Poems - The Road Not Taken (yea, its popular...But it has a great meaning)
Also my Shakespearean Sonnet(:
Faithful ally I had considered you.
You never see the pain that you bring forth.
Contradict me and call my words untrue.
Retaliation isn't what it's worth.
Conclusions are always so unwanted.
Sides are formed and once said best friends rebel.
Victories are ever greatly flaunted.
Disengaged are forced into a living hell.
Losses causing so much desperation.
Personalities collide and all is lost.
Both parties facing so much frustration.
Is the result ever worth what it cost?
Conflicts culminate and someones parting.
Are such arguments even worth starting?
- Yours Truly(:
I Just Want to be Me
You think that they'll always be there
Through it all.
But you can't always rely on them
To catch you when you fall.
Sometimes you find yourself
Lost in the crowd.
Doing all that you can
But never making them proud.
You follow each step
That everyone takes-
You're living your life for them,
But as a fake.
They lie to you,
You lie to them.
When will you realize,
You can do whatever you want to do?
When you finally stand up,
You find yourself pushed back down.
And you're left all alone,
With nothing but a frown.
Nobody cares
About what you have to say,
In this life,
It only goes their way.
Nobody cares,
What you want to do.
For they rule everyone,
Including you.
Nobody knows what it's
Like,
To sit home and be
Alone tonight.
And nobody knows what
It's like,
To never have anything ever go right.
But young girl, stop your crying,
Stop all your tears.
No one can help you,
You just have to get over your fears.
Stand up to those,
Who put pressure on you.
Let them know what it is
That you want to do.
If they laugh,
Then you laugh, too.
If they point,
Just point back at you.
Let them know you're sick
OF always following them around,
That you don't want to be,
Just another background sound.
You'll feel much better,
After conquering your fear.
But you'll still be looking,
For someone to be near.
Someone will come,
They eventually do.
'Cause after you stood up,
They'll be looking up to you.
Just take a lesson from this.
Never let anyone tell you how to live your life,
Or who you should be.
Just smile and say back to them,
"I just want to be me."

Silent Scream
Outside, you see me smiling
And floating through each day,
A little tired, a little thin,
But overall, okay.
But you don't hear my anguished thoughts
Which surface every night.
They plague me, haunt me, torment me
'Til I'm too weak to fight.
And so, next day, I come to school
With deeply shadowed eyes.
I smile, laugh and speak on cue,
Living a pack of lies.
A silent scream echoes inside,
Reaction to my lie -
'Til with no warning, it erupts
And I crumble down and cry.
Come find me, help me, make it stop -
No! Keep out, go away!
For if you come, I've no control
Over the words I say.
Can't you hear my silent scream,
Decipher what I hide?
So come and ask me what is wrong,
Come sit down by my side.
If nothing else, then please read through
This tangled web I weave.
For you are really not the one
I'm trying to deceive.
Help me - I don't know what I want
I've lost my guiding light.
Please hold me, let me cry and say
Somehow, you'll make it right.
Perhaps, deep down, I know what's wrong,
What keeps me up awake.
What is the source of all my tears
And ever-there heartache
But not yet can I face it,
Or maybe I just won't.
Please, someone, help me understand -
God only knows I don't.

If Roses Can Be….
If roses can be
Yellow
Pink
Red
White
And still be roses
If hair can be
Blonde
Brunette
Black
And still be hair
If eyes can be
Green
Blue
Brown
Hazel
And still be eyes
Then why can't humans be
Hispanic
Asian
And still be accepted?
Why can't people be
Special
Different
Unique
Original
And still be people?
And still be roses…

One Cut
"One cut. That's it. That's all," you told me.
"One cut will make you feel stress-free."
"One cut," I said. That's all it takes.
One cut is such a big mistake."
"One cut," you said, "won't
hurt. I swear.
One slit on your arm right
there."
I watched you slit your arm,
And then I did too.
I don't know why-I guess it
seemed like the cool thing
to do.
"One little cut," I told myself.
"I'll be just fine."
So I started cutting myself all the time.
I became addicted-I need to cut my arm.
"A few more cuts," I told myself, "wont' do any harm."
But then one day, my mom walked in.
"What are you doing? Why'd you start and when?"
These are questions that she said,
As all the memories rushed through my head.
I got help, and now I'm better.

Quote : What goes around comes around- its true!
Poem:
Love is always patient and kind.
It is never jealous.
Love is never boastful or concieted.
It is never rude or selfish.
It does not take offence and is not resentful.
Love takes no pleasure in other people's sins,
but delights in the truth.
It is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope,
and to endure whatever comes.
true love stories dont have happy endings, true love stories dont have endings.
Lifes not about waiting for the storm to pass, its about learning to dance in the rain.
