Help! Help! Help!

I can’t breathe under your stinky clothes,
I want to barf,I need to gag, Ugg.

I will do anything if you get me out,
Why would you do this to your brother,
I will tell mother!

Oh please, Oh please, let me out,
Help! Help! Help!

 

The pet turtle eats all our flowers,
He lays in the sun for hours and hours
He’s pretty fast
but his speed doesn’t last
Sometimes he sleeps
Or he’ll dig a burrow down deep
he has his own pool
he’s so cool
If only he was mine

Purple, silver, touched with gold,
Lemon, chocolate the perfume holds.

Music, laughing, dog squeaky toy,
Kindness, happiness, dabbed with joy.

Pages, doggies, smooth silk,
Cherries, marshmallows, & sweet cocoas milk.

I am the Alpha of all dogs,
Blooming into their little paws.

My family is the solar system.
My mother is earth, and Caroline is the moon, orbiting around her.
My father is mars, closer to earth.
Courtney is Neptune, far away and alone, slowly but surely drifting further away.
And I am Jupiter, closer to Mars, and lost in a universe unknown.

 

Your eyes of sparkling blue,
filled with joy and love.
Your arms wrapped around me,
with care of a mother.
I would die you you,
i would walk through fire for you.
and i know you would do the same for me,
because we love each other.

ALL rising,
ALL eating,
Rushing out the door,
WE are LIKE like a big U.S. breakfast!
WE are like scrambled eggs,
Salt,
Pepper,
For OUR races,
Eggs for OUR differences.
Cheese for the fallen forgotten people,
The person eating the eggs,
Is who ever is taking over OUR country,
And last but not least,
The empty plate,
Is OUR mistakes,
WE know the mistakes are their,
Just not visible, like the cheese in our eggs.
U.S. lives in awe,
WE learn from our mistakes,
So next breakfast,
YOU wont fight for the last juice box,
Threaten YOUR brother to give him a wet smoochy,
YOU will realize something,
YOU end up in the same place every time,
YOU get in trouble,
Soon to be sitting in the corner,
Alone, in the dark, scared,
That’s why WE need to stay together as a big breakfast buffet,
Not just the eggs,
But also the bagels,
Pancakes,
Waffles,
WE need to stay together not kick people out,
Stay together as one big breakfast buffet.

 

You don’t have to show the best of you,
you don’t have to love me too,
But I love you with all my heart,
you are a beautiful piece of art,
I will love you even if you move to Mars,
This love will always be ours.

 

Work
Working makes you better and helps you,
You have to work to get STRONGER but,
No one likes work
To get stronger you have to learn to love work
You go to the gym to get STRONGER
You wanna keep going and you don’t want to give up

Your shoulder angel tells you to keep going,
But the devil says to give up
If you want to get STRONGER when you are running
Then you should never give up
Giving up makes you
Weak
You have to be persistent
persistence

 

She held the light of the sun
she was sweet
she knew the answer to everything
she embraced everyone’s flaws
she is gone

From times I knew her
she was part of my world
part of my soul

Loss
can be a terrible thing
a moment of hatred
though a thing she always knew
was that love never dies
you always have love in the palm of your hand
just buried underneath all the doubts

Loss
can also be a relieving time
a time where grief can be lifted off your shoulders
once you realize the person is in a better place now
where nothing can hurt them

And you feel redemption when you realize
a loss can also be a win
if you let it.
