The Two of Them

The Two of Them
I’ve never been so confused about you,
And what about the other one, too?
You and I were there so long it’s like a daze,
But he and I are just a blank page.


What do I do now?
How do I figure this out?
I might still feel for you but I don’t know.
But what about him? I can’t leave him feeling so low.


I can’t control my feelings at all.
I don’t want to make anyone fall,
But I feel the way I do,
Too bad I can’t read my feelings, and neither can you.


Someone throw me a life line.
And I’d say that I’m fine,
But really I’m not.
I’m getting dizzy and the room is feeling hot.


Weighing my options has never been so hard,
I’m keeping them in, my emotions are jarred.
They are both so sweet,
All this tension is raising the heat.


With one, I’ve had all the fun and laughs,
And I’ve known all through my past.
But the other is waiting for me,
We’ve become great friends, but should we risk that so early?


I am so confused about guys,
I really don’t want to lie.
But if I hurt someone I’ll feel bad for them and me,
So I’ll just have to wait and see.


So many questions without any answers,
My curiosity spreads like cancer.
I wonder “which will be my guy?”
As I look to the clouds in the sky.

One Little Secret

Stricken with guilt, I cannot move.
I must tell what I saw so all can be smooth.
A dirty little secret between the boys,
It’s as if they were just playing with toys.


They trust to tell only one,
But that one told me so I’ll ruin their fun.
No more lying for you.
It’s time to do what you’re supposed to.


I will no longer feel bad,
And though they will be mad,
I must let loose,
And tell the truth.

Moving On

I will miss my best friends,
Who were always there until the end.
As I leave my old school behind,
I hop high school will be just as kind.
A tear jerks me eye,
As I take a final glance and say goodbye.

Graduation

The day has come, it's finally here,
I get butterflies as they cheer,
The big eighth graders leaving at last,
We'll move on, but remember the past.


Walking with my class as parents smile,
As memories flash through my mind for awhile,
Walking has never been so hard, as I leave my school,
Pushing on, but feeling like I'm in a whirlpool.


Grade School, Remember me well,
On my short comings, do not dwell,
I feel hot tears,
As I hear the cheers,


I finally start to cry,
As I say my last goodbye.

Peace

Sometimes stress is here,
But it doesn’t have to be.
Just think of something without fear,
And maybe we’ll all see.
So many people fear and stress,
But just take your time.
When they pull themselves together and aren’t a mess,
We will be just fine.
When peace is here,
There is calmness in the air.
Serenity is near.
Go along without a care.

Whispers

nothing can stop them
"silence!" someone yells but still people speak
no one can resist
they must still utter silent squeaks

Hope

The one word that means the most
in the time of pain
when almost all is lost
and there is nothing left to gain


it can mean the most
when its from someone who cares
its all someone needs
when they are in despair


the one special word
one syllable that helps
when the depressed give up
and want to scream and yelp


the word is not love
though it would help those who mope
but it is that lifting word
and that word is hope.

Clocks

The clock ticks on
no matter what went wrong
there is always a chime
at every hour's time
no way to go back
the only thing we lack
is to keep time well
maybe to push back time to stop the times we fell.

Inspired

Why does it take so much effort,
Just to be inspired?
Why does it have to have so much thought,
And makes the mind tired.

Is it that hard to imagine?
Think colorful thoughts
And let your mind wander
That’s where the best ideas are caught.


Rather than stress to fill a deadline
Or think things too much
Just float and it will come,
Just let your mind get a clutch.


Keep your mind open
And don’t let someone limit it
Break through everything
Just so the light bulb’s lit.

Ocean

I don’t know how,
I don’t know why,
But life is an ocean,
With everything floating by.

Sometimes you have a ripple,
Which isn’t a big deal.
But then there comes a tidal wave,
That’s too overwhelming to feel.

Sometimes there are happy waves,
Calmly crashing when the pace is slow.
When everything is quiet,
As you watch the suns soft glow.

Other times it hurts,
A hurricane on the shore.
When all you want to do is cry,
Ignore others, and lock the door.


That’s why friends are here,
To keep you in between tides,
The ones who will stand by you,
Not someone who runs and hides.


Good and bad moods pass come and go,
Just as the seas change, too.
Loose yourself with friends when tsunamis come,
But when waves are small, save drowning friends near you.
