Hold On
 

Give me just one more minute.

I’m looking at my life

And wondering why,

The bad times sometimes outnumber

The good.

And Lord I’m asking you,

to show me the way.

I have friends and

I have enemies.

And I’m never sure

Sure which one outnumbers

The other.

And sometimes I look at my life

And wonder what it’d be like to be living another’s.

To see through someone else’s eyes,

Yet know that it’s me looking out.

I sometimes wonder if God made a mistake.

If he put me here by accident.

Surrounded by people who continually mock me.

And yet, deep down I know that I am 

Who I’m supposed to be, in all my oddness.

And that where I am,

is exactly where I’m supposed to be.

And that even though, sometimes

I do not quite fit in,

That I belong.

Love
 

Love hurts, and love can kill.

Love is patient love is kind.

But love is also blind.

Love will whisper I your ear,

Tell you things you want to hear.

Love will tell you lies,

And love will make you cry.

 

Love will make you

Want to die,

And love may never

leave your side.

But love is scary,

And love hurts.

So if you discover it’s

Found you,

Beware.

You might not make

It out alive.

Love in High School
 

I’ll love you till forever ends.

But forever is never.

I love you Monday,

But now it’s Thursday and

I’m so over you.

Love’s ever fleeting in high school.

Our notes are ended with

Love, your gf or bf.

But in a week they’re

Addressed to someone else.

 

And now I wonder

Should I just avoid,

Love altogether?

With my past experiences 

With love, I’ve discovered

Only the dark side

When it comes to

Love and guys.

And hates the only thing I feel

Once I’ve done what they ask.

No love,

No pleasure.

Only pain.

 


So now, I’ll forsake love

The way it did me.

Shut down my heart

And close off my soul.

And never love again.

War Within Ourselves

Shots fly, as screens ring.

 

Sirens blare,

As the po-po pulls up.

The sight will haunt them forever.

Bodies strewn upon the ground.

Black, White, Asian, and Hispanic.

No one alive, bullet shells everywhere.

Blood flows freely on the ground,

Mixing together.

In death these teens unite, for blood does not care

What race you are, or the name of your gang.

It cares not where you come from, or who.

Your history or your past is irrelevant.

Their deaths were not in vain,

Though they died far to young;

For the parents remember their sons and daughters lost.

And a community comes together on their graves.

But the senseless hate,

And the innocence lost,

Will be forever mourned,

On the day
 
Their blood filled the streets.

Daughters of Christ

 

 
We are all daughters.

Whether accepted or rejected,

By the one’s who give us life.

No matter our history.

We all have a father who loves us dear.

His name is Abba Father,

Rejection will never come from him.

He looks at us with love.

He cries with us when we weep.

He feels our pain,

Holds us when we fall short of his grace.

We are all sisters,

No matter what race.

No matter how old or young we are,

We are connected by a father

Who loves us all the same.

ROTC
 

 

Orders, rules Yelling.
Yes sir, no sir.
How do you do sir
ROTC is all about rules sir.
“ You have no life,
No individuality.
You are one,
Don’t try to be different.
Nobody cares

What you say.
This is the military in training.
If you don’t want to be here,
Then go away.
I don’t like you.
 I don’t like your family,
Or any of your friends.
Shut up, and stand up straight.
Do not look at me.
Why are you looking at me?!
Freshman are stupid.
Sophomores are stupid.
Juniors and Seniors are also stupid.
 Everyone who is not me is stupid is stupid.
 I don’t care.
 This is ROTC 

 Are you ready? ”

Girls
Girls,
giggling and parties
secrets and rumors.
Not so discreet news.
Weight,
weighs heavily on our hearts.
I'm too fat,
too skinny
If only I had.
These are what we tell ourselves.
We're not perfect, it's true.
But through God's eyes,
we are all beautiful,
yet through our own,
we destroy ourselves.
Never questioning it,
never thinking it's wrong.
Just accepting we're fat,
or ugly,
or too skinny.
But it's all a lie.
A fact that
will in time,
evenyually fade.
But the scars that
we make on ur souls,
may never fade.
They will grow old,
but will remain,
for few to see.
Only God can heal
the scars we give
to ourselves.
For we are fearfully
and wonderfully made.
And our father,
shall take us in his arms,
and tell us how
beautiful we are.
How he made us,
just to be us.
And slowly he will
heal us, and take away our pain.
 When he is finished
what he has restored will stand there.
A beautiful creature,
unique and wonderful.
Proud and unashamed .
This was how he meant
us to be when he created us.
No scars, No tears, No fears, No pain.

Sean
The funeral's on Friday.
  I don't know if I'll make it.
when I got the callMy world tilted slightly
on it's axis.
What do you say,
when your friend dies?

How do you go on?
Do you bury the pain,
And not show itWait for it all to come out later.

If someone has the answer
I'm waiting.

Shawn again

Football games
pep rallies.
Homework and
God.
Little sisters,
Junior year.
17th birthda
suddenly, it all dissapears.
Cancer.
The funeral comes.
The tears flow,
Your sister sobs,
as do your friends.
For the world has lost you forever.
Cancer took your
life,
but not your soul.
We won't forget you Shawn.
Ali
