It is easier to dislike,
to hate,
to hide,
than it is to realize
YOU are the reason
that curve,
crooked tooth,
or scar,
are deemed flaws.

Accept your responsibility
as a creative being.
Adapt your perception
to one of appreciation.

That curve...
is from giving life.
That crooked tooth...
helps you whistle.
That scar...
tells a story.

Love your flaws,
they make you, you.
Release some guffaws,
as perception you redo!

She
She said she was fine
But he knew her lies

She would always smile
But he knew it lasted only a while

She thought nobody knew she exists
But he put her at the top of his list

She broke down after school
But he tried to help. she called him a fool

She doesnt notice he hurts too
But hes the one who cared and knew

She doesnt know why he died
But he was only protecting her life

She found a letter adressed to her
But he knew it hurt her worse

She figured out how he felt
But he was gone and without help

She found how he had met his demise
But he had stabbed the guy from whom she had to hide

She had always been harassed
But he saw the gun and felt the blast

She had loved him back
But he would never know that little fact

She can now sleep at night
Not having to hide and be in fright
But he payed the ultimate price
Caring for her with his own life.

I was always warned
About the monsters below the bed
But no one ever told me
About the demons in my head

I used to always run
From the creatures in the night
But the true evils I can't run from
For it's my mind I have to fight

I thought the monsters were real
And they scared me, so I'd hide
But now I know, the evils I can't see
Are a much much bigger deal
Thought I'd try some rhyming...
It still needs some work though, so I'll probably edit it later
Suggestions are appreciated :)

Sun
The sun shines every single day
   No matter what
      Even through rain
         So why cant you do the
          same                              
            Everyone shines in their
              very                  
               Own way
            Even through the snow        
         Surrounded by the cold
      Eventually youll know
   Nothing stays. It all goes
The only way you should stay
   Is
      Shining
         Every
            Single
               Day.

How do you know?

Where the lovers go?

Do they run, towards the setting sun?

Or secretly meet where the water kisses their feet?

Or perhaps bathe in the light, feeling more than alright.

Where ever the lovers may be, I hope they get a chance to come get me.
