i feel as if
as if one day
i was grounded to the earth
and the next
i was falling through the cracks
i feel as if i fell to the bottom
before i even knew i was falling
confused, i wonder
how could i let this happen to me?
i look around this hole i'm in
and its just me
i am left alone with no help
just as the thoughts and imaginary demons come in
i look up from the bottom with just enough hope
and start the long and difficult climb back up to the top.

Hello, young hippie
Waiting for the hate to stop
Won't it all just stop?

Just as I come to accept my worth
And the beauty within myself
I look into the mirror
And I am haunted by their cruel words
The smile I worked hard to create, fades
As I walk away from the mirror I ask
Why am I not good enough for them?

People always ask me
Why I write sad
stories
Poems
Pieces
It is simply because
If I wrote
About
Every
Little
Happy ending
I would have a novel
A novel of sunshine
Happiness
And rainbows
But life is not all sunshine
Happiness
And rainbows
Life can be painful
Sad
And scary
But that is okay
It is what makes you alive
Feelings of not knowing
if you
will make it through the day
Means that you are alive
But you will,
Make it through
I promise
If life was all sunshine
Happiness
And rainbows
We would not be able to learn
We would look like robots
Robots that society
Puts on one setting
And lets run
Until the battery gives out.

Running around blind
Trying to find holy gates
Waiting for a sign
In hopes that He lets me in
Until then, I run blindly.

Fun while it lasted
Left me calm and collected
Goodbye winter break.

Her golden locks of blonde hair
Were once brunette
Her baby blue eyes that sparkle like diamonds in the sun
Were once a shade of mocha brown
He glanced at her natural beauty
And decided it wasn't enough
So she quickly made arrangements
And the new her was born.

Three
Two
One
Happy New Year!
I glance over at him
And he stares back at me
In the moment
We realize that
Seven years of loving each other
Was worth everything
Pain and patience
Happiness and sadness
We believe in each other
We know that what we have
Is truly extraordinary
And that we are in it for the long run
I look into those emerald eyes
He looks into my doe-brown eyes
The entire world comes to a stop
And our lips lock to our new year.

"hey"
all lowercase
My mother never texted me in school
And when she did, it was straight to the point
"call me"
all lowercase
something must be really wrong
she would've pulled me out if it was too serious, right?
my fingertips feel like rocks
as i force them to dial her number
the phone only rang once
when I heard her sniffle
At first, her words were inaudible
I was frantic trying to figure out the code
and just when i found the signal spot
Her words broke me in two
"Cory died, honey"
I stopped dead in my tracks
in front of the guidance counselors office
A single tear down my cheek
I hoped, no, I prayed it was a dream
and in that moment reality hit me
Like a truck racing at full speed
And I walk into her office
In a broken sentence,
I told the secretary it was urgent
And when she wouldn't give up
I yelled as if it was all I could do
I watched my mother's car pull into the school parking lot
And when I entered, it was silent
the kind of silence that deafens you
And i think of him
He wasn't my brother by blood
He was my brother because he treated me like family
More than my own family ever has
There isn't a day that goes by where I don't think of him
I like to think
that even when i am alone
he is always here
watching over me.

Poems can have rules
Theres a system to writing
But life is messy
It will happen
anywhere
.be opposite of the expected linE

But you know what...
Its growing on me
