Land of Longhorns


Birds begin to chirp
Red morning sun heats up air
Desert climate thrives

Buzzing, busy bugs
Mosquitoes travel the wind
Flies swarm gracefully

Texas is my home
Wonderful land of longhorns
Texas forever

River of our Heart

A river flowing deep
into the shadowy depths
of our hearts.
Never drying up,
never giving away.

Strong to hold its
eternal beauty
icy in the winter,
melting in your summer.

Love is a powerful thing.

So keep the river in mind,
never lose heart,
and use both
for the spring's rain
and fall's wind.

Sing with Confidence
(or Song of Confidence)

Look alive-
'cause todays your day.

Your
GLORIOUS day
to shine.

Smile.

Let that confidence
radiate about you.

Keep your head held HIGH.

Because you're
beautiful and amazing.

You're you,
no one else.

So why be ashamed of that?

Being Sick

SICK



Having to stay home
Missing one test, two quizzes
In sports bra and sweats





Coughing up a storm
Runny nose is bugging me
Praying for the end





Chicken noodle soup
T.V. and video games
Cough syrup for all





Today is Friday
Monday should be Labor Day
I'm sick this weekend






GREAT

Love is Kind

Love is kind

Minus the danger

including the magic

filled with sincerities.

forever and ever,

in the elders of time,

sing me a song,

with gentle pride.

with a gust of happiness,

friends are always near.

in the clouds of a dream,

lit by the brightest stars,

in the darkest night,

you can always depend,

on a drop of time.

listen for the whistle of fun,

at the slightest ring.

tell me what you hear,

tell me what you wish,

tell me when forever and ever ends.

Beautiful Sings the Music

Passion from deep heart
Ancient art describes our lives
Beautiful virtue

Thrives; a shining soul
Drips of love and irony
Unique melodies

Sounds engulf surely
Mighty effort, no question
Decorative dreams

Love Then and Now <3

First
Love is like a delicate flower,
waiting to bloom.
Like a warm, melting sunset,
allowing birds to sing their melodies on time.
Like a paradise beach,
with silky sand no one can resist.
Only one who has been in love
can describe its glorious,
bubbling
emotion, bursting through our veins.


Then,
Love is like a jealous, green creature-
piercing eyes and a quick mouth.
Like a curious toddler with unanswered questions.
Like a quite impulse
that tells us something's wrong.
Like a pessimistic house fire, burning-
slowly and unnoticed at first.

Love is like a delicate flower,
weak against the wind,
wilting, withering away
to start anew.

Danger

Danger is a thick, midnight blue.
It reeks of thirsty trouble,
And has a sour taste.
It sounds like an eternal scream,
And feels like a caged bird.

Envy


Envy is a lush, vibrant green.
It stinks of jealous hatred,
And tastes negative.
It sounds like a pessimistic song,
And feels for need of revenge.

Down to Nothing


A Kiss of a lily in my dreams-

Black and white death; simple as that.

Should I? Wash these years away,

Bring my soul down to nothing?

Nothing?

No;

Too much pain.

Too much resistance.

Too many questions-

Never worth it.

Maybe a figure is all I need-

A shoulder to lean on and cry on.

Lean on and laugh.

Tell all secrets…

Shhh…

Don’t be a liar.
Don’t ignore me with your eyes.

All I want, dear, is someone to trust and rely on.

Is that too hard to hope for? A friend.

What does that make you? -

-Piercing gaze.

Please stop. It hurts.

It really hurts.

And all alone,

I’m down to nothing.

Autumn Spices


Pumpkin spices all around-
What magic lies around us!

Cool, crisp air
Sliding down our throats;
Warm, pleasant colors,
Painted on trees with the finest brush.

A splash of orange squashes,
Carved out on each doorstep;

Buzzing, jitter excitement-
Time for friends, time for fun!

Today, we are not ourselves.

Today, we are
Whoever we want.

Secrets


Don't look into my eyes,
I don't want you to see the truth
hiding in them.

Weighed down in a cage,
I want to be free,
but this anchor's killing me
so slowly.

A burden that'll follow me forever,
forever in my grave.

There's more to me, than you know.
There's more to you, then I know.

A secret...
I wish to stay a secret.
A secret is a pair of handcuffs,
I've got one.

A secret is blackmail, waiting to happen-
Everyone has blackmail.

A secret is something
that makes me shrink away from your touch,
that makes my eyes glaze over, at moments.
A secret is something
I wish I didn't have.

It makes me different from you...
It makes you different from me...
But is that what I really want?

There's something more to us,
than what the world can see.

A secret

should never be told.

To Go Backwards in a Clock...

If we could change the hands of time,
go back a few ticks,

If we could change a moment,
knowing what's to come-

Would we?

To live the beauty all over again?
Or to destroy the pain, that could've happened?

Time moves forever, infinitely.
Time moves forever.
