Jen H. Poem
He's just another fish in the sea
Or at least that's what they told me
They said, why would I want to love a fish
When I can reach for whatever I wish
Dry my tears, have some fun
They said, stick around, there's no need to run
They're building me a bridge I don't want to get over
Trying to give me a fake four leaf clover
But I just don't get it, why for me are they wishing
When really, I'd rather go back to fishing

Sometimes you just can't
Find that last piece of the puzzle
And you just have to make
The picture work without it

Jen H. Poem
When I'm not in the mood
I eat break up food
And watch movies all night
Ruin my sight
Popcorn stuck in my braces
Slurp soda, make funny faces
Laugh at stupid stuff
When things are sad, I give a loud huff
But every emotion is defined
I'll watch movies of any kind
To make me laugh or cry
To help thoughts go away of... the guy
But man I love break up food
It really gets me in a good mood! :)

Jen H. Poem
You were a grater
My heart was the cheese
Now you have me scattered
Wherever you please
Yet I still love you
With all the little pieces

Jen H. Poem
When your eyes shine
Under the big lights
When you fly up the field
While playing the game
When your hair blows
In the unforgiving wind
When you rush past me
In pursuit of the ball
When your smell surrounds me
As we huddle on the field
When you drink my water
When you leave yours at home
When we pile into the truck
On cold frosty nights
When you give me a ride
Because my mom "forgot"
When you look into my eyes
And don't realize it
When your hand brushes mine
And you make nothing of it
When you don't notice
The hints I drop everywhere
When you wake up one morning
And realize you have feelings for me
I'm going to wake up next to a guy
That already did...

Jen H. Poem
Can't think about it
The yelling and screaming
The hiding in my room
Trying to be invisible
The lying to my little brother
"Everything will be ok..."
The crying myself to sleep
The nightmares that wake me
Can't think about it
Can't think about it
Ignore those echoing words
Focus on your homework
Turn up your music
Escape to friends' whenever possible
Keep your head down at school
Lock your door
Can't think about it
Can't think about it
Cover the wounds
Internal and External
Sew them up
The stinging pain
The tears help nothing
Dry them quickly
Take a deep breath
Don't think about it...

Jen H. Poem
Today we are sunshine
Today we are light
Today we walk together
Today we don't fight
For freedom and peace
Of mind and of soul
Today we see liberty
And we're under control
When the world shouts to stop
What are we fighting for
To kill and be killed, well
Today we fight no more
Today we are stripes
Today we are stars
Today we walk together
Today peace is ours

Jen H. Poem
I see it everyday
I walk by the same plant
Sitting on the kitchen table
Never really giving it much thought
But today as I was eating take-out
With that little plant sitting right there in front of me
I began to think more and more about it
And as I looked closer at the naturally green plant
I saw a single yellow leaf
Just there in the middle of all the green
Minding it's own business
But sticking out like a sore thumb
Sitting there, I just couldn't stop looking at it
It was bright and beautiful, yet in the wrong spot
I stared and stared at it,
Trying to fish out that thought I knew I was thinking
Then it hit me
If people could just be like that yellow leaf
Be different, stick out,
And not care what others think
Swim against the current
Wear polka dots when everyone else wears stripes
Be Santa Claus on Halloween
Where pajama's to school
If only people,
were more like that
one little
yellow leaf

Jen H. Poem
So what
Don't give me that look
It was just a cut
I am no crook
I feel better
To see my arm bleed
You yell, "Get Her"
But the cut is my feed
Why do you make me stop?
It doesn't hurt that bad
You are not some sort of cop
Cutting makes me glad
I don't feel anymore
But the sharp blade
I am no longer hurting in the core
All the feelings fade
I wear a jacket
To cover the scars
And I'll have to hack it
They are my permanent memoirs
So I'll just sit
And sharpen the knife
Don't throw a fit
This is my life
It's not like you know pain
I do, more then others
I live life in vain
And I won't get help from my mother
I don't want your help
Just leave me alone
So just hush your yelp
Don't give me that tone
This is my choice
Not yours to say
The cut is my voice
So just let me waste away...
This is for anyone, who has felt alone, you aren't, things can never be as bad as they seem, just keep
moving and never give up.
