I’m not that happy
And love is far from reach
Life has been quite ******
And life has ****** my soul out like a leech

I’m not far behind
And love is there
Life has taken my love and wasn’t kind
And life goes on like it doesn’t care

I’m truly upset
And love is truly a lie
Life has no story that is set
And life goes on with a smile

The love and life wasn’t for me
I didn’t get to blossom as a cherry tree

The soft soothing sound of fire within
The calming of the night and air
The breeze of affection when I see your grin
It’s a beautiful thing, and makes me care

Your voice is that can’t simply be ignored
The truth you speak has impacted me
I truly admire you like an award.
Just your presence is enough to make me glee

The love goes beyond words of heart
To stars that sit among us
This is truly a piece of art
Not even words would discuss

You’ve seen my scars and sin
But your still here
I must thank you for being my lens
You’ve stayed though it all my dear

The greenery around is overgrown
The flicker of a flame
I will watch it burn, alone.
And once it’s is gone I’ll be to blame

This flame brought fire
Where is water?
And I’m lying tired
I lie as it gets hotter

The fire holds my reflection
Am I burning or is my past?
The green had so much affection
And now to the furious flames it was cast

The only thing left is imperfect, hot coals
This only goes on in a loophole

In the night sky
Was a moon shining bright
In the night sky
Was all kinds of lights
But This moon was broken
And still floating
My head is full and I’m heartbroken
Im going to give up
But not anymore
This moon filled my cup
Even with my head at war
The broken moon stayed afloat
And so will I keep going
for the moon was a lifeboat
And I’m not stoping because the moon is still glowing

The aroma filled with a thick smoke
The campfire vastly burning the oak
The feeling of the soft breeze
The sound of the shuffling trees
The guitar, wind, and people singing
The two hammocks swinging
The laughing and gleeful smiles
The joyous break from life’s trials
The moon shining in the sky
The moonlight’s glare in my eye
The stars twinkling bright
The wounds healed to a perfect night

Change.
a storm,
That comes fast
Raging inside.
What you make it
the difference between

Life and death
The power of change
is like cookies
Sweet and nice
Or burnt and bad

Change is what you make it.
It is a flower
Loving, caring, and sweet.
Is the life of change

Change can be tough
and stubborn like people and
Mean, bad, and annoying
The death of change can be

The roller coaster
Change brings
The up and down
Side to side
The crazy ride
The difference it makes
Inside you and me
This was the poem I wrote to present in front of all the Advanced 7th grade classmates

It was written in 7th grade btw

A sense of time
A simple watch
One that is mine

It’s not gold
Nor sliver
It’s not even old

The gift of time
Makes me glee
But it’s not mine

The time is shared
And so is my joy
Soon I will be lose what was so deeply cared

For it’s not mine to keep
I will follow this path
Until it makes me weep.

This simple watch didn’t cost
It was a gift from a friend
and it has me truly lost
