Poetry

These are just a few random poems for you all to read.  Two are about me, and the third was written for an amazing friend of mine.

Fighting to Keep my Youth

My youth is raging to escape from me,

But I’m fighting to keep it in.

Why do I have to change?

I don’t want to grow up.

I want to stay young.

I don’t want any more responsibilities.

The world has too many expectations.

I don’t even want to chase after my dream,

because that would mean becoming older.

That’s not what I want to do.

I never want to leave my friends.

I want time to freeze,

because I’m terrified of what will come next,

when I have to go out on my own,

and make a life for myself.

It’s too much to do.

Time is moving to fast.

My youth is slipping away

I’m losing the fight.

The Student

 

She walks among us on this path of life,

known for her wisdom and intelligence.

Her elders have complete trust in all she does.

They believe she will succeed.

She has medium brown hair, hazel green eyes,

and her skin is quite fair.

She cares more about her personality,

rather than her looks.

She has many friends, and tries to enjoy life.

She focuses on the tasks in front of her,

and wonders about the path ahead.

She helps all who ask her.

She has few faults.

Even with everything she has,

she hates herself.

She subconsciously looks down at others.

It saddens her to see the world fall apart.

The people who do not take the path of life seriously,

is who she blames for the problems of the world.

Because she is trusted, she holds the secrets of many.

With each secret comes another judgment,

and another thing to be saddened by,

She is merely a student trying to survive.

Though she tries her hardest to be fair,

and knows it is not her place to judge,

she still judges others,

and for that she will be judged.

 

You were there when I had nothing to live for

You were there when I wanted to die

Though I pushed you away

You were still by my side

Then we were friends

And that started something new

I let go of him

And clung on to you

When everyone left you

And you had nowhere to go

Where was I?

I was right by your side

Ready to give all that I could

And all that I had

To help you out so you wouldn’t go mad

We helped each other day after day

Who would have guessed it would turn out this way

We are best friends and nothing more

And still by each others side

Even more than before

With you I share heartfelt memories

Through the worst you put me at ease

Thank you for staying by my side

Thank you for all you have done and the friendship you give

You are one of the people who helped me live
