I've decided to keep a sort of journal....
Telling you all about what happens in my life as a Middle-Schooler.
I call it...The Apocalypse
Follow me to stay up-to-date on when i post these.
Can you help me survive...The Apocalypse?

Yes, I know it’s late,
But im tired and emotionally vulnerable,
So this ones for you.

I always said I hated high school,
Looking back, it was simple.
I hung out with you and the others all the time,
And everything was easy.

Also, you were a part of my life,
Probably the best part,
even if you weren’t mine
I was wrapped around your heart,
Soaking in the last scent of your unforgettable perfume.
Its whatever now, I’ll be fine

How did I get to this point?
Am I so alone I have to look back years ago?
Or is the future so bleak I have no choice?
Im not too sure,
Call it a combo, call it neither

All I know is
Now I have a bunch of old pictures of us pulled up,
And I cant help but bring back,
All of the joyous pain and heartache
I so long suffered with

I’ll never forget the night I met you
And texting my friend so excited after
“Dude she’s beautiful”
“She’s so cool”
I couldn’t get enough,
I was hooked

You’ve helped me grow
You’ve helped me develop
Into who I am today
For that, thank you
I love you.

Day 1
It's Sunday, tomorrow we go back to school...hopefully.
We've had multiple days off due to weather.
Im beginning to wonder if we will ever go back.
I MIGHT DIE IF I DON'T TALK TO SOMEONE SOON
Please...send help.
(And send someone to do my homework)

DAY 1
THE APOCALYPSE
Robert Ronnow Feb 2019
Biology TED talk, Ken Burns WWII
Multiple choice plus open response =
Teacher cares, out there among the English
Mathematics, fractions to imaginary i

Anything can happen any time, I mean
Mass killing--public school, movie theater,
Post office when every mother wears a gun
Yet happiness permeates like CO2 + sunlight

Photosynthesis + electricity = burning bush
Hot tea, hot shower pleasure perfect rest
Early to bed, no more lies, complexity
Poetry about history, i.e. Wolfowitz

As for non-fiction, most things qualify to know
Astrobiology, search for LUCA, FLO
Minerals on Titan, organisms on Enceladus
Divination on Iapetus, peace on Earth and Tethys

Volcanoes and tsunamis, Big Red One and Private Ryan
Don't stay up late, take your vitamins
Sin and crime being nothing more than
Mental malaise, imbalance. Love and compromise

Tolerance, practice worksheets, brilliance
Prejudice and superstition, Tha's a wrap
Nothin doin, ain't gonna happen, freedom's when
Yes is mostly a blessing and No is always an option

You know your life is crazy
When getting eight hours of sleep is like
a daisy in a field of dandelions

You know your life is crazy
When you get eight hours of sleep and think
you must be forgetting something

You know your life is crazy
When you think getting eight hours of sleep
on a weekday is too much

You know your life is crazy
When you think getting the recommended amount of sleep
on a weekday means something is wrong
because it's just not normal

You think your life is crazy
When you walk around half dead from tiredness
But is it really crazy when everyone else around you is the same?

tell me that i am the one
the one you want
tell me that you are done
chasing after her

speak it into existence
it's you and me
speak to my persistence
i have waited this long

i want you
that is nothing new

why don't you feel the same
i can't comprehend
what about me
is making you pend

you make my heart flutter
and my knees weak
all of the clichés
that i can think

i've never known love
before you

Sticky, molding floors,
Flies buzzing around the sink,
Not a single paper towel in sight.

The busy, hussle and bussle,
The shines and glares coming from everything in site,
No space,
No feeling,
No compassion.

You’re ears are bleeding
Mine are too
Freshman band *****
Honors is okay

A room full of people
yet the only thing that catches my attention is the snow that falls outside.
