God!
stop forcing your positive thinking
into my mind
perhaps I just need a moment
to unwind
Im sick and tired of you
telling me what to do
wallow with me
surely there is something
that brings suffering
oh how it pleases me to see you
with despair in your eyes
not because you are in pain
but because it proves
that you are human
that you have feelings
that I'm not alone
So
wipe the smile off your face
and wallow with me
In the morning
when I wake up
the first thing on my mind
is how much I miss you
I miss your hand in mine
I miss your arm around me
I miss your voice
I miss looking into your eyes
and feeling like you are the only person in the world
just thinking about you makes my
s              a                           i
   t       m      c                 l       p
      o                 h        f

and I hope
the first thing on your mind
when you wake up
in the morning
is me
Today I went to the park
But I did not see you there
I stayed until it was dark
I could go anywhere

But instead, I sat on a bench
and read for hours on end
with sadness my heart did wrench
my mind could not comprehend

My beating soul did ache
And tears flew down my chin
Because I knew that it was fake
I won't fall for it again

No matter how I try
The sky will always cry
I actually wrote this one with my classmate Christine Rabe during Brit Lit. We were to write a Shakespearean sonnet styled poem, and this is what we came up within 2 minutes.
I feel like I am repeating myself
Over and over
Same rhythm
Same rhyme
All points to a time
When my soul began to deteriorate
My poems all reiterate
Simple events that occur to us all
But some will rise
And some will fall
So I guess what I am trying to say
Is that by the end of each day
I feel like I’m repeating myself
And I feel like I’m repeating you
So I’m just an echo
Hello, my dear friend
I’ve come to make you a deal
A coin for some hope
Love
can be a beautiful thing
like the delicate wing
of a butterfly
in the sky
oh so high
but
when doubt joins the picture
it plants a seed that grows
and festers
on the aching of your heart
and I don't mean
to be dramatic
but for me
doubt is automatic
so when I don't believe it
when you say I love you
remember
I am broken
and you have the glue
Have you ever had that moment in your life
when you look up to the sky
and your brain begins to cry
and your soul begins to die
because you know that
this very moment
somebody's making decisions that make incisions
on the dreams, you've had since you were just a kid
remember all the things you did
remember all the pain you hid
behind the mask that you were wearing
remember
                  never
                             sharing
                                          the
                                                thoughts
                                    inside
                           your
                mind
Because if they knew
they'd look differently
at you
