I love it
This feeling
Rest
For time is little
And there is never enough
For us to be happy
But if we lift our eyes
And stop
Look for a second
Look at the blessings
Look at your life
Look at what you have been given
Appreciate
What is close to you
Stop and take a moment to thank everyone who has made an impact in your life.

What is left
Sometimes
Is the best part

Not all
Of you
Is broken and lost

Through hope
And love
I became new

Because of...
What

You decide
Emma Holt Mar 2015
Accomplishments
What a wonderful feeling of joy
That takes you over
Inhabits even the darkest of spaces
Because of one thing you did
That pleased yourself
And others
Most important of all...
*Congratulations
Avery, congratulations a million times! You are such a hard worker, and I am so proud of you!

If there's empty spaces in your heart,
They'll make you think it's wrong,
Like having empty spaces,
Means you never can be strong,
But I've learnt that all these spaces,
Means there's room enough to grow,
And the people that once filled them,
We're always meant to be let go,
And all these empty spaces,
Create a strange sort of pull,
That attract so many people,
You wouldn't meet if they were full,
So if you're made of empty spaces,
Don't ever think it's wrong,
Because maybe they're just empty,
Until the right person comes along.
This is not my original, but I loved it so much that I had to share it. All credits go to Erin Hanson: http://thepoeticunderground.com/post/52503853906/empty-spaces-june-9th#_=_

Friends are like
Moonlight
Showing you and guiding you
Down your path
And protecting you
From what's to come
Thank God for friends... This one's for you, Avery.

Don't look me in the eyes
search for my heart
Don't tell me what I want to hear
speak truth
Don't give me that smile
mean it
Don't describe the future
live it
Don't show up in my dreams
become reality
Don't think of me
be with me
Don't wish for that night
create it
Don't close your eyes
stay with me


Love me.

Like a star
Struck by shimmers of radiance
My joy
Comes to frolic
In meadows of my imagination
And with that wondrous gleam
I see the light
The light is calling me
Wanting me to be one of them
I turn away
Knowing there is a much better treasure
To be found here
Underneath me
Underneath life
*It is love
Emma Holt Jan 2015
Streams of waves
Flowing with sympathetic feelings
At this dark hour
Sleeping, quite not
Yet minds wander to unknown places
Obscure landscapes
To be seen with the heart
And felt by the mind
Knowing not of this
Yet to be
But one day the midnightness
Of the world might be known
Emma Holt Jan 2015
To which is so intricate
How can one comply
Tis as if our knowledge
Could purely scrape the sky

With wonders to challenge
And ideas to chase
A marvelous system
Hides behind one's face

What structure so pristine
What components so small
It would take eternities
To simply name them all

And the outcome of this
The results of our doing
A full on takeover
Will surely be brewing
Emma Holt Jan 2015
Perfection isn't real
Echoes through
Unending halls
Realization comes to follow
Yet somehow
Mixed images
Form perfection on the
Inside
Outside
Is only half of life's vision
Emma Holt Jan 2015
The element of secondary rank
Just as you are
Still not sure
But I have these feelings
Can't control them
And I already have
A gold
In that moment when
We talk
Though
You become my gold
Emma Holt Jan 2015
You
Obtaining who you are
And with what I am
Have become
Forever will be
In my mind
Yours
The scar of you
Branded in my heart
Embellished in my soul
Stained my memory
Forever
Emma Holt Feb 2015
Black to white
In the blink of an eye
Unexpected
But you can't help wondering
Why?
I would never do that to you
I know what I am doing
You trust me don't you?
Do I?
