On The Road Advice
By: Tyler Ross
Dear Tyler,
How’s this living in limbo on every single wire? No fun I bet, when you have no control and no answers. Why do you let people treat you the way they do? It’s not fair to you. How many times have I told you to walk away? If it’s not fifty-fifty on a two way road then, they’ve got to go. Don’t waste time on those who won’t give back. These true colors show, but you continue to run their track. Step off! You remain hurt all the time. You know inside what’s divine. Don’t waste all this time. It’s simple when the chase is equal. Stop looking for a chance at the sequel. In the end people will be people. Forever be you and if you are important to them, they will seek you. You’ve done enough. The ball is in all their courts. Enough is enough. Be free and expect less. What’s right will be there and that’s the perfect test. Let it go or you’ll be a mess.
Sincerely,
Jess from East to West

Friends Cleanse
Friends Cleanse
By: Tyler Ross
Evaluation. Reputation. I’m sick of all this pointless frustration. I’m a bottle of pressure about to explode. A man around such children's games single-filed all in a row. I want to take this domino effect and watch it come crashing down. I’d rather swim away than tread your water and drown. It’s evident times change and I’m ready to move on. You can drop the act or join along. For this is my swan song. My journey will have more loss, but it will experience gain. There’s a whole world of you. Do I need more to explain? Times always change and I wish you wouldn’t disappear, but that’s not my choice. My mind is finally in the clear. Smiling from ear to ear.

Guarded
Guarded
By: Tyler Ross
Take a look in my eyes. Don’t like what you see. That’s fine because you can’t get to me so easily. I have very strict morals and respect for myself to not run around recklessly. I’d rather wait it out on the shelf. I’ll remain grounded and play it smart. You’ve got to earn my trust with truth from the start. No playing games and leading me on. I take no interest in those who pressure me along. I’m guarded can’t you see. A free spirit just me being me. What you get is what you’ll accept. Patience is key for the first step. I believe in a balance. I believe in an honest effort. You can take it or leave it. But I’ll leave it, just protecting myself. If you feel I owe you. You’ve got me all wrong. Intentions are important and if I can’t trust you then move along. I’ve grown up with firm values. I plan to sustain. I don’t expect you to be one in the same. Show your consideration. Be aware I’m not like everyone else. This is not a game. This is not a game. You can abuse my name. You can try breaking me down. But I am a rock and always guarded. The same Sheriff remains in town. I’m guarded can’t you see. A free spirit just me being me. What you get is what you’ll accept. Patience is key for the first step.

My Fallen Friends
My Fallen Friends
By: Tyler Ross
“Come follow me,” the voices echoed down the sleek hall. I can’t keep up with you all. You’re leaving me in the back, confused, forgotten and the feeling of being insignificantly small. What ever happened to my friends? The consistent faces now expire like years worth of trends. “Please continue, you can count on us.” I’ve heard that before. What more can we discuss? “Our alliance can’t be compared.” Then, If I mattered so much, why aren’t you still there? Plagued with the fallen of friends. The disappearance never reasons or amends. My reaching out is endless. Except there isn’t another side. So I pretend and I push on in hopes to not be buried inside. “Are you coming? We want you to tag along.” See, that’s the point. You never really wanted me to belong. I will not be your social security. I will not be a temporary convenience. Time’s up! For I don’t need this. “Your loss. We are closing the door, Ross.” I can handle that with all cost. A flavor of the week or a genuine everlasting bond. It’s like choosing between warmth or the winter with less for so long. I could use greater friends. The kind to remain close. My means to an end. The door shut and I stand alone. No light. No one else home. I thank those who shield the dark. A part of my circle engaging the few sparks. But still, more will leave. No explanation will not prevent me from pushing on. Still searching for a close knit to not believe. I’ve been plagued with fallen friends. My means to an end.

Lone Wolf
Lone Wolf
By: Tyler Ross
I sat at my desk today and thought to myself; I would give anything to be loved as much as I love, but I found no reply. I bet somewhere out there, she replied, "I'm right here and I'll see you soon for we will be together." There came a sigh. Relief was present or was it a sign of uncertainty? The days move along quicker and the urge multiplies around constant unfinished thoughts, which grasp and contract my feelings into hyper-drive. I need to know. I need to know. I will not settle and I will not go with the flow. Life is too easy when you let yourself go. My determination is like the final round of a competition. It’s not over till an outcome is known and in full restoration. Forget everyone I say as I do it myself. No one will hold these hands in this quest to help myself. She knows where she ought to love. She’s held on for so long. The questions won’t be answered until I go over and above. Break my curiosity into the control of my heart’s passion of love. We need action. This will is unbreakable as you see in me no hesitant for a reaction. Only the right love from the opposite, I deserve. Guaranteed satisfaction within us all. I refuse to let go and call it quits by these distances. I refuse to bow out or throw in the towel. But, I call you out on this forever. This lone wolf will call you out...forever.

Please wake me up when it’s over. This madhouse I’m living inside my skull. These people act like hypocrites and portray themselves as too big and full. Timing is everything, but would you agree you can’t divide it right? I’ve wasted all the breaths believing everything will have a brighter day with the masses too. Its not true. Come out from under there or from behind that monstrous wall. Its way too steep and my ambitions are far too used up to further fall. I’ll swallow my pride and go back to living my life with or without you. Keep pushing me away. The more and more of you I collect in the end, never stay anyway. You say I’ve changed, but forget my vocals are the same. You say I’m overbearing and the fact of me being realistic places me under the weight of blame. I can’t win. I’m always going to go against the grain. Too selfish. Too self-righteous making all the rules. You do. I know I’m not perfect and sorry I like to receive a rhythmic beat. Excuses are easy for all of you because it’s easier to walk away in retreat. Be an adult, give back and grow the hell up. Accept responsibility and respect the full glass given in your drinking cup. If you can’t be fair then, don’t play at all. What you project out will surely return in your favor like an echo down a hall.

A Seven Year Burden
A Seven Year Burden
By: Tyler Ross
“And so, your time is now," he said. That wishful thinking makes you brain-dead. Clear your mind and expect less. Your vulnerability put to the test. Careful now, that’s too much thinking. You’ll fall overboard and continue sinking. Hopelessness or fearlessness. Use your voice to relieve your stress. “I don’t believe you’ve learned a thing. Always settling for anything.” Oh, is this how it will always be? Way behind. Struggling. Reliving this apathy. “Tell me you’re giving up on me.” A lost cause. Hesitant pause. Never learn. Ignore the applause. Self motivation. Acclimation. Confidence. Silly frustration. The change began. Suddenly a new plan. He could feel the heart in his chest. A little patience honors progress. “Have you ever felt so well?” He kept at it and before he knew it. A nice trophy, he wouldn’t sell. Sometimes, he said, “It’ll get the best of you.” Stay true and move along. Distance yourself. Keep calm. For you’re becoming a man. A man, who isn’t afraid to belong.
