"counselors" poems
Oh, they a strange brew. Almost like a union crew. One minute disagreeing. Then the next tight as can be. In house fighting that makes you question their love. Just to see them turn around and show it. Siblings, only they can explain it. Getting to the truth is hard as can be. Unless you have a young one. Who will tell on everyone? Siblings, only they understand that connection. Parents know their bond. That if attacked by others. They gather together to bare arms. And it's not with any guns. The world of a child is simply hard to explain. The way they wants to go outside and play in the rain. And avoid coats in the snow. And when questioned about , how things got broken? Then between them nobody really know. Siblings, we all been there before. Unless you're the only child. Then you just don't know. This love bond stays between some as they simply begins to grow older. Their motto , somethings parents don't need to know. Unless it's something vital. Then the protection goes out the door. Yes, there'll be fights. And lectures from parents. There's be wearing of clothes that belonged to others. Who hadn't had the chance to wear them before? And give you the option of taking them off freely. Before they assist you to the floor. Yes, siblings. They hard to explain. Counselors advice isn't asked or requested for. Not by parents that know about these things. Books wasn't going to be their teacher. Because books didn't raise them in anyway. That this new generational thing. Where judges and courts thinks social workers needs to be involved? The best instructions is in the book about the teaching of God. Where we see the same conflicts? Siblings, there's no one better to have than a sister or brother. Who had a mother or father to witness it all?

PTSD
Where did it start but by one little cry, one mother's love, one day she will die Trees grace the land, the water at peace Visually astounding, pleasant at ease The lake was open for summer time fun Camp Crystal Lake where it begun A boy and his mother greeted each soul, welcome my friends enjoy it all. The torment started, it lasted all season, they beheaded his mother for all the wrong reasons Emboldened with fury, deep in the lake drowned by cowards, feeling no shame Each year they returned, hearing stories of the camp the man in the mask, machete in hand Not believing the myth, what shadows do lurk no hearts will be pounding, only their blood will spurt Pre-marital *** upstairs in the cabin rolling blunts on couch, look out, he's coming Naked in the shower, Alice did fall, ice pick in hand, no scream or no crawl Squeezing your eyes out or smashing your face Ask all of the counselors at Camp Crystal Lake One hundred and fifty more victims will fall This is my place, you are not welcome at all Mother, I love you, through all of the pain Hide behind my mask, my machete does reign.

Ode to Jason Voorhees
How many chairs have we parked ourselves on, side by side in these 6,205 days of marriage? Side by side at our wedding reception principals’ offices school graduations courtrooms funerals new baby nurseries counselors’ offices new cars and bars. In lawn chairs pews rockers couches backseats and airline seats. The size and shapes of the imprints we leave behind changing over time. The faces of others seated with us coming and going. Always, we have tried to leave a trail of love, like the slime of slugs and snails. And for each other, an extra measure.

On the Occasion of Our 17th Wedding Anniversary
"this doesn't make sense?" "you like girls?" "you're just saying this for attention" I'm sorry I told you I didn't mean to hurt you I didn't think you would react like this you have rounds after rounds at the bar even a year later drinking away the pain so that maybe when or if you come home I could be blurry enough to maybe look straight I'm not saying that I don't like boys anymore Mom I don't know this right now but all I know is that when I'm holding her hand or when I'm looking at her smile nothing else matters it's like everything that has never made sense finally does when she's here you try to send me to different counselors to maybe change my mind you say "it's wrong" but really nothing has ever felt so right people talk about "coming out of the closet" why the **** is there even a closet? why do I have to "come out"? why don't straight people "come out"? why is it so difficult to open up and be who we are? Mom it's parents like you that make kids stay in the closet parents are supposed to support their child the most but I found out they could hurt us the most as well the counseling will never work and if you have to drink to deal with the pain that's fine but I'm not going to sit with you at A.A.

things I would never say out loud
English Reading Math(s) Language arts Language experience Social studies World history Science & more What do all of theese have in common? They cause pain and struggle School dosent teach how to deal with Death Depression Anger Rejection Pain Major emotions, things that people have And **** themselves over But school dosent care School counselors don’t help School nurses aren’t nurses School dosent teach tax Instead we pay it   It dosent teach what to do when your homeless It dosent teach you how to get a job It dosent teach you how to parent They say they prepare us for the future But does it really?

Take my hand, friend just for a sec- let's leave this ****** land of SATs, PSATs, APs, and college admission essays and guidance counselors and homework and pop quizzes and exams and whatever else-                                           behind. Let's be two again. Let's make Pringle-chip-duck faces and grin with orange peel smiles- I'll paint my nails yellow and we'll read Dr. Seuss with British accents in the dimming light of the old falling-down fort of pillows and blankets (that's almost too small for us) Let's pretend               Let's pretend                             Let's pretend That we've never seen the glowing screen of televisions, computers, IPods, that we haven't spent weeks wearing down our thumbs on text messages.               Let's forget fights over boys that weren't even all that hot. Let's sit in my yard and eat raw cookie dough behind my momma's back And make too-sweet fresh lemonade, and blow dandelions (into other neighbor's yards, of course) Spray garden hoses at each other and laugh and scream and giggle and make mud-pies. Let's make twenty different secret handshakes, Eat wild raspberries and hide sticky fingers And pinky promise- again and again- BFFs forever. Let's lose ourselves in the bliss of childhood just one more time- please.                             Just in case Peter Pan decides to visit.

Many people remind us of the Lord. They venture into places we dare not go. It might be the ghetto or the wealthy side of town. Where pretense is in the people you know? They have the heart of the Good Samaritans. Where assisting those in need? Is there only agenda. They mean no harm. And many never seem alarm. But more comfortable. It's been stated many of us live in a comfort zone. Surrounded by security from the real sociaty. Where fear controls your every move? These brave souls acts on reaction. Always seeking a satifaction to the crisis. They have the heart of a Good Samaritan. Emergency Technicians. They have the heart of a Good Samaritan. Fire personnel. They have the heart of a Good Samaritan. Law enforcement. They have the heart of a Good Samaritan. Counselors, charity workers. They have the heart of a Good Samaritan. All honorable soldiers. They have the heart of a Good Samaritan. And brave parents. They have the heart of a Good Samaritan. Especially when we see them stand up to those trying to be mean. When others would avoid getting involved. We must remember there are those that honorable in the eyes of God. When people with titles refuses to fight. They need to remember they walking in darkness instead of the light. Comfortable in doing wrong. Instead of doing right.

What drives men to do such terrible things? Am I exempt from such a judgment? From chaos given and innocence stolen This world is hellbent On suffering, One writes to be left On misery one night is enough On loneliness Oh, how I greet it With open palms raised to the sky Tonight is a fine night to die My belly full of pills Only prescribed By men and women Garnished in white Oh, this will help me sleep with kings and counselors For if you look too long, bloodshot eyes, The abyss will grab you from your home Ode to joy Hallowed be thy name My eyes burn as I grip this pencil And an odd smell lingers in this room The smell of sterilization. The smell of cleanliness. The smell of godliness. It's far too white here It's far too bright, I fear I fear for these students Fellow and brave Taking this test While I'm painting my cave My cave is solitude and I have picked it out from it's mountain Rocks fell soon thereafter Now I cannot leave This was my choice But I have one regret I wish I could have stood still and been crushed to my death Much like Giles Corey I am a sinner More weight, he cried out From his pressing board And much like me, his please were ignored What drives man to do such terrible things? Passion, my friend The same passion for which I sing

Et Lumiere, or The Light That Burns Inside
The cry of the barrel screams Screams resound across the earth's Great Expanse Expands from the lowlands of Vail to the valleys of Los Angeles to the depths of Oceania to the oceans of death and, after incessantly increasing, incredulously stops. Except not really. Really, to most Valians, he was just a name in passing, fluttering past consciousness just long enough to get a "poor thing" or a "shame." Really, his body hit the cement a full 7 hours, 6 minutes before his parents came work from home, not the other way round, Saw the alien body of their offspring, then the corpse, and threw themselves at lawyers, counselors, and more lawyers as each professional debated which lover he wanted as his teammate in the opening of The Blame Games. Really, the cessation of Adam's heart didn't open the gates in exuberant expectation of The true savior. His beats stopped when the world began The lost change in between his seat cushions never had just one meaning. Really, he never thought he would ever amount to more than a dollar. Really, the only question that matters, the only entreatment with gravity, is, Was he right?

We are aware that Adam never cheat on Eve. Although they did sin they still consider a love couple. For when all judgment were passed on to them. They multiple. They strived. And did it all without love counseling. As a couple that been together more than ten years. They never visited counselors to advised them. Sometimes you can get great advice from a friend. Then ask a couple that has visited counselors. And you find what kept them loving through the hard times. When you faced reality of truth that love doesn't walk blind. If you feel the love you have is worth fighting for. Hide your pride and find avenues to make you love more. We all know trouble comes to all of us.

Rehab Again
When lifes cares threaten to drown me and there is no one around me I pick up my pen and write because Writing Is My Therapy When things are going well and my heart seems to swell with happiness, and I can not seem to verbalize all the  happiness I feel ; I write it down because Writing Is My Therapy When I have had a bad day and feel like I have lost my way, I remind myself I will be Ok because Writing Is My Therapy When my emotions seem to fight and my words don’t seem to come out right, I write them down anyway because Writing Is My Therapy When I sit in a chair at my counselors office I stare at the clock and think to myself; I wonder if she knows what helps me through life’s woes Writing Is My Therapy and it is far cheaper too, and I am grateful for it.

Writing Is My Therapy
Angie- ​fickle, effervescent, esoteric, impatient. Relative of writers and hedonists. Lover of spoken word poetry, packing peanuts, and emergency exit row seats. Who feels that words mean so little yet so much, ​you will almost always **** at something the first time around (it's okay), ​the 10,000 murderous butterflies attacking her stomach when she sees him. Who needs the TV on, no matter what, ​ to hear that she is not crazy, everyone else is, ​the time to just sit and read for a change. Who fears that she really does fail at life, ​the huge spider she's sure lives in her closet, ​the actual use of physics and calculus in real life situations. Who gives away advice like guidance counselors are supposed to, ​ away hair ties like pencils, ​love like its cheap. Who would like to see an actual shooting star, ​ Sarah and Phil Kay(e) confess their undying love to each other, ​ the Doctor be happy. Resident of Underland. Acuña

Bio-Poem
i learned it before the subtlety of time meant me to i don’t know who it was who planted the seed but i was a baby acting like i was grown in a world of forced skin you were the catalyst the cure for the summer heat much to the chagrin of the other counselors if you google “how to spot grooming behavior” it was you to a tee but i don’t think you knew how bad it was and neither did i, till i applied your tactics a hundred times. it made me the devil the charred tongue of death and i broke so many people to dust before i knew what dust was- i am only now realizing that i thought love was the tightening of grip forced respect from older boys who thought God was a scam (you were the scam who followed me home weeknights and tagged along on dates, you disgusting **** you should have known better) at age thirteen sometimes respect is ignored when you get it from high school boys (sometimes he pops up again asking me how i‘ve been and i don’t talk because how do you tell them that you had to start again from where they ****** you over?)

you say it's up to me to do the talking, you get a phone call from school. you answer, nothing but silence at the other end. *"hello, i have your daughter in the counselors office. may i speak to brooke's mother?"* you take your finger and wrap it around the phone wire. "yes, this is her speaking." you take a deep breath. "hello how are you? i have brooke here in the counselors office, i'm sorry to bother you at work today, i'm sure you are busy. but do you have a few minutes to talk with me? i am very concerned about brooke today, her teacher says she wrote her persuasive paper on.." -she pauses- "cutting herself," you stare at the blank computer screen in front of you, frozen. "i am very worried about Brooke, she says you knew about her harming her self-" she stops speaking, waiting on a response. you take a deep breath, scared, hurt and confused. "i don't know if you would possibly agree with this, but i think Brooke needs counseling." you drop the phone, in tears. little did you know, that your daughter was fighting her own demons. little did you know, that the little brown and white snakes tattooed on her wrist, were a cry for help. little did you know, that she wanted to be saved from herself. -b.m

silent
After a long day of 8th grade, she came home to be greeted by her two dogs. Rushing straight to her bedroom on a friday afternoon just to open her laptop and put on her favorite pandora playlist While flowing all her brainstormed emotions into her “poem.” She remember hearing a phrase for the first time that changed her to a more mature mentality. Some crazy lady her mom forced her to weekly always asked her, "any suicidal thoughts lately?" She ignorantly answered “no” not understanding. that next week the Lady asked if she had "suicidal thoughts" Her stomach rages with anxiety as she finds the courage to ask the Lady what it means to be suicidal. The Lady’s eyes filled with empathy. Google defines it as "Suicidal thoughts, also known as suicidal ideation are thoughts about how to **** oneself, which can range from a detailed plan to a fleeting consideration and does not include the final act of killing oneself. " She thought about ending her life for the first time with understanding of what she was doing. 6th grade lunch time. Her eyes were drenched with sadness while her stomach filled with discontent feelings. She told her friends she wanted to die. They filled her ears with temporary healing to mend her mind and wellbeing. She did not really understand what she was feeling but with goals to not have to feel anymore. She takes a handful of over-the-counter painkillers with temporary joy that it was all over. She awoke the next morning with guilt and shame. After reminiscing on this story, She realizes she feels the same feelings but has already accepted the help she needed to try to be able to accept these feelings. She wanted more than ever to not feel anything but found value in who she was. Still confused, but understood enough about who she was to just be able to feel the pain and move on. She had never admitted this story to anyone. Not even her loved ones or counselors. 5 years later. She finds this writing on a random spring night. She is grateful, encouraged, and empowered for the growth within herself that she was able to witness She found purpose for the bad days and loves more. She stays busy; works part-time and goes to school full-time. The best part is she does it with happiness in her heart and with loving and encouraging people surrounding her. She became stronger than her bad days, allowing herself to fight. She is proud of her story.

*How the faithful city has become ***** She that was full of justice,righteousness lodged in her- but now murderers! Your silver has become dross, your wine is mixed with water. Your princes are rebels and companions of thieves. Everyone loves a bribe and runs after gifts. They do not defend the orphan, and the widow's cause does not come before them. Therefore says the Sovereign, the Lord of hosts , the Mighty One of Israel; Ah! I will pour out my wrath on my enemies, and avenge myself on my foes! I will turn my hand against you; I will smelt away your dross as with lye and remove all your alloy. And I will restore your judges as at the first, and your counselors as at the beginning . Afterward you shall be called the city of righteousness, the faithful city. Zion shall be redeemed by justice, and those in her who repent , by righteousness . But rebels and sinners shall be destroyed together, and those who forsake the Lord shall be consumed. For you shall be ashamed of the oaks in which you delighted; and you shall blush for the gardens that you have chosen. For you shall be like an oak whose leaf withers; and like a garden without water. The strong shall become like tinder, and their work like a spark; they and their work shall burn together, with no one to quench them. **
