Cierra Turks Poem
One day
I got the text
Said you wanted to be more than friends
Sent at around 10:30 p.m
My heart soared and I knew
I wanted you right then
One month passed
It went by so fast
As your graduation yearns forward
I treasure my time with you
Every kiss counts
Every word lasts forever
Lingering in your ears
Every touch is more than what it seems.
Today is your last day here at school with me
June 1st, 2012
The letter and gifts and the love keeps us together
As we talk I remember every word you say
This is not goodbye
Because we are meant to last forever
For my amazing boyfriend who I love very much

Cierra Turks Poem
Death tegit et mens impetro lost in tempore.
Desidero labris tuis
Quantum olim Jesus.
Deum nos, sed fieri sentio traditur.
Tulit te sine cogitatione me
Vota
Somnis
Spes esse te
Hopefully, quod futurum esse
I tactus decipiaris
Vestra rideat
Deus me ludos iocosque
Media cadunt
Et somnium somnio
Sed somnis deficeretur
Porrigere I
Sed ne tetigeritis
Commodule me manent
Non flevi
Venio
Erimus sicut speravimus semper, mi.

Cierra Turks Poem
Hey, God.
I haven't spoken to you since.... the incident.
When you took my great grandma home.
People tell me to trust you again and go back to normal.
To me. back to normal was when I had my ge ge by my side everyday
Despite the distance.
I come to you wanting to be held again.
I've been through many things in the past year.
You took my brother and my aunt home.
Who else is left?
You snatched many people from my life and put new people in
It's sad to say, they couldn't fill the void in my heart.
You gave me my first love
And then took it away.
I guess you had something better in mind.
Then other relationships bloomed then disappeared.
Finally,
You brought an angel into my life and he is the most beautiful man I met.
My other angels crowd around me building me up
Instead of tearing me down
My relationship with my mother was restored
And so were many others.
You gave me more tests and I handled a few of them well after the 15th chance you've given me to fix them
I think I'm finding my way
Even at a slow pace.
My wall is still up between us at times.
I'm still afraid to trust you.
People at church say, " The only person who you can ever turn to is the Lord."
I'm fixing my mistakes
and finding my ways
and trying to stay in contact with you.
I can't let this slip away because this is what I grew up with.
Loving you, praising you, and enjoying my Sundays as if they were new.
So, don't fret because here I come.
Welcome me back with open arms
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Cierra Turks Poem
After everything we've been through,
do you still love me?
After everything that fell apart,
do you still care?
After everything that happened to us
would a chance make it better?
I used to think:
no
no
no
But after everything you told me
And I started to slowly believe you
I started to think:
yes
yes
if it's meant to be
After everything,
I still think about you constantly
This is for a special guy who I have really liked ( ok fallen for ).

Cierra Turks Poem
Goodbye
February 7th
You died
Leaving my broken heart behind
I cried
Darkness never looked so nice
Depression never made me feel
more alive
When your birthday comes
I will visit your grave
Sit beside you and pray
Talk to you
Wishing I could see you face to face
In heaven it won't be the same
Cody died February 7th, 2011. He committed suicide. He was born October 16th, 1993. I miss u Cody and I love you
forever. ~~

Cierra Turks Poem
October 6th was when it ended
The love we shared got put on hold
You said,
" When the time is right, I will come back.
Pinky Promise."
It scares me to know that it's over.
I can't call you
baby
sweetheart
hun
or fiance'.
Being alone here while you're over there hurts enough
This just makes it worse.
Without you nothing makes sense.
Not even this poem...
I look up at the clock.
11:11
I wish my....
11:12
I guess my timing is always off...
To: my now ex boyfriend of 6 months. It ended 10 days before our 7 month and my birthday. I love you Raymond and I hope things work out in the end because you are my world

Cierra Turks Poem
Just a boy who died
No relation to me or those in my class
People never knew him,
But I suddenly remembered.
Getting jumped on for being who he was-- DIFFERENT
I never helped because I was always too busy
He used to scream for help,
But I ignored him
That was Yesterday.
Today I cry for not saving him
People say he killed himself after getting jumped
His parents said he was EMOtional
No help for him
So this is for you, mystery guy
I wish I would’ve helped.
I regret it.
I never knew you,
But I wish I did.

Cierra Turks Poem
My hand held my great-grandma’s hand
The silence overwhelming,
Her condition making me mad.
Why God? Why her?
Taking away the one I love
She slips something rough into my palm
I opened it up and see a heart shaped necklace.
“ It is a locket,” she says.
“ From me to you. One final memory, but we will see each other soon.”
She kissed me and I hugged her tight.
I cried my last few tears the next night.
Her funeral was sad and devastating.
My Uncle going crazy screaming, “ Momma!”
People far and wide in our family showed up.
Aunties, uncles, cousins, too.
Some people who Ge-Ge knew.
We all grieved for an hour or so.
We went our separate ways and on our way home
I cried for a week, then tried to move on.
I opened the locket she gave me and saw empty hearts on the inside.
I guess she wants me to create some memories by just remembering her.
Either way, I will never forget her.
I love you, Ge-Ge.
R.I.P

Cierra Turks Poem
The darkness
Takes over
Fear and emptiness
It still lingers
My heart filled with pain
From these past few days
I cried and cried
Till I cried no more
My heart sank deep and I need to know
I need to know
Would it matter at all?
If I tried to survive these falls
Would it matter at all?
If I let someone break down my walls
Would it matter at all?
If I let you know
If I let you know
The corner looks so
So inviting
So nice and cozy
And dark and empty
Just the way I like it
With no one to share with
Alone in the night
Is what I want
To cry out loud
And don’t give a ohh
If someone heard me crying here
They would leave anyway
Cuz they don’t care
They don’t care
Would it matter at all?
If I tried to survive these falls
Would it matter at all?
If I let someone break down my walls
Would it matter at all?
If I let you know
If I let you know
Just leave me here
Here to die
Just leave me
Alone to die
[Instrumental]
Should I let you in?
Should I tell you everything I’m feeling?
Should I?
Will I?
[Instrumental]
(Echo) just go………
Just go away…………….
Just go……………..
Just go away…………..
Would it matter at all?
If I tried to better
Tried to be better
Would it matter at all?

Cierra Turks Poem
Happiness
And love is all
I wanted
Is that so hard?
Just to be told that I matter in this world
Just to be loved
By a boy or girl
But I’m happy
To have you in my life
Without you
I don’t know where I’d be
So don’t leave me here in the dark
Just hold me close
And love me for now
Don’t go away
Just stay here and say
That you love me too
I waited my whole life for someone like you
Just my best friend
I can confess to
Tell everything I ever needed to say
I’m lucky to have you all the way
You’re my heart
My soul
The happiness that I found
The angel I know
So don’t leave me here in the dark
Just hold me close
And love me for now
Don’t go away
Just stay here and say
That you love me too
I need you
I want you
I’m addicted to you
I love you * 3
[Instrumental]
Your arms around me
So tight
So warm inside
My heart is whole
When I’m with you
I know you are the best thing to happen to me
To: Dhrashti my best friend in the universe! I love u sis!
