"We need never be hopeless, because we can never be irreparably broken." -John Green (Looking for Alaska)
Look up into the night's sky What do you see? The dark blue sky above, But no star can be seen The contrast of white clouds floating by The full moon shining bright, Lighting up the world for the nightlife A twinkling star pokes out from behind the cloud What is your wish? I wish upon this star, That life could be so beautiful Like night skies I wish to be that one tinkling star, That will set the others in motion To create a wave that will make this night more beautiful

Night Skies
We see the world through our eyes, but there is more than that When we look at someone we look into there eyes, but there is more of them Our eyes are important to our lives, but there are other important things as well It is with our eyes that we see someone, but there is more beneath the surface Our eyes see what is on the surface, but there is so much more we cannot see We need to look with the eyes of our soul Our eyes on the surface allow us to see what is on the surface, But the eyes of our soul allow us to see beyond that We can see into the world with our soul When we look with our souls into another's eyes we can see there passion, desire, rage, and love The eyes of our soul see the important things in life It is when we look with our soul into another soul that we see what lies beneath It is when we look with the eyes of our soul that we see the true meaning of life

Eyes
Apply yourself, Apply yourself, Or you’ll sleep on the streets all by yourself. Don’t ask silly questions; don’t try to scrape by, Apply yourself this time. Try yourself, Try yourself, No matter the hurdles inside yourself. Forget the drinking, the hunger, the pain, Try yourself again. Push yourself, Push yourself, We think the stress won’t **** yourself. Just go to a college outside of your league, Through a stifling program to get your degree. But if you fail, you must be lazy; Push yourself like crazy. Stay strong! Stay strong! Let go of your thoughts that, “This system is wrong,” Or, “9 months is too long,” Or, “Crack makes me King Kong,” Or, “Should I use needle or stick with the **** Silly, such thoughts, with no motivation, People today have no innovation. Help yourself, Help yourself, When you’re in the church all by yourself, Your mom’s in a coffin, your dad’s in a grave, Your sister and mister both passed away. And then a man (more hardworking than you), Comes in and kills you, right in the pew, Blood seeps out and you sleep evermore… Listen to us or be one with the poor.

Poor You
The good suffer, The evil flourish, And all that is mortal passes away

I am brave and caring I wonder if life will get better I hear God’s voice in my head telling me what’s right I see a hopeful future I want to be accepted I am brave and caring I pretend that life’s okay and nothing’s wrong I feel scared for the future I touch pieces of my past to see the future I worry that my life will break again whenever I fix it I cry when I get stressed and angry I am brave and caring I understand that people care about me I say that life goes on I dream that one day there will be peace in my life I try to push through my problems I hope that I will find something better I am brave and caring

I AM
Perfect There is no such thing as perfect The perfect person does not exist We all have flaws Embrace your flaws They are what make us who we are Stop trying to be perfect Perfection is unreachable That is the beauty of the world No one is perfect, Therefore, no one is better than another We all have our faults Recognize them They make you an individual Don’t worry about being perfect Just be yourself

Perfection
Hope, dreams, inspirations Hope is all we have in this world We have nothing more to hold onto then our hope for what may come We hope for the better parts of life Dreams are the only things that kept us going and looking towards the future Our dreams of what we can do and who we can be We dream of life after high school and college We dream of having a family Inspirations give us something to base all of this off The people in our lives inspire us to become better We looked to others for inspirations and from there we get dreams We get hope from our inspirations because if they can do it so can we Hope, dreams, inspirations

Hopes, Dreams, Inspirations
This day is temporary When tomorrow comes it will all be gone and I can start fresh The pain I feel is temporary When tomorrow comes it will all be gone and I will be whole The sadness I feel is temporary When tomorrow comes it will all be gone and I will have joy The hurt and suffering I feel is temporary When tomorrow comes it will all be gone and I will have peace All of the pain, tears, and struggles I go through are temporary When the temporary is gone I will have love I will have peace and joy and I will be one whole person The temporary is just that, temporary But love will last forever

The Temporary
A stable, a stable! Something stable for this horse! Master trots in with a syringe... Amphetamines have been known to work on these beasts. Captured young, raised a pawn, Played and sacrificed as an august maiden in spring. Master jerks the horse this-a-way, down the narrow alleys. The scene of Italy: Passionate for romance- Warm, kindled as Master's desire, Icy, calculated as Master's gaze. Stately Master carries head In such a way that Master's future queen Might recognize Master And find truly obvious romantics. But lo! No gaze returned and Dashed! Master abruptly halts And begins his pauper-ly descent from me, His high horse.
