American My name is Melissa Renea Koss. I am 19 years old and I love to express myself through poetry.
My life isn’t so simple and never ever plain I thank God every morning I wake And that each day my love for him has gained Those girls that I call my friends Help guide me through it all And through the darkest of the night Those girls are my life and catch my every fall That boy I call my prince has always been the one To catch the falling raindrops from my eyes He catches them till I’m all done I trust his every word Down to the very last secret My promise to him is a lot And I promise to always keep it Everything is mostly skin deep In the mirror its hard to see This image I look at What is “beauty“? All my feelings are hidden They are mostly masked I usually put on a smile Just so no one will ask Its always those simple questions That everyone wants to know My favorite color is blue You think you know me because you think it shows Ask me something real And I will give it to you I will tell you it all And I will give you the real deal Drama is life but not my thing Of you? I’m not scared I will give you a piece of my mind If you have something you need to say There are emotions I cant control I’m happy, I’m sad There’s things I just cant explain Maybe its unhealthy and maybe bad But things happen That most don’t know I love my life But at points it’s hard to show

typical teen?
Leaving the life I lived For a life that I've yet to see I will have to be brave That's what everyone expects of me Fear is deep inside Hiding all within This emotion is about to break out My braveness is wearing thin This journey is hard to describe Hasn't gone on for long But now it's over I know I'll be strong In the end I know I'll be sad I'm definitely going to cry I don't want to see everyone go I'm not ready to say goodbye

graduation (2010)
I was in my room, doing typical things. when my sister came in, everything kinda changed. "get your stuff", she said in fright. "what's going on?", i grabbed what was in sight. she held my hand, like big sisters do. we ran down the stairs, the louder the noise grew. glass shattered loudly, and my mom began to cry. daddy was at it again, we just ran on by. we flew out the door, and down the street we ran. "where are we going?" and the runaway began...

the runaway
You watched me fall Like a butterfly with a broken wing I don't want to go down But this is how it came to be I knew i was going to fall When you watched my wings break You were careless; no expression Right then I knew this was a mistake You watched me fall Like a butterfly with a broken wing Why can't i be the fluttering butterfly I had once known to be?

You Broke Me
here is to all the stuff i put you through, and all the mean things that i had said. to all the fights that we continued, with no reason? i regret. to all the ignorance that was done, and all the blaming that was dealt. to all the screaming that we did, to the terrible things that we felt. here is to a friendship, that ended in shame. i’m sorry you guys… i take all the blame.
