Candi Mar 2019
There was a boy who loved to play games
He met a girl, fell in love, it’s a shame
They spoke with such grace
But never met face to face
Of his love, no one knows what became

Every day I sit in chem class,
I fall asleep who knows how I pass
I eat lots of snacks
And take short cat nap
The only thing Noble 'bout me is a gas

I lay in the dark under your blanket of warmth
Tears trickle out of my eyes
Overcome with emotions, passion, and desire
Searching for the truth in the lies

Feeling the pain in every word you sang
The sounds vibrate through and through
I replay every phase you've said
Anything to feel closer to you

I feel the weight aching deep within
Deep down inside my core
I close my eyes looking for answers
But instead of answers my questions grow more

Here I shall just lay in this sweet surrender
Leaving my heart exposed and raw
Emotions so true are rare for me
So tonight, I welcome them all

Vale Luna
(read forward, then backward, line by line)

I ran.
Not knowing what else to do
There was so much blood on my hands
It was mine
The kitchen knife
Caught in my chest
Guilt
Consumed by
Fear
I was heightened by
Adrenaline
But running on
Wasn’t enough
While trying to stay calm,
Losing control
It was me that would end up
Dead. Because
He was
In front of me
The whole time
It was too late
Trapped
I found myself
Locked in chains
My fate was
Death.
Forward: from the victims perspective.
Backward: from the murderers perspective.

This TOOK ME FOREVER TO WRITE

I love it when she’s blue,
I love it when she’s gold,
I love it when she’s silver,
I love it when she’s cold,
I love it when she’s quiet,
I love it when she’s bold,
I love it when she’s calm,
I love it when she folds
I love her for her secrets,
I love her for her songs,
I love her for her rights,
I love her for her wrongs,
I love it when she moves me,
When she pulls me,
When she soothes me,
I love it when she’s red,
I love it when she’s gray,
I love it when she’s mine,
I love it when she strays,
I love her for her warmth,
I love her for her stare,
I love her for her depths,
I love her for her care.
I’m in love with ocean. Her beauty, her grace. The secrets she harbors, the life she gives to all creatures. I love the way she holds me & makes me feel free. I am euphoric, I can see her now. No caps because I am truly meek in her presence.

Everyone now knows
The unforgettable date
That took so many lives
And determined so many peoples fate

"Sit down students
watch T.V
This is important information
Which effects you and me"

"Is this a movie?"
"Is this for real?"
"Look at those plane,
they're aiming to ****!"

All of a sudden
There was a sound
"Look at the building,
it's starting to fall down!"

No one was certain
No one full knew
The gravity of the situation
Which grew and grew

A few minutes later
Another building was struck
Seems like the United States
Just ran out of luck

When the situation diminished
Lots of people cried
Mourning over their loved ones
That didn't survive
United we stood
Standing as one
Recovering from the incident
That had much damage done

This poem was inspired by the Ballad of Birmingham by Dudley Randall

I'm not conceited
I'm not cocky
I'm just confident
There's a difference between these three
I believe I can be whatever I want to be
Whatever I set my mind to be I will achieve
In the future I will succeed
It's not that I have lots of greed
I just want to be able to get what I need
I want to be known for something good
Not just for some girl who lived in the hood
I love my attitude, my personality
I bet people wish they could be more like me
Like I said before I'm not cocky
I just tell it how it is and that's the way it be
I love my inspiration, my determination
my motivation, my relation
My relationship with God
the one who allows me to see the way I see
Without Him there would be no me
The me I love so dearly

For some reason I don't have many happy or uplifting poems, but every once and a while one finds its way to my head. :)
