Abbie Jensen Poems

Every person has a mask on
You can’t see it, can’t feel it
But everyone who has taken theirs off
can FEEL it on other people
...

The Secret of Music

When I sit down to play my piano,
suddenly nothing else matters
...

When I close my eyes
To fall asleep till sunrise
I see myself doing whatever I want
Without any worries or ‘you can't's'
...

Why do people hurt others?
Why do people take pride in watching others suffer
When they suffer themselves?
Why do people laugh when others cry
...

5.

I used to raise my hand in every class,
Prepared to answer whatever the teacher asked.
I used to sit with my back straight, eyes forward
Staring at the writing on the chalkboard.
...

Life is like a giant wall
Everyone is straining to get to the top
Some never make it and just fall
Some make it to the top and get a glimpse of the view that was blocked
...

I like to look up at the sky
and just wonder how planes fly
Or where bees carry their honey
and why it never goes bad
...

Adolescent. Young. Inexperienced.
Stupid. Youthful. Careless.
All words to describe teenagers.
So this is for us.
...

We all know the quotes ‘Life is precious’ and
‘Live every moment to the fullest’
But I think for most of us
It goes right over our heads.
...

I am a dreamer and a believer
I wonder about the undiscovered
I hear other people's words trying to pull me back
I see the lies they tell
...

Abbie Jensen Biography

I am a sophomore in the place that used to be called prison but was renamed 'high school'. I love to swim, competitively, play basketball, and play the piano until my fingers feel like they are going to fall off. Netflix is basically my whole life. I also love to read science fiction. I am the youngest of five if that explains these deep thoughts(insert laughing crying emoji here :)) I hope to become a teacher in elementary school one day.)

The Best Poem Of Abbie Jensen

The Masks

Every person has a mask on
You can’t see it, can’t feel it
But everyone who has taken theirs off
can FEEL it on other people
You don’t have to say so, but we know it is there
So don’t bother pretending it’s not

They wear the mask for different reasons
Some parts thicker than others
You can wear it to hide an interest
Or a hobby, or something that is on your mind
See, they’re so embarrassed by what they like
That they are willing to create a whole different life for them for them to live
They are scared that if anyone finds out the truth
They will become outcasts, rejects
They worry so much about the mask slipping off
That they let the mask control what they do and say

But what they don’t know is
Some people can see right through their mask
Some of us can see the struggles, the worries
Of keeping the mask on

But the people who can see through the masks,
Have already taken theirs off
Have thrown away, burned, and shredded their mask
Have already become so sick of the life they thought was helping them
They decided to show the world
Who they really are
They decided to be original in a world full of fakes and copies

They are truly the strongest of us all
