Goodnight

Is life worth a try?
Would I be living a lie?
If I smile, would it break?
If I laugh, would it be fake?
I see the tears from the sky and me
See how self doubting I can be
The feeling of damp grass
The moment that's bound to last
The ways I could wash away
All the people who have gone astray 
Is it me to blame?
When can my feelings be tame?
Why is this world so dark?
When can I actually make a mark?
The tears all fall down
Ive been given a permanent frown 
Standing out is not a choice
Cant risk screaming with my voice
The sky is now dark blue
How many insults were true?
I wish I could be pure
They all hate me, I'm sure 
All eyes watch me every move
So much that i want to prove
why do i still put up a fight?
Why shouldn't i just say goodnight?
i don't have anyone to miss
could death give me a dark ending kiss?
Is there a reason for me to be here?
I all i can feel is numbing fear
I just want to feel the sun shine
To feel happiness throughout my spine
But that is just a dream
That will float away with my desperate scream
Help is the word i always say
I ask for it everyday
And what do i get?
I pile full of regret
I think it's time
To end my faith, my suffering, my rhyme

Fly

I know no one really cares about me, i can see it in their eyes
They want me to trust them, i can hear it in their lies
I wish i could believe those who try to help me out
I hope one day i wont rely on doubt
some say worthless, others say i'm too perfect
i look in the mirror and see what i reflect
i see a girl waiting to die
i see a boy try to get by
a little boy getting shoved 
you now what we ll have in common? we all want to be loved
and after all of our trials
others think we aren't worth the while
so when you see me in the halls crawling
don't leave me to feel like i'm falling 
show us that we're not alone 
make us feel like we're on a throne
we all belong here, but not all of us know why
so wherever you go, look for me, teach me how to fly

Spring

The deep blue sky way up high

How the cool wind touches my sweaty skin

The flowers blooming red, purple, white,

yellow and more

The green grass is growing,

Replacing the old, brown grass

The new green leaves appear

Which means it is coming-

Spring is finally here

Life Just Asks For Me To Be Sarcastic

life is weary
my eyes are teary

life gets harder every time
i guess that's why we have to rhyme

are you ready to go?
they're about to start the show...

my head is spinning round and round
waiting for this girl to be found

share- it's such an empty word
it takes flight just like a flightless bird

life will come around to scare
to you this must be new

i could tell by the way you acted
you were well distracted

it looks like a jerk's work
i'm surprised we've not all gone berserk

Sleepless 10 Year-Old

I'm trying to do nothing

But I keep doing something



Though I'm not doing much

I've still got the magic touch



I'm trying to go to sleep

Without saying a peep



It's hard to try

But even harder to cry



I'm trying to dance

Without losing my pants



Hopefully I will grow taller

Without having to holler



I will try and go to bed

As my mother had said



So I might start a fight

But I'm trying with all my might

To be polite

So goodnight

alright

Love

the tear falls to the floor
heart shatters all on the ground
true love steps on the shattered heart, and ignores the tear
more tears come and fall
people these days just blame it on love
but it's not love's fault
it's not love's fault life doesn't go the way we wanted it to go
it's not anyones fault 
it's just the way it is

Misery

Why is life so unfair?
Why do people not care?
Why do people leave others hurt?
Then found crying in the dirt?
Why doesn't the world just realize,
that they must see through another's eyes?
Why do people just have to be...
So determined to break and shatter me?
Why can't i forget the dreadful times
expressed in journals, songs, and rhymes?
my thoughts, they ask to be happy now
but bad ones bring sweat to my brow
Why do friends turn their backs when you need them most?
they treat you like a piece of stale, buttered toast
but they turn around and claim they love you so 
then they scream and tell you to go
They always have someone better 
and your left reading another pointless letter 
crying alone because no one cares
leaving you saying your prayers
hoping one day you'll be free 
from this life of misery

Day At the Beach

the waves are crashing
the sight is dashing
the sea so cold
the waves loud and bold

all the umbrellas casting shade
sand castles being made
my feet bare in the sand
the sunset is so grand

all the sand in my hair
flipflops below every chair
the breeze washes away every mistake
it feels so good with every breath I take

and in the dark
i see a little shark
As i eat an ice cream cone
I guess it's time to go home

Swimming With Irene

During a natural disaster
The pool is full of laughter
You can feel the raindrops and smell the Chlorine
We were splashing during Irene!

It’s rare to swim during a hurricane
Our pool overflowing with rain
To us this hurricane is just another storm
In the pool we all felt warm.

My brother’s about to jump in
Everybody is ready to swim
And once we’re all done
Having so much fun
We’ll go inside.
