of the next spot

We can fill up at this station or rest for the night and stop

Doesn’t matter what we do

Our rule

Can’t follow clocks

We can hide out in the open

Just promise that we’ll stay lost

I Love My Wife!!!

A New Chapter Begins

A New Chapter Begins

I want to write a poem but I can't

Wishin to be inspired

Evil thoughts have me trapped

Talkin to myself

Sayin nothin but trash

Needin to step away

Maybe later come back...

45 minutes later...

Yo Yo Yo!

I'm ready to go

Took my dogs for a walk

While I studied the road

A decision comin up

Straight, Left, or Right

Never one to give up

Called my wife for advice

I said I might go crazy

If my talent goes unnoticed

Hopin to get back

The same respect that I've shown em

In many ways I got it good

I went from hopeless to focused

Finally makin money it's funny

When I was broke-st

No fear of takin turns

If even leadin to night

I see what's Straight, I see what's Left

So looks like I'm goin Right

And A New Chapter Begins...

Miss Laura Bell

This girl Named Laura Bell
Gotta story to tell
Can relate to many women
So I’m hopin this helps
Born on New Years Day
At first kept to herself
Time passed hard times
Tried reachin for hands
It hurt bad
When she looked for friends
But no one reached back
Attention she needed
Started seein this man
Thinkin he would listen
Started seein his plan
Tried for rape but escaped
This day thankful he hadn’t
Movin on respect is key
Though seems
She kinda lost it
An outlet for her rage on stage
She saw in drama
Built a character real world
Couldn’t see it any longer
She hid behind the plot
Hid behind the trauma
Hid behind a guy disguised 
Who really tried to harm her
Ridin in his car the pride
Caused him to flip it
Almost died then!
New appreciation for life
Laughed and called Shorty
Friends favored her height
Now when readin the script
Believe she’s seein it right
No more fear of dreams
That she’s seein at night
A future so bright!
College
Now gave her a face
It gave her a path
Even gave her a place
No more lookin back
Ain’t afraid of the race
She wants to heal people!
Like she wanted so bad
Back in the day but hadn’t
Now tryin 
For chiropractic
They say thank you Laura
As they leave the room
Glad to help you out with this my friend
I hope to see you soon
Happy life will take her
She smiles
It couldn’t break her
Advice she has for ladies today
Don’t let him MAKE you
She screams reach for dreams!
Quit reachin for hell
We wanna thank you for the strength that you gave

A poem I wrote for Kara Micciche... Kara's Law

Kara’s Law

By Tyler Presnell

Fighting for the causes

And then I think why bother

Death is guaranteed

But the kids will live much longer

If we

Clean the streets

Why can’t we see the problems?

Fathers out there like mine

Should never outlive their daughters

So here’s my story

And I hope you listen closely

I died at 17

Long before I was supposed to

My father

Raised me alone but glad he chose to

Have my little baby brother Yubby

I was close to

My dream as a teen

Was to grow and be a medic

Organ donor on my permit 

Dad I’m glad he let me

After I died

Helped others I never knew

Saved lives with my organs

Keep dreaming they do come true

I died soon!

But keeping my hopes alive

Driver saw me though on drugs

Now Dad has to with closed eyes

So wrong!

People need to speak up

The driver killed me but no test

I wasn't reason enough

We need to change this!

And not by dropping dollars

In a bucket use your power

We don’t need this any longer

Please!

Hey World!

My name is Kara

Love music, tattoos and pink

So would you wear some?

I miss my family

And I even miss my friends

I use to hang and laugh with em

But that’s just the way it is

Sad!

Got killed while crossing the street

We looked both ways!

And the driver even saw me

As kids we’re taught

To stand up and say we did this

Then learn as adults of the holes

Hid in our system

The driver caused me to die

But the laws don’t call him killer

I was a mother to my brother

Who buried his only sister

I miss life!

Three weeks before my death

Asked dad for some money

I wanted a pretty dress

He said sweetie please wait one day

I know you’ll get it

My father kept his promise

His sweetie was buried in it

We need help

If Legislation passes Kara’s Law

Make drivers take credit save lives

No matter where you are

Imagine all the families

Demanding nothing but justice

Hoping I’m the last killed

Believe…

Nobody wants this.

Hiked up Daimondhead!!!

My body is screwed up and rebuilt yet it doesn't stop me from enjoying life. Push yourselves!!!!!

Aloha!!!

Lovin life!!!

Listen!!!
