Why I Want To Be An Astronaut

When I grow up I want to be an astronaut
But why? You ask.
Why would you want to be an astronaut
Of all things?

Because I am floating on a speck of dust
Suspended in a sunbeam
I am nothing
And sometimes I am treated like nothing
And sometimes I want to be nothing
And I know, that in the great scheme of things, I am nothing
But when I am soaring through the sky
Far above the earth
Floating
Flying
Free
I can embrace the nothingness
And make it something
And that, 
Is why I want to be an astronaut.

My Own Pace

I am leaping 
Bounding
Running
Sprinting
Hurling myself towards the end of the runway
They say I’m moving too fast
That I need to slow down to see the sights
To experience life
To savor the moment
But I can’t.
I can’t slow down
Because I am 
Bounding
Running
Sprinting
Hurling myself towards the end of the runway
So that eventually
In a puff of smoke
Before you even know it
I will lift off
And I will 
Begin 
To 
Fly.

Waiting To Know

I am searching 
On my own I am unique, yet I blend in with others
I feel one with everything, but I am extended from reality
I do not know who I am 

On my own I am unique, yet I blend in with others.
I’m searching, looking, seeking
I do not know who I am
I’m looking for something, but I do not know what

I’m searching, looking, seeking
I wish I knew what for, but I do not yet
I’m trying to find something, but I do not know what 
It waits, patiently, for the day we meet

I know what I am looking for, but I cannot find it
I am one with everything, but I am extended from reality.
I wait, patiently, for the day we meet
I am searching, searching for myself

My Dreams

I will be who I want to be
You can joke around about me 
And say my dreams are all crazy
And tell me you hate 
What I love
And you tell me
I should hate it too
And then you laugh
Like you just told the funniest joke
Ever. 
And you think it doesn’t hurt me
When you say that
But it really screws me up inside
Sometimes I think I should hate myself
And sometimes I just want to die
Because you make it seem
Like I will NEVER reach my dreams,
No matter how far I reach.

Poem For the Day of Silence

When you ask me to speak up in class,
You may not realize that I have my reasons for staying silent.
When you tell me not to be a “crybaby”,
You may not realize that I have my reasons for crying.
When you tell me that my dreams are stupid,
You may not realize that I have my dreams for a reason.
When you tell me to shut up 
You may not realize that I already have
Because I am silenced
Silenced by you.

My Recurring Nightmare

We go up and touch the sky
Then fall, seeking out the sight of ground below
I hold them in my hands, and hope, no pray they will survive
Always waking before our everlasting fate.

He walks along the street
I scream out to stop him
My mouth opens, and all that comes out is silence. 
It is too late.

She jumps and time stands still
And I want to run and catch her
She falls, and all I know is that I couldn’t help
I couldn’t save her.

They talk behind my back, 
Not knowing that I am there, invisible
They don’t know I can hear
All that they say about me

They tell me that I’m stupid
Not good enough
And I want to fight back
But I can’t move 
I can’t speak
I just sit there.

I know today that I will face it again
I will face my recurring nightmare.

Deep Down Inside

Sometimes
You might say things
That you think are funny
Like “Screw you”
Or “Go to hell”
Or “kiss up”

But you don’t realize they hurt me
Deep down inside

You think its funny

But it’s not

Because you don’t know 
That there is a lot 
Going on in my life
That you don’t see on the surface
That kill me inside
And your words
Only hurt me more

Quickly

They think I can’t hear
As if I don’t have ears
They talk about it all the time now
Every waking moment

Its spread to his whole body now
It’s stage 4
Chemo
Radiation
Lasers

They don’t think I know
That there is a 
15% 
Survival rate



They don’t think I hear them talk about it
The money
The hospitals
How suddenly it happened
How he could die

But I do 
And it makes me think about 
Everything

Especially death

And how it can hit someone so quickly

And how in a moment 

Everything

Can change.

I Bleed

You say things to hurt me
Because you think I don’t cut
That everything bounces off my back
That I have tough skin

But guess what
Not everyone has tough skin
Actually
Most people don’t 

And I,
I just put up a barrier
A force field that makes you think that i have
Tough skin
But if you attack this barrier enough
You can cut me

And believe me, 
I do bleed.

Who I Am

When I tried to write a poem
About who I am 
I worked for hours
To no avail. 

Then I realized 
That
I 
don’t know who I am. 

Others may say they know me

Who 
I really am
Deep 
Down 
Inside

But they don’t. 

Because even I don’t know me yet. 

I am still waiting to find out.
