Have you ever cared for someone so much that you don't even want a grain of sand to hurt them? You know you would sacrifice anything just to make sure only good days go their way.

This feeling is so alien to me and I can't help but feel like it is so wrong. I've never ever felt so selfless before. You mean the world to me and I do not mean it in the cliche lovey-dovey way. I love you the way a mother loves her son, the way a sister loves her brother, the way a husband loves his wife, the way a best friend loves another, the way a dog loves it's owner but I do not love you the way a girlfriend loves her boyfriend.

It's all new to me.
It's all you to me.

The Sound Of Laughter

1) It is soft and warm
like a fresh shirt
out of the drier.

2) A man spins
a woman around
the dance floor.

3) A dip into the
cold ocean on
a hot sparkling day.

4) A light smile
from the girl
who has been depressed
for years.

5) Waking up early
on a rainy morning
hoping for a good day.

6) Drinking a hot
cup of tea
in a cold winter night.

7) Listening to the
same song
over and over again.

8) Laying under the stars
with a blanket full
of people you love.

9) A chuckle and the
light in their eyes
when someone says
they believe in love.

10) My eyes laying
on you.

Laughter is what I feel when I'm around you.
Laughter is happiness.

Poetry

He was always there for me
when I was sad
he would pick me up
and cheer me up.

He was always beside me,
when I turned my right
he was there, when I
turned left, he was there.

He knew what I wanted
to say before I said it.
He knew me like the
back of his hand.

He was mine to own.
His name was poetry.

Hello Poetry

Hello poetry,
you're my favourite place to be.

You are what I come to
when I need to escape
or to run away
or to just think.

Hello poetry,
you are what I love.

You are what I enjoy doing
my hobby, the time I don't
mind spending,
the time I don't mind wasting.

Hello poetry,
you are mine.

People can be snatched away,
things can get lost
but you, you are always
with me.

Life Goes On

Sometimes, I kinda wish this wasn't the end
I had so much fun and looking at
the other excitement still contending,
I wish that I had more to come.

I don't want high school to end,
a fifteen year old girl,
with half a year left
seems like a scary thought.

I wish I had more time,
to be a little more free
but this is all I get
and it is time to move on.

Almost A Year

I don't know how time
whizzed by me so fast.

Almost a year ago,
I met you and
six months later
you broke my heart.

To this present day
I believe I can
never love again
because you
built a crater
in my heart
when all I wanted
was to be loved back.

I may not love you anymore
but you'll still always be the one.

At what age?

At what age
do we stop
making bubbles
with soap
when we bathe?

At what age
do we stop
fighting for
the last piece
of pizza?

At what age
do we stop
believing in
magic?

At what age
do we realize
happy endings
were only in
fairytales?

At what age
do we stop
holding our
parents hands
as we crossed
the road?

At what age
do we start
growing up?

Because I don't
want to grow up.
