I look into the staggering blue of the sky
The sun shines, but it still snows
As if spring has arrived
But winter is still fighting to stay
Flakes fall all around me
like shrunken stars descending to Earth
Each one that lands on my tongue
brings me future luck
The sun reflects off of their sides
Causing the air to twinkle
To twinkle like falling stars...
While skiing, i actually witnessed this. the snow didn't stick, but it was an unrealistic sight.

As I’m coming,
You are running.
I pass by you going to class everyday
If I’m here
You are there
You Look every
But will you every see me standing there
If I walk
You engage yourself in other talk
Yes plain old me nothing new
I know I’m am not a shiny shoe
I wish for a moment you would hold my hand
And we would just let that moment stand and stand

Although I am plain
I’m interesting too
I am like a rainbow inside
If you meet me that you could not hide
You and your gelled hair
Can make anyone stare
Doing stuff just for your friends
Well there nothing depends
On how stupid you are its true
I don’t know why I love you
You don’t let your true colors shine bright through.
i wrote this one like a year ago. it was another one of my first poems. i post them because i like to see how far i've come and jsut look back on them .

I am drinking letters
From a brown paper bag.
They form in my head
When I begin to go mad
Sentences are made
Without my consent
my world is spinning
dancing at the event
When my sentences slur
mindless paragraphs are born
They slip through my mind
Staying on their own time
Soon my mind becomes dark
blank like a page
I am stuck in a black hole cage

I wake up the next day
my head has a fuse
I ask my friends why this so
All the can say is "you were wasted on words"

I swing head first on the apple tree
My legs gripped tightly around a branch
My body sways with the wind
Back and forth
Forth and back

I let my arms hang
The blood rushes to my head
Gravity wants to pull me down
But it can't and won't
Won't and can't

As I climb down I find
My pants are ripped and I am bleeding
With my gasp, I faint
Will and can
Can and will

This cell...
Hard and cold
I am hidden in a well
Dark, deep, and damp
Where is the hope that one must seek
Where is the happiness and love
Is there a pure white cooing dove
Or do all of those things leek away
Have the walls always been bleak and gray
Has the sun ever shown at the high time of day
For once I fell all alone

The ice-cold water has an echoing sound
Is it me or is it strangely quiet
Here I sit lost and scared
I am impaired for the sights I have seen
I know in my heart that I didn't do it
But I am here waiting for death
I sit and watch my days waste away
They sit there and wait for my life to pass by
What would happen if there was justice
But then again, what is justice
For once I feel all alone
Taken and without home...

the little boat sits at bay
no worries in the way
but nothing can stay away
from the little boat happy at bay

winds, time and, wave
can not stop pulling away
for as the wind push and pull
the rope looses grip of the soul
and the little boat stray away
taken from it's safe home at the bay

time knows all young and old
a mysterious curse not to be told
he who wears the rope thin
ready to snap at any sin

but it is wave ready to pull the boat away
from it's secure place at the bay
wave is the one who takes it all away
the one who is cursed for the crime to pay
is wave the only one they should lock away?

by itself it couldn't worked this way
help is needed to pull the boat astray
wind, time and, wave all work as one say
wind and time did not commit the final crime
but they helped pull the little boat way
away from the safe place at bay
This is not one of my better poems personally, but enjoy

Fly with me, fly away
To the brightness of my cave
Where we’ll sit, talk, and lay
And you will there be astray
Across an ocean and over seas
Where there are giant peas and the apples are the size of trees
Where the fairies travel from here to there
And the trolls breathe in the sweetly sour air
Where you can travel on a bird
And all your requests will be heard
Wishes will come true
And to know that it is only you
That flew across those sea and oceans blue
To be what you dreamed to be
And know that the have the key
To unlock the door to something unknown
And to find something you wished to own
Where there is an angel sound
Let me lift you off the ground
So come with me and come away
To the land of “Imagination Bay”




But is this place filled only with sugar plum ties
For I believe there must be lies
Not all can taste like candy
And be sunny, sandy, and dandy
What is the other side of the land
That only very few can stand
Where no one will hear your pleads for help
And where gnomes are eaten by elves
Where fear is like a forest fire
And all there are born liars
Who crave the dark and scary night
And the trees are even a fright
And there is no light
Where these monsters have life
Where there is a high-pitched sound of a fife through out the night
Where the things unheard of slip through their existence
And they still walk the distance
Not all things are crystal clear
And looks can be deceiving
While the dark creatures are grieving
I step out still breathing
this was a poem I wrote last year. It was my first long poem
