Do you think about me the way I do about you? Do you reminisce about the past we once shared? I await the day when I can hold your hand again and smile because of our love Do you think about me, too?

You were a stranger. A soul far off. I did not know you. I did not know your thoughts, You were but a mystery like all the souls I don't know. But unlike most of them Yours has touched me so.
Before I frolicked with the seniors,                                a Seemed they all so tall and kind.                                    b They held a certain calm demeanor,                               a
The cacaphony of the tape tearing. A moment ago it was there, the next it wasn't. I floated away. Craving one last moment. One last memory.
No one knows her the way I do!   You're right, my love. No one knows me the way you do.  
The ammount of love that I offer is uncomparable to anything you might think.Because, the truth is, that I give my heart to many.And everytime, I surprise myself by finding,There is always more to give.
I remember that day I had heard it many times that day, Someone else had lost time. Who? I wondered. As if it was a broken record, frantically reaching for an answer in my mind.  Who could it be?
In the darkness of my mind, In the fog throughout my world, In the grey rain of my life You are there Like light piercing through the soul, Like whispers of clarity, Like a refuge from the storm
Dear Seniors,  Sometimes instead of putting down your stupid small town That nobody has ever heard about In the depths of Ohio, You should appreciate it.
Dear Seniors,  Sometimes instead of putting down your stupid small town That nobody has ever heard about In the depths of Ohio, You should appreciate it.
Dear best friend,  I already love you. I'm in love with the way you smile when you look into the sky. I adore the little wrinkles your nose makes when you laugh. I love the melody of your voice.
The earth sits, bare. How it wishes for there to be One to bring water to the deserted field. Let the seeds of the beautiful flowers and trees Grow and grow until the bareness can no longer be seen.
Are we broken? Are we nothing? Nothing to you even though we were glue. Attached the joints. I guess glue falls apart at some point. As easily as put together we are we fell over at the slightest breeze.
Another new place; Another new road. Another new school; Another new home.   Each move just the last.   Pack up your clothes; Pack up your shoes. Pack up your books;
Let me tell you a story
Of her heavy mind that cried 
Every night to the moonlight
As she always questioned why.
Let me tell you a
You cannot cry for them, They don’t care. They don’t, And it’s that simple.   She excludes you on purpose, Pushes you away. You thought she was your friend, But I guess you thought wrong.
Dear first friend The moon has orbited the earth about 6 times  Since you’ve been gone I know this because every night I like to think that were walking across the moon As we talked about when we were young
Autumn air cools a townhouse on one mediocre Friday evening. Christmas lights have been -s-t-r-u-n-g- around the   ceiling's perimeter, giving the atmosphere an orange glow. Three friends talk   laugh
I love you with all that I am And sometime’s that’s scary But you say you love me too Even though I’m fucking crazy You are my all
Dear Odalis,
I hope you know this simple fact, And if you don’t by now, I’m gonna say I’m sorry for you, Because all I can say is… Wow.   I sort of hate your face, And your kind-of crooked smile,
The memories that we make, I hold dear to me. They are stories, I like to believe That I will read when I ache for normality. They are tales of my home, A place that is filled with heart-warming smiles
When I saw you I didn't know who you could beWhen I met you I didn't know who you would beWhen I spoke to youI didn't know who you wereWhen you heard meI didn't know you were listening When you made me laughI didn't know I was gaining my best frie

Whenever you're down, my best friend, When you feel as though the world is against you, I'll be right there next to you. And when you feel as though nothing matters, Or that your burdens are too heavy,
I talk When you Don’t have the words, Because I love you.   I listen When you Have news to share, Because I love you.   I smile When you Lack the strength to,
Love isn't always easy, Challenges may come your way. But as long as you hold hand in hand, You will live to see another day.   Everything is up to you, You have your pen to write.
Because I love you…. I will allow you into my heart, I will share my secrets with you, Because I know they are safe with you. I will cry in front of you.. And with you..
I have made you a scarf,
You won’t even grow. You’ve always got tabs, You’re trying to sell but your funds are so low. You’re high when you’re in class, You might not even pass,
We pull eachother close Myself sober, yourself a drunkard comforting me after a recent breakup you hiccup, i smile i feel you breathe, the smell of fireball on your lips
Because I love you I will look out for you I will take care of you I will not hurt you   Because I love you We may argue sometimes We might get angry, but We will always say, “I’m sorry”.   Because I love you You will never be alone You will never
Love you yet I feel I missed my shot  I told you again and again you laugh  But still I can't get you out of my thought  Heart restless searching for its other half  I told you again but then you walked out 
I had waited. For. The rain to stop. But. The sky stayed open. And. It did not seem. Like You would arrive Sadly. Then I found out. That.
I Know You Saw Me. My Body And Mind Were Weak And Fragile My Heart Beating Louder Harder Than A Drum. But We
She took a look at the cold body,  Broken, Bruised, Beaten,  Left for dead, With very little warmth left in her.  A small touch sent heat flooding all over Her body,
I dare not hope 'cause  I know it can't happen Dreams aspired,  Broken, shattered. I want to go back home  where we loved each other Sure, money was tight  but we did all right
As I stand there amazed Awe-Struck, and stargazed Sitting and Staring I get lost in those eyes She's so beautiful, words can't explain, she is my prize In every moment I think of her
You do not deserve to be mocked. You are worth more than that.   People do not get to take your success from you. You earned that.  
Friends By: William Pia   School, we mostly see it as making friends, Spending time with them daily in classes. Every thirty minutes of lunch extends,
Our Love was like that of paper. In the beginning it was Weak and susceptible to tear. But as our bond grew stronger, Our paper folded, Still vulnerable but unbreakable. 
The light in the dark that surrounds me To look at my flaws and love me anyways  My friends, my family, those forever beside me I love you because...
Love is the conjoining force that adorns the souls, Love is the pendulum swing of reciprocity. It is the balancing act of Harmony that follows an “ I do”. It is the laughter lunging from the mouths of best friends.
Family isn’t confined to 6 lettersIt’s all encompassingPieced together with blood and timeAnd I findThat the one’s who want to stayWill.
In this life, we are taught to feel as though we need to be filled to continue to flow. The words of our loved ones can  encourage our growth,  but what happens when that isn't necessarily so?  
Remember When we first met Darkness like a cloud Suffocating me with a chain. A prisoner With an unknown sentence. You stepped in then, 12:19 // smile. You said "Hello"
A friend just asked me If I like anybodyAnd that one question Brought back memories of another time when That question ha
No two strangers as strange as they be will ever as strange, as you, or as me.   We may walk different ways with distance between what we believe, but we might never quite grasp
Because I love you Means asking how your day was Or what you want to eat.   I love you means "I've got you," I'll never let you fall to your feet.   It means something deeper
life often feels bleak you all always make me laugh i don't feel as sad
Ty is the name of a boy who is my friend   that takes me on the occasional adventure. I'll never stop writing about those adventures. He used to live in Springfield, right of Centennial.
I did what you said because you said, "I love you" I didn't hesitate because I believed every word that spilled out of your mouth Yet when I didn't like what you said or did I kept it to myself
Because I love you, You should never fear what life has in store for you. You shouldn’t fear failure, Because in my eyes you’ll always be number one.
for Sofia   Last night you came over Slept over On a school night The next morning We walked in hand in hand And I got looks from my friends
I love you, With this Life. You will be my Wife   I will continually try, Please, do not cry. I will always Love you, & This is True   Even after I die
We are joined at the hip Just like siamese twins. Inseperable, but I don't mind a bit.   You'll always be my go to, Because I love you.
Why have me condemned? At times disdained. They is no joy in loneliness especially without holiness.   In my quest for comfort I always get hurt shedding nothing but tears,
im sitting in my room my back against the wall tears slide down my face thought i gave it my all   i had a friend or so i thought she was my family tried to reassure me
 A couch and a loveseat Watching two friends pass a bong,   and (finally) extending your hand. She holds the bong for you on her leg,   her other hand on the bowl. "All you have to do is breathe."
A humble woe am I With many compassions But no motion for emotion For there is no commotion In this non-amorous notion   A lad, Seeking nothing but the joyfulness In everyday animation.
So I love you But you already knew that I loved you with all of your insecurities and flaws I loved you when you were given praises, the most high I will still continue to love you after we get through this mess
I turn away, from the beauty of the falling sun, hoping I can turn away from you.
She was waiting For that one wish With faded memories Her mind exploded Nostalgia; the only feeling With, she was dealing Many wishes, but Not that person to say
When the summer sets and the last pages are closed put me in postscript.
To have a friend Is all you need To talk to others In order to succeed   I never had that choice To be loved by my peer Simply cause of my voice Others were filled with fear  
You always had a smile full of knowledge and life Different from others at school yet, they treated you like a fool   In the last days of summer the school days were a bummer
Those we love don't go away They walk beside us each and  everyday. Unseen, unheard, but always near, So loved, so missed, so very dear.   Your life was a blessing Your memory a treasure,
Once upon a time A wolf was abandoned by his mother. With no sisters nor brothers, He became a family of one. Days of roaming alone became weeks. Then months. Then years.
Where am I going? Where have I been? Where am I headed? Where have I stayed? Where have I grown? Where have I diminished?
Hickory dickory dock,  Cinderella said "screw the clock". She stayed at the ball, She danced with them all, the women, the men, the short, and the tall. Her gown went from fab, To totally drab,

"Grounded, you can't go out!" I heard, he didn't have to shout. "You can't go to the prom!" I think, he should take that up with mom.   Dad slammed the door shut, off to work
I’ve been lost, wandering around in the dark Silently begging for someone to come Find me. To lead me out of the dark woods Shine a light to show me the path out With a strong hand to keep me from stumbling.
I saw our treehouse yesterday. It was strange seeing it in a state like this. The wood is crumbling, the glass broken, water leaking. I remember when we were young
As the paint-soaked brush lightly glossed the enamel of my nails, I felt the cool purple color brighten up my mood. Until, my mother said, “You’re painting your nails pink?!
Back when we were all friends Back when nobody used to judge each other –  Because of popularity  Or current trends.  
A night in the city T'was when the story began, After a young girl sought  To buy her mother a fan.   The night was shining, Though with limited light, And could still clearly see
Will they ever know how much they mean to me? How even on the hardest days they could make me smile? When I was at my worst when I had no reason to go on, when I was done with the world,
Spoken Intro: “All of a sudden, it’s like you’ve become aware of your own existence, how unwhole you are. And you’re constantly being reborn... Again... And again... And again... And again.
I was once a spoiled child.   Taking everything for granted, I hardly stopped to notice my way of thinking.   Forever complaining, Hardly thanking.  
She is always there for me when I need her the most, She always gives me what I need, and to her I toast. What you did to me, ya she already knows, So be prepared for the show.  
How long will it take you to realize you are fake? Don't you see, people are leaving you alone, doesn't your heart ache? I thought we were friends, but you are just a nasty snake.
I wonder if you think of me During the time in between When I saw you then And I see you again.   Do I linger in your consciousness Like you have settled into mine.
I want to break through your walls
Who are you?
smoking a cigarette is like feeling like you're getting away with something.   a strange collegiate spoke so softly,
Friends are supposed to be forever Or as they say "BFF'S" But that’s not true at all I lost a friend or two along the way All because of a little fight
You show up Blowing smoke rings And making light in the dark Like my all-knowing caterpillar, Full                                                                  Of intelligent euphemisms Cleverly
Boom boom Boom boom She runs a race  She can not win   Love out love in love out Again and again  A pointless feat Yet she pushes, again   Too much the pain
It is knowing you did everything with what you had while still questioning what more you could've done, why you didn't try more, how you could've done better, when exactly you said or did the wrong thing.
In a world full of noise, you are my music.When I was dropped by the wayside, you gave me hope.In a dark world, you are my light.When I was cold, you warmed me up.Even though I go against your word, you still wish me luck.While I was falling down,
I wore my lies  like a second skin  could'nt cover my eyes  as i burned from within  i was never really wise  an cowardess wasn't really my thing  i could never stop the sighs

Hey old friend, I'm glad you're doin fine Thought I'd stop in just to drop a line  Heard you were worried Bout my life Guess you heard people didn't treat me right Hey old friend, did you forget What you did to me, do you regret? Cause though othe
you used to sing to me in our late nights of truths. love songs that made me uncomfortable, drifting me off to sleep.   a sleep that you watched until i woke up, got uncomfortable again.

Where I'm From by Ryan G.   The ground is where I'm from, born out if the dust and dirt. I am from my family, and their laughter and love.
A year ago today I was in a shell I did not know what to say because I felt like Hell.  Broken, hurt, and very sad I looked upon my life I didn't have to be this bad I didn't need this strife.  Over days, and weeks, and months I began to see the l
Only yesterday feeling eight or three, But here I am, turning seventeen. So many changes have happened in the past year,
This year was harder than the rest Had trouble with some classes, but I tried my best. I will never forget the friends I made, Grades will be forgotten, but the memories will never fade.
I found my real friends Marketed an iPad app And stressed for college. (What's new?)
Nothing could break us apart. We'd been friends for ten years.   I never knew a friendship could hurt, but it did, more than anything.   Your words twisted in my head
I think that  I never understood how much I could care, why I love you so much, you frightened me because I couldn't tell where the line was between friends and lovers  
If I died, I’d cry But if I didn’t, then I’d never be alive I think I’m sad sometimes But other times I think that I’m just lying I like to sing out loud about death And feeling bad, and never being their yet
when i first walked into the doors that led to the next chapter of my life (high school by the way) i was a fresh new me who thought i would make the best grades possible and go to harvard but
  the weatherman always lies.     Friends were supposed to bring the sun but took it to another part of town
I couldn’t tell you what I thought at the beginning of this year Every word people said were just words that… Bounced off my ear   I graduated high school with a 4.0 Easy for me, everyone expected me to
I once was found with many of them,  many friends that were fun to be around, fun to talk to, and fun to hang out with. None of them were close though.  I couldn't turn to them when sad, hurt, or alone. 
Tight, close, that's what we were. In our youth, we were always so sure. We laughed and we cried, but we always stayed together. We promised we would be forever.
The future follows behind me with a stern look and a jagged plea As competition constantly stares back at me. In the past year I battled the fists of friend crusades Because of the stabs of pending test grades.  
We were texting like we always did. He joked around with me like a kid. We were very close friends,
The grassy hillside beckons to me I curl up in it’s inviting arms, Only to be awoken by the one’s who pester and pry.
Hey, are you still up I was working until 1am I only cried a little
January cold crept into the air like a thief in the night, But who knew what turning 18 could do? Perhaps it might be met with either fright or delight, Or could it be something completely new?  
Best friends we spend hours upon hours listening talking laughing. You and me it'll always be. Always. Such a loose term. One day changed it all
Best friends we spend hours upon hours listening talking laughing. You and me it'll always be. Always. Such a loose term. One day changed it all
Do you know what a friend is? One who is there for you and cares One who no matter what is there for you   How can you call yourself a friend with the way you act? You scream and shout
Dear world, I wanted you to know That I wasn’t the same like 5 years ago I was a nerd that everyone bullied on There was no one there to tell me to be strong One day I decided to be everyone else
Loud and fast times with friends. Earned the name "The Usual Suspects" Fires burned bright inside and out. This year there are only physical scars and awesome stories to tell  
Holding onto A storm is impossible When lightning stings, Drops falls, Clouds roll, And it hurts to hold on To the rain storm.  
She's from the hometown of astronauts and I'm just the neighbor of a launch pad her eye color should have its own name because they're more beautiful than anything I've ever seen the screen between you and me 
Icy like mint
No Thank You. I don’t want the stress. Senior year, college too No Thank You.  I can’t deal with it. Not all of the work.
She was an artist,  She was a beautiful, lost soul,  Everyone knew she would change the world, Except for her,  She did not know what she would do,  She did not know her potential, 
It isn't often that we sit down and think of the good, The bad is always so pertinent. It would be lovely, if everyone could, Sit down and and think of what's important. Im thankful for my family, and my friends.
I should never have written poetry for you.  I respect that you care for yourself, But I hate that you never learned how to care for others.
I just needed a friend  Dark and dim in the closet No room to breathe I was suffocating No one was able to see  
January started strange Touching, kissing, brand new games Led to silence too loud to hear What a welcome to the New Year Next, February found Losing a friend but gaining all around
For me it was gold But for them its dirt The way they treat The way they speak But whatever it is I doesnt really fit They came along That wasnt too long Both singing a song
I spend my days longing and striving for a perfection,I know I can never reach.I spend my nights planning for the day to come,Making goals I'll never meet.I feel I am accepting of others and their beliefs,Given they respect my own.I'm not very wel
You once had so much faith in me,a flower you said you wouldn’t let wilt

Expression: showing emotions through colour -- Music -- words -- creation. You give other people insight Into your feelings, because Humans Are Social Creatures. When you're healthy and young,
One doesn't have to know for one to understand They just have to listen and be there to hold your hand   It's not too complicated to show them that you care Treat them with respect
Pounds of steel weigh heavy with each disappointment   It seems so hard to pick up and keep going in this reality   Sun rises and falls leaving the sky lonely and wounded  
we stare at the television screen like fire as the five eyed monster eats the rat girl in one loud crunch. to my right he laughs, face stretched, eyes shut. to my left she flinches like she can feel the teeth, like
I want to smile. I want to be happy all the time. I want to have fun with my friends. That does not always happen. Life gets in the way.
Ty and Me.Instantly connected.No matter how scary life may have been,We stick through to the end.Just Ty and Me.
I lounge around, frowning and pouting fretting about the past's improbable effects on the future. I look back into the past as I walk forward, stumbling down on obsticals I could of manuvered.
Having my family and friends by my side always makes me feel alright.
I love you.                                                                                                 Not in a romantic way, but rather in a romanticized way.                                                                                   
We have no need to go to the movies Why take time to eat? Let’s not laugh, chortle, or even talk. All I want
I love the way your weight feels when you lean on me; And when you twitch, And when you cry, I'll hold you close, And stay awake, To kiss your head & protect you from your monsters.
Laugh at family guy My friends and I laugh around pizza happy times never leave 
Old priviliged friend introduced to medicinal, He loses touch then on his hip are mini missiles, He said school was boring so he found a new way to have fun, Rollin with new guys that all have guns,
You despise me, yet I desire you. It's comical, they say, the way we banter. We smiled then. I don't smile now. You left me behind for bigger things;
Several souls around me -- some lost and some broken. Drowing in thin air. Their shirts drenched with the liquid courage that falls from their eyes. Moving through the motions, blindly stumbling through time.

If I am lost in a storm of doubts or a cloud of fear, call Lindsey. If I cannot find the will to go on, get Maggie. If I am in need of light or laughter, text Isabelle or Michelle.
Friends are everything I do not know who choose whom I don't want to leave
We sit around the table While the fire dances in the air Silence filled the room like a swimming pool filled with water Eyes connecting Hands grip tightly on one another waiting for something to be spoken
Long drives with my friends Seems like the fun will never end No, we don't have a destination Nor do we have any motivation We just want to be together Have some fun and live forever
Have I  Ever told you  What makes me  Smile? It's not sunny days Or pretty poetry Or even my favorite stories. A good friend To just hang with and Watch TV shows
I rise not for the sole purpose of Having some place to be- which I do, But rather, because I want to.
In times of uncertainty, in times of great urgency, Call a friend and tell him "Got an hour or two?" Ignorance is bliss, but company is bliss to. Grab a bite, or take a hike; whatever you choose
The other side of my own door, All with the rain's own sad downpour, Standing are two with both feet sore, Paitently wait forevermore.   The two remind me of a time, When the sunshine was so sublime,
Sitting in the grass as the fall breeze flows around me The sun going down behind the pasture where our horses graze Learning a song on my guitar that I just heard on the radio This is my happy place
I am happy When i get to see my friends They make me happy
You will wish to have called just once more To have heard their voice once more To have held their hand when it wasn’t cold To have hugged them tighter the last time you saw them
I’ve found my tribe Finally, finally, finally After years of girls with Perfect hair, endless happiness   Look at them go, look at them
there go my girls  they're arm in arm palm tree girls that keep me warm bring on the sunset my summer stars boardwalk fairs and stealing hearts  
Life can be rough When emotionally, you are not that tough. I try to keep my head up by enjoying the little things, like coffee in my cup. But life isn't all that bad, I have ways to keep myself from feeling sad.
There are days when I feel alone Not knowing how to atone  For the reason why I am feeling  Like I should be concealing.    A text message grabs my attention  Filling me with apprehension. 
When I'm feeling down t turn to my friends, who are clowns, and they help me turn back around
I love my little home. But I don’t get paid for loving it. I take care of it everyday, how come no one visits me? Is this little house only for me?   I love my friends, all of them.
First time I meet you You meet me And we become friends, With no vested interest , We never knew each other before.
When you're here it's never for long enough. I always forget the little things Like how amazing you are, how much you mean to me, and how you make me feel But also, How you're always late.  
I want to say I will never forget you The truth is  I probably won't I want to say I will never stop loving you  The truth is  I probably won't I want to say you will always mean the world to me
Punk music blasting through the speakers. Warm summer air blowing through every strand of my hair. 
stone walls I build around me  though my smile falters none  it's as if my will is caving  and i wish that i could run run from the problems  run from the promises 
I was elated and the whole throng, Girls were clamourning a cheers song. We frabjously watching the cricket match, One after one enjoyed the defenders catch.. My team won the target,
Every dayIt's like they're embarrassed and ashamed.Like they don't want anyone to knowAbout my existence, and that takes a toll.
I never thought this day will come, It never crossed my mind to say it. But at long last it did, and it was worth to remember. They always come and go, but you will stay forever,
Friend you left me alone today. Heaven your mind will depart to. Body stays to decompose down. You are now part of Earth's soul.   Friend you left me days ago now.
Let me tell you where I'm at Here at night supposedly alone, Listening to songs that make me feel whole. However there is Disappointment, Self hate and his sister Anxiety, All of them sleeping over.  
Smokey room filled with chills, Empty bottles, and pills. Today's fears are tomorrows tears.  She feels Euronymous creep in, As he shatters every seam. Today she is seen but tomorrow dreamed.   
  "Stand up," they say,"Stand up and fight.You don't know what,It's like to brawl,If you haven't fought for your dying days.So stand up, stand up and fight." "But I try," you protest," I really do.They can't defeat me if I never lose." "You have l
I have an illness. I have an illness you cannot see. I have an illness you cannot see that is terminal. I forgive.   I forgive you when you warn me. I should have been more grateful.
So many people going away. So many people going separate ways. Long friends, having to make amends. Great memories; Now having to say goodbye. Trying to stay strong and not cry.
Have you ever wondered If anybody's heart would tear Draw your last breath but would they even care   Or would they shed a few tears for show
Sunflower of my withering heart,Oh how you bring me warmth,Like mountains your foundationsform around my worries,your voice soothes all woes. Smile and I'll smile,
Sunflower of my withering heart,Oh how you bring me warmth,Like mountains your foundationsform around my worries,your voice soothes all woes. Smile and I'll smile,
When I look at my friends, Do you know what I see? People that have meant the world to me. That was what I thought, And even still slightly feel, But how much of it is real?
Outlandish tasks Scribbled passionately One: To meet the infamous Ms. Oprah Winfrey. As a puppy waits for Owner to return,
I suppose I would like You to know that I am sorry. That’s how all apologies and the like are supposed to begin, With that admission of guilt or regret or something that tastes like bile
Only so many times a heart can tear So why did it? None of you were there   Hard to think that You'd believe all their lies It left me tongue tied So I cried   
Have you ever felt alone?Like there's all these people around you at work or schoolSmiling and laughingWith their friendsAnd theirBest friends.
The beginning… Their was not 1… not 2… not 3 or 4… but 5. Vacant vessels, all scattered and lost. All of which were bound to be together. Empty, but with a craving for peace… love… serenity   

The day I saw you I thought the angel has come The day I met you I saw true love
Today was an off day for me  At my party/ movie day there were no "wees" The get together was a bust To no one, it was a "must" Since no one attended,  No one comprehended  That they should have come
STEAL ME! Oh Turquoise Soleil, Stuff me in your sack of toys to play. OH just take me away in that Santa Clause bag.   Strip away my loneliness, Give me to a friend.
STEAL ME! Oh Turquoise Soleil, Stuff me in your sack of toys to play. OH just take me away in that Santa Clause bag.   Strip away my loneliness, Give me to a friend.
A spark It connects Not like love But something Just as special Strings slowly Reach out And start To tie Into knots Lots and lots Until soon All you see
The men march on ceaselessly into battle;Rifles strapped,Boots cleaned meticulously,Trained for the unknown war.
  I always knew there was something about you But never had the courage to really know I would see you here and there But never would speak to you A hi and bye
From the first coherent sentence, there have been ink-stained hands leaving prints on select souls and few regrets using points and keys to paint the walls with the colors of joy and anguish  
Maybe I am ill, Perhaps I am not, But the issues many of us face Remain unseen. So I ask that people read along. Look into my head, And into what I have seen. This is why I write my poetry.
My identity is mixed and matched from the roles I play. I learn something new from each and every one About them and myself and The perception of the world from the stage. I'm not just a
We met the other day, All was fine one could say. Let's face the truth: it was not. We were strangers to one another, Different from what we thought. It was awkward, Was it not?  
Oh, the lovely corner, a home and friend of mine. Oh, the lovely corner, your comfort is divine.   Oh, the lovely corner,
Read between the lines they said Sit next to her when she’s lonely they said Split the cash But make sure she gets none they said  
You're broken. I see your hurt. I wanna help, but you push away. You tell me you wanna leave. You said you're taking away your pain today. But what good will that do darling?
The water puts out the fire, love cleanses the pain. The light glows out the dark, the sun shines before the moon. No matter what path you walk into, when ever your feeling happy or sad,
I was blank. A colorless existence with nothing more than a mere outline to hold my soul steady, An outline child only a mother could love. I was the grey cloud that floated behind every rainbow, 
One by one Count as they go There they go You are still here Look at them leave. Now by two by two, Somehow you are still here. Three by three Next, they start to go.
You wake up one day, with your normal routine, Get dressed, brush teeth, it’s a regular scene. But this day isn’t just a regular day, Something is missing, something I won’t say.  
Were I trapped and far away On a land out in the sea The most important thing to have Would be a book, a friend indeed Though its sentences will never change Words never will it speak
She's beautiful by natureRaindrops on rosesI thank her for lifefor being by my sideYesterday, today, tomorrowI feel down?She knowsMy hidden frownBroken by her hugs and smile
Friends are God’s gifts When darkness swallows you And you can’t get up They light a candle And join you in your struggle.   Friends don’t leave and wait for you to follow.
My friend, my friend I'm glad we've met My days are brighter My nights are warmer   My friend, my friend When I am in need You are always there To lend me a helping hand  
 My Life Line   The memories we make are unforgettable Even when some mistakes are unforgivable We stand side by side and make it better Knowing that we always have each other  
I heard a prayer today By Father Pedro Arrupe About love Part of it read: “Fall in Love, stay in love, and it will decide everything.”
My life is a series of tasks, Some are for me and some are for them. Every once in a while someone asks, "Don't you ever get tired every now and again? Having to do these things for others 
The time is fast approaching, and I am not ready. The time is almost heare, and I feel dizzy headed,  I have been working towards this all my life, and now that it's near, I don't want it to come.
I am not solitary. I require the love of others, as do we all to be happy. I need occasional attention; I need encouragement; I need to be reassured, and hugged, and appreciated.
Although to many, they are just a guy To me, they're the reason I give my all. They are gifts that you cannot go and buy, But they pick you up when you trip and fall.  
My Mother's Day gift was Hodgkin's Lymphoma. They say it was the chemotherapy and radiation treatment that saved my life. But they're wrong.     It was the meals that were brought to my shocked family
Voices call my name, their words riding on the wind 
  As the sun bets down on my face, i think, i strive to reach the inner machinations of my fevered mind.   They aren't both wooden, that's for sure.
You are always by my side, Clutched tightly in my right hand. I must only simply slide, To reach your radiant land.   You answer every question,
If I was stranded on a island  The one thing I simply couldn't live without is My family God, friends, and my girlfriend are all considered my family I can't bear the fact that people around the world are;
I see the faces of my friends and they see mine. At least, it looks like me, but when they look into my eyes they can't see the tears streaming underneath the mask of my busy chewing,
What do I need? What do I want? What is a need?   Something important? Something vital? Something?   I need food I need shelter I need...   Friends?
What do I need? What do I want? What is a need?   Something important? Something vital? Something?   I need food I need shelter I need...   Friends?
He touched my hand and it felt like fire- Burning, hot, sweet desire, He meant the world.   He meant the world when he said he
If you have ever Walked down a street, You are sure to remember That many people you meet. Not faces, per se, But people still. "Only some will do important things," they say,
I could live all by myself, Yet never be alone. Two covers and a spine, Can make a charming home.   Wallpaper of rustling pages, Songbirds warbling in verse,
I am not afraid of dying, but instead of living without love. I am not afraid of falling, but instead of watching from above. I am not afraid of crying, but instead of laughing on my own.
Forget the people who praise you,when you are shining and glorious.
Were I traped with no escape, And the odds were stacked against, My solice would come within. A heart of gold can hold All the warmth you need. And the heart inside my loved ones
Four hundred twenty-six ambassadors Kids who want to change the world, one by one To the world we are simply amateurs But our futures shine bright like the sun   No one perceives the impact that HOBY has
If there is one person whom I know I cannot live without It is my best friend, Chynna, That is without a doubt.   She was the first person who loved me Including all of my flaws,
And how my heart did feel that day When all alliance beat upon the crush'd All hope of victory was deftly flush'd By blood and for low price was I betrayed But all in secrecy was soft relayed
She sits in the room full with her friends. They all laugh and talk. But why cant she seem to smile? She tries but their all fakes. She had plenty of reasons to be happy. She had her friends.
Quiet and nothing around Drove with sadness, madness The Solidarity Wherever this place was Happiness was not found   Mentality filled with negativity Run through the long corridors
Music plays in the backgroundFamiliar faces gathered aroundThe smack of the cue ballEchoes through the hallsSmiles and laughter with bad jokesSomeone spews their drink and almost chokes
My dear sweet friend I love you so With you there was nothing to fear We have been through hell Even though we both wanted to yell You keep your cool never wanting me to shed a tear
Here to help, to stay, Brightens my grim and bleak day,  Loving 'till the end.
I need them. I yearn for them. I, at times, ache for them. Them, being my memories. At times, I start to think I've forgotten.  That I've lost them. 
How are you my dear? They always ask, don’t they? Day after day the strangers inquire, Though not a single one aspires To actually shun
There once was a Tobear, who had fur hair, and brightened this one girl's days. She loved him so much, it was such a rush, she wished he would never go away. If she were to leave,
They say That two is company, and three's a crowd I don't quite feel the same.  No matter the amount, good friends are priceless, Whether wild or tame. My lifelines are my friends and family.
Oh, how we drank in the moon, Giddy, Because we had a car full of gas, And music, And an endless night in front of us, Eternal,
(In memory of Farrah)   Every day I hear the thunder clap. 1 Mississippi, 2 Mississippi, 3 Mississippi, 4 Mississippi, I count the seconds until the lightning flashes. I hear the pit-pat-pat on the rooftops,
I fell at the first moment of battle But I didn’t get up until the end, As I scavenged for food I found a foe But we quickly became friends,
Friends are so specialNo one can replace themThe best relationship in the worldNever try to break themBecause you will get nothing but RegretThey make you laughThey make you cryThey make you stupid
All I need is the love of my God For He will keep me safe and secure From the hands of the arrogant That thrive from the devil’s hand His kindness will keep me warm
My rats are sweet but they usually face defeat. When people judge their faces after previous disgraces. They did not ask to be rats.   My rats are playful but seen as shameful.
Shivers, up and down your back Such a gaze makes your mind go slack The bitter cold of catching that one's eye Worse than an outright lie It's just the wind It's not like you have sinned  
Oh Happy Day Has come again For you   Cleaning day What's on the list of excess?   Oh!   A Worn Rug Destroyed by your claws   This poor old Mat
What is there to say when the world's gone astray? What's there to fight when the government leans right? What reason to cry when all rivers run dry? What's worth the pain once I've gone insane? It's worth the love
If I am not beautiful, Will you care to see What lies far inside of me? If my skin is not tan, Will you care for my mind? Speak up young student! Are you creatively blind?
You never noticed That you never saw him eat In all the months you've known him. You had no idea Whether she shaved her legs Because you never saw her in anything but sweats -
When you say that you are fine, It leaves me lost to where your heart lies; What to make of such a quandary With diction so abstract in nature - I am granted the privilege akin to a diety:
I'm being so selfish, I'm not the only one with problems not the only one going thru it, not the only one whose depressed, &' they tell me not to drink but somehow I still just want to do it, some people I knew died last year, and even though
I am shell, shadow,left to leave a lakeof my own tears and ask that you woulddrown in them,be brave,soon,and drown in them.Meet me on the other side.
Along  time we  go. To where? I  do  not  know. But  swift is our motion, commotion, and conversation about timeless 
On that day I thought I knew Who I was and what to do It wasn't until she passed me by Then I learned that was a lie   Had I known that day  How much meaning I'd put into May
when I think of happiness I think of us   stuffed inside a car, talking all at once, singing along at the top of our lungs with the windows rolled down. 
I'll always have these memories from when times were better no arguments... or awkward silence   One by one with each approaching year I become abandoned slowly, as time passes  
Tainted Flower, thou visage dangerously beautiful.
It was 8th grade when I first met you. I was alone. Cuts on your arms and demons in my head. Our worlds collided And somehow, us two, who were destined to self-destruct, were saved.
Adulthood snuck up on me, deceived me Oh, she’s a sly one She flirted with me for a time, dangling her alluring maturity and ravishing freedom before my eyes
Many summer days don’t start off like this You’re out from school, listening to music, and on the phone “Double date? To the movies?” sounds like bliss
Say the words you know will burn a fire within me Say the ones that you think will push me Say them. Please say them.  Becuase I promise then, I won't feel bad walking away. 
A scratch in a casket is not something you would expect.With the meaning attached, you think someone would have checkedBut with you I expected nothing else.A public flaw presented beautifully.You did just the same.Wore your flaws beautiful and pro

Friends are forever This is not so People tend to come and go On to better things Always after the new fad And when that fad doesn't include you You become obsolete You've served your purpose
How to be best friends with your Ex boyfriends mother.  
I'm thankful because Jehovah God is the most important part of my life.I'm thankful to have two new friends, Jason Laster and Stephanie, his wife.I'm also thankful to have my other friends and my brother.
Pretty face, heart not yet stone; run the world but feel alone. Heartless friends are what I know; if they care it doesn’t show. Always giving all my heart, always loyal from the start. Change my looks change my ways anything to make them stay.
My hands are often cold, like ice, like the Arctic. I dont know why. I must tuck them into my lap, just to warm them. But when I'm with you, they get hotter, like the heat of a fireplace,
Hard to hate when he’s liked: A million reasons to keep fighting but he justs sits. Thoughts that scream in his mind but stay mute to the one he claims he loves. Why does he do this?
I do not eat my friends You eat my friends I can see their ends Sometimes... people stab my friends they feed my friends to their friends I can see their ends
I remember my first day of school, backpack and all. I remember moving across the country. I remember seeing a new place and not knowing a soul there. I remember meeting her, we're still friends today.
Full of laughs and jokes, We make fun and we play. Friends come together in 'Hellos' and "Hey!' We poke and laugh and explore. We play and draw and say things clever. Friends learn, laugh, love together
             He called me a hopeless romantic. He said that I was naïve for wanting someone to love me like the sun loves the moon, And he turned up his nose when I said that I wanted kisses like the stars because they are
She was the kindest friend I ever had, 
I lay down in bed thinking about what could be going on through your head Where are your thoughts Who is in them How are you feelings I ask these questions repeatedly as I want to know everything about you
If you ever feel as if the walls in your house are closing in on you. I will freely come get you, and we will drive, with no given direction.
I run at my own pace   Boys Virgin Lips and Untouched Hips Not even ready for first base Flirt with me and that is enough I run at my own pace   Friends Slumber party at my house
6 close friends, brought together on accident, they've got a bond that can't be broken. when we have no one else we've all got eachother, the friends that turned into family. we yell and scream and cry
I never know what's right and wrong Why should I venture there? Where mystery has full control Where pain begins its stare
My parents think I’m still fucked up cuz you’re dead My parents ask why I don’t talk to my friends about you We are all still fucked up cuz you’re dead We don’t talk about it We drink about it Cry about it
If we travel back to a time of simple tag and “you can’t catch me”   You’ll also go back to a time of when it was you and me Of taking turns on the last swing
I told myself I'd stop caring, but it hurts even more when I pretend that I don't. I'm angry that it got to be her, and not me. She got the first crack, and that crack became the rift that broke your heart, I think.
I need to say I'm sorry to my friends for lying to your faces again and again yeah i still drink yeah i still smoke but you still loved me regardless of this stuff that you know
't u dare blow me a kiss and call me loser. I'm trying to be mad at u but now I'm smiling at a text. U say, 'u can't be mad at me' And I say, 'why's that?'
Me  :noun   a. family member: 1. a loving sister who talks too much, 2. a devoted daughter who is full of questions;  
Never shall I forget that beautiful church in Tigard.
Eyes made of ice, And a heart made of stone. Everybody hates her, She knows she's alone.   All she wishes for, Is a single friend who cares. One who comforts her,
Soon I return To that time I dread. It's not so much the place I hate, Rather, the people that Don't understand a thing about me. They cheat, they lie, All to get where they want to go.
Sometimes I think, we are just on the brink of discovery.   Friends and faces screaming names wispered silences broken frames.   Crying tears, and laughing faces
I’ve begun to pick up the broken pieces of my heart. It’s a slow process but 
We met again in the dark last night, But before I let you go I left my mark. And for a while I'll haunt your reflection. Every time you see it, you'll also see me.
I feel alone Don’t wanna go home No one answers their phone All my friends seem pretend This is the end  
When God creates His souls
She
She is a strong tree Unbending, Defending, Strong Shelters me from harm
Awesome Is... Having your very own bedroom A paid phone bill Smiling in the face of danger A surprise from your sweetie Dangling on the edge, knowing you have a friend to catch you
he hands of Time seem at rest, but with a simple, steady beat they move toward an eternity unknown to the world.  
When skies grow gray And smiles fade away, I know they will be there.   As tears stream down Enough for me to drown, They will give me their care   Friends create smiles
There once was a group of friends, The rules… yeah, they would bends; Awkward and silly, They’d laugh wily nilly, But that is not where this poem ends…   The first is a girl named Hannah;
For Auria:    Momma always told me not to judge a book by its cover,
It’s been
To my dearest best friend,   People don't expect a guy and a girl to "just" be friends. When it comes to us, the rule bends. We understand eachother like a well-known riddle. From the outside, to the middle.
Her ship is sinking, it's now 20 feet below. It's already submerged with only one place to go. Down in the murky depths where the light doesn't show. Her passion is gone, now stagnant, as the water ceases to flow.
Life becomes rather monochromatic when you become very melodramatic, because your friends aren't really estatic to talk to the self fanatic, and social interation becomes problematic,
This is an image of my past as you can see.   I'm not the entire focus.  I'm one of many people.   Taken years ago, you look upon it and it appears to be taken on a regular summer day.  
An understanding friend
Isn't it strange how we can have so many friends, yet feel so alone? Isn't it strange how someone we know can become someone we knew?
A cumbersome, catatonic existence can burn at my handsand I'll keep the torch with me, an old friend caught between young palms,ash and emotion make me stand:
She's a tomboy with blonde hair and blue eyes, Who's quite all about the country guys. Before her braces she used to wear glasses, But now she wears contacts.
The phone rings again.
The scars are all over. I think about all of the pain. But also about how much I've gained. Listening to hate, People getting raped. Aiming to succeed, Passing up my problems with a gigantic lead.  
Pain nobody can see, hidden from a shield of my own making
What is it about yourself, a friend, or life in general that you find awesome? My life is usually such a bore. School doesn't interest me, but my friends make it a mandatory chore.
What would I do without my “Mack” An essay, or poem-probably her fave It’s just her thing, she’s got a knack
A fresh fruit
Darkness. That is all I used to see in this world we live in. Darkness, The total absence of life, Of joy, Of love Of awesomeness.   Then I met someone,
I put all of my feelings about you In jars of glass, Transparent to everyone But you.   I've hung out with your friends  Multiple times And I'm certain they'll be questioning
Family and friends. They help you through the hard times. They make life awesome    
To bring some awe to your your life, look at the mundane in a new light
We stand by each other Though the distances are wide We stand by each other Yeah, side by side. We stand by each other Cause we can't hide. We stand by each other Carried with the tide.
I WAS ONCE FRIENDS WITH A WEEPING CROCODILE AND A SMILING RABBIT.
Please tell me it was I who made you leave I do not want to believe that you meant to walk away I want to blame myself
This will not be another poem about how my heart is so broken, how lost I feel, the pathetic string of hope I'm secretly holding on to, or how I've been numbing myself just so I won't have to feel the emptiness.
At the edge of my bed, A close friend creeps, His gibbers and gabbers fill my head, The way he speaks is quite bleak, I'd not mind it if he wasn't two years dead.
So what's a family? Is the representation of it exaggerated on T.v.? I thought family was supposed have each other backs, but then why do I not feel your hands up against my back? 
One noon, my friends pranked you, Pretending like they always do. They texted that I want us to meet, Even if I don't want to greet.
I want you in my life Read between the lines Behind this words I hide The truth I keep inside
We always say "Hi" And it comes with a smile We always say "Hi" But yet to say "Goodbye"
Are you lyin' to me
Mother   Says she cares That she'd have stopped it "If I would have just told her when it was happening" (I was five) But then says 
Friends are like trees
the first time in my life i ever smelled a stick of incense was at my friend lindseyswe were in the fifth grade and she was my very very very best friendshe watched all the cools eighties movies
A love day filled with joy and laughter. Went to the cinema after. A breeze of beauty passed me by. Acknowledgement and denial, My normal self but still a cosmic pawn. Choices are given, options limited.
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" Beauty however sees only its flaws Beauty doesn't know they're beautiful flaws Beauty is a rose
Friends are those who claim to have your back
And so the time has come as it has before,
Eyes torn, eyes bright; reaching  Hands clasped, outstretched; speaking. They tell my story, they lived my days: of teary-eyed nights but persistent days, spent studying, searching, for the ones who helped me see,
They say, "keep your friends close But your enemies closer." I ask, then, how do you know? Who is your friend And who is your foe? One moment it's sunshine And happiness and laughter.
Free From everything I used to be                      Re-writing my history Picture by picture I’m finding me   I’m alright My hair plain brown, my face aged with time
When I look at you I don’t just see some sad, lost girl, I see someone beautiful, who makes my world melt when she smiles, I see someone whose laugh just makes me want to laugh right along with you.
Dangling of a cliff, Fifty feet in the air Holding on to your rope- You can’t make me let go
Down in the meadow there lays a secret
Who am I behind the camera lens?  I constantly take pictures with my friends. Everyone that looks at my Instagram  thinks I'm going ham.
Ever have the feeling of being all alone? Like you have to hash out your problems all by yourself?   Well, I feel you. These past few months, I've been feeling like no one has my back anymore.
I am a girl, that's how I was born. I am an athlete, a girl ATHLETE that is me. I work hard everyday training and studying starting in the morn.
 WAR.... "War does not determine who is right... just... who is left."
We cannot become what we want to be remaing who we are today We wonder why as girls we bring down other girls because we all know how hard being a girl is Expensive makeup is everywhere
He held the gun close to his head."I just want to be dead"
I once knew a kidHe was joyous, excited, and niceHe was not at all timidPositive emotions, he could entice
Hey again.    It's just me. I got nothing to say No games to play No place to lay It's only me.   Im here by myself.
As a kid I danced on the livingroom carpet. The beat filled me inside and made me feel alive. The frenzy growing and hungry and ready to explode in a rhythmic symphony of movement.
I have no color,  No shade of gray.
When I was a kid I thought all poems were about roses
I am a person, a true human with flaws and weaknesses. There are times when I fall to pieces. But I get up. I move on. There are bigger issues going on.
I stand with others
College what a magical place.
She doesnt know she poor, Even when life tells her in many ways Her refrigerator becomes empty. Whenever she is hungry she can't even find a whole meal. Her family barley has enough food to last them until they can get more.
i love when no love is given back i speak truth and everyone tells me its wack i dont understand how are we supposed to be family when you dont understand me its always 3on1 because i believe in what i stand for
As I stare outside the window today, I see little children with a ball they play Happily on the street together today.   As I stare outside the window, I remember our time back then, Where are we now?
I hear the lies that seep through your lips I prepare my ears for your false words I prepare my feelings for your pitiful efforts to spare them Do you lie to hide your mistakes?
Thoughts of nothing In times of despair I see you strutting Like you don't see me here I wished to fly like a choir on high To live like a new being awoken To be sheet thin and soar the sky
Him, so far away He, taken so distant, Oh? He's, still within me.
<3   You could see it in their eyes. They weren't quite friends anymore. The way she smiled for him, friends don't smile like that.   The way he puts his hands on her back,
I was made like this; created by a higher power, who took much of her or his time to make sure she or he got all of this right.
You're the mac to my cheese, the bread to my butter You're the seaweed to my sushi, there'll never be another We're the burger with fixings, ice cream with all the toppins
I am from a small house with many people, The sound of birds and smell of food. Toys all around and bikes scattered on the ground. Sitting at a full table and dreaming of a new life.
Cold plastic is what I see It’s all you will ever be Whispers and actions Divides our “family” into factions Rumors and back-stabbing Anger from her blabbing “Second family” yeah right
A tear, a whisper A shout, a cry No one seems to hear No one is by your side.   Everyone is oblivious until it's too late, Another angel has been sent back too soon.  
We're together,  Till the end.  We giggle and laugh,  We are friends.  There starts to be jokes,  We can no longer take. Our unbreakable bond,  starts to break.  We no longer look, 
in my mind
I’m not one who has an alter ego,a lie people create when they’re feeling shallow,an ideal to covet and try to uphold,when in reality they are much less bold.  
  Universal infinite, as strung upon the stars  Collapsing voids, swirling masses of rock and gas, slowly losing solid grasp Drifting into worlds where the unknown dominates a presence of oxygen
I am a visionary and I envisioned a future with you. An infinite one. A happy one. A lovely one.   You created a vision I have never seen before, not even in my dreams. 
A: School is for fool! Let's go to the pool! Kick the stool, And grab the tools! We can make our rules, And make the girls drools. Do you want to be cool?
Sitting under the Christmas tree, Watching reindeer grazing in shade, Red fruit and green leaves glowing from far, Waiting for Santa clause,  Come and fetch give to kids,
I am the boy named Koid The boy who loves the world around him the tv he watches, the video games he plays, the family he loves, the boy goes online a lot, he finds a whole universe.
No rhythm No rhyme Just me And myself Dark hands Bright face WIth a dim glow in the eyes Worn out By the challenge Of living each day with a smile Inside
Everything you feel, it's all in your mind Overwelming thoughts leads one to be blind The danger is real, but fear is a choice Save yourself from all of that noise
The days of days that you were there,
She walks in with a smile that can light up the night
we fall in love in those in-between moments, like when the sun is buried right at the brink of that fine line and if you want to know the truth,the boy i sit next to in physics drew the horizon.
  So some of my friends recently asked me, want to go swimming today? And I gave them a foul, foul look, and stated without delay No. I clearly don’t want to swim in the pool so you can go play
Gems and Dimonds and most of the lot are smeared and bruised  by life's dirty plots so thus we gems  so thus we diamonds work from dust to bring new light  we are not perfect
My name is Isobel and I know its quite simple at best but I must confess it suites me well.
You don't have long to live So why end it now Stress can go so far but  obtaining the power of decision can save your lives 
I wake up to a sea of white. Is this what society is preparing me for? Being marginalized as "that black girl".  I expected more.    Perhaps my standards were too high,
"Up from the ashes"
Flawless doesn't mean perfect, We let celebrities and athletes define it for us. Flawless means that you have accepted your flaws, You've learned to love them and use them to inspire others.
Beauty is skin deep For some that may be true For others its not how they look
Stop! Don't think,Just breathe,It's over,He's gone,He can't see you cry,     Deep BreathStop: the tears,The lies,The pain,The regret,The blame,     Deep Breath
Im sometimes wrong, but I'm always right sometimes I win, when I refuse to fight Im not perfect , but who is? I'm gonna change the world with my words of encouragement  see, look at me. short bubbly and kind
Expressing how I feel sometimes confuse me a great deal Can I understand myself? Or better yet can you? I dont always say what I feel But when I do I keep it real Anywhere any place
  Secrets to my Flawless: The Real Flaw  
I may be short, but oh, do these legs make me stand tall. These legs, yes, MY legs give me the strength to do as I choose. And how I appreciate these wonderful creations God has given me
A knife through your heart, they tell you how you feel. A smile on your face, they tell you what to say. One more dish on the counter, you better do what you’re told. One more load in the washer, you better get a job.
A knife through your heart, they tell you how you feel. A smile on your face, they tell you what to say. One more dish on the counter, you better do what you’re told. One more load in the washer, you better get a job.
Why follow a crowd? Never have fit in with a pack.  I've always taken the " small leap of faith" so they say. Natural hair? Psh I've dyed my hair so many colors natural isn't even an option anymore!
Get speed dressed, eat quickly, rush to school. . .   Get good grades, get compliments, feel awkward. . .   Get sister, get home, get sleep. . .       Wake up and do it all over again.
Girls. Overpriced makeup. It Differentiates those who want to be from those who... Are?
Yes I am flawless, from the color of my skin to the brown glow in my eyes. I am a soaring bird, who always flies. Obstacles stand hand to hand waiting for a perfection to come on their land.
Reasons why I am flawless:   I am not. I have a dead rose garden buried in my body and a barbed wire fence around my heart.  
French vanilla is what they see of me and has always viewed me as lack of sun is what they may say but African American is me all the way the background of my family is what I would
Behind the hazel, she's just a lonely little one. Behind the hazel, she wants to the world to be gone. Behind the hazel, she's fighting everyday. Behind the hazel, she's scared in every way. Behind the hazel, she's slightly shattered.
Your feet are too big Your feet are too small Your legs are too thick Your legs are too thin Your butt is big Your butt is small Be who I am   Your tummy is so flat
You (Flawless) She wakes up and starts her day Gets in the car and goes to school Everyone she walks by, she says, “Hey”
It's true no one is perfect. But everyone can become Flawless. I'm flawless in my own way. I am Fanatical. I am Loyal. I am Accepting. I am Whimsical. I am Lovable. I am Enthusiastic.
Living is wanting more,always more; Wishing, not for appetite,but for illusion. Oh illusion, this is the signal of life; Love,that is life. Loving till you can give yourself for what you love.
To those who look nothing seems extraordinary a standard face, two eyes a nose, high cheek-bones
they look at her with big bright eyes little do they know she rages inside they look at her like she's an angel sent from above little do they know she's far from being jesus white dove
Why should I change..
Flawed; simply those who stand with imperfections, and have mental or physical blemishes. I believe you are what you think you are... Self-fulfilling prophecy
Today the world seems incomplete,
I see myself as people see me
The cleanest face, the whitest smile, the brightest eyes.
Flawless is just a word or so they say.  There is no perfect women or man.
I look in the mirror and I love what I see 
I wake up in the morning and look in the mirror, To see who I am and wonder if I need to change.  The media shows us that we are  inferior, That without being slim and muscular we are strange.
That's me,I'm confident.
i do not want to be the girl that makes you forgetyour nights filled with loathing and apathyor that pushes the thoughtof suicide from your cluttered closet of a mindi want to be the girl that makes you remember
It’s 6 AM, but I’ve been awake since 4. For the past four days, a nagging feeling of nostalgia, regret, and longing has crept intro the crevice of my heart reserved for sentimentality.
Verse 1: Why do I fall when I stand why do I sink when I swim and why when I try these things never go as planned when I'm around you everything I try to do seems to fail
I want to be strong. I want to be pretty. I want to be heard. Someone will always have what we want, but cherishing what we have is the best thing to own. I always thought, and thought.
A beautiful face is that all you see , desighner on her back , matched with the gucci shoes and using common phrases such as ...."I sip my tea ".
My portfolio Is my best friend. My portfolio Is my worst enemy. My portfolio Will help me pass Financial Lit. class.
He is the world to me, Yet he is so much more to me No one could imagine such a lovely face He's just so beautiful in so many ways "There's nobody like you girl" I'm just so glad that he came into my world
I won't change my ways Living is meant to make flaws But I'll grow from mine    
When in life, In times of strife, One must be a leader.   Whether it sounds its command in a roar or a squeak, Whether it executes with the hand of the strong or the mind of the weak,
She rides the bus every day to school, and people tell her she is uncool. Every day she eats lunch with the teacher,
Finally realizing I'm imperfectly perfect.
“Free me”, she screams in his face.“No more.No more a moore.I am a river.I flow.I live and give
Delicate as a flower, precious as gold. Pure in heart, blossoming white as snow. A mother's first born is a flawless love. To have and to hold, to fly away like a dove. Family by fate,
Nostalgia hit me like a wave of nausea And it ain't goin' away So I thought I'd call just to remind ya Of the good old days Don't you miss 'em, oh I really miss 'em I really miss you, too  
I've always told myslef to be strong    But what do I do on those days when the tears total to a tsunami; overflowing and chaotic, unable to control  
People will hate on other people They will put them down and make them feel like nothing Just because they don't look a certain way or dress a certain way
I hate these ballet shoes Everyday marks another bruise And as I dance with the pain, my brain is in flames, going insane   Working double time over what should be considered a war-crime
A friend is somebody
You
When the sky is clear and the sun is out Your eyes are bright and bluer than blue. And when the sky is dark and grey So are your eyes And so is your mood And that's just how it is with you.
Circumstances may neglect you No matter how people Bring you down to feeble And let your self-esteem low and blue   Only fools burn bridges Of one’s failures and foes
Behind the curtain What I keep hidden From your eyes and mind Is strictly forbidden   Under the mask What a clever disguise
Depressed-depressed and purged from joy  I stand in the absence of men. Fears of course are not lacking And regrets I continue stacking. Yet how generous is your hatred’s provider
There is a girl. A girl with beautiful eyes And a stunning personality The room lights up
  Depression
I roll with my crew and I talk with my family/ life's too short to let relationships damage/ so I write this to you feeling fragile ceramic/ cuz back when you had moved I couldn't
I feel your presence, when the grass shakes a shiver That’s when everyone hides and everyone covers You paint sinister lines over clouds of silver
My sore feet walk over the cobblestone and all I can see my dream ahead as I take one step at a time. London's bridge came falling down. While others drowned, over the edge I climbed.
We let life pull us down by our ankles into the shadowy depths of uncertainty While we pull ourselves up by our bootstraps Trying to stay afloat Trying to get better   The raft to which we cling is broken
falling through, walking around  time on my hands  the long days and night ' im still confused on my daily days  make it worth while, sleeping peacefully im wasting my time  time on my hands 
What is a friend? If you are unsure, I can tell you more? Friends are not selfish This I can say for certain My Friends are not the normal type They are loud, proud, black and bright
There we were, on the last day I knew leaving them was my only crime But I told them, “Until next time!” Even so, the fact remained: I was going away The memories rush back to me
Imagine finding that friend who can create a song from your thoughts and make you shed a tear in shear amazement, To be grateful that someone like that understands your existence
  What uplifts me? Such a simple question But difficult to answer What does it mean? "What inspires me?
I am lusting after the red melon green lights making amber on your skin
Time keeps moving forward Nothing's slowing it down. Friends will disappear from every corner Even the ones who promised to stick around   If only my time with them was as long as the classes
Your eyes used to be so bright They looked straight forward Unnerving but more alive than all those around you, They used to look so colorful and awake   What changed you?   Was it the people?
Where were you, When I needed you most? Did you run when you heard my cry? Did you look me in the eye and tell me it'll be alright? Did you hold my hand when I couldn't take it anymore?
I want to scream, I want to shout, So turn up the music, Let’s jam it out! Let’s go to the concert! Let’s sing all the words! Let’s show all of the people We are the nerds!
These brightly colors,
Someone may ask What uplifts you You may say something obvious Summer, friends, food, family, your significant other But rarely will a person ever answer, life
We had walked on opposite sides of the street,
Red, Blue, Green and PinkV- necks, halters, tanks and spagetti strapsBootcuts, skinnies, jeggings, and skirtsFabrics and different shades one after another,
It seems so easy to say that you are happy To smile and be filled with glee But me, I wonder how we can make it last forever. That is a mystery. My mind it thinks the keys to life 
For Hunter, Priscille, Any, Taylor, Clarissa, David, and Summer Bridge 2014  
I see my schedule, this can't be
She is ready to start over  Ready for a new day
There are too many things in this world that uplift me. So many things that make me happy. If I had to truly choose one. I would think to myself it simply can't be done.
Struggle......
Come on down to Red Heads Resort Drink the incredible wine. Hear the rumblings of music All at Red Head’s Resort There you can find Many people from the world Full of culture and stories
The ones who uplift me Those are the ones I truly care for The ones who make me feel better about myself Those are the ones I truly care for The ones who write sincere words to me

EMBRACE LIFE Everything Happens for a reason You can go through bad things or Good things If you go through bad things Just Embrace it If you go through Good things
Though your pain, can last a while Sometimes, you just fake a smile. Doing things you shouldn’t, And you originally wouldn’t.
Where were you when I needed you most?
When I was four I loved my brother and he broke his arm he screamed and fell and I didn't know what to do so I gave him marshmallows When I was seven I loved a doll and I cut its hair
I dream of a place One distant, yet close I dream of a face With blue eyes and a sweet nose. I dream of friends, Friends I met long ago. I dream this chapter ends And I find a new home.
Her smile is the beauty of nature at its best, when leaves are ripe and the trees are at rest. Grin perl white and shines with glee, like a deep night sky it's a must on what you see. Waves with ponder that's brown
Oh, If they only knew....   It's never who they think it is Those who would suspect  that you long for someone  
My home is a feeling, not a place The feeling I get when I see the face of my dear and trusted family The one's with no blood shared yet bonds we see. O how I yean and yearn for ye
On tuesdays,  We went to the movies. And I wouldn't trade a dime,  To have worked those nights,  Instead of eating popcorn.    In June,  We went to the beach.  And the heat of the sand, 
We all have our preferences You and I, he and she From our individual tastes In food, friends, music, coffee   Friends may say or speak In ways that influence us Though, the result be bleak
I am empty. No feelings, no thoughts, no memories. There is nothing there, because everything that which was, seems to have escaped me.
Playing rugby is a blast, I'm sure our team will never be last. I'm so proud to be member, Of a team I'm sure to remember. Playing on the team lifts me up, Especially since we're sure to win a trophy cup.
I'll be honest. I'm a terrible dancer.

They were a loving family says the photos covering every inch of the wall,  a small dog sleeps down in the living room while a growing boy slept upstairs,
What do I leave for myself when the world has rung me dry. What have you left me with when you've picked me clean. Call me a broken down shelf, a tired little thing.

You used to see the real me. You used to know how it felt to be considered different. You claim you haven’t changed, but I know you have. You tried to convert me too, but I refused.
You always say “fake it ‘till you make it” i wish i didn’t have to fake it i work every day to please others
Tea on a Sunday  evening Two young girls  hide behind their words their illustrations small talk eludes dark realities too afraid to address the monster in the closet
Just a young black male in this world of sin Man versus man I'm fighting from within Got to stay strong, can't break nor bend My whole life changed when my brother got locked up in the pen
I Am Not Who I Am. By: Reid Davis The day is full of masked faces and fake smiles Being decepted for miles and miles But when the light dissapears And we're safe in our beds
Fuck this shit I'm winningExcuse me Pardon my beginning So ecstatic About the erratic Accomplishments god has given And the time and will I have put in while living 
  My head, thickset with smoke, emotion's run, Arid hills ring augmented, fragile child Twists, and vanishes to midnight blue sun, Perception, understanding beguiled.  
Everyday I get to spend time with friends, family, or my love makes me happy because I enjoy the time i get because i never know when will be my last day.  The day I g

Get up now don't let the door hit you. Ay pick your head up and start living. Life doesn't wait for you. Not now, not ever. So get moving, it's jiggy time. 
Friends forever, friends for now Friends will always let you down. If they love you, they will vow To never try and make you frown. It may happen no matter how, But friends will always let you down.
You made me believe it was possible to trust another human being. Of course the only reason why I've become so cynical of trust, is simply because i've been broken by constant sorrow,
People walk into your life And then vanish instantly But they don’t see the price Which happens consistently   They touch someone in a way And become part of them But then they just walk away
I must be a ghost. Oh, how they walk through me. It's like I'm invisible, And no one hears my screams. It's a lifetime story, But I hate those shows. There's things in the world,
I guess I was wrong about you, I'm sorry I wasted your time. Kill my hope, my heart, my dreams, my soul, and mind. It's time for you to destroy me, What's left of me anyways.
How is this fair?  I offer nothing, yet they give me their swords.  I speak with harsh truths, yet they thank me for my kindness.  I stand humbled by their greatness, and yet they look to me. 
I have a past, we all do Some of it is lies, other things are true My grandma said I lied about rape My aunt said I was fake My church said I was a mistake My friends said they needed a break

To miss the ones you love Across highways and mountains and seas
There are those who cherish their family. There are those who cherish their friends. But for some, like me, they are one. My friends are my sky full of stars.
I got your back all the time,without a doubt you got mine,to you hurt,to see you cry,makes me wanna weep and wanna die,and if you agree to never fight,you know you'll have a friend for life,it wouldn't matter who's wrong or right,cause i wouldn't
Written with a pen, sealed with a kiss,
A gleaming demeanor hid a dark interior. No one dared to question my painted smile or the pain in my eyes. No one asked,  so I didn't tell. Falsified statements." I am fine." "I am happy."  I am not dying inside.
Deep in the mass of mystical thoughts,
Striving the derived blackened nightsWandering the
What is a friend That says one thing and does another Who apologizes with sincerity For something they don't remember   What is a lover That takes your heart and doesn't love back
I used to care too much, now I do not care at all, I have been up with my "friends", but they all watched me fall. My trust was so giving, I thought I was content,
I've never written a rap before
I take care of 7 kids but I don't have a child of my own. At age 18, I am a mother. I supply a heart and a home.
I never thought I'd hate something as much as you  You take away the good people from the world  You make them want you more then anything or anyone else  Those with hard enough lives you make worse
Sunset settles on the east As the sky darkens Stars twinkle While tine slows downs Owls awaken Yet, birds fly south Heart beats And I stay still waiting waiting waiting
They’re telling me it’s beautiful. I believe them, but will I ever know the world behind my wall?
She looks in the mirror and paints her face because a painted smile is easier than a plastic one and makeup is cheaper than a surgeon. She’s beautiful and she’s the only one who doesn’t know it. She’s lost in the dark. Running. Searching.
Sometimes in life there are perfect moments.
I was lost. I was so lost. I was lost in the dark and very far away from home. But I was lost with you. You and your lips and your blonde and your red and your heelies and your tattoos and your music and your books. We were so lost.
Raise our bottles to the purple nightWe'll bend these floorboards          weighed down with our voices.Shout the doors wide openfling the windows up                              erupt into the
Past     closed up pizza jointsPast laundromats, through the dying noisethe nights tick on like clockworkwatch the calendar as my steps unwind
If a boy sinks to his knees
You cannot see the beguiling manner of those people You, an amiable person Them, a people of many faces You run past the boisterous crowds Only aiming to please Behind the false perfection,
Pampered kisses, the urgency to feel the lay out of their skin Drunk to begin, sober at the end
When I speak of love I aim my voiceto my parents who brought me hereand taught me how to deal with the cruelties of the world,my freshman year english teacher who cared even after I left
I sing of manipulation of old friends, for the replacment of new acquaintances. When you're taken for granted, when you're friendship has become a chore, a burden even.
F*ck the friendzone…as a matter of fact, f*ck the bestfriendzone.
I was stuck in the big vast ocean.
The sun sheds a tear for the moon,       and the moon for the sun. For only a glimpse of the others is caught       before each must run.
  The first thing I ever learned from her is that when she says she doesn't care, she's really lying through her teeth. 
They tap tap tap on my windows, my door "Come out, join us" Just the girls, like the old days   Back-stabbing petulant little beings long legged, jealous, pain driven monsters  
  Not enough time for goodbye.
Forever trusting no one, and maybe you were right. They came around to change that. The cause of every fight. Fighting in waves crashing on the shore. The ones we pace across endlessly. 
My 87 grandmother has been through a lot. She’s had five different cancers, Multiple tumors, intestine troubles, and a stroke. She lost all control of her body, time after time. But she never gave up.
They go away quickly,   as fast as they came.
My friends don't want me Life is getting hard I'm feeling so lost And it's tearing me apart There is no one to turn to Nobody cares It's making me retreat
                                        Stitch-1 she should have thought before she did! Stitch-10 she should have thought before she said what she did! Stitch-20 she should have thought before she turned them all!
I know why you do it.  I know that the numbness and dull moans inside your skull  is near all consuming. Some days pain is the only voice that is shrill enough to break through
Listen carefully as the sand stirs still in a barren land of thoughts and dreams. How quietly the wind does sing; how distant beingness seems.   And there, but one, stand you alone,
Two tiny little, white paws
When I told her I didn't want to be friends anymore-That I was done with it (and her)-She cried.She begged.She asked why.And I tried to explain…But my founded reasoning fell onto deaf,
Not all scars show, and not all wounds heal Sometimes you can't see the pain that others feel Not all lies are false and not all truths are real Sometimes lies are necessary to help you deal  
  It used to be
  Like a dancer, She skips, twirls, leaps A ribbon of happiness Trailing from her toes As they brush the pavement
Stream of consciousness. A fill of void and mess.  Generalizing my distress in a field in which I won't digress. Yes, we are all in this world together.
She's got rock star style with that beauty queen flare. She has my full attention with just the flip of her hair. She's got a lot of class, I can't even deny.
I’m afraid of myself I’m afraid that I will never succeed I’m afraid that my parents will be disappointed in my decisions I’m afraid that the world will not accept me for who I am  
Listen! Can you hear me? I am screaming for help I am welling up With the pain inside, With the thoughts that haunt me   Listen! Can you hear me? I am holding your hand
Look above me and you will find An unfinished song forgotten over time The notes are perfect in my heart they will collide
It seems like only yesterday I was waking up to your "good morning" texts.
  Lets drift away
I know your fears, And sense you tears, I know your dreams, And sense your smile gleam.   Although you share with me What others will not see, I am silenced by your brushing hand,
I know your fears, I sense your tears, I know your dreams, And sense your smile gleam.   Although you share with me What others will not see, I am silenced by your brushing hand,
I do not speak loud
I'm falling out of an airplane. Not a parachute to spare. I'm calm though Because I'm unaware. Unaware that I'm falling? No I'm probably unaware that I'm in any danger.
Friends meaning of friend has it changed over time has it lost its value look at your friends are they what you would call a friend the old english meaning is to love
I'm only there for your sorrowThings different when you happy and I have to swallow .... My emotionsThe devotion I give to youHow can I tell if you're trueDamn I know you got a booBut.....What about me?
My best friend is like a moon,
Likes my self not my statuses
I write this to my father I hope I make you proud Across the widest canyons Can you hear me now?
Hannah was late coming home this evening. Traffic was slow and she had trouble leaving. Work was hard and she hadn't any time
When I was a young child I was abused.  I won't say which way,  how or even why I think it happened to me,  but it did.    My mother would tell me how  beautiful she was and how
Honesty is honestly a rare commodity.
The ocean waves touch my feet   As I walk along the lonely beach   Hands in my pocket, my head held high   Tears streaming down my face  
  You tell me to state my mind when I am quiet.   You force me to share my thoughts on the daily things.   But when it comes time to voice what I believe
what are friends are they lovable or are they like a sneaky vampire in the night and gonna bite you when you are not lookin? well i say it depends on the person you become friends with
I am glad you guys made it,
You called me your brother.
There are lions in jungles that roar with pride. There are snakes in the grass, they're sly, they hide. There are sheep led by pastors, so fluffy and round. The wolves are just hungry, they wander around.
Last year held challenges, Some that terrified me, some that didn’t. All were conquerable With the right mindset. I made my plans, I planted my heart Firmly, steadfastly into them.  
Through the trees shone A burnt orange light The sun sinking low As the moon took its post.   Friends huddled around A fading orange glow The last of the coals As the cold held us close.
I remember a time Seems like yesterday When things were different, Less complicated. Barbie dolls strew across a yellow quilt Fairytales played to life in the backyard Picnic lunches
It’s funny:
Question. Pain. Life. Mystery.
ignoring all communication. i am so tired of hearing the woe is me bullshit. it is my fucking heart, that has decided not to work. my lungs don't want to be lungs anymore
when i tell you my heart is breaking and my wrists are shattering under the fists of a mental illness. just. listen.
“i pressed my face to the space between your neck and kissed you softly with chapped lips. (you were laughing and texting and trying to take my mind out of the dark) i dragged my fingernails lightly across your tattooed arm.
We all have those days. Those days we feel like nothing. We just want to sleep forever. Maybe you haven’t felt that yet. I have. You just stare at the wall. You think about everything.
You may have lost yourself, But not me. I'll always have you in my memories. But now, you have family and friends there for you. Even though they'll get mad at you from time to time, But don't care.
The gears are turning in our head
What was it like to be 17? It was never feeling good enough. It was laughing for hours until my sides hurt It was being terrified about my future
A good friend of mine once told me "Close friends? You don't have them. They're all over there, away from you, Because you, yourself, are making a schism." This struck me as odd, and I stopped.

TO FISH OR NOT TO FISH? That is the question… Every redneck as himself on Saturday morning when its not, I repeat; Because this is important. It cannot be hunting season. That will trump everything.
"Here you go" They said. "Here is your little bundle of joy" Like all, I had paused and reflected on my past. At that moment, I didn't mean to drown in drunken thoughts. I couldnt help it.
Not many know me Nor do they know my past Naive describes those who know only my top layer But when one comes truely When one comes with respect They will come to love me as I will to them
I've learned how to speak and to stand on my own two feet
Just like the stars, we'll dissolve into a thousand ashes Pieces staying behind for all eternity Just like the stars, we hold the light The light for which only shines to seem like a mere second That light is ours
The heart beats like a thousand drums When in the face of inquiry to another A yearning soul heard over melodious hums
I saw the way you looked at me, with need in your eyes Desperate for me to come towards you, and to feel your flesh against mine Every day that's what I've done, and what I had plan to do
I have a guard Obedient and spry. Whether I want him or not, Is stuck at my side. Alert and on point, Eyes peeled to the brow. The wind is against me, And he defends anyhow.
When my seventh grade self, Riled up over the excitement of having a girlfriend, Came out to my mom I said,
Chance and chance again, I call upon a question where I knew a friend, Before the trials and tribulations began, We had no end,   You were there through thick and thin, High and low,
This girl, she lives a normal life everyday, she wakes up, gets ready and goes to school. She is physically there but not mentally or emotionally.
Time time What happened to the Time time What happened to it   Do you remember the time back in '98 We were young and naive but it was okay All our friends had our class and the same school

 It’s not that I don’t like the light, It’s that I prefer the dark.
If my life was a story, I suppose, every thought I think, every word I say, every action I do, would be written down for generations to see the lies you give me.  
My most trusted friends are pen  and paper   They do not have lips
When I first met you, I was cliched With tropes and trie beliefs Which were only platitudes Of the firends who gave me grief   About being happy.   But with you I feel free unlike the
Whenever I drive by the the third stop sign on my way home, I think of the fear that lived in my fingers As I flicked my cigarette bud out the window, wondering if my mom would recognize it was mine
(2/14/14 1:40 P.M)  
Giving the world a better place to live, Imagining the people living in peace, Viewing the world through each other's eyes, Enemies no longer exist have hate to give.  
Friend is a six letter word just like your six letter name.
Smiling Breaking inside and out
My mind rolls back to that day. Down in the south, Where the air was warm And when a breeze came,  It was like heaven on earth.   My thoughts echo words,
the first time i met youi didnt knowhow marks cascade down your arms in a pink-white array of battle scars the first time i met youi didnt knowhow tears fall from your eyes before you finally sucumb to sleep
Huddle with me oh lost broken soul.Huddle with your broken brethren.Warm yourself with what I haveand take from me what it is that you need.I will give all that I can.

Why are you lonely?You are beautiful and niceI will be your friendI am here for youWhen you feel like gray clouds andWhen you need sunshine
A hello here, A handshake there, A hug here, A greeting all around   I float amongst my piers, Socializing from clique to clique to satisfy But I am never truly satisfied  
If you have love in your life, Then sir you have achieved what most men cannot. More than, any sailor dares to conceive in his Rash and unreasonable mind. But ay We are just men.
Strangers, begining to speak to one another Acquaintances, talking regularly Buddies, begining to hang out together Friends, telling each other secrets Best Friends, doing everything together
Tick, tick tockthe bell rings, startling meStep, step, tapmy shoes moving swiftly through the hallwaysNotebooks, pencils, paperOn every students desk
I slowly reveal myself- The thick molasses starts to thin- I look to them- I expect Judgment. They just look at me with listening eyes- And that's when I know. I am Free.
Feburary 27, 2012 a Facebook message notification It read "HBD". She didn't know who it was so she just replied with a thank you and went away. Little did she know that was her first encounter with her first love.
Do you remember The first day we met? Complete strangers, but you always smiled at me. Do you remember How close we became on the first week? You always told me jokes and made me laugh.  
I am on the edge holding to my... breath. My movements are slow... scattered...broken, smashed pain throbs--- My mind is thumping... blood, bled through me. My body is hurt.
Waking up to the same ringing, Going to the same place, Five days a week, Ten months, learning and forgetting.   Distractions and butterlies, Taking chances, locking eyes,
What gets me inspired? Damn, I don't really know guess this prompt has been really eye-opening though. I'm just sitting here with some writer's block, if I can make this poem creative I'll be in shock.
Please don't talk Just shut up and leave me alone. Can't you see That I don't deserve
Two people need to grow to be in a healthy relationship I've grown up with you all my life
The New Girl In class she sits, making snide remarks, Her words bitter and pungent; This façade she maintains, meant to keep us at bay, To hide in its shadow her sorrows, her pains.  
Saying goodbye is never easyIt always comes sooner than we intendThey make our insides uneasyBecause we don't know when the missing will stop and decend
Here I sit on this white chair, Watching my friends just be themselves; Wondering when I'll see them again;
Aching when seperated,That, by each other abated;Love and laughter flowing;Together, always growing:Friends.
What happens to a growing friendship?   Does it build up
They stare as she walks in the room     She trembles, afraid, wondering,     Will they hate? Will they judge?     Do they care? Why the stares?
We’re losing light by seconds and sounds With it dimming are the stars, the sunlight, the fluorescent street lamps lining the streets With each blast of darkness           A part of me passes
In those quiet moments when you are left alone, your mind ever wandering, in the barren cold.
  God, he’s not happy, he’s wearing a frown –
 
  Friends for almost ten years 
  If I died today My spirit would pass away. My bones would turn to dust Before tomorrow turns to dusk The moon would still light the night sky My corpse unnoticed by passersby
I told myself that I’d rely on you forever.
My Door   My door keeps people in or out when I Want to be alone. I do not understand Why others do not comprehend this fact. My door represents privacy at home –
  Picking up the pieces along the way,
These are the ones who are present when no ones else can be The ones you trust outside of family
Some days there are people and moments that you just really miss. My indententation for my poems don't work so you'll just have to read it in paragraph style. What is it that you really miss?
Brokenness is crumbling, cracked blue It sounds like pottery carelessly shattered on tiled floors. It smells like a dry, humid summer day.
I was told to make my words count, But to what amount?  
I can't begin to understand Your depression, Isolation. But I can understand How life leaves you raw, Unable to feel, Numb. You want nothing more than to feel Something, Anything,
A friend can feel all your pain Unlike seasons, friends never change A friend is with you thick and thin A friend will stand by you until the end
"I'm Fine."
There is nothing more beautiful in this world than love.But I do not believe in fantasy.Though I wish it more than anything to be true,I cannot honestly say that this is the answer.
Descriptive Poem. When I gazed at her beautiful eyes It was as if the things around me stopped. Goodbye. The way she laughed, unique in awe
From this distance, The outline of her is only visible. Time has made a small impact, But her coldness has caused the gap   I call her name, Only to see her respond to another.
Even though we change, And we're finding our place in the world. We all know that when tears fall,
Best friends understand when you say forget it, Wait forever when you say just a minute, Stay by your side when you say leave me alone,
7th grade, in the middle of middle school, friends come and go, thought i wouldn't be able to make it, thought about hurting myself, Mybe being out of the picture would have been better, 7th grade, a year when my ride cam crashing down on me, nobo
Friends should come and stay,
I see the bruises on your arm I see the townsfolk has caused you harm   I see those chains bound to your ankles and wrists This windowless dungeon I wonder who could think of this?  
Hey, because many people may not know, how much one hey could really do to a person.   So say hey, because you may never know how much one hey could really do to a person.
Life's Masquerade By: Linda Oostendorp  
I thought we could be friends But I was foolish You betrayed me and shed no tears You betrayed me And shed no tears   Talk behind my back Please make my day I know your game
Walking the halls Is harder than you think Losing friends Can happen in a blink   Having stress And feeling depressed Are all the things I'm trying to express  
Trust is like a currency or a golden ticket. Giving it to that special someone, So they will stay and be your friend. Trust is something will live for and strive from.
Fat Girl in the buffet line,Fills half of her plat
Be  my friend. Help me to my feet when life knocks me down. Hold me when the world makes me cry. Laugh at me when i trip over air. Be my friend. Be the one person that makes a difference in my life. Be the shoulder that I can cry on.
When I first met you I was determined to be your friend Everyday I'd come over Just to see you again. I'd do the sneakiest shit To see if you would smile It's the most fun I've had
We will never be just friends.    We will never be just friends because I’m in love with you...like how my vessel of life loves the intake of gracious breeze embracing my body.  
Cold like an icicle, melting stories from your brainYou don't know where to go, it's hard and you feel so much pain.
Standing still was not an option You wanted to keep climbing, so we kept climbing. You knew that I had your back And we were in love so we both knew that. But why didn’t you call?
Always attentive and never doubtful of meThey stand loyal by my sideBehind me to protect from unseen foesIn front of me to shield me from unwanted dangerMy friends, my sisters 
A love I once honed Is now a memory long forgotten; With how quick I lost it, Or even rid of it- Was it lust instead? Cradled in my plams Had been a lingering hope That the past would reverse
Together closer than ever before Finally someone I can tell hidden things to Someone who could finally understand what I was feeling after so long After getting hurt so many times over and over again
  With freinds like this who needs enemies? Big, Huge smiles and grins, But Ignorant to the feeling that lied deep within, Not knowing that it was all just pretend, Jealousy, Lies, Envy, Deceit,  
Summer stars and fireworks And watermelon rinds It was on those sky-blue days We had the best of times  
Beauty screams as is blesses your face, Seeing you sad  With the mascara smudged down your face, Breaks my heart.   Listen to me, The ways your eyes glisten, Glowing green in the sun,
She's broken inside with nowhere to hide, yet she has everything in the world. She's got family and friends and the spoiling never ends. But what she wants  is just a connection. Where is he? 
This is another story that I often think about: the story of the team   after the car crash that ended the life of one of their own fleeing to the dark library and grieving over a death far too early;  
1)  I love you. I love you like a sister, like a crazy aunt, and sometimes even like you’re my lesbian lover, when you’re in the mood to piss off your grandmother. I love you…. But…
Fire and Water Air and Earth Older than all is Spirit   Fire and Water were first to meet Fire so fierce Water so tempering Can't always get along But both are needed to keep Chaos at bay
Everyday I see you and everyday you look at me Everyday we talk we argue and laugh together Everyday i bump you and everyday you bump me Yet it feels at though you have never seen me
Spring had sprung, I was on the run. Looking for something, Searching for someone. Your eyes met mine, Like the freeze of time. In that defining moment, I decided you'd be mine.
You make me laugh, You make me cry, You make me want to hate good bye. You make me love, You make me free, But most of all you make me me.
Rules. Are meant to be broken. Promises. Are meant to be kept. Secrets. Are meant to be told. Friendships. Are meant for you to hold. Relationships. Aren't always perfect.
I'm just a girl, A girl in love,  A girl that knows what she wants, Is just out of reach.      I'm just a girl. A girl that is smart. A girl that knows what she knows, Is just not enough.
I'm sorry I made you fall for me, though neither is at fault. If I could help you get over me, I would, but that's impossible. Whatever you like about me, you'd see more of it.
SNAP. my head flies back How did I get so far off track It must be apologized, must be fixed Her mind must be spinning with all my tricks A jerk? no I've been an ass An apology in bulk and mass
He was special, He was my first kiss, He was my best friend, I wish I could see him again.
Remember the joy, And remember the fun, All of the days we had in room 161.   How we laughed and joked together, And broke many of the rules, But how we couldn't have helped it
As if it weren't enough, to choke up all my trust friends are foe, boys come and go, the clothes I wear lack lust. Come to school and "look a fool" go home then start again.
  She speaks in similes. Using her devil tongue. The way she utters A complexity of evil words Constructed to fit perfectly Into the shape of a heart that beats directly into her palm.  
  My friends call me mom. Jokingly, not in bad content.  I keep my friends out of trouble:  "go to work instead of going to that party", "Have you done your homework yet?"  
Dark, cold, alone. Sitting here, waiting. Waiting for what? Not sure myself. The sun rises, and gives me hope. Hope for a better day. A new beginning. But that hope is empty. Meaningless.
  I have a dream, Similar to Martin Luther King, I want us all to succeed. The words, "We have finally made it" to be uttered through our hearts, Shared by Our differences,
Always thought it would be  you and me against the world. thought we'd be  unstopable and we could  do anything. it's not you and me  against the world la la la 
Is this it? I have to find my purpose. I can't sit. I think about what God wants me to do. Why things happen, and what I been through. I know there's more. While men and women are at war. I'm alone fighting myself.

One glance Two  Three  Stop   A quick touch One flick of the wrist To a hand that's always been open But never accepted   Avoid his eyes Ignore his emotions
Razor Blade   Dealing with depression—it’s a hard thing that I wouldn’t even wish on my worst enemy. Seriously.        Wanting to not be alive, to disappear, and to not be seen. It’s too hard to deal with.
People stand behind me Supporting me Cheering me on They're my closest friends In front of me Are my enemies I know they hate me Their faces filled with disgust
"Since when do you wear your hair like that?""Since when do you listen to RAP music? Oh! My! GOODNESS! Those lyrics are ridiculous. You never listened to that before.""Since when do you think you can come home this late?""Since when do you burp?
Nothing lasts forever. Things change, people change. You change, tthey change.   Even when we know this, we refuse to believe it. We make bonds, build relationships,
Sweet like soda pop, Bubbly like champagne, You make everyone around you laugh and smile. The misty sky That makes rainbows appear, A kaleidoscope Beautiful like gems in the sun,
I never thought that I could feel this way I never really searched for this feeling - None worthy to share it with anyway But I stumbled on it, now I’m tingling
Treatment Bleed it out Like a snake bite, The venom that roils and riles In my blood That rages and boils Bleed it out, Run 'till my feet Tickle with flames. Search for strength,
They are with you when needed. Soulful angels in our crises. They wear wings – wings of love. What would we do if they were not there? Civilization would cease. The world would be so cruel.
Grab my jacket, grab my keysSneak down the stairs, a step creaks: Freeze!Listen for shuffling, all is clearResume my tiptoe, the door is nearGrab the knob, turn it to the sideOpen it slightly and see my ride
Your favorite color is blueAnd all small things matter to you From the beauty withinThat rank a high ten To the smile outsideThat you should never hide
It’s music note coming at you Throwing these facts down so you’ll understand where I’m coming from I mean the point of me stating these facts
We blame others for what they can't be But we cover ourselves in false identities With our selective perception We ignore those we can't see But hide in lies and obscurity It may be hard to believe
This day was coming We saw it from the horizon And how akward it is Now that we can hold it in our hands   But It'll pass us by This is just a new beginning Because we know somewhere deep down
With tears unshed, and eyes open wide Days of class and work and normal blur by, But now I think I’m safe with eyes dried, Yet why do I always feel about to cry? This world is cruel, not one I trust as a friend That has not hurt my heart or mind,
I convinced myself that the world hated me. I saw there's no good I could be. In reality I was the only real bully. I beat myself up and called myself ugly. I saw that I all I ever brought was pain.
You see what you want me to see, but yet you do not see what you're supposed to see. I went home both days and nights, sitting there, fighting my own fights. No teacher, no staff, no parents; no one
For better or for worse, Lovers pass. In sickness and in health, Lovers pass. The seasons seem to change with the people, Not the other way around. We’re all just floating along in this mistaken world,
Why do I feel so worthless? I am lost in the high seas of people I have known for years. Yet, I am found in a group of complete strangers.
Loving a convict is hard they say staying withen here is a price to pay its loving her with no one to hold while being young and seeing old its letting her write her love for you you write her back

  When the blood of kings is shed and the world grows silent, waiting then a single spark of dread breaks the silence of the fighting   When the blood of kings is shed
    I shatter mirrors relentlessly thinking ''what more bad luck is there in the world, than the bad luck I serve every day.''  Bad luck is my parasite, It consumes my little bit
She had a twin sister of whom no one knew.    She impersonated her through and through. She went to school and lived her life, Bullying everyone, and being bullied with strife.  
  I used to steal everything All my jewelry and perfume But you can’t steal from a coffee shop So that’s where all my money went   I knew a girl who took fire to her arms
Need a little inspiration? Never give up! :)
She thinks I am strongBut she is wrongBecause I really just want to cry
You know that moment you feel wounded and broken? You say something easy and fine and they look at you with a blank line.
Are you in my family? I know it's a silly question but answer please.   My family helps me and I help them. I know I would help you, but would you help me? My family cares about me and I care about them.
Love brings together hate tears apart family is you forever and
Life is a perpetual cold. It is said to cure it "Do what you're told. Don't stray from the norm, or life will suck." But I am not a sitting duck. The status quo is getting old,
  Brace all of those that you meet. This life is not certain, it is not steady…But the power to control it is within yourself. Believe in the best in others, but be wary of the misfortune they may bring.
I hate those eyes, That filled the empty void, I hate their soft glow, that promised me everything. I hate those eyes, that let me into your heart, and welcomed me so warmly, told me I am home.
Making friends is easy,we're all friends on the playground We all share the same toys,in tag no one is left out Time to go to a new school,it's very exciting
The time is approaching, Summer breeze in the air Clocks are ticking, Yet we seem to not care Friends and parties are on our mind Unfortunately, not realizing, were running out of time
I am born surrounded by people I grew up surrounded by people   Regardless of being surrounded by people My choices are mine alone...   Through the good and bad times
Dear God, Where were you? Sincerely, Daughter of an alcoholic narcissist.   Dear Father, Where were you? Sincerely, Daughter of an alcoholic narcissist   Dear Mother,
I don't like to be ignored. Actually I HATE to be ignored. And fuck those of you who immediately think that I am an attention whore. I'm not, I just don't like to be ignored.
I smile I laugh I joyously shout I hug I cry for them And they cry for me I help as best I can I pry for those who need the prying I hide for those who want the hiding
The first love poem Inscribed on a clay tablet By Sumerians Does not speak of Candy hearts or kisses or Perfumed nothings That make your heart beat and your Cheeks flush hotly red.
Days pass by and yet I can't stop continuous contemplation. Financial Crisis College problems combined these cause pain and distress continuous contemplation. I choose this road
He looked so sad in photographs; He looked so scared, so lost, confused, and yet he laughed. That tentative half-smile, those distant eyes, portray a struggle, wounds, and damage. He feels so isolated
My problem is that a love a lotI love an abundant amount of peopleFrom family to friendsTo strangers I met just onceSo I suppose I say I love you too muchBut I believe love comes in many forms and levels
Why is it things can never stay the same?Everything constantly changing,I need a timeout in this gameBefore I yell out, screaming, raging.When things finally seem like they're going as planned;
Day breaks at dawn, Falls at dusk, Leaving me alone. Taking away the magic, That once was.  Mind racing to remember, Only to find pages of white.  The painting that used to be,
Just waking up on a summer day Maybe it's noon or later okay You stretch for your phone just to see Message Received "Hey it's me(:" Groaning and complaining you reply 
My private thoughts are my worst enemy Things that shouldn’t roam my mind, do. Eventually it becomes too much So I open my mouth And when I do, all my thoughts flow out
tears of eyes are  valuable   speech of lips are powerful   heart with love is beautiful   life with friends is most wonderful
~thoughts of pain,self inflicted ~so weak and tired ~barely having the will to lift my head ~i almost give in, ~i almost cave ~i wanted to curl up and die ~but i dont ~i cry myself to sleep
The scent of the juice of apples on her breath mixes (by 10pm) with the café cigarettes & coffee in her hair   And she told us that when she dreams, she goes to every country on Earth,
  As he lied, she continued to beat Those watching could only sigh, The ordeal consumed him, he could no longer eat His body, his will, appeared to be weak,
  MY dearest friendTell me that things happen for a reason and I’ll tell you that you’re here on this earth for a reason. Together we’ll never fall short :) 
I’m succumbing Giving into the urge.   I want to stop. Pause. Why do I breathe, When every gasp burns my throat?   I can’t find myself And I’ve already lost you.
Have I lived so long, as I have lived today? For it seems to me, That as the hour swings near, Journey's End, comes to a close. It was on this day that I reflected, Once on my youth,
I have two friends, Money and Knowledge. I met Knowledge as a child and I met Money as a teen. Both supported me but the difference was Money was harsh and Knowledge was kind.
Paper wisps right of my forehead, the sun the left, love – the unconditional kind I feel that gold Still hot when we’re done And embraces are given. This invisible leap our youth takes
what happened to our worldwhat happened to ours boys and ours girlswhat made them look down at the people in their phonesinstead of the ones the ones in their homes
Her eyes sparkle like diamonds, A smile plays across her lips, Her hair blows gently in the whispering wind. No one knew the secrets behind her eyes.
I once met a man who’s very presence sent my mind into a frenzy;his words calmed the storms that raged within my heart,and his laughter was the flame that lit a fire in my soul.
What might be okay today  won't be okay tomorrow. When your mind allows impulses to take over,  it's like you're giving up,  you gave up your strength. Strength is usually what helps me through, 
Meeting someone new is great they make you realize you can kick all the bad ones out getting to know the new, better peopleis just indescribable feeling  hearing their stories learning their ways
When you feel the need to cry, open up and yell to the sky. Share your many sorrows with the nesting sparrows and scream your agony to the clouds.
It seems like I've known you forever But we just met this past year Our friendship will last 'til the end Trust me I have no fears   You smile when I say something nice
It hurts me, more than it hurts you Seeing the pain in your eyes makes me want to die I will never understand it, but I’ll do my best and try But I guess if nothing was said, I really didn’t know you at all  
It's been awhile since we talked, It's just that talking has become hard, Things have changed more than I thought.  
Oh, how your friendship cannot be undone.Your presence does not fail to amaze meWhich proves your worth. The hugging sun is funTo feel as we revel in youthful daze.
At first is exciting then its a blur, pretending to be popular as if you were, making new friends that you'll have till the end laughing and joking until you bump heads although its a journey a clear road lies ahead
To you, Nothing more than a simple brown And then hidden behind those black rims you despise, Yet those are the only eyes that keep me on the ground. You hate going outside, And though I've abide to this,
A friend is a friend that is reliable and caring Very fun to be around and very understanding. A friend is a friend that is loyal and true Kind and trusting and will always be there beside you
Friends grant charming wishes, Friends enchant you with joy, Friends let you absorb their affection, Superficially matters if's a girl or a boy.   Just give those favorable buddies a ring,
i hear your laugh dailyi picture your smile ofteni contemplate about the night they took my friendtrying to block it out but it plays again
the family sat around a table filling every chair every chair but one there was one empty chair he sat by the phone wanting to talk but the phone didn't ring it wouldn't ring
Remember our finger painting years You and me, You and I Friends... Sharing snacks and having slumbers PJ's and blankets Talking and sharing stories Remember that?
I'm never stable cause I'm always replaced. Friends are never friends,its a never ending race. I won't stay here forever,and plus you wouldn't care. As I walk away with nothing,just the wind blowing my hair
So I want to make it work, Which means you got to work, And make sure it’s worth, our time. I'm letting the pass go Instead of letting you go Cause I would never Pass up the chance
Hello, goodbye My, time sure will fly Many people come, many people go Either in large, wide groups or on on their own, solo Feeling very ecstatic, feeling unfortunate and sad
Church a place, where you Draw close to the creator. Church a place where you go to get you too eternal. Church a place where you hear the sound of the beautiful drums. Those spares, That piano,
My friends aren't really friends, they're siblings, they quietly jump my house's fence and call me by the window, we haven't necessarily told us the world, but when we do,
Since the beginning, You and I friends from the start. It was amazing, How nothing broke us apart. Cause time moved on and we held strong.
I love the way the pages crinkle Crackle when I flip them over. The thin feel of oinion skin (are they really?) So smooth I sometimes run the pads of my fingers Down the page.
When I say no, I mean it. When I say yes, It seems to fit. When I cry, It’s for a reason. When I smile, I’m having fun. When I frown, It’s ‘cause I’m happy. When I yell,
What has changed them? We were always the same, Yet somehow we were parted, And for some reason, I take the blame.
When you see me you would think, There goes a strong young man. Never close to breaking him, He feels as much as a tin can. And if you asked me now, this is what I'd tell. I've never shed a tear
They say to drop the past; that it is not important. How can one forget someone like you? Forget the memories of our joined lives? How close we were when we played "Store" and "Newspaper."
"Is she always like this?" I'm asked time and time again The crowd always follows Even when they know nothing They're curious about her As only the physical is obvious to them
The end of the road is coming near Get back on my own two feet And walk away from fear Fear that I wont ever make it to the top of the world And put my worries aside And climb that mountain
Little Little People they come right in they come right underneath my chinny chin chin the view from the top always see their heads spin never in their lifetime they'll see my head spin
Friends walk into our lives, and walk out as easily. It makes me question their strives, Isn't that terribly?
Is There Pride in Serving in Our Military?
crumbling walls in a deteriorated village the sentiment builds by the minute and every minute a new tower fumbles. All it would take for the ending of this destruction is one hand to grab another
I feel the beat Rushing through my veins Shaking my bones. It pulses Living and strong. I feel myself open up A weight lifted off my chest Like a beautifully decorated circus elephant
Inevitable. My fate is inevitable. That last sweet goodbye will cling to my mind like moss to a tree for the rest of my life. Sometimes that moss is so beautiful. The tree's greatest quality.
How close can you go without saying to someone, All the things you keep bottled up inside, Your true thoughts, How you really feel, How close can you go without saying it?
Regret is something you feel from experience It burns through my core from thoughts of the war I cant take the memories that shatter my dreams anymore It grips my mind till my body falls to the floor
I remember that time we met You stood on that stage and did your thing I was so amazed by your raw talent You smiled at me I smiled back
Feeling sad and unwanted. Feeling hopeless and worthless.
At times when things are hopeless; Ones you love are far away; Remember the cheer and laughter From a long-gone day.
Life comes, life goes, this and more we know. But do we see, why it goes? Friends stay, friends leave, if only by who’s heave? True friends they do never leave. Family is, family was, is there ever a because?
He constantly corrects me. He knows how to corrupt me. He never lets me sleep. While he's up all night talking to me.
(poems go here) Laying on your chest, Playing in your hair. With you I am at my best. But I would never dare speak—I would never dare say, The three words that keep—Reoccurring in my head.
The gift of light from the morning sun gives hope anew for what's to come Friends of plenty and worries few are side effects of flowers dew. But as the light begins to fade I see my friends will do the same.
He was lonely, sad, and depressed Yet still looked lovely Everything he did was accomplished so gracefully He was an outsider that everyone noticed Many thought he was weird
Maybe you do not understand that the past is in the past, yet I am still chained to it. Maybe you do not understand that every time someone mentions that theme I cringe.
The moral of the story is, the only way to learn to game is, to take a turn. I don't want to bore you with the names of all the rules, but you will learn. I just won't allow myself to pay for all the fools, sitting on the shelf.
From friends from before, to friends I’ve never met… Like playing cards they are, when the deck is shuffled Same cards, different cards, Or a mix of both.
I was serious. I'm not writing a poem today. I just feel like ranting, because I can't think of a way to write a narrative poem that could say everything on my mind. Heh, no epics today my friends.
Remember I was shattered, broken With only myself to put back together The warped and scattered pieces of me Friends hid, few stood by As I found myself after the storm A girl who longs for more
friends, f is for friends r is for real i is for invintaions E is for endless N is for no where D is for doing S is so sorry
I'll hold you still, even still So trust me and this bridge we've built Made of wood and stones we haven't thrown I won't cast against you why you have grown
I hear yelling. People getting put down. I'm getting put down. I see my friends in the hallway. They don't know what is going on. They laugh, tell jokes, have fun. But I feel alone. They feel like something is going on with me. But I hide it.
I'll start walkin' your way, You start walkin' mine. Best friends forever, No matter how far away. We'll find the means To stay that way. I'll start walkin' your way, You start walkin' mine.
Late fall. So late that the scent of fall had to be searched for in the wintry air. But it was there and she breathed it in as she strolled through the park. Leaves covered the grass,
What happened to our friendship? Why did you leave? We were so young, we were so naïve. We didn’t know what a terrible plight And now we are stuck in this miserable spite. Maybe we can survive,
Every soldier knows his name, Every soldier plays his game. He walks with them every day, But he's been know to wink they say. He is the soldiers constant friend, Who stands with them until the end.
I was strong when I was questioned about my gender. I was strong when people made fun of the way I looked. I was strong when my "friends" turned the class on me. I was strong when I had no one to turn to...to call friend
I’m faking a smile. Is it all worthwhile? Seeing my friends, My happiness bends. I fear it shall end. The stress, it still builds, Though I wish life would gild.
With a force greater than gravity I'd fight for you, Because this life won't mean a thing if you're not sheltered beneath my wing, With a depth deeper than the darkest abyss I can relate to you,
best friends are the ones who will be there for you even when you do wrong they will pick you up when you have fallen they will be there when you need a shoulder to cry on
what should I do which side to pick in this battle in my mind that’s killing me inside my heart chooses one society chooses one and I pick one and I pick wrong and I know it’s wrong
BOOM It broke like a bomb, explosions sound and the only thing I can hear is a heartbeat. Is that mine? Am I still: Beating? Breathing? Being?
As exposed to the perils of the world Thus, we begin our journey. I love this part of the journey: Of nodded heads and friendly shoulder pats Of friends met by dawn And normally a friend ill-met by moonlight
Twilight falls across my heart as darkness creeps like spiders crawl and love is lost to waters fall but when the day was bright and new sun was light and love was true.
Every Morning, I wake up to my father telling me to get ready for another day in the chamber. I strap on my clothing with a jumbled mind. I try to think of what I need but I quit and go straight to my bag.
Jay
You say that we can work things out But yet we never speak There lays this hurt and doubt That the love that was there is now weak I still try my hardest to do whats right
Friends turn fake, to trust is a mistake Someone can swear to secrecy, but its not rare for it to break So watch the friends that you make, before its too late Life f*cks you over but you keep yourself from getting raped
I don't want to be your friend.
It's funny, when people ask you if you're sad and you just smile, and say "no", and they walk away, satisfied, Thinking that they were mistaken That they misread the moment of pain, depression,
I'm tired of listening But I'm willing to listen About the two guys Both vying for you You know I don't Want to hear about it all And get mad when I tell you what I feel About the boys
Love shouldn't hurt, shouldn't make you cry Love should be there when your tears need dried Love doesn't bruise or cause you pain Love should keep you from blame Love is romance, Love is fun
Never harsh Or to demanding Always kind And understanding Never there But always here Never close But always near A true friend Is always dear Quietly listening
New faces bring new thunderstorms The smell of fresh rain on pavement shows change in the air The lightning flashes a bright sky for a split second The moment rips away as thunder claps the same old darkness back
Beauty in Darkness Can you find beauty When its cold When its down Can you find beauty When your alone When its dark and scary When all your friends and family leave you to fend for yourself
The two of us are so not alike, But side by side we are partners in crime Anything that sparkles, glitters, or shines, Will grab my attention, but your more for spikes.
Constellation street is where the broken people go, the ones looking for humbled heroes and forgotten dream. It's where lost ones go when they want to be found (because everyone needs to be found sometime).
~bestfriends I call you bestfriend and you know what i mean I tell you i love you and it’s exactly what it seems we never crossed the lines only in our dreams you’re always by my side
True friends are very rare But luckily I've got you. No one can Compare With the friendship that we grew. Our friendship is like a moon It will never fade Even if it's the afternoon
Some Mornings I wake up Drowning in sensations Unique to past moments And I am buried in a stuffy area At the top of my mind Musty with nostalgia And I relive these moments:
Imagine, playing a gameof cards all relaxed When all of a sudden someone yells "rats" We started arguing about hwo won. We did not notice what had begun.
Your smile is my sun, your eyes- my entire world. I could only stand back and watch, as everything unfurled.
my happiness, though riddled with holes i must admit (aren’t they all) is warm and full and is all there because of you you you you i am happy because
All I ever wanted was to be beautiful. Like new mothers, like flickering candles in dark rooms like flowers pressed into books like new shoes...
I am from pool parties and barbecues Summer nights skipping rocks at the river. I am from fireworks and sparklers, Scrapes knees and bug bites. I am from sunshine and smiles, Ice cream and water fights.
Just another flower dancing in the wind, enjoying the break in the weather. Friends gathering to celebrate summer getting closer.
Friends are supposed to pick me up when I fall...right? So why when I am crying in the corner you never ask me what's wrong How come when I tell you my aunt has cancer you just shrug your shoulders
(A poem based on telling my past self four years ago)-Does contain suggestive language Dear freshman me: Hey!- you yes you there blond- hair tip moron -sighs-
I have many great friends Who care about where I end And enjoy being around me Who make me smile And laugh And cry

I see you everyday- Then I see you every month- I see you less and less. How can we still be- Acting like it was middle school? How can I still be trying to get your attention-
What if all my friends changed? Would I still be friends with them? What if they were judgmental? Would I be looked at in a bad way? What if they all turn against me? Would I resolve the problem?
I’m the person you run to when you need a friend. When you need a shoulder to cry on, to complain. When you need someone to confide in, I’m always there.
True friends are hard to find, Ones that are true and kind. That's what I found in you, Something I have only found in so few.
Dear Lord, I've always come to church, Always believed. Yet somewhere, somehow,everything went wrong. All my friends are left behind, The school I once knew is gone,
Hello there friend I used to know Please tell me what happened Where did you go?
Hello there friend I used to know Please tell me what happened Where did you go?
Turn your eyes from me I don’t need your pity I’m not some helpless puppy Your generosity is anything but kind Leading me astray; playing tricks on my mind
The sun rolls down the crested hill, The light, it follows after. The clouds drift by as sandy dunes, The sky, it echoes laughter Of days well spent and friends well made, Of quests before and yon.
Yellow is the sun Shining bright and true. Yellow is the color That makes up a palette brew. Yellow can be hot Like the sun shining bright. Yellow can be cool Like the lights I see at night.
Well I know what I need. And that need is to sleep. And just as I begin to drift my thoughts began to creep. That's when I lose it. The hurtfull things they say bother me more than I'd like to admit.
Friends are always leaving me, that's what friends are for All these windows keep on closing as they're walking out the door Freshman year in high school, had two friends, to my chagrin
She is unwanted; someone everyone looks over She wonders why you make her suffer She hears your cruel words playing in her head like a broken record Every day she prays to her Lord
How are you? It's awful I don't know. Where have you been? Not in my life; that's for sure Why did you leave? I can't seem to find you. Why am I still here? You left me behind you.
Interrupted Solace in a Winter's Evening Every once and awhile I like to be alone I burrow in the confines of my memory And dart from conversations like a fish from glass
Possibly destroying my own future But I can't bear to see those faces. If running from the people Who are supposed to always be there for me Helps me feel free Then run I shall.
