It’s sad when people you know become people you knew.

It’s sad when people you know become people you knew. When you can walk right past someone like they were never a big part of your life. How you used to be able to talk for hours and now, you can barely even look at them. Now i really just miss my best friend and i don’t know where to find her.

I am

I am quite
and
I am loud.

I am sad
and
I am happy.

I have fun
and yet
I have nothing to do.

I live in the moment
and yet still
I have regrets about the past.

I am free
and still
I have no freedom.

I have a wild side
and
I have tame side.

I have good taste in cloths
and yet
I do not care what I look like.

I am funny
and yet
I do not understand jokes.

I can talk
and yet
I hate talking.

If you ask me who I am describing right now my answer will be,
You, Me and Everyone else.

A Soul’s Corpse

My soul is a blond-haired boy in green athletic shorts
with Blood like wine and fiery eyes;
he hates the stars but hates the moon
and loves the wind with whispering winds.

It reminded me of the love inside the heart,
how it comes and goes like a strange waiter serving you things you did not order.
Oh, bring me what I want, not what you want.
Because I am not you, you see?
And you should and cannot tell me what is I.

In the dark I sit, back against bark, wrapped in shadows strange, dappled cloak; waiting for when I end.
The pain was too great for me to handle the loss,
the pain was a Greyhound bus that waited to swallow me, to crush me, ready to break my body. Spill my blood, I don’t need it anyway.

He sighs, “I guess I’d better start from the beginning.”
Well. Now’s as good a time as any.
Let’s go where leaves flutter and fall,
the air smelled fresh and new in the dark.
Your hands found my skin, your hands found my mind and got inside it.
Oh darling, please let go.

I will slowly, slowly kill you, my dear, and then set fire to the dark night!!
Through the fire’s light I’ll see your corpse’s face finally smile in peace and in truth.
Then you’ll see this sight and know though we may be crushed while our light shines, when we are extinguished peace will come.

In the end I know that every piece of me was going to be okay.
It would be complete,
the soul new.

The Nightlight

The Nightlight.
The Nightlight is a group of six
teenagers.
We write poems, talk, and attempt figuring out our lives with one another.

I am a freshman in college who just got her first boyfriend and I am joyful and empathetic.
I am a girl with glowing orange hair and a shining hope in my eyes who is learning to express herself fully.
I am a tall, athletic teenage boy with a compassionate side. I aid my friends when they need company and they are grateful for that.
I am a girl who’s never stoic. I laugh with my friends and I am always open for their crazy adventures and ideas. I go with the flow and I am flexible, never breakable.
I am a boy with dark hair and a thirst for life. Drinking in the emotion, colour, and adventure of each moment. Even if those moments don’t always make sense to everybody, boy, they sure do make sense to us.
I am a girl with dark hair and pale skin. I am witty and a howling wolf. I howl from pain, pride, and joy. I am still trying to figure out how to describe myself in one sentence non-metaphorically. And I know that that’s okay.

We are personal, yet casual.
We are brave, yet sensitive.
We are in a dark space, but we have a night light in sight.

We are
