P r o b i n g into my feelings and thoughts only grew u s  apart
Hope for change in the way that
                                                       I am
                                           only caused us pain
You had told me love would change me but you never took into account all the

                                                                ­                                      we never knew about
Day after day of trying the same things only ended in
                                                                ­                           disappointment
                                                                ­                                                     despair
                                                         ­                                                                 ­       and hatred
When our faith in what could be achieved

and our love

I wrote this on Friday the 12th of April

So yeah....I hope you like the poem and the format I put it in.

There are certain parts of it that I am unhappy with so I'll probably edit it later on.

Starts out awful
Continues on the same destructive path
reaching the end, you either fall off or return the way you arrived
and chose a method that lets you sleep at night
Held on too tight
perhaps I just waited too long
Sulking in my own world filled with despair
wondering what I truly deserved if not the worst
While entertained in my thoughts reality woke and got away
it was hard to catch it and beg it to stay
So I just let it go and slept the days away

I know, I know.....awful poem. I was trying show a specific message but it did not go so well.....

I am** what I hope
I wonder how many stars the sky holds
I hear the world whispering
I see people changing
I want what is fair
I pretend to look clearly through looking glass
I feel like the world does not care but just rather stare
I touch the lives of no one I know
I worry they would not care if I go
I cry for the past because the future has arrived
I understand the problems at hand
I say I don't care if anyone ever shows me what love truly is but
I dream someday someone will adore me as much as I adore them
I try my best but I fail anyways
I hope what the future has in mind for me completes my life perfectly
So the beginning to each of those sentences came from a worksheet we had to fill in for guidance in the beginning of the year. I bolded the part that came from the worksheet and the rest is what I filled in. I decided to go deeper into each one and this was the result. I then transferred it into my poetry notebook which I recently went through and decided to post it on here. It's not really a poem but....

On another note I took this long personality test and when I read the results I was surprised to find that it described me pretty accurately. I mean I'm not one to take personality tests or anything but I was on stumbleupon and stumbled onto the website. Here are the results because I figured you read my poetry so why not learn what I'm really like.

You're a Seeker. You're a warm and generous soul with lots of natural empathy. You enjoy making deep connections and are really tuned in to how those around you are feeling.

A sensitive soul with an expressive nature, you tend to be a romantic at heart. Sometimes you love nothing more than escaping into your very own dreamworld. Spontaneous new experiences can be inspiring to you, and you like exploring your creative side from time to time.

Right now, you may feel like life's a bit boring. You're stuck in the same old routine and could probably do with a bit of a change.

When it comes to making change in your life, it may be that it's time for a change of scene. If moving isn't an option, then why not think about little changes you can make around the home to freshen things up? There's lots you can do that won't break the bank.

It's important for you to remember to tap into your inner strength and to believe in yourself. Take on new challenges and stay stimulated so you remain enthusiastic and inspired by life. As a Seeker, you get excited by new ideas. You like adventure and original experiences that stimulate and challenge your status quo. Stay inspired with a rich mix of activities, and find time for hobbies that allow you to explore your creative side. Learn to recognise when you need variety in your life, and then incorporate it into your daily plans.

You understand the importance of quiet reflection on your deepest hopes and desires. Your faith is a wonderful gift that gives you strength and support in everything you do. Make sure you have the confidence to carve out that space for yourself however busy your schedule may be.

Trying to impress the people all around me but forgetting what is acting and reality
Feeling lost in my pretending world and having trouble finding myself
Who could not say when sorrow arrived I did not run the other way?
When happiness arrived I came to greet it but where was I when sorrow occupied the space where happiness now stands?
I was nowhere
I could not be found
Lost in my pretending world safe and sound
I came about when sorrow fled and happiness came instead
The place that I had escaped to, distant
The safety it provided, missed
The child of imagination, gone
Well I wrote this a bit ago and was going through my notebook when I found this poem and decided to post it.

Sometimes I see myself as alright and am glad to think that a future is in sight
Sometimes I see myself as so awful I began to regret the thought of another day
Sometimes I see what remains of the past because in my mind it never healed
And at times I just shut out what anyone ever says about me because what I think of myself is far worse
Anyways yeah so I wrote this I don't really have anything to say about it but I wrote it with the hope that it speaks for how someone is feeling at the moment.

*Do not *alter* this*

Earliest memories are the sweetest but once knowledge steps in deception is all that stays
Lies filled with care and limits set by fear
The truth left a bitter taste for those who had to eat their words
All those sad lovers grew into thinking they would never care for the light of a suitor's eyes
True love will be found in time to those who live to see it
So yeah... I wrote this in art class.
I have a ten day break from school so hopefully I'll get some writing done. I actually got some books I really want to read so maybe I can get a chance to read those.
