Poet Introduction
Writing was not always a thing I did but once I found it in me it was ever so hard to walk away. Now a novice I am but discouraged I'm not for I know I have much to learn and I have a young soul...
things change in one second~
There had been screams for hours. It seemed to be that her pain would not end any time soon. So many months ago it was that she gave us all the wonderfully scary news that changed everyone's lives.
"Hang in there sweetie, just a little bit more" cheerful words from everyone to give her strength. I was the only one to not cheer up for her. Sitting in the corner of that white room that had more people than it could bear.
Thinking back to all the nights I held her in my arms telling her not to surrender her life,...

Summer fling
It wasn't supposed to happen this way
We didn't know each other prior to summer;
I wasn't supposed to fall so deep
and now I see you even in my slumber.
You were there in every party I went to,
Summer had arrived and everyone was there,
I looked at you from day one
did you find me attractive at all?
Come join me to another party, one night you said,
out of the blue like a shooting star in the middle of the night
It will be more fun than this and won't leave your sight,
you promised as your fingers interlocked with mine.

Welcome home
The sky is bright blue
and the sun shines bright over my head.
The desert land expands past the horizon
And becomes one with the edge of today.
We might have not had the chance
to say goodbye my dear friend,
but one day we will see each other again,
And the roses that we planted
will have bloomed into beautiful bouquets.
This is the time we must embrace
To make it our very own
The universe is on our side
And even the desert blesses us with a smile.
Looking down from this small window I see
Something you almost never would've guessed...

The universe is on our side
And even the desert blesses us with a smile.

Society is isolating of from humanity and making us lazy!
I believe technology makes our society lazy by keeping us isolated from humanity. Technology has caused growing children to refuse social skills; as a psychological study shows that for the past decade, children have been increasingly less inclined to play outside as they have become accustomed to do everything through technology from playing video games to interacting with other people through social media. Children are losing the ability to communicate, bringing about a generation unable to socialize and interact effectively. Our society is customizing the coming generation into a world...

the end of it all
Across the dinner table you stand
With your arms crossed against your chest
You tell me you've had enough
That you will not take another stab.
Everything around us goes flying away
The table, the chairs, all the silverware,
Nothing's left behind or underneath,
And all you are able to say is that nothing's fair.
I tried to warn you my dear
That this was not meant to be from the beginning,
But you cared not to listen
So now we're dying alone, in this dark room.
With your arms crossed against your chest
You tell me you've had enough
That you will not take another stab.

And all you are able to say is that nothing's fair.

But you cared not to listen
So now we're dying alone, in this dark room.

love?
If you love someone
And you let them go,
You will become
Just like everybody else.
Everyone needs their own space
But that should not be confused
With pushing someone away
Just because you're scared of being used.
People break up and break down
And the true love begins with two
Friends who want more for the other
And being there when the other one needs them too.

I love you without words...
I don't know when you'll read this, but I wanted to tell you...that you have become one of my dearest friends
And I would do anything to be there for you, like I would be for my dearest friends.
But I also feel...I need to tell you that, although you are one of the few dearest friends I have made, you hold a special part in my heart. A part of my heart I thought I knew, but you showed me there was so much more to it.
Your friendship is one that I cherish the most, maybe because it took so long to grow, or maybe just because you impacted my life so hard it has left a...

could it be?
want to believe that it's me
That it's me you're talking about.
I want to believe that you still,
That you still feel what I still do.
But let's get things right
We're just friends now
So let's make sure we know
We can make it to the light.
Together or apart
Our hearts will find a way
Together or apart
To overcome somehow this pain.
That it's me you're talking about.

Together or apart

Friends
Sometimes you hurt
And you think you're alone,
But if you open your eyes
You'll see me by your side.
You have a friend in me
And I know I have a friend in you,
So if we just trust in one another,
We could make our own dreams come true.
have faith and believe!
Things will be better in the end,
Have strength and you'll achieve
Everything you've wanted to my friend!
And you think you're alone,
But if you open your eyes
You'll see me by your side.
You have a friend in me
And I know I have a friend in you,
So if we just trust in one another,
We could make our own dreams come true.
have faith and believe!
Things will be better in the end,
Have strength and you'll achieve
Everything you've wanted to my friend!

what my lips won't say
These lips have been touched
For the last time by you
My torturous silence
My forever darkness.
These lips have been kissed
So many times in this life
By lovers and a soul mate
By the coldness of heartache.
These lips had to fake
So many times happy smiles
Hiding our true desire
So many times undercover..
For the last time by you
My torturous silence
My forever darkness.
These lips have been kissed
So many times in this life
By lovers and a soul mate
By the coldness of heartache.
These lips had to fake
So many times happy smiles
Hiding our true desire
So many times undercover..

Is this a true journal? Or is it all in my mind? I can’t seem to be able to grasp what is true and what is not anymore; my mind has played so many tricks on me that I feel stupid to try to fight against it now. I sit here in this desk, clicking the keys making up words that turn into sentences and paragraphs; never knowing if it’s what I truly want to say.
Is this all I have to offer? It appears to be so, for this is what I find myself doing a little too often, taking away the time to actually do what I’m supposed to in this place. But then again, wasn’t it all just a dream of...

Relapse
You call me babe and I melt
Thinking there's something more;
You call me love and I fly
Thinking this illusion is real.
That I can hope again,
For anything to mean something,
I want this to mean something;
Your something's my everything.
How stupid am I?
I thought I was finally moving forward
And moving on from this love.
But a single drunken move of yours
Tore all my work to the ground,
Opening these deep deep scars
And bleeding my heart out slowly.
Bringing me once again this pain
That follows me everywhere...
Thinking there's something more;
You call me love and I fly
Thinking this illusion is real.
That I can hope again,
For anything to mean something,
I want this to mean something;
Your something's my everything.
How stupid am I?
I thought I was finally moving forward
And moving on from this love.
But a single drunken move of yours
Tore all my work to the ground,
Opening these deep deep scars
And bleeding my heart out slowly.
Bringing me once again this pain
That follows me everywhere...
