American My poems are just from my journal. I'm not an english major, but sometimes poetry and journaling just give me a place to let go and write!
I love.... butterflies. movies. music. my family. my friends. my wii. chocolate. ice cream. chicken. lemonade on a hot summer day. watching tv. talking. God. my computer. my classroom. my job. my sister. my mom. my dad. my grandma. my grandpa. love. working out. playing the flute. driving in my car listening to music. walking. biking. sledding. the first snow. chap stick. sleeping. dogs. my house. my roommates. you.

i love...
too hot too cold too many excuses too much to think about too much blame to place too much hurt to live with too much pain to bear Nightmares? dreams? anything? nope. nothing. too dark. too bright. to early to late. I just can't sleep... HELP! too much stress too many headaches too many excuses. to late for help? Pause. Breathe. Pray. too late to lose any more sleep tonight.

My heart...
I hate goodbyes they're so final yet in conversations with friends somehow it seems vital Goodbye we say it no matter what the circumstance but somehow i'm convinced it's never truly final Maybe a lover to his girl on a long dark winter night giving a "good-bye" kiss Just doesn't seem right... Or mabye its family and it's finally time for you to fly but for your final choice of words you inevideably choose "good-bye" More likely than not you've had to go from the place that you've learned to love but somehow you just know.... That good-bye just won't work You see friendships you've made and how they're suddenly S             CA      T      T   ER      E                D across the nations... So, "I'll see you later" my dearest friends, Sounds much more appropriate because the journey's not nearly over--- and I couldn't do it without each of as my associates ;)

Goodbyes
I tried to "defy gravity" But I fell on my face I thought we'd have fun But you put me in my place Now I'm stuck here waiting for someone else to come and right here in this moment Im glad you're NOT the one. You listened to your heart And that's all I can ask I can only hope that our friendship gets back on track When I see you Monday I will not mplay my game cause even though you knocked me down I'll call you by name.

Defying gravity?
I'm happy with who I've become So relieved that you weren't "the one" Because now I can explore my options Without a care in the world. Soemtimes I wonder how you could hurt me so much But then I realized you did it for yourself. You're not who I thought you were... but now that we're done I'm better off for sure! Living without you I set my own pace I walk alone without your hearts' embrace Sometimes you cross my mind and I wonder what I did wrong But I know it's nothing we could control I just hope one day you understand how much you hurt me--when it's the last thing my heart needed A funny thing happened the other day I looked at a picture of you and me and... nothing happened. I saw teop people...neither of which still exists in this time and place. You were there when I needed you And me for you But I can say with great conviction That I'm myself again...without you. You hurt me--bad But I've forgiven you. Sometimes I jusat ask, why? But then I realize that I will not have the answers....and that's okay.

Another one bites the dust...
I've got my "Once upon a time" but there's no end to your story My heart's on a mission-- It's searchin' for you Cause' you were a dream--a dream come true. But now you're gone and my life's a diaster without your embrace I just keep falling faster You were my once upon a time And now I'm alone But if you ever come around I'll welcome you home... My prince charming A dream come true A knight in shinging armour It was you But I guess right now I'll put an end to this chapter But I'm still here waiting On this happily ever after....

prince charming?
You came into my life... you told me the words I'd heard 100000 times before The word of Sod from Sunday school when I was 4. But this time was different You taught me to pray and then I saw Jesus in a whole new way i learned just who I am I learned to love again My heart now hears His call you shaped my soul, healed a broken heart But now it's been so long, and I miss you all the time So....thanks! for giving me new hope for showing me the love, that I am worthy of, for giving all my friendships a new meaning. You're the brother I've never had thanks for showing me you cared And even though you're gone now....so far far away your presence is in my heart will always stay. You've changed my life.

realizations
From the outside: Plan Greet Grade Teach Discuss Send off Plan Greet Grade (discipline) Teach Discuss Send off From the inside: Plan getting creative is what makes it work....think think think...you're kids are gonna love it! Greet make a day--ask them how theirs was Grade show them how to be responsible for their own work Teach inspire a new thought and self-esteem--make mistakes, because you're human too! Discuss their lives, their days, their goals, their fears your life, your path, your fears, your goals... Send off Knowing that ready or not you'll see them tomorrow

the classroom
Always aligning but never aligned the stars are in motion I'm falling behind For a moment it's perfect for a second it's right but then in an instant i'm here with tonight I force myself to feel something-- but i'm just a fool not thinking with my heart trying to break my own rules But things are in motion like a rising tide the season of changes is among us and i'm ready for the ride
