He entranced my mind
So clever was his wit
I would gladly bind
Myself ever to it
Unfortunately his mouth
Was full of
Jealousy
It took just a short while
To see he wasn't for me
Yet, still I think about him
The boy who ignited my brain
Oh, the chance I didn't take
Saved me a lot of pain

today didn’t go as i planned.
i lost control around 10:00 am
when i felt as though a lung had collapsed
i had to take a (not-so) quick breather
in the stall of the girls bathroom
where i sat on the cold tile floor
i wanted to cry but no tears came
i wanted to scream but i couldn’t make a sound
i wanted to call you but then i remembered
so i sat there surrounded by the emptiness
only sound was my heavy breathing
and the a.c. clicking on and off occasionally
i wish i could do that with my emotions
turn them off when i get too cold

I’d like to take this moment to say
That I’m amazed by your bravery every day
I’m amazed by your talent and your use of word
In awe of your speech and view of the world
Impressed by your courage, it humbles me so
The emotions you share in such poetic flow
I’m inspired by your mind, your fearless spirit
Thank you for sharing, so that we all may read it.

do we really have to know depth to realize we can drown?
do we really have to get hurt to realize there's pain?
do we really have to see things perish to realize time is limited?
do we really have to be torn to pieces to realize we're fragile?

there's so much we don't know,
there's so much we refuse to know,
destruction, death, oblivion,
we all end to nothingness.
If we suffer still, why not live according to your will.
