Only two more days until my time of being 16 years old comes to an end.
I've learned, lived and loved this past year.
I'd like to share some of what I've learned and lived.
1. Never be afraid to take solos, or fight for them.
2. Always remember to have fun, especially in a social setting.
3. Never drink diet soda with mint gum in your mouth.
4. Remember that home is where your heart is, whether if its a house or not.
5. Always sing like you mean it.
6. Never be afraid of your talent.
7. Friends will come and go, learn to move on.
8. Don't go looking for fights- in fact, steer clear of them.
9. Always tell the truth, no matter how harsh, they will thank you later.
10.Family isn't always blood relatives.
11. The people who can hear you when you are silent, truly care for you.
12. Love, endlessly. beautifully, wonderfully.
13. Faith and Grace are two wonderful things.
14. Remember to always love yourself too
15. God will only put you through the fire, to make you a diamond when you come out.
16. Music is the thing that connects generations, countries and language barriers- Give it respect.

Thanks.

I am frustrated with myself.
Mainly because I know I can do so much better than what I am.
But there's always fear that holds me back.
Fear of messing up,
Of disappointment.
Of letting people down.
Of failing.
I can't let that happen.
I won't let that happen.

I just want to be known
I need to be heard
I just want people to remember my name
I'd love to make a difference
     in at least one person's life
I would like my words to resonate within
         at least one soul
I'd love for my rhymes to be the flow
    in which at least one heart beats
I need my life to mean something
I want my poetry to matter
        To anyone
          To  everyone
              To somebody
   To at least one single person
Is that really too much to ask?

I am alone

I want a love deep enough to rival the ocean.
I want a love that will last longer than forever.
I want a love that will last through the battle scars and wars.
I want a love that is more open than a book.
I want a love with no secrets..

I long to be loved.
I think everyone does,
But I've been looking for it in all the wrong places.
Maybe I need to look closer to home....
