My throat is soar,
my skin burned,
this sand is hot and rough.
Still, I can't move.
Where did he go?
Even after I was
beaten down, abused, drowned,
I still can't run away.
I just stay, lying here.
He left, you came.
You help me off the sand
back on my feet.
But you leave
before I can say a word.
Where did you go?
I always ask
while I wander and endless desert
looking for the one
who gave me hope.
Looking for you.
it's time for goodbye
but I scream, "hello"
for every time I was silent.
you don't know how badly I ache
to change all our exchanges
into long conversations.
I stayed away but now find
we're out of time without warning.
even now I can't speak
afterall, how can you say "goodbye"
without saying "hello"?
I'll always dream of what could have been
while you'll never know.
so let this be my first and final
"hello"
I glance off to the side, catching her eye for just a moment. That's the girl I can't stand, but also the girl I think I love. I can't stand the way she refuses to greet me when we pass, or how she smiles with others, but never with me. Why can't we share a moment like that? I love her so much, but I can't go near her. I hate how she ignores me like I don't care for her more than anyone, like I'm a faceless stranger just passing by. Not that I've told her anything about my feelings for her, but it still hurts. Sometimes I try ignoring her, just to get her back, even though she doesn't care. It helps me feel microscopically better. Still... ev
There she sits quietly on a bench, just watching and waiting. She wears a plum knit hat pulled over her brown bushy curls, wraps a gray scary round her neck and covers her round freckled nose. Her cheeks are rosy from the cold, she has her coat, hat and scarf so she is warm enough. She has to wait until four o'clock anyway, for that is the time he'll pass on his way home. Sometimes he takes the subway, other times the bus, but it doesn't matter; he always passes this bench. She smiles beneath her scarf as he strides past, he too is bundled up in a thick peacoat with a scarf and gloves. She smiles at his near perfect posture, his relaxed caref
You have more to say than anyone,
stories and beautiful thoughts
swirling around in your head,
but you can't give voice to them
every time you open your mouth to speak
you catch yourself and keep silent
You're an observer
you take in the world and see its beauty
you notice what others miss
and know more than you should
but no one can see like you do
so you pretend you can't see either
You hear the music of the world
noises lost to the background
you're so stunned by its beauty
you tune out the rest of the world.
So much is trapped inside you,
your brain is ripping at the seams
and when you leave this world you love,
no one

No one deserves to be bullied. Not even a bully. And if they're a repetitive one and you go back and try to take revenge you lose, because then you become a bully too. You let the bully win. There is no honor in revenge or bullying either. Even if you think a person deserves it, it makes you so much stronger if you aren't brought down to that person's level. Standing up for yourself is important, but there's a difference between that and revenge. I don't think anyone ever deserves to have their whole world as they know it taken away from them just so the other person can get back at them because they said some offensive things. And it only br
I felt like ranting.
So in English we were reading Whitman poems which are really neat. But I feel like once people found out he was most likely gay that was all they saw while reading his poems or poems about him. And.. whatever, but I don't think that's what they wanted us to focus on. Whitman's poems were about so many different things it's hard to even summarize what they were about. They were about nearly everything I guess. And it also it just got me thinking. I don't like people focusing on sexuality being a person's identity. I guess it's part of it, but I don't even think it's that big a part. I don't think any label should be what

1.I'm obsessed with mirrors. Not looking in them - I'm not that narcissistic - but there's something about them that interests me. They're like doorways to backwards universes. Double sided mirrors especially creep me out.
