    Ok, about right after thanksginving, I did somthing I've never done before. Write Poetry.
    It's a new topic for me, so, be easy on me.



    I'm Alone
    Why do you expect
    so much from me?

    When I can never
    expect anything from you?

    You entice me with
    empty promises, eloquent lies,
    and false hope?

    Yet you expect
    respect
    from me, for you.

    You think you're a
    flawless leader, and I'll
    willingly follow you, anywhere.

    You say you will always
    be there and then, disapeer.

    I want to rebel,
    I want to fight.
    I want to scream and cry!

    But, I don't.
    Because you didn't raise me that way.

    Why do I feel as if
    you were never really there?

    Even you "I love you"
    is false.

    So I'll keep my rebelling
    to the paper.
    My fights,
    to the lines.
    My screaming and crying,
    to the words.

    My being by my self is no illusion.......
    I'm Alone........

    Alright, here's another one.


    -I Don't Care


    The lights are up,
    The cheer is on,
    The joliness is all around.
    But do I care?

    I'm impervious to all of it
    It's nonexistant to me.
    All I feel, see, hear is pain.

    The pain of lonliness.
    The pain of heartbreak.
    The pain of rejection.

    Even though the splendor is here,
    With the songs and
    The music and
    The cheer.

    I don't hear it,
    I don't see it,
    I don't feel it.
    I don't care......

    -Only Dreaming

    The days are lonely
    The days are sad
    My hope is gone

    How can I be happy if
    I have no one who'll laugh with me?

    I read the words of my assignment
    I speak from heart and soul

    I fear that I'll stutter
    But then look to you
    You smile

    I feel a warming hope
    Is it for me that you smile

    My assignment goes smoothy
    I speak with the light of love

    But then I open my eyes
    And find that I've only been dreaming
    Snd only in dreams do I find my love

    The Fleeting And The Pointless
    Hope is fleeting.
    Why should we care what'll become of tomorrow?

    It's pointless.
    There's nothing we can do to change it.
    Love is only a memory.

    Not even a memory,
    Only a dream.

    I wanted you to see me in a new light,
    But when you found out my feelings for you,
    You turned away cold and unfeeling towards me.

    It seems to happen a lot now.
    It all started with you.
    I didn't even want to,
    but the heart is not always one with the mind.

    You were a great friend.
    You were a good neighbor.
    Why did my heart have to ruin it?

    Now you're far away.
    I never see you.
    But when I do,
    You confuse me.

    Do I misinterpret looks?
    It's all because I've grown up away from the world.

    I'd be better off if I kept the want to join the convent.
    But I wouldn't be happy there.
    Why did things change?

    I just wanted you,
    But you couldn't seem to understand that.
    You don't want to understand it.

    You'd never want me.
    I know that now.
    I'm different.
    I always have been.

    I never seem to be happy.
    So, once again I state
    In so many words:
    Love is pointless
    And hope is fleeting.




    Insomnia
    I lie there,
    Eyes closed,
    Listening to the beat.

    How long have I been here?
    It feels very short,
    As I drift in and out of consciousness.

    I open and lift my tired eyes
    To the bright flaming dial.

    HOURS!!!!!

    Hours and hours I have been here.
    What'll I do when I'm meant arise?

    I'm be irritable and sick.
    Snapping due to lack rest.
    Retorting with an aching head and fleeting stomach.

    Can I be blamed?
    Is fault with me?
    My excuse is that it isn't I to fault.
    But who'll listen to me?

    It looks toward deliria.
    But the truth in my illness,
    I'm suffering from insomnia.



    A Whisper Of Love
    Standing around,
    Looking above.
    A silent sound
    And a whisper of love.

    With hope from fire
    And a courtesy shove,
    You feed my desire
    With a whisper of love.

    You stay around forever,
    With a ring and a dove.
    You promise you'll stay forever,
    With a whisper of love.

    Seeing you
    Seeing a person.
    It's defined with your eyes.

    Knowing a person,
    It's defined with your knowledge.

    But, it's different.
    Everything is defined by someone's point of view.

    I know you,
    By what you've told me.
    What you have confided in me.

    I've seen you,
    But only by the images of your personality.
    By the images of your words.

    Others say you can only see someone with your eyes,
    Know someone by your knowledge of them.
    But they're wrong.

    Everyone has a different point of view.
    So in truth,
    I have seen you.....

    Bubbles
    Bubbles:
    Beautiful objects.
    Circular, spherical, orb-like.
    Colored in the many hues of the rainbow.
    Gentle, fragile, beautiful.
    But at the simplest rupture,
    Broken, torn apart, and popped.

    Bubbles:
    Resounding laughter.
    Gigglely, chuckling, shrieking.
    Peeling throughout the land.
    Lovely, humourous, contagious.
    But at the briefest despair,
    Scared, tortured, and choked.

    Bubbles:
    Desireable love.
    Romantic, passionate, unpredictable.
    Fluttering feelings that sway in your chest.
    Beautiful, contagious, fragile.
    But at the smallest doubt,
    Scared, crushed, and popped................



    Not Caring, Just Daring
    You don't really care.
    You weren't really there.
    It was all just a dare......

    Stay away from me.
    Stay with your cliques and be.
    Cause the odd one out, is always me......

    They pressured you to come.
    They pressured you to be some,
    Sort of friend to me, but when it counts, you're just dumb......

    It took some heart.
    For you to be apart.
    But the feelings are all tart......

    I needed you.
    I thought I needed you.
    But now I see what is true......

    You don't care, I was there,
    And now my only one is my Lord.......



    Addiction
    I wake up
    And feel many things.

    I'm nervous, anxious, and scared.

    I don't calm down ever.
    Til I talk to you.

    I spend hours
    waiting for replies.
    Answers that'll keep me sane.

    I don't tell anyone of you
    for fear you'll be taken away.

    As I look over my addiction,
    I feel scared.
    How can I, as one so young, be dependent of one person?

    I want to stop.
    But again,
    I'm scared.

    If I were to stop, I'm scared.
    Scared you'll do something reckless.

    You say you're as dependent, as I am.
    Does that mean we're equally addicted?

    And now I go to sleep.
    Only for the pain of my addiction
    To start again tomorrow.



    Outside the life
    I've lived my life away.
    Away from people,
    Away from peers,
    Away from society.

    So how can I be happy?
    When I can never be comfortable.
    When I can't be with others.
    When I'm not wanted.....

    I refuse to be apart
    Of something that doesn't want me.
    They are cruel and cold to me.

    They don't accept me.
    I'm just the'Smart Girl'
    To them.

    I can't remember when
    I was last accepted by them.

    Was it the years
    Of child's play?
    Indeed, it probably was.

    So until the accept me,
    I refuse them.

    I have been,
    Am now,
    Abd always will be,
    Outside the life.



    Prayer
    I ask for an answer,
    A light,
    A sight!

    I need something to show me,
    That the future
    Will be brighter.

    I ask these in the name
    Of a great patriarch.
    One which is mine........

    When I ask of these,
    I feel the same.
    But my heart is lighter!

    I laugh.
    Knowing that He's constantly
    With me.

    He stands as my life's mayor.
    And I'll always know.
    I have a constant answer,
    To my prayer.

    I like bubbles, it seems like a bubble, the way it's written. Very happy and bright for the first few lines, then the fourth line, the bubble gets popped Very Happy

    My Emotion
    The pounding,
    The pain, and
    The fluttering.

    Then, the searing heat,
    The podding beat, and
    Again, the constant fluttering.

    All these I feel,
    When I but think of you.

    I would not trade,
    Nor give,
    Nor anything, but save
    These feelings I have for you.

    For I am filled with
    An emotion that's,
    Enormous in porpotion.

    I am filled
    With love for thee.



    High
    It starts with the giggles,
    The feeling of the sky.

    You'll see in squiggles,
    And'll soon know why.

    Everything makes you smile.
    Things will be seen in new light.

    You'll walk the extra mile,
    And with no one will you fight.

    You're filled with happines,
    And love, and laughter.

    You've lost your sassiness
    And soo you'll see clearly, thereafter.



    Answers
    Knowing you'll be alone forever,
    Is a cold feeling.

    I was turning away,
    Cause I didn't understand.

    I helped others,
    But never let them help me.

    Slowly I drifted away,
    Before I heard.

    You were different,
    You tried, you cared.

    That was all I needed.
    That was all I wanted.

    So now I feel,
    As iff I could sing and dance.

    Praise for the Lord!
    Because He broght you to me.

    Our love is innocently bare,
    For you are the answer, to my prayer.
