"Leave It"

When you think that there is nowhere else to go there is always a place where everyone feels they belong. Whether it's in high school, college, work or wherever. We think "oh, I don't really have anything in common with the kids on campus" or "my colleagues and I have different opinions and it's hard to compromise with them on anything" and it's a struggle. It feels like a constant BATTLE but in the end "everything happens for a reason" and people come into our lives to teach us something new about ourselves. Don't lose hope. Embrace your obstacles because the best way out is THROUGH.....


Leave it all behind
Take what's left
One of a kind.

Can't the truth ever say
how their voices break
My pride each day.

Hard to say, that I
Want to belong.
But I can't explain, how
This place is my song.

Wanted to believe
I'm meant to achieve.
Locked down to
This sullen town.

Be my answer
Bring me grace.
What more should
I have to face?

Lacking what I hope to find
Wish this lonely place
could change me in time.

Know what this seems to be?
A sad sweet call between
Us and our misery.

"Natural Sin?"...


This was written for my creative writing class in my junior year of high school. What could be more interesting than the seven deadly sins?...

Attractions rise from broken fate,
As wonder dreams
a murky slate.
Every step; an outstretched stride.
One who sways an exuberant pride.

Aqua blue and cerulean seas
Rippling down
a calming breeze.
The tempest spits; a raging scene.
Sands of time; now
envious green.

Godly eyes peering below,
Tainted deeds, rot
natures’ glow.
A careless turn, down wicked path,
Turtle doves fear Hell’s wrath.

A tearless cry soon growing weak
As forbidden dreams
soon do seek.
Feeling void; a growing plea,
Make one naive
Of gluttonous glee.

A thief of dreams or of the night
A fearful, sneaking,
eerie spite.
A dark abyss, of infinite need,
Of pure intend
and thoughts of greed.

A dwindling thought; a lacking dream
To drifting endless valley streams.
Soaring lonely, a moon lit moth.
Sleeps as if a lifeless sloth.

A steering crowd; a dazing kiss,
A simpering touch
Of tempted bliss.
A trap, a game, of distracted trust.
Of one so sly as secret lust.
