SOS

I hear the voices across the hall again.
I reach for my headphones,
I press play to drown them out.

What is it this time? What silly thing are they arguing about now?
Why do they even bother? They never come to a conclusion.
I hiding won't solve anything, but there's nothing I can do.
If I step in, violence will only happen sooner.

Why do you have to fight each other?
Can't you see it's going nowhere?
No wonder you hate each other.
you're never on the same page,
you both feel like the other doesn't care.

*SOS! STOP ARGUING!!!
SOS! make up already!
SOS! ...
...please... stop...

Writer's Block

Mind completely blank,
all thoughts have left me.
No thoughts equals no words,
no words equals no poems.
No sonnets, no haikus,
NOT EVEN FIVE WORDS!!

I hate not having anything to think about.
I blame summer for this.

how i write

a thought comes to mind
I wonder and pounder it.
words come up, then form sentences
the sentences form poems.
some with rhyming patterns
others are made without consciousness.
in order to write
I need thoughts.

THE BATTLE OF EXAMS

As the semester closes,
Exams are stressing our minds.
To help us relax and not stress(as much),
let us pray to the 12 Olympians.

To Athena, grant us the wisdom required.
To Apollo, let our knowledge shine brighter than before.
To Zeus, help our marks swore to the skies.
To Poseidon, don't let our grades fall deep into the seas.
To Demeter, let us take our exam naturally.
To Ares, that we win the Exam war without bloodshed.
To Aphrodite, gives us the marks we desire.
To Hephaestus, help us forge perfect study notes.
To Artemis, may our heads be a full moon.
To Dionysus, let our freedom be sweeter than your grapes.
And to Hera ... ... please don't turn me into a peacock for not having a pun for you.

Best of luck to all, may the Olympians help us get through our exams
*And may the odds be ever in your favour.

my exams start Wednesday! I DON'T WANT MATH CLASS TO END- everything else I'm okay with- BUT NOT MY MATH CLASS!!!
anyways best of luck to all you people writing exams soon, and yes I did use a Hunger Games reference.

stress

ISU: gotta finish, gotta be perfect,
hand them on time if not early.
EXAMS: gotta study, not time to play,
oh god help me. I'm drowning in stress.
help me though the next few days
keep me calm*

SOS.

IT'S THE CIRCLE OF LIFE

The circle of life:*

We live, we die.
But life has yet to end.

All is One, One is All.
Without One, All is not existing
And without All, there can be no One

Therefore life is a circle;
with no start or end
And life is a river;
can only flow in one direction.

To live and die is to be apart of Life.
To be apart of Life is to learn and respect the flow of Life.
To respect the flow of life is to maintain balance.
To maintain the balance is to live and die.

To go against the flow of Life is to cause imbalance.
To cause imbalance is to create chaos.
To create chaos is to go against the flow of Life.

If you don't die you were never living.
Everything alive must eventually die.

It's the circle of life.

stupid sickness

A mountain of tissues,
Nose so clog you want to rip it off
eyes barley staying open
drifting out of reality;
hearing and seeing, but not knowing what
Unfocused, can't think straight
no energy, dry mouth and throat
*I hate you Nature
I hate you Dust
I hate all that'll get me stuffed-up.

name one good thing about being sick, you can't 'cause there isn't any.
