Amber Clement Poem
Since I was a child, I’ve been obsessed with reading
Training myself for this day to come
Already I possessed creativity, just needed tuning
Ready for the haters, all that matters is I love it
Sincere with my words, all from the heart, no lies
Of course I’m not the best, may never be
Father always told me to hope though
Once I read in front of others
Ready to be laughed at, but to my surprise it wasn’t criticism
Impressed. No hate
Only love and support
Now I’m here, trying to grow as a writer

Amber Clement Poem
As I sleep during the coldest night
A dream like no other
Where I’m free to roam the world
Happiness consumes my soul
A dream like no other
Such beauty is incomparable
Happiness consumes my soul
I’m finally free
Such beauty is incomparable
The darkness is gone
I’m finally free
Nothing can bind me
The darkness is gone
I’m still so cold
Nothing can bind me
I’m still so trapped
I’m still so cold
Welcome to my World
I’m still so trapped
Only to dream of Happiness

Amber Clement Poem
The warmest and most welcoming of arms
The comfort and peace of mind as you lay down
Everything's ok now.
We've reached the depths of insanity
Your mind’s betrayed you,
The brain is in turmoil.
Blood boiling, emotions spewing
Heart darkened a shade of black
Darker than the coldest night
Perhaps it was just a mistake?
This isn’t your home
You don’t want to be here
But for some reason…
You are
What happened?
What took you so far?
Where did you forget how to swim?
In the river of denial.
It was them
The one’s who don’t understand
The one’s who say everything you did was a mistake
The one’s who say you’re nothing
Well now they've won
Are you happy now?
Did bringing the ones just like you down so far
Make you feel any better?
Did they really mean nothing?
You forget to understand
We’re people too.
Maybe we have people we love
Maybe we have people who depend on us
Maybe we WANT to be happy for once!
Maybe instead of only caring about yourself,
You consider us too.
The freaks
The weirdos
The clowns
The gays.
We’re all people too.
But you, the very people we looked up to
And wanted to be one day
The people who could smile and laugh
The people who didn't have a care in the world.
You're the ones who brought us down.
You're the ones who thought we weren't worthy
So please, by all means.
Keep going
Develop your “perfect little world”
Without us, it won’t work.
We’re part of this planet to.
We’re people too.
So all of you idiots who say
“Go kill yourself”
or
“No one loves you”
Please, keep going.
Its not like we don’t know these things
We’re the outcast.
But we’re the most important.
Somewhere along the line, we messed up.
Learning experience as they call it.
We can make sure you don’t fall
Because don’t think you won’t make a mistake too.
But no, you push us away.
So when you start drowning,
When you fall.
Don’t expect us to be there
You never were for us.
With love, a weird, bisexual, class clown

Amber Clement Poem
No Such Thing as Goodbye
Never was I so happy before
On a beautiful summer day
So many things I wanted to say
Unlike many, you were here to stay
Coursing through my veins, love stained inside of me
Hate was no longer existing
Tons of time, I wanted to say I love you
Handfuls of emotions
Instead I shrunk away, fearing the worst
Never did I expect you to feel the same
Giving me hope was part of your game
Always I was the one to chase you
Seeing as how you probably didn't care
Gave away my heart, full trust in you
Of course you never wanted it
One day you told me
Do I dare to believe it?
Bad news, you were never coming back
You left, saying goodbye for the last time
Even now I hang on to this silly illusion. I hope there are no such thing as real goodbyes….

Amber Clement Poem
Dark and dull
A photo taken long ago
Black and white
No emotion
But look closely
There are things you could discover
Things no one had
Just because it looks blank
Doesn't always mean it is
Just because there’s nothing to look at
Doesn't mean there’s no color
A spark of hope
A rainbow after the storm
Only to fade away
Like everything good
Life as a boy
No one loved
Black and dull
Life as a boy
Who never learned how to care
A spark of hope
Color trying to seep in
Fading away once again
Life as a boy
Who wanted nothing more
Then a chance at success
Life as a boy
Who wanted a family
Who wanted to be loved
Who wanted to care
Who wanted a story
Who wanted a life
Who wanted anything
But a dull photo
Black and White….
Life as a boy,
Long forgotten
Life as a boy
Who no one knew existed….

Amber Clement Poem
I think this is the main problem for all of us
We’re told over and over “He isn't the one”
Just a high school fling.
Just another person
Nothing special
I think you've all forgot something though
There IS something special
We’re all unique
We’re all crazy
We’re all beautiful
We all have something to love about ourselves
So don’t you dare tell me he’s not special
Don’t you dare tell me it won’t last
Because all that matters is we try.
Even if your right
Don’t try to say love hurts
It’s the opposite
Love is what makes you smile
Love is what makes us happy
Love is what gets you up after a terrible night
Loss is what hurts
Rejection
Insanity
Those are what hurt
The common misconception that love causes these pains
That’s what causes people to have doubts
That’s what makes people leave each other
Because of us
The lie we spread
Stop trying to tear us apart
Let love live.
Let love strive.
It’s all some of us have left.
