Going Home: A poem about being in a feeling of home. A good feeling that you are where you want to be. Not in a place where you go just to sleep. Home is something more than a house.
Touch: A poem about flirting, being intimate, all those good things. Explaining the feeling of warmth through such things.
No Humanity: This is about being confused and not trusting what is going on. The only person you are always sure of is yourself and no one else really matters.
So Mistreated: A poem about those people that have things so good and don't even know it. I look around and see people talk about their problems, and mine are so much worse. So I just wrote this.
You Will Pay: Not a very nice poem at all. I was mad, uhm just about revenge. You ge the idea.
Phantasy: I woke up from a vivid dream one morning. I was walking down the street with a girl, and we fell asleep under the stars. I thought it was real, but it wasn't. So I wrote it down to remember.
Isolation: My first "nature" poem. Wrote it in English class as a joke. I liked it, was about a man being hung in a tree. :)
As the Sun Set: I'm fixated on nature right now, with some allagory. Sun is some girl, boy is me. Sun left, nothing the boy can do but regret it and wait for the moon to come.
Autumn Day: A poem about Autumn, how it feels. How it is like life cycles, coming to an end in darkness that everyone will fear at sometime.
Bad Sleep: A song I made up about feeling misrable. Not sleeping but not willing to go back to the way things were because of pain. Like a lose lose situation!
Shallow: Another angry time I wrote down some stuff. A river like a person, and having to get away to feel good again.
Pick Up/Go Away: A song I wrote about how I feel. All messed up because someone changed the way I feel and than just left. Rather inconsiderate I thought, so why not fix me before going?
Sleet: A nature poem about Winter. My favorite season, I love Winter. So I wrote about love and beauty that I associate winter with.
Once More: A poem about being abused in all kinds of ways. Gettting angry and resolving not to blame yourself for the bad things others do to you.
