I just want to matter
Maddy Nov 2012
I want to explore the jungles in Africa and sip tea with the queen
I want to do things my parents think obscene
I want to learn French and kiss like them too
I want to be and listen and see to things you'll never do
I just want to matter .

This Poem Sucks
Maddy Nov 2012
Every time she closes her eyes
She sees a the man who said good bye
Once he smiled and told her lies
But it was this that led to her demise
And even now she still cries
Because he's the one who made her wise

Be Proud
Maddy Nov 2012
Why can’t be all learn we don’t have to fit in?
That we shouldn’t be judged on sexuality or skin?
Anyone who thinks they have found their match
Should be **** proud and hope that it lasts.

High School
Maddy Nov 2012
“High school is the best years of your life”*
Well if that’s the case then hand me a knife
If this is as good as it gets then I’m *******
I’m just being honest; I don’t mean to be rude
But I dream of a day without teachers or books
Or jocks and cheerleaders and their **** good looks
I’m done with the stoners, the losers, and geeks
Thank God this whole thing will end in a few short weeks.

Love Does
Maddy Nov 2012
Love blinds
Unwinds
Spellbinds
Love fails
Prevails
Unveils
Love distresses
Undresses
Possesses
Loves tries
Flies
Dies

Mr California
Maddy Nov 2012
You stole my heart,
So I stole a kiss
And just for a second
I might barely miss
The stubble on your cheek
And the touch that
Made me so weak
You came into my life
With no notice at all
No fanfare or bells
Went off when you called
But little by little
You broke into my heart
And now it’s a shame
I didn't fall from the start
I had no idea
I’d be the one that you’d choose
Nor did I know
I’d be the one that would lose
But still today
I would pay that price
Just for the chance
To just kiss you twice
The first for the nerves
When I’d try to be brave
And the second to remember---
It’s the kiss I would save
I’d keep in my heart
Where I’d never forget
The look in your eyes
And that last sunset

— The End —
