The lustful gleaming of the ocean sky,
Keeps me walking in a nice delight.
I am high on the river top,
Like a kite trying to dress up the light.

My fears, dreads, and tears,
Are washed away so tremendously,
That my hearts begins to beat with frequency.

I am no longer the naïve, too scared to live child,
That enveloped me into a cradle of sheets.
My freedom came about,
And my life has just rose to a shout.

The people that I find,
No longer frighten me,
Because I am changed, positively.

No longer do I hide inside my windows, you see.
I ride on to the risks that were forbidden to me.
I conquered my rules I made,
And find that connection is key to fate.

Black and white, was so last year;
I am now a full blown rainbow who dares,
To be strong, intelligent, and keen.

For my confidence is finally in place,
Where it should have been years ago.
I know I can, and I know I will,
Be the shining star, I didn’t know to be.
I just finished this poem like a minute ago. This is my current mood. There should be way more people feeling like this than there actually are.

Nothing is the same anymore.
I feel like I'm in a whole nother lore
My world has been stained,
and I have no one but myself to blame.

They say the eyes are windows to the soul
but when I look into his
I wish I hadn’t..

it is as dark as night
filled with immense amount of anger and hatred

I tried to search for some lights in his soul
but it wasn’t clear
much like the mist on a gloomy day

the darkness in him
it is getting stronger
it lurks like a shadow
waiting for the perfect time to escape

whispers of the shadows
is the closest of listening he can get

he came to love the darkness
and it looks like he is in too deep to vacate
It is about someone related to me who falls into the dark life filled with anger and violence

I do a lot of crazy things, but its just because I care
There are some reasons that I would like to share
I’ve never had a best friend who I can tell everything to
It surprises me how you don’t have a clue
How absolutely amazing you are
You’re amazing, I know you think is bizarre
But you don’t understand how special you are to me
I know you and I know you’ll never agree
You’re always there to make me smile
Even if it’s only for a while
When I get good news you’re the one I tell first
When I talk to you I get nervous, I feel like I’m cursed
But you just laugh and say it could be worst
If I go please don’t hate me, please don’t forget the time we shared
Just remember, never forget, how much I cared
And how much I will always care
I know it’s not fair
But Know this, you’re my best friend
That is something that will never end
You helped me like myself for who I am
You think I’m pretty when I look like spam
To be his friend, he says it makes him glad
Because if a guy like you likes me, I must not be that bad

It was winter
Snow fell
Your lips turned blue

It was spring
It rained
You wore rain boots

It was summer
Sun shined
You swam in the pool

It was fall
Leaves changed
And so did you

They used to say
"you make a better wall
than a window"
meaning don't stand
in someone's way
because they can't see through you.
Yet now I dare not stand
in any one's way,
and more than one
seem to look
right through me
as if I weren't there at all.
At first glance
You compliment me
Orange hues igniting
My brown sugar frame

I have been scratching tallies
Counting down
The days
Until autumns grace

You embalm me
Forever preserved
Begging to forget
To shed your memories

Brown shriveled leaves
Cracking swiftly beneath my heals
Dust which once glowed green
Filled with promises to deceive

My twisted beautiful frame
Will remain
Your words  lost
In the crackle of crisp air

Autumns arrival
Will bring your ruin
But I
Will be born anew
How can I write about motionless, unfeeling, empty white walls?
You write about your unchanging, cold, blank mind
How can I write about slammed, unrelenting, locked white doors?
You write about your crushing, unobtainable, closed-off heart
How can I write about falling, unstoppable, restricting white ceilings?
You write about your deadly, unfair, judging mouth
How can I write about a room that doesn't hold me?
*You write about your past
Glued back together
Porcelain doll
Cracks down the frame
Time heals all
But I am forever changed
Skeleton in my closet
How I wish you were dead
Your memories gather
Dust in my head

Skeleton in my closet
I wish you were a ghost
To justify your haunting
How you press fear into my bones

Skeleton in my closet
Your insides are empty
Why must you pretend to be alive?
You're not fooling me, I know you're dead inside.
