Wowzers, I've had a brain block for a while! (At least for me) Luckily, my English teacher forced me to write poems with this poet dude, and I finished it in Spanish class. Nothing special, but give it a read(:
Do you hear the whispering wind
Wooshing away my life
Wishing someone will hear
Please, hear the waves at the beach when I was five
My heart leaping with joy
Touch my back and watch me cry
Happiness plummeting into nothingness
Taste the donuts at my 2nd grade birthday
Smile at the proud grin on my face
Look at my scraped knees
as I struggle to stand
Smell the mulch and flowers in the fall of 4th grade...
Seeing me plant and water with my mommy
Look at me now.
Every jubilant thought, every tear shed
Was innocent and simple, fixed with a kiss
Times are changing.
Childhood is gone and life is complicated
Little joys pass by
A kiss only makes the pain worse......
Now watch me crawl into my bed
Laugh at the mascara streaming down my cheeks
Grow quieter as I wail
Hear my pen scraping the paper
Jump when I slam my notebook
Reach out to comfort and find no one is there
I am gone
The wind has taken my story
Tuck me away, like a dolly in your pocket
So I will not disappear
