Have my eyes really shown
That I am so blissfully alone?
I don't know why it appears that way,
It's weird not keeping it in this way.
I feel the relief, I feel the pain.
I feel it as if they're the sun and some rain.
It's not my fault my eyes show hurt.
My best friend always observes and says I'm sad.
I swear I'm not... Am I going mad?
Maybe I'm happy, maybe I'm sad.
Is there a possibility that my eyes have truly shown
That I am so blissfully alone.
I have to close this chapter in the book,
it doesnt matter how it will read or how it will look,
because even the worst memories get brighter,
as age gets dimmer like a dying lighter,
right meow it will be looked at as a year for hate,
a year to commiserate,
maybe a year to accept the growth in me,
or a time I was most free,
it was a year for love,
or maybe it was just all of the above,
but that's every year I suppose,
just like every poet rhymes,
and has pros,
every year makes me happy,
and every year makes me feel down in the dumps,
its a just a game,
"Of streaks and slumps"
so here's to the next year
of happiness and fear,
love and anger,
thrashing and quiet,
raises up glass to my friends I have and havnt met yet
Lets all make a bet,
to be have good days and bad,
so that next New Years,
there will be something to be a had
I'm pretty terrible with themed poems, and I usually try to avoid them...the streaks and slumps is in quotation marks because its something my father(sjr1000, his stuff puts my stuff in a cannon and blows it oot of the water) says for everything from life to basketball...Happy New Years everybody, I wish I could actually have a drink with all of you, instead of a vitual one...
what the hell, this is good enough right?
The need to tell-- is bearing
My Love for him is too grand;
Heart, Mind, Body, and Soul --
Takes up every bit of Sand!  

Time and Time again we - Talk -
Sitting under the cool Rain;
Hand in Hand we are -
My Heart tried to speak again!

He will never know- my touch-
Nor of my - Mentality
-But he will know me;
Yes! By Immortality -

The Hour Glass stopped for - him
But it had not stopped for - I -
My love! still grows - on
But for --Death I must -- abide!  

My need to tell is bearing!
He is my Heart and Soul -
He sits six feet under;
But yet my Heart gives him all.
