Be careful if you say goodbye.
For if those seven letters trickle off your tongue,
If you turn out of this cul-de-sac,
If you burn the memories of us from your phone,
If you fill your brain lies about how you feel,
- How you felt –
How you feel,
- How you felt –
How you feel,
- How you felt –
How you

How the sun filtered through your hair as we watched it set
How blueberries always tasted sweeter around you
How the rows of a supermarket turned into the nectar of memories
How polaroids of you always captured more than a photo
How the aquarium turned into an open sea of love
How prom felt like a rehearsal for the dances at our wedding
How you fixed my 1%
How 4lifers seemed like more than just an empty platitude

If you fill your brain with lies about how you felt:
I can promise you it will be the last time.

Goodbye, C_
this one. this one hurts.

At this point are we even shocked,
eating tide pods became a sensation in hours on the clock.
please don't eat the forbidden fruit,
else we'll have to burry you in your suit.
all because you ate tide pods,
of all of the detergents this one is a little odd.
please don't e-eat th-t-the p-po-pp-pods



But wait, whats that?
is that what I think it is?


IT'S THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT
a tide pod.

I can't eat it right? I won't eat it... right?

Well.. how I can't let it go to waste right? That would be bad....
It looks so enticing,
"Just one bite" it seems to say.
I can't; I won't. But the temptation.....
I have to; I must.

Alas, the time has come for me to finally face the problem head on.

I shall eat the tide pod
on a real not this is a joke and seriously don't eat tide pods

So it’s over, the end of 2017 draws near.
After 365 days in orbit, another year is here.
Earth has gone through a lot these past months,
Everything from Donald trump
To “Gucci gang” by lil pump.
Everything from the end of net neutrality,
To North Korea sending America into a calamity.
There has been unrest, pain, and wounds deep,
Especially when we lost our hero lil peep.
So here it is, a toast to a new opportunity for change.
Yes, things may get a little strange.
But hey, we’ll just have to see.
HERE’S TO 2018!

I have a place where I can go,
A place nobody knows,
I sneak away there when life's too much to bear,
I am onto of the world there.

It's far up in the mountains and forests,
A place where you can hear birds win their chorus,
I sneak away there when life's too much to bear,
I am onto of the world there.

It's the best place to go to watch the sun go down,
A place where you can see the lights go on all over town,
I sneak away there when life's too much to bear,
I am onto of the world there.

Its the best place to stop and look around,
A place where your thoughts have no bound,
I sneak away there when life's too much to bear,
I am onto of the world there

I sneak away there when life's too much to bear,
I am onto of the world there.

Everything these days has glass
Everything from buildings to the phones produced in mass
Do we stop and look
Or do our eyes our phones hook
I encourage you to Look around
To see beyond the glass
To see the beauty that is the world

Some of the poems are depressing,
Some are messy and others are pressing.
Some glimpses of dreams,
Others tell the stories of people who gleam.
Some people may seem sad
Other look at life and are glad.
When you right a a few lines,
they mix to make a story like grape vines.
So go ahead, write wha ever it is you want,
your dreams, wants, memories, whatever
I challenge you
Go ahead, be inspired

Roblox is better than Minecraft
Minecraft should be called minecrap
In Roblox you can play so many games
Minecraft's one is very lame
Who else plays Roblox
