Life


We fear the future

And worry about the past

We are stuck in the present

Wondering how it will last

We wish on shooting stars

And hope for a change

We want things to turn brighter

But sadly they stay the same

I really got into poetry in my freshman year of high school when I was going through a tough time. Since then I still do poetry from time to time and feel its a good outlet. I love doing poetry because not only can I get my emotions across on paper, but I can look back at something I created and am proud of. Most of my stuff does also turn out to be a little on the dark side, but nothing too bad. I feel we all have some sort of dark side to us and just hope that others can relate.
