A Little Extra Spice

Written April 16th, 2012

She’s not so different from me-

I mean –

Look at our grades

We study;

Diligent students

We dress tastefully,

Elegant and sharp

…with a little leg

And our hair is long

Silken brunette waves

Hers is a bit more curly- wild

But I guess that’s the symbol

Of what sets us

Apart

Raise Your Voice

Amy and Morgan

Written June 11th, 2011

Everyone wants to know Amy,

Generous and sweet as can be

Wise for her age and a bright future ahead

Giving up her time to help others instead

She's the one to go to when you're feelin down

She always knows just what to say to turn that frown

But Amy doesn't see herself that way

Up late cryin after what happened today

Walking behind girls down the hall

She heard something not meant for her ears at all

"Amy is so damn fat,

Never seen anyone with rolls like that!"

Hero (a poem)

Hero

written March 16th, 2011

I'm dangling from a ledge

Thirty stores high

Hanging on with one hand

People down below looking to the sky

I hear sirens in the distance

But they won't get here before I fall and land

Tears stream down my face

As my fingers slip

How did I get here

So close to tumbling into space?

No one can help me

Is there anybody out there?

I need a hero today

Who I Am (a poem)

Who I am

Written March 10th, 2011

You see me

Coming down the hall

In my black clothes

My big combat boots

My music too loud

All by myself

You think to yourself

She must be depressed

She must be lonely

An outcast

What an awful way to live

Drifting through this cold world
