Whats on your mind?
Whats in your heart?
I want to know,
Need to know.
...
Anger always simmering,
Always ready to abduct the mind,
A temper hot enough to smelt iron.
It controls and frightens,
...
Pencil,
Ah, wondrous pencil,
You’re always there,
My faithful companion,

A bomb threat,
That was the rumor.
worried at first,
But then thought,
...
I love you
This simple phrase cannot possibly tell
What I feel for you.
Nothing can.
...
As I sit
And contemplate
I find it hard to concentrate,
On what there was
...
As these raindrops fall,
I sit and write.
About this and that,
About him or her.
...
Its been boiling all day,
but now
alone.
A fist slams a wall,
...
Why?
Well, because life isn't fair.
But, why me?
Simple luck of the draw.
...
Alien,
Thats how I feel.
Alien in my own body.
With thoughts that aren't mine,
...
I sit here at my desk and write
Wishing for the power of flight
Trapped I feel
From head to heel

I live in northern Iowa with my adoptive family and biological brothers and sister. I am a Senior in high school who has seen some of the worst sides of the human condition; from drug addictions (my real parents) , to physical and phycological abuse. I have loved and lost, loved again and lost yet again. I developed a love for reading at an early age as an escape from reality, then reading poetry more recently and more recently still have decided to take a stab at poetry writing itself, drawing on past experiences for inspireation. But enough of my depressed past and run-on sentences, leta get to the poetry.)
(your) On My Mind
Whats on your mind?
Whats in your heart?
I want to know,
Need to know.
But you were always
The hardest to read.
Thats why I liked you,
Why I loved you.
Now I don't know.
Know what I think,
What I feel.
I geuss the question is,
Whats on my mind,
In my heart?
