FEELINGS
There are a lot of things I feel,
the sad and bad no one can heal.
When i'm happy it's not for long,
all those feelings are soon to be gone.
There are days I feel lost and alone,
and it's all because I have no home.
I'm scared of who i'll become,
looking back and remembering I had no fun.
I remember what being loved felt like,
I remember it felt right,
the warmth I felt from a hug so tight,
the songs that would put me to bed at night.
Over night my world turned upside down
and now all I carry is a frown.
I wish I could live in the past,
so that my grandmothers love could last.
unfortunately the present came to fast.

Amaris Vazquez Poem
Crumbled paper, I start pouring my heart out then I throw it in away and say I’ll do it again later. I put my pen to the paper and I start to write what’s on my mind, I start to speak about my youth and I get to tell my truth, I get to pause, fast forward and rewind. Line by line I tell my story, line by line I tell how I got to my glory, line by line you will feel when I was up and down and when I had to worry. Or u might not even read a word I say, cuz midway before I’m done, I crumble my paper and I throw it away.
I put the pen in my hands and I let the ink flow, I let it scream and shout to the world all that I want it to know. I put my anxiety at ease when I put my note pad out in front of me. I start to change the world on paper, damn I wish I didn’t crumble it up and say I can do it again later.... I want to write so someone can read, I want someone to know that I once thought there was no saving me, I to struggled to see the positive from the negative, I also believed that because of my history I was never gonna get ahead. I let the haters all get in my head. They almost messed up my mental. My motivation was self love and that became essential.
I could no longer crumble up my papers, I could no longer give in to all the haters, I could no longer say “ima get back to this later”. Innocent lives are being taken, it’s time I shared my voice and help the ignorant awaken. I share my past so you can have a future, I share my story so u to may one day have ur glory, I tell u about those before me so u never forget ur history, I’ll share with you that u are beautiful and tell you that those with perfect sight don’t just see... black and white. I promise to crumble papers no more, i promise to continue to speak for those who aren’t here anymore. I promise to stand up for my people and spread the word about the evil, I will spread awareness for the poor the weak and the minority’s and for the immigrant/refugee which are usually all 3! I will continue to stand up and speak up for u because YOU are a part of ME!

Amaris Vazquez Poem
Gay straight or confused, love urself and who ever else u chose. U want a sex change it's up to u, no1 else is living in ur shoes and It's ur life so you make the rules. Don't ever be uncomfortable cuz someone u love doesn't want to accept u. True love loves all of u, inside and out. Don't change cuz others find it strange and don't understand what it's about. If ur a boy that feels like a girl that's ok, u wanna wear make up then dress up.. that's ok! Are you a girl that like girls? That's ok. Ur a stud that likes a stud that's ok, only perverted men prefer the fem on fem. and even if a fem does love a fem, that's ok. Don't u see that who ever u chose to b is ok? what others in the world have to say. the rules of society, wear whatever u want because it's ur body! Ppl will judge and hate what they don't understand, they will be set on their ways and say a man belongs with a woman and woman can't be a man. I say love is loving urself, love is accepting above anything else. Love comes from within, it has no religion, no color and no skin. Love comes from a heart that is just beating. I support u and all that u do to make u happy and comfortable being u. I salute u, I am proud of u, I am with u, I applaud u, I am you!

Amaris Vazquez Poem
Refugee... a person who has been forced to leave their country. Forced to leave in order to escape war and persecution, leaving so their kids don’t face horrible executions. Refugee are not the enemy they just want to be free, they work their asses of just to make ends meat. Refugee I wish I could be as strong as you, I admire you for still standing after all you have been through. Refugee you ran away from a poor country, you ran from poverty, you ran from robbery. You ran and carried children on your back, a slice of bread for 8 was your snack. You ran with blisters on your feet when you were dehydrated and weak... but you ran. Refugee you had one plan and that was to come to a better land, a plan to find a helping hand but instead you come to a border where you are banned. You run from one form of hate to another, they tell you you can’t enter but separate you from your mother and your brother. Refugee are never really free and most are never goin to be reunited with their families. Refugees....the innocent refugees that have to suffer America’s cruelties.

Amaris Vazquez Poem
Do I call my mother on Mother's Day? If I do what will I say? Hey, you have 8kids but I'm the only one u don't look for but happy Mother's Day! My grandma raised me but she's dead so I can't call her on Mother's Day, my real mom is alive and well but might as well b dead cuz she never looks for me. Sounds harsh but I've givin her the best of me and still she can't love me. I'm the middle child of us 8, I've struggled in life but now I'm straight.grams got sick when I was 13 and after that,life just felt like a bad dream. My real mom has never made an effort in our relationship but she puts up with all my siblings bull shit. I don't bring her my problems and when it comes to hers I try my best to solve them. I've never asked her to support me in any way,didn't even hold a grudge when I was a teen and she told me I couldn't stay. At 16 I signed myself up for job corps to escape being in places I wasn't wanted,helping and giving and just taken for granted. When I was 19 my grandmother died and I stayed mad at the world cuz I was still alive. I'll be 30 this year and it was me and only me who got me here! So do I call my mother on Mother's Day? Happy Mother's Day ma,thanx for the neglect and thanx for never reaching out,you made me see what life's all about. Mothers are one of a kind, mine is dead and I can't press rewind.

Amaris Vazquez Poem
I’m surrounded by stupidity, surrounded by a society that has no priority. I’m surrounded by minority’s that have no journeys, they live life care free and have no worries. I’m surrounded by a youth that doesn’t know their truth, ask them about their family history and the past to them is a mystery. I’m surrounded by racist teens that can’t wait to vote, meanwhile their minority “friends”think it’s all a joke, their all cool as as long as they get to drink and smoke. I’m surrounded by ppl who can make a difference but aren’t woke! I’m surrounded by ppl full of greed, taking money from the poor making them a dying breed. This has never been the land of the free. I’m surrounded by many who don’t see what I see. I’m surrounded by perverts who are trump lovers and supporters, they want all immigrants over the borders but wanna keep them around to rape them and give them orders. I’m surrounded by white privilege, they can get anything they want just because they fit the image. I’m in surrounded by white American terrorist, white privilege at its in finest! I’m surrounded by my fellow Americans, but because of my race we are always in comparison, I’ll never be just a fellow human and friend. I’m surrounded by a society that has become the enemy and it weighs on my heart heavily. I’m surrounded by to many yous and not enough me’s.!

Amaris Vazquez Poem
If only everyone were treated equally. If we all saw the same color, no one would b profiled racially. No one would die for looking differently. If only everyone were treated equally, men and women with the same degree would b making the same financially. More men and women would get promotions and have a better salary so they can be able to support their family.If we were treated equally the ghetto wouldn't be deadly and there would b more friends than enemies, More celebrations than deaths in the community. If we were treated equally there wouldn't be so many fatalities or broken families. We would help each other, instead of judge and belittle one another.If we were treated equally the innocent wouldn't b guilty, and the rich wouldn't be greedy. Everyone would have a heart and help the needy. The world is not perfect but if we were treated equally it would be a place where every color is beautiful on a face no matter the race. A place where only love exist and hate is erased.

Amaris Vazquez Poem
Broken hearted and unsure, all the hurt has me feeling insecure. Wondering why I keep getting ms wrong when all I want is mrs.right for me, the older I get it seem like it's no longer a possibility. I keep loving hard and getting played even harder! Secrets and lies linger in my thoughts, eating at me and pushing me away. Mistakes turned into patterns and now I might not stay. Nothing hurts more than a broken heart, a hurt heart has me drifting apart. She's had all of me since day one and I've been sharing her with another one. I try to forgive and move on but it's hard when the one u love has no answers to why they did u wrong. I hear I'm sorry and it was a mistake but what I feel is that it wasn't real and our relationship was fake! Now I'm torn between my heart and mind, one wants to forgive and try while the other tells me it's all bullshit and lies! I told her my past and my fears and her actions showed me she never really cared, now she cries and doesn't sleep but neither do i because the thoughts haunt and creep. Walk away or stay? Does forgiving make me weak or strong? There are no rules in love for when it all starts to go wrong. I'm tryin to put me first but I don't see happiness with out her by my side...

Amaris Vazquez Poem
- [ ] Love...what is love? Love is a feeling that is shown by actions,love doesn't allow outside distractions. Love is powerful when being loved the right way, love can make someone go or it will make them stay. Love is two becoming one in the sense that mind and heart intertwine,growing stronger and more powerful over time. Love doesn't lie or cheat,those feelings are for the disrespectful and weak! Love is a bond, unbreakable to any snake that comes along. Love doesn't hurt or cause pain, love is getting butterflies every time u say her name.love is loyalty and treating ur partner like royalty. Love doesn't stray off and creep, love shouldn't cut deep. Love doesn't make repeated mistakes with conscious decisions. Love doesn't allow betrayal so why does love have to be forgiving? Love doesn't make you an option so why make it a priority to forgive? There is no love once u do wrong because you know what you are doin all along, so I don't want to forgive and move on! I just want to forget it all and erase the last 2yrs of my life. I thought I found the love of my life but love don't love me and failed me twice!

Amaris Vazquez Poem
Rumors and gossip are like wild fires, they spread quick. The one to light the match is usually someone you thought you was coo with. Deep down there was envy and hatred, you have something they want but they just cant take it. They smile in your face and fake it. They pretend to open up so they can break you down, then take all your information and flip it around. Misery loves company, so they tell everyone that your not really happy. They saw you have one bad day where maybe there was a bill you couldn't pay, now all of a sudden your the broke around the way. They heard you and your parter argue, they picked up the phone and start telling everyone it sounded like world war 2. Rumors come from losers who want your future and wanna be like you. Gossip is for the self toxic, just flows out their mouth like a broken toilet and faucet. There something good in your life and they want it, they will be your friend then stabb you in the back just to get it. They will wipe your tears walk away and tell everyone your biggest fears, tell them you have no1 and they are the only one who is there. Make you look like a helpless bird that cant fly and they have taken you under their wing, like playing victim is just your thing. Rumos and gossip are just words turned into a story of lies and when most are confronted they make that ugly ass face like they confused and wanna cry. Rumors and gossip come from the frienemy, they will talk about you out of pure jealousy and those are the ones you have to watch carefully. They will tell you to leave your boyfriend, cuz deep down they dying to make a move on him. They will tell you that your girl is cheatin, all while liking her ig pics and in her inbox they creeping. They won't help you turn a negative into a positive, they gonna tell you that your littlest problem is to BIG, when you want to give up their gonna tell you to quit, they gonna hand you the rope when you feel like you don't wanna live. Rumors and gossip are like the devils best friend, they lie and pretend just to try and ruin you in the end. Rumors and gossip can come from strangers, friends, associates or even worse family. It can stem from hate,jelousy,envy or just being lonely. It can come from hurt feelings from unresolved dealings or a cry for help, maybe they want someone to feel what they felt. In the end Rumors and gossip are just that, all opinions but none fact!
