"rowlings" poems
If I had any amount of money for every time I've been called beautiful I'd be rich in every way except for honesty. You think that beauty is measured by the eye? We are taught to open our mouths to put on a coats of chemicals redder then any blood I've spilled and nastier then any skin tone already given. And yet it's advertised as beautiful. Like for some reason, we weren't in the first place. So what you're saying is the way I tuck my hair behind my ear is tactful. That all my knowledge of Harry Potter isn't **** Well excuse my premature thoughts of the obvious ****** tension that Harry and Draco shared hidden between the lines of JK Rowlings novelty. My wonders of paint splattered jeans I put on display like calouges in a coffee shop, aren't they artful? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I mean, the magazines of models so skinny you could pick cheese with them. And the women just given birth going on weight watchers. As if strong thighs and meat on your bones is something to be ashamed of. Maybe influence is something we have no control over but do you mean to tell me I am beautiful because my thighs don't touch and you can see my collar bone? Well I can say the same for a little girl in Haiti. She lost her life because there was no food left after the farmers took her families last handful of soil. But at least she was beautiful right? I want you to stop telling me I'm pretty because my eyes are a certain way. I want you to stop telling him he is ugly because has scars left over on his skin. And instead look at our tactics at life. I'll look at yours for a minute. Every time you correct is a way of showing you care enough about the little turtle to make sure he not only gets up but never has to fall again. And the way you spread your happiness like rays of sunshine with so much to give. The silence is just another way of saying I love you. So wrap your me up in your arms and hold me like you never want to let me go. Like I'm the last girl you'll ever say you want to grow old with. Maybe this time when you look me in the eyes instead of weight scales and eyeliner streaked tears you'll see a girl with a heart full of hope. A girl with hand me down sweaters and books about pretty girls sheltered never having stepped out of their castle. So when I ask you if I'm beautiful hold me and tell me all my little quirks that make me an individual.

Maybe I just want to breathe

do you remember, Not the past, But the future you know, tomorrow Not yesterday. Now at this point You don't understand me So let me clarify what I mean by remembering the future Is remembering what you planned What you wanted to be What you wanted to do When we children We planned our lives As if we were writing a story And like most great authors and poets Such as Emily dickinson and Jk Rowlings We wanted it to be an adventure We wanted our lives to be action packed Little did we know they would be You see our lives have changed We use to be so innocent And we used to have dreams But now our dreams are nightmares And the only thing we can see in our future is the inevitable death that we all will face But we didn't know that When we were growing up All we knew was that we along with many others Wanted to make our family proud. How would we know That one day the adventure we planned would never take place How would we know That one day we would lose the ones we loved How would we know That one day we will lose what we hold close How would we know that one day we Along with all of our friends Will one day lose our lives That's why we have to remember the future You see without the future we have nothing to look forward to. And without the future we wouldn't be here Without the future our lives have no meanings Without the future there is no us
