You're too young
You can't do it
So?
...

Winters, Autumns
Summers, Springs
Something special
each season brings
...

A poem about truth
A poem about lies
A poem about food
A poem about pies
...

Voices around me
Why do you do this?
Do you find it fun?
...

It hurts but doesn't stop
It makes you cry
It makes you just want to die
Pain is something we've all felt
...

By truck, by bus or plane
By car, by boat or train

All ways to get here
...

In a land of peace,
Imagination lies, where?
Well, where else besides
Your Mind?
...

The day started at six,
Brush my teeth and make them clean

Do my hair, detangle and spray
...

The Day was like any other
Cold in winter, with a hint of snow

I sat on a computer while staring
...

Real or Fake?
Fun or Boring?
Red or Blue?
Black or White?
...

A world of hate,
But I can see good,
Could it be true?
Doubt is an
...

Can you help me with this?
Yes.

Can you do this for me?
...

Drip, drip goes the bucket
But again it's empty inside
How can we survive if the well is dry?
...

Sitting bored I
need inspiration
Stuck in a state
of exasperation
...

You see it in the distance
You reach, but it's just out
of your grasp
You want it but it still disappears
...

They stand by you
They care for you
But might not be
related to you
...

They don't think
we understand
It's the story
of my life
...

Tall, short, fat, or thin
ugly, pretty, or pretty ugly
All words to describe us
but do they means anything?
...

Through hardships and pain
Through fun things and gain
Through death and revive
I'm a survivor, I will survive!
...

The tremendous turnout
for this thing is
terrible I had hoped
for a tiny turnout...
