I watch the raindrops fall,
But I notice you love,
You put up walls,
as soon as our feet,
They hit the ground,
The lightning strikes,
A booming sound.

Inspired by the rain<3

Watch Me

"You cant do it"
          they said.
                   "You'll never be good enough"
                                         they spat.
                               Back then
while part of me stung where the words had slapped
                   a small part of me still whispered in a small fading voice,
                                                                                                           *"watch me."

in a world saying "no" be the voice whom says "yes" be who you are stand up to what you believe in and if everyone on is against you fight, fight with all your strength, and remember you only given what you can handle, and bad times don't last forever, because after every storm cloud comes rain, but after the rain comes a rainbow. but all together what im trying to get acroos with this poem is that you make encounter fail after fail but that's life and sooner or later after the sweat and the tears and hard work comes success and happiness life is too short to be unhappy so find your happy :)

Forever on the Old Red Carpet

On this old red carpet I once laid,
For five years and five days.
Every day I would lay on my own,
But I never really was alone.

The rich warmth on this ground.
Much like a quilt would surround.
I would block out all the sound,
Just laying on the carpet; the ground.

When the sixth day showed its color,
The measurements showed I was taller.
The magic in my world was gone.
All to the fault of the sixth dawn.

I revisit again wishing I was then.
On the red carpet the way I'd been.
Sometimes I like how the past can be.
Forever on the old red carpet will be me.

The only memory I can remember vividly is laying on my living room carpet all alone because my siblings would be at school my mother at work and my father asleep I would just lay in the sunspot on the carpet for hours daydreaming it was the happiest I ever was in my childhood :) so I thought that I should share a shed of it with everyone here :) thanks for reading it means quite a bit to me<3

I am the Phoenix

So many times I've tried,
                             and so many times I've died.*

Bringing myself up every time
from the ashes of the past,
they burn with such sinister intensity.
Because hatred fuels the dancing flames,

                             *but I now know.
                     I am the Phoenix.

Just got to keep moving forward:)

Lovable Ghost

I am
      just a
               lovable ghost.

This name I get called by my host.
Here one minuet...
                                  gone the next,
   Though
                          I never came,
                          and never I left.

I swear this is the best description of me ever I fade in and out because that's what my emotions are like waves if you will!:)

The love of the sea (10 words)

If
   The
             Pulling
      Waves
Are
      My
            Demise.
      Let
Me
    Drown.

I don't know what it is about lakes, rivers, ponds, pretty much any considerable amount of water but it sorta enchants me I don't know:)

The Last Three Chapters

I now close my book on the last three chapters.
Tears will fall, but I won't forget the laughter.
Day to day we worked together; joining together.
I won't lie we encountered turbulent weather.
United we sang, so united we will stay, always
I closed three chapters of my life just today.

The last three years at my school specifically choir I will always remember and cherish we had our very last concert today and I'm just so sad because it really puts in prospective how life goes on and nothing last forever. I know now that doesn't mean we can't look back every now and again to simply smile :) we all love you mrs. R
