Best Just Because Poems

IT’S JUST BECAUSE YOU STOPPED


Thoughts are your existence, your happiness, and your sorrows

They were your past; your now, and your every tomorrow

You have manifested with thought, your life so far

You have thought your way to who you are

Now ask yourself what you want from here

See...

You were loved once 
just because
but in defiance of your lot
perhaps in spite 
learned to dance, love again

Think it's hidden
in diamond's luster
or hereafter
not all the smiles 
nor outpour of laughter

Educated, ready to reach 
the brass ring's test   
understanding even less
of life's best ...

Oh the woe, for woe is me,
I said, "I do" to a teacher-to-be!
I tried to marry my best friend,
Now strapped to him, I stand condemned.

I support him with my soulless jobs,
Counting beans with business snobs.
He sacrificed much time, unpaid,
Which I picked up and played the...

I need you
just because
my life seems
full when you’re
around
My days are
filled with light,
your image owns
my nights

My life is
full, more like
complete, for you
have filled my
void
My empty pain
replaced,
You’ve filled that
empty space

I think about you
just because
you flood my
thoughts with 
joy
I think about
your face,
Your eyes, your
smile, your grace

These imageries
and thoughts...

If I can drive, I do not walk.
I no more write letters; by cell phone I talk.
I sometimes hide dirt under the rug.
Most things in my house I do not unplug.
I like my clothing permanent pressed,
and I go to bed sometimes not undressed.
Fun things I...

Just because I chose, not to complain
That didn’t mean I felt no pain
Just because I listened, to the breeze
That didn’t mean winds blew with ease
Just because you held grudges,on your finger tips
That did mean I gave your hand the slip
Just because I liked the smell...

Just because I'm white
Doesn't mean I am nerdy
Doesn't mean I get straight A’s
And doesn't mean I wear glasses

Just because I’m white
Doesn't mean I’m always angry
Doesn't mean I like mayonnaise
Doesn't mean I don’t like rap

Just because I’m white
Doesn't mean I can’t dance
Doesn't mean I can’t talk...

Just because I said "I do"
doesn't mean that I am through,

through with life before I met you
and the reasons to forget you.

On the night I knelt before you
signing how much I adore you,

it was more than words I uttered
more than sounds casually scattered.

Just because I...

He cheats on me with video games,
Cuts out my voice with music;
The clothes all over the house,
But I'm the one who cleans;
Dishes fill the sink,
They just sit and wait for me;
Just because I said I do?
Level up chump! Tough Love!...

“Just because I’m fat”.

Just because I’m fat…
Doesn’t mean you are all that,
Or that I’ll do aerobics on a mat,
Hey, some fat people are cool, ya heard,
Like Big Boy, Edwin Frank Hoff, the third!

Just because I’m fat…
Doesn’t mean I want to get skinny,
It’s like my home...

~~~
Ostracized
forsaken place
these bars of time
no saving grace
from whence I came
a fence I face
around and round
no end in chase

Just because
I said I do
I'm seldom excused
when postage due

No-one to share
I stand alone
to cheat despair
I scratch this poem
of matters fact
it finds no home
amid your care
dispense of drone
~~~...

Just Because I Said I Do

Oh this war tween man and fem
Makes so many lift the sword
Turn it into poison pen
Telling all is their reward

He done me wrong
She will say
He wasn’t strong 
He had to stray

She left me for another man
I was good, I wasn’t...

Just because I said 'I do'
Doesn't mean I need to stand when I want to use the loo

If its brown flush it down, so the experts say
But if you stand to use the loo please leave the seat where it once did lay

When in a...

Just Because

Just because we are trying to sell ourselves and poetry
Doesn't mean we have to do it for a profit. 
Tell me one famous poet who was trying to make a profit. 
Trying to make a profit becomes a pitfall, obstacle and 
Often removes our...

Just because I said, I do
Does not mean I will
Pick up all my messes 
Wipe up every spill

You know that I'm a slob
But just what can I do
I hope you know I do my best
Trying to please you

And just because I said, I do
Doesn't mean...
