My eyes open and the day begins,
the sun creeps throughout the world,
laying layers upon layers of life.
It's time to move, and time to
Live.
And isn't that what we all aspire to do?
Just live like it's our last day and live like we live forever.
Live like it's the best, worst,and most average day of our lives.
Yet we all fight through the pain, and simply,
Live.
The feeling of life is the epitome of peace,
to Live.
Untitled
I awake--
and It begins.
All these actions, chosen by Me and controlled by Me.
Redeemers redeemed and sinners sinned.
Our world stays chaotic.
Chaotic.
Never calm.
Deadly and volatile,
right up until I am perverted into only an Icon,
an Image.
By those who use Me as their guiding light
for their own reasons
their own, wrong, reasons.
Except my light
It's not there.
And it won't be there
until once again, My image
and My icon
become Pure.
Jump
Take the plunge, take the fall.
Take the chance.
Come, jump with me,
so that we can become,
Better.
And when we hit the ground,
Rock bottom,
Let's just get back up,
and do it all over again.
So that we can become,
Better.

Also, think of these what you will. Some of them are meant to be thought provoking.
It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring. -Carl Sagan

What had started as an arduous project is now one of my passions. I love to write; this is where I try to paint pictures--with words. I'm a sophomore in high school, if you're wondering.

But none of them are meant to be offensive.
These aren't offensive, so don't worry. They are pretty cool though. Is the last one in reference to a leap of faith? It sounds like it to me. The first one has a particularly interesting way of talking about the sunlight, saying it creeps throughout the world. Usually the sun has such powerful, commanding presence, so when it creeps, that's interesting. I wonder if having a small narrative to accompany the poems would be appropriate? It seems like the opportunity to have the author speak to what is written is too valuable to pass up. Meanwhile, keep writing. Are you reading any poet in particular who may be influencing you?
I'm a seventh grader with Mr. Johnson. During resource I was reading his blog and came across a link to your blog ( I had to ask what grade you're in)and wondered who you were. These poems have to be the most beautiful poems I have EVER read. I love how you can bring out memories and different thoughts, while creating such beautiful pieces. If you wouldn't mind, maybe you could check out some of my blogs for advice: http://kelsey-kesl.blogspot.com(I'll invite you) http://kelseyisnowapoet.blogspot.com and http://kelseysessays.blogspot.com
Thanks, and I cannot wait to read more of your writing!
Sorry, I can't invite you to my http://kelsey-kesl.blogspot.com blog. You can still see my other ones though.
Kelsey, I'll take a look at your stuff, you don't even have to ask.
Mr J, no, I'm not currently reading any specific poetry, but the last one is a reference to a leap of faith, you hit the nail on the head with that one. And I probably should include narratives, do you mean just small one-two sentence explanations afterwards, or more?
