Senior year filled with bliss
Senior year full of lists
life lessons we've all learned
no Qur'an to be burned

acceptance and tolerance is taught
things we ought not do
and things we ought to

skipping classes oh what fun
getting lots of essays
never done enough
We've all got pretty tough
after four years time
spent on
homework
friends
experiencing life
is defiantly sublime

getting ready for the future
yet we still cant see the whole **** picture
kind of nervous
kind of scared
at the end of the year
when we'll really see who really cared
to be true friends til the bitter end
through all our ups and all our downs
clean out the friend list
get ready for the plunge

each day is another last
memories we shall forget
names that used to have purpose
are now found meaningless

find a purpose
find a place
society dictates
this is our anthem
that although times are bad
working is all you have

each election getting meaner
every day a little harder
HOPE MY ***
this is all a clever lie

high school teaches us so much
yet none is remembered
none is obtained
vague concepts taught to the blind masses
When will the people learn?

To STAND UP
Stand up against corruption
and illegal government spending-WHOOPS
guess that was left outta the text books

Stay civil
stay sane
Follow the "American culture"
Eat fat
stay thin
this is hypocrisy we now live in

Vote for Republican
Vote for Democrat
doesn't matter in the end
they are the same
Abercrombie and Fitch
VS
Hollister
Same brand
different label

Don't you see?
Can't you see?
This hypocrisy....
is real
as real
as you
or Me

End of line

this is a poem dedicated to those who have finished with their story
This is for those who lost a dear friend
this is to those few who finished reading
a beloved book

To the happy endings
to the sorrow that is ever lasting
Until you open a new book
This is for those who don't read the last chapter
hang on to hope for all its worth.
this is for the dreamers
and the believers.

I hang onto hope
and false beliefs
and lies
hypocrisy
just to be happy
for one dwindling moment
a fleeting second
gone.
the last sentence read.

where to begin?
Where to begin?

I start to write my own tale
one that will never end
add a sentence here...
and there
pass it on to my prodigy
have them add their twist to the tale
here is to the ever lasting
here is to no more endings

Lets write
never forget
never give up
hold onto the pen
never stopping
hardly thinking
letting the characters flow from the pen
just write
write
write

This is me
a girl whose trying to fall in love
The girl who forgot her way

I want to love I do
There's just no spark
no fire
nor flame

He is here
He is good to me
So why can't I fall in love tonight?

There's nothing here
emptiness

This is my one happy poem
It isn't about death or teen suicide
It isn't about lost lovers

No...

It is about happiness
about the birds and the bees
the Butterflies in the Trees

This isn't about sadness
or
coping with depression

This is about the bugs and the beetles
and things that don't necessarily rhyme

In time
You will learn
much about life
that it is not centered
on anything.

Life is not about
***
drugs
rocking
rolling
Making money
or ******* off old people

This is my one happy poem

It isn't about
heartbreak
childless parents
orphans who live
       alone

No
this poem is about
getting high
forgetting all the pain
that occurs throughout the day

Its about
the happy thoughts
magic and miracles

This is
my one
happy poem

I wake up to the scent of you
The memories we share
I am yours
You are Mine
This is how it should be
This is how it truly is

Love isn't simple
It never is

Yet with you
I am happy
I am calm
I am...
ME

I look into the mirror
My eyes are finally holding PRIDE
I am happy
You are happy
together
forever

Lets make this last
Lets talk all night
sleep all day
and **** around
on our bedroom floor

Forget about work
forget about school
Responsibility can wait

Let it be us
that share in this
Let us protect what time
we have left.
Let us wander
together.
Discover
Together.
Question everything
Together.

For now in the winter Mist
in the snow
we may be lost
but in your hand
I have found myself

Lets get lost
together.
and see
what the morning dew
holds for two kindred spirits
waiting to fly high

Forests, trees, dragons
Danger at every turn
Ready for the real adventure to begin?

I am
Lets Run
together,
fight battles
together

Another lover gone
Anew one to find
I go to the ball
I find a prince charming
Is this another mistake?
Could I be dreaming

Too young to fall in love
Too old to be playing games

Is this the same?
the same old game
Where does this fit in?
Where do we fit in?
In this game
In this world
called Life?

I look back on my past mistakes.
It feels like the first time
It reminds me of summer
and sweet innocent love
       past
               Present.
                              future
For now we are playing
For now we are having fun
Where will this go?
Where will this go?

He asks
He desires
     Knowledge
wanting to know
my SECRETS
      I'll never tell, I'll never tell
But the what ifs... cross my mind
Reminded me of my mistakes
chances I never took
So what if I did
what if he does.

Perhaps this wont be
Another Mistake...
Perhaps...

For now I grab his hand
We run, we play, we giggle
So long past mistakes.
Lets go with this one.

Another mistake
another lesson learned.
For now
Just
Let
It
be
**Mine

I've always had thoughts of running
      No where to go
      No where to be
Just run
        away
from all this insanity

To a place that doesn't yet exist
     a place to call your own
Away from all your fears
Away from all the enemies
    We have all created
from the monsters under the bed

Lets run away from all of this
Run, run, RUN!!!!

I hear a shot
ringing through my ears
I just run.

through the darkness
Through the dungeons
Safe, Safe, Safe

Run to Safe
Crazy minds
mumbled voices
screaming
tearing out skin
Cant call for help
just Run

the voices stop
the ringing dissipates
I'm left alone

Look
Listen
Stop

Crickets
I hear the sounds of the wolves
I hear the sound of nature
I am safe.
I am safe.
