All I want
Is to hold your hand
Though miles between us
Makes it impossible.
But  I can still dream
That our fingers are laced
And our lips are touching
All I want,
Is you.

The only one
You're destined
To be with
Is,
You.

I am
Somewhere
In between
Sitting on
Top of the world
And
Floating
Helplessly
Into the abyss.

They say
Growing old
Is hard.
That the
Years beyond
Are the single
Most terrfiying
Thing anyone
Could encounter.
But,
Knowing you'll
Be with me
Makes me
A little less
Scared.

Remember
Who you are,
Who you were,
Who you want to be.

Love
Yourself,
Others,
Life.

Live
Long,
Happily,
Fully.

Li­sten
To your parents,
To your siblings,
To yourself.

Care
About others,
About yourself,
About the world.

Cry
Tears of joy,
Of sadness,
Of love.

Change
Is okay,
Is needed,
Is life.

Laugh
Often,
Loud,
Freely.

Be
Yourself,
Strong,
Happy.

Y­ou
Will be seen,
Will be heard,
Are loved.

Remember.
Love.
Listen.
Care.
Speak.
Cry.
Laugh.
Be
You.

This is a poem i wrote in a poetry class I took. I also wanted to point out that i do say "Listen to your parents" but I know not everyone's parents aren't what you hope they are. I wish you all the best, and i hope you all find someone who loves you enough to make you feel whole. If you don't think you'll be able to find someone, message me. my twitter is @tsunamioftears and my tumblr is smilingskeletons.tumblr.com

Take your passions
Into your hands.
Weave them into your clothes,
Braid them into your hair,
Mold them into your very
Being.

No specific date or time for this poem. But it was the last day of high school. I thought of this poem and wrote it on the bathroom stall.
