Never Stop

Never Stop

Too many chances causes false desire,

Too many battles causes soldiers for hire,

Never stop waiting,

Never stop hating,

Too many prophets causes too many liars,

You lust walked into the point of no return,

You just watched everything you love burn,

Never stop trying,

Never stop dying,

Our friends have fallen, now when are we gonna learn?

You blindly follow your master’s instruction,

You blindly create your own destruction,

Never stop lying,

Never stop crying,

You honor greed, and that’s the cause of corruption,

You only help when you can help yourself first,

You only help when you feel coerced,

Never stop pleading,

Never stop bleeding,

Give a man power, and his soul becomes cursed,

Down on your knees, you’re bound to feel daunted,

Down on your knees, you bound to be haunted,

Never stop slighting,

Never stop fighting,

You did your crimes and now you’re one of the wanted,

These endless crimes we’ll ever repeat,

These endless crimes we’ll never defeat,

Never stop yearning,

Never stop burning,

This war is closed, we’ll never retreat,

Never stop waiting, never stop trying,

Never stop hating, never stop dying,

Never stop lying, never stop pleading,

Never stop crying, never stop bleeding,

Never stop slighting, never stop yearning,

Never stop fighting, never stop burning,

Just never stop

The LOTR Project

So, last night I tried watching all three extended versions of “Lord of the Rings” at one time. Why, you ask? Just to say that I did, and ultimately because I can. We started the first one with my entire family and my girlfriend by my side. Halfway through, we had to take her home. When we got home, we started the second part after we made some popcorn and coffee. By the end of the first, my brother wanted to go to bed, but after much persuasion and convincing, I got him to stay up for at least the second one. About halfway through the second movie, My family all went to bed, and I was alone. I fell asleep about an hour into the third one, at 6:00AM.

Although, this little project failed, I did learn a great deal for the next time I try something like this. First off, We should have started earlier rather than at like 8:30PM. Second of all, By the middle of the second one, I was pretty much running on popcorn and coffee, so keep a snack around and drink coffee. Thirdly, when everyone else went to bed, it got really boring, so do this with friends. Possibly throw a 24- hour party.

Watching all three LOTR movies at once starting at 8:00PM probably wasn’t the brightest idea I’ve ever had, but one of the funnest. I will try to do it again (hopefully with friends this time,) and actually finish all three. Maybe I could throw an all- night party or something. Maybe I could do the same thing with the Die Hard movies, maybe even Harry Potter. Of course, I’ll try with Star Wars eventually.

Ok, that’s it for now, This is JR, signing off.

The Snake

The Snake

One warm summer’s eve I was out,

Walking on a lone street; sounds without,

I was alone on this street,

The only noise was my own two feet,

On the side of the road, I saw a light,

This light had no origin; it gave me a fright,

This light seemed to pull me in,

As I got closer, I saw a figure, tall and thin,

This figure was a large snake,

I began to question if I was awake,

This snake had eyes that glowed like fire,

I stared into his eyes, dead and dire,

Like swords were his fangs,

He whipped his tail, and on the ground, banged,

This snake had something for sale,

This snake was selling dreams, lifestyles, anything to my avail,

I said, “sure, anything that’s gonna get me off,”

I walked away, proud of my scoff,

But that snake just stood there and smiled,

But the light pulled me back like a child,

And I bought from the snake,

Not worrying about a mistake,

I met the prisoner of my own device that day,

Now I grieve in heartache until nature’s decay,

I had the freedom to live how I wanted,

To take what I wanted to take, undaunted,

As the snake just stood there,

I bought without fear,

And that decision I forever regret,

That purchase I can never forget,

But we all buy from the snake sooner or later,

The light, a single- minded dictator,

To draw us to the Snake’s irresistible offer,

Waiting to show you what’s in his coffer,

He showed me love, he showed me bliss,

He showed me anything I could not resist,

And the snake just stands there, smiling, waiting,

For his next customer, His trap he is baiting,

There is no hope when you see the snake,

He’ll sell you anything you’re willing to take,

But money is not his price,

His hunger, money can not suffice,

His price is your soul,

For him to corrupt and make black as coal,

Weight Loss

So, I’ve recently gotten into losing weight, mainly for my girlfriend, karate, and wrestling.  Trust me, it’s a killer. I’m taking so many pills and supplements I feel like I live in a pharmacy. The thing that I think is the best part is working out. I mostly lift weights, sometimes I do cardio, but mostly I hit the heavy bag after lifting. My family and I go to a club called Fitness 19. It is usually packed, which my dad hates, but I don’t mind. After working out, I take a whey protein with L- glutamine . I’m also taking fat loss pills, it’s a 4- pill stack that burns the fat. I’m also going to start a diet. Dieting is the worst part, especially when you have a mother that won’t stop buying the junk food, and no healthy foods. A major problem is that one of the staple foods when you’re on a diet is eggs, and I absolutely HATE eggs!  As of two night ago, I weigh 231. I’m going to keep track of my weight- loss on this site and I’ll post a weekly blog of what’s going on weight- wise.
