  1. I’m alone
    Lost in the world
    I have nowhere to go
    Fearing all that is around me
    I’m scared

    Dreaming
    At peace in sleep
    Then the fear comes within
    I can’t stop their destructive ways
    Nightmares

    Peaceful
    Tranquil forest
    The simple animals
    The towering beautiful trees
    Nature

    The breeze
    The crashing waves
    The colorful creatures
    The salty sea air fills the nose
    Sea beauty

    The past
    It will be here
    It will never change
    But it is not there to dwell on
    Look forward

    Break out
    Free as the birds
    Soar with them in the sky
    Let all the troubles hit the ground
    Flying

    The end
    It will come too
    Taking you when you’re done
    Hopefully while you’re are asleep
    Your death

    Alive
    Free of my cares
    Not a single worry
    Time to live life to its fullest
    Car crash

    My life
    Full of trauma
    Full of saddening events
    But things will turn around for me
    Just wait

    I stand
    On the platform
    This is my time to shine
    My head is placed on the wood block
    I’m done

  3. Loving
    Into the heart
    Out of mouth into air
    Just another word gone to waste
    Heartbreak

    Sun rise
    In the darkness
    There is nothing to do
    But to see happiness fill up
    The soul

    A place
    Of worriedness
    A dying rotten soul
    They were given chances to stop
    Too bad

    Losing
    The special one
    Means a life of hurting
    A disturbance that now is lost
    Game gone

    Many
    I don’t like you
    Please, just leave me alone
    The heart says something else than the words
    Please help

    I can
    Do so much work
    There’s nothing else to do
    To see my life crumble in
    Front of me

    Many words
    Of many lies
    Which begins to pile
    No filter in anyone’s mouth
    Drama

    Letter
    Of so much love
    Later turns into hate
    No words can take back the way I
    Loved you

    Dark place
    Many lay in
    Thinking negatively
    The words they think of is the hate
    They have

    Words hurt
    Actions hurt more
    Think before doing it
    There’s nothing more to do than cry
    Goodbye

  4. Ocean
    Brilliantly blue
    Reflecting the sun’s light
    Waves crashing onto the white shore
    Ocean

    Merry
    Days spent playing
    Laughing in the white snow
    Snowmen and snowball fights galore
    Winter

    Wander
    Run through the woods
    Spend the day searching for
    Yourself among the tall oak trees
    Wander

    Free fall
    The wind whistling
    My body is weightless
    Everything is so small below
    Now close

    Mermaid
    Long golden hair
    Basking in the sunlight
    Turquoise tail splayed on the warm rock
    Beauty

    Book store
    The smell of books
    Which call to me from shelves
    Beg me to let them share their tales
    To read

    Seaside
    The salty air
    Fills my lungs and soothes me
    A thief stealing all my problems
    Calming

    Classroom
    After the bell
    It’s empty and dark here
    Detention’s almost over now
    Let’s go

    Silence
    I am alone
    I have been abandoned
    Here in this lonely place so cold
    Quiet

    Sailing
    Delicately
    Floating down the river
    Navigating a world unknown
    A boat

  5. Undone
    Untwined love
    Never began to feel
    Rewind to the start of it all
    No us

    Hello?
    Anyone there?
    Is my lost cry unheard?
    Get the big wall and cover me
    No voice

    Twenty
    Election time
    Who will you pick for us?
    Make the right decision or else
    Twelve year

    Covered
    Completely shunned
    Voice never heard from now
    Get all negatives fully out
    Good life

    Right side
    Positive mind
    Good decisions until…..
    Real life opens to all of us
    Left side
    Thunder
    Feel the presence
    Hear the rain on your door
    See the lightning crackle the ground
    Feel again

    Blank stare
    Unfelt hands twined
    A hug without caring
    No spark in our hearts nope
    All done

    Boil
    Temperature rise
    Volcano ready explode
    No cover or even rainbow
    Watch out

    Gumdrops
    Lollipop dreams
    Sugar plum fairies too
    Open up your eyes life isn’t that
    Get real

    Poison
    You really are
    Make me hallucinate
    Float far above this ugly world
    Just us

    Touches my skin
    It warms my soul deeply
    Without the sun, we would all die
    Not good.

    It's one of my best joys
    It's something that comes from the heart
    It's life

    3)Romance
    An act that's dead
    It's something women love
    An act many men fail to do
    Oh well

    Red and yellow colors
    The warm pigments give me much peace
    Goodbye

  7. Summer
    It is so nice
    Just sit back and relax
    No need to worry about work
    Relax

    The wind
    Blowing through trees
    Making people chilly
    Coming out when least expected
    The wind

    Burning
    The fire burns
    Sizzling tree branches
    Sometimes good and other times not
    Sparks fly

    Walking
    Walking real fast
    Not looking behind you
    Trying to get from place to place
    Go on

    Baseball
    I love the feel
    Sometimes it makes me sad
    One day it will be the Mets day
    One day

    Lately
    It has felt weird
    Collapse after collapse
    The bullpen cannot hold the lead
    Win games

    Driving
    Behind the wheel
    It just feels so damn good
    I’ve been waiting for this for years
    It’s come

    Up high
    On the kings throne
    I can feel the power
    And the power just feels so good
    The king

    My hand
    My hand just hurts
    Looking up at the clock
    Why the hell am I even here?
    Don’t know

    The time
    Time goes by fast
    But not all of the time
    Only when you don’t want it to
    So fast

  21. Oh no
    Look what you’ve done
    Left me the victim of games
    What do you want me to do, share.
    Please share

    Palette
    Of how your true
    Colors start to get loud
    have fun praying to your grey God
    for now

    You taught
    Me to be a
    dreamer that refused to
    Dream, oh save it please, my voice is
    Very clear

    I’ll build
    My way out of
    your demise, these dreams do
    shatter like a beaker when I
    yell loud

    Let go
    Of everything
    You have inside, let it show
    You are not to be trifled with
    To me

    Your stare
    Sees right through me
    And all of the lies I’ve
    Said, meaningful or not, you burn
    Them down

    The light
    Shines and echoes
    Through the deep crowd and I
    Erupt and I become a part
    Of you

    The day
    I lost my voice
    Was the day I turned grey
    Without a say in my pseudo
    Tough life

    Oh wow
    Don’t you threaten
    Me with a good time my
    Dear, and just go off right like that
    Come on

    The smoke
    Fills my every
    Crevice of what makes me
    Who I need to be to survive
    This way.

  22. Open
    Given a chance
    Embrace the moment you see
    Nothing is standing in your way
    Take it

    Change
    When things alter
    And they can’t revert back
    Only thing to do is follow
    Accept

    Deceive
    To be mislead
    To believe what is not
    To trust those who are unworthy
    Betray

    To trust
    Rare when complete
    So easily broken
    Rare to be completely mended
    To doubt

    Replace
    Never the Same
    The old can’t be retuned
    Only thing left is to let go
    Move on

    Brave
    I’m not afraid
    I will take what has come
    I should probably feel terror
    Stupid

    Myself
    I am content
    Give me my solitude
    Leave me where I am most content
    Peace

    Alive
    To feel my breath
    To hear my own heart beat
    To watch my life through my own eyes

    It’s lost
    Left from my sight
    Where do I start looking
    Will looking do me any good
    Confuse

    Fulfill
    Do what you will
    Let no one be harmed
    Accept contrast in time and space
    Embrace

  24. Time flows
    Incessantly
    Rapidly vanishing
    Without warning, passing me by
    I’m lost

    Ocean
    Waves at my feet
    Cold, crystal-clear beauty
    Crashing against the white, soft sand
    Retreat

    Unknown
    Hidden away
    Captivated by thrill
    Unable to identify
    Concealed

    Wonder
    Passionate dream
    Without bounds or control
    Pouring limitless thoughts
    Timeless

    Struggles
    They pull me down
    Packed weights on my shoulders
    I realize that it’s hard to breathe
    Fighting

    Childhood
    So long ago
    Memories stick like glue
    I could never forget the past
    Longing

    Complete
    Content at last
    There’s no room to complain
    True satisfaction is a choice
    Carefree

    Wishful
    Optimistic
    I begin to have hope
    I cross my fingers, close my eyes
    Yearning

    Clouds
    Cotton candy
    Moving, white mass of air
    Soaring through many, different skies
    Fearless

    Endure
    Last to the end
    Survival of the fit
    Bracing myself, prepared to fight
    Battle

  29. freedom
    is what i want
    striving for it all day
    the peace and love is all i want
    loving

    killer
    away she goes
    stealing a young girl's soul
    taking her life away from us
    liar

    hoping
    for a new start
    a brand new beginning
    in a new place where were unknown
    zeros

    winning
    is beautiful
    the accumplished feeling
    the feeling of happiness comes
    happy

    listen
    it is simple
    something we do all day
    something we were taught growing up
    aging

    crying
    let go of pain
    the pain that keeps you up
    the pain that empties your stomach
    painful

    forever
    a lie it is
    its a moment in time
    dont believe when it happens
    broken

    linger
    the pain wont end
    the pain that keeps me up
    on the nights where there is no end
    fighting

    help me
    please set me free
    let me be free of you
    the pain is too much to handle
    freedom

    the way she hides her face
    the moment she finaly breaks
    crying

  30. What now
    Who will help me
    Where can I really go
    When will this day finally end
    Why me

    Oh math
    How I count you
    With all your whole numbers
    Also your irrational ones
    All real

    The tree
    So humbly tall
    With is brown tree bark
    And its branches hanging over
    Us all

    Outside
    Look at it all
    Doesn’t it look stunning
    It’s beautiful but I’m inside
    Boredom

    I love
    The smell of spring
    The brown leaves in the fall
    Snow falling in the cold winter
    Seasons

    Shocking
    How small we are
    Compared to everything
    Look at the planets and see them
    Up there

    Oh school
    I hated you
    But now it’s wonderful
    I actually want to be here
    To learn

    Tables
    Sturdy and strong
    To be able to hold
    All things that I can put on it
    Heavy
    Hornets
    Yellow and black
    With stingers for defense
    Collecting pollen for the hive
    To help

    The books
    On the shelves are
    And always will be there
    For me to read when I can get
    The time

  31. Cinquains
    Are not the best
    Poems to write when you
    Have a huge, painful, violent
    Headache

    Let’s count
    One, two, three four
    One, two, three, four, five, six,
    One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
    Eight

    Blisters
    Cover my hands
    Revenge by hands for days
    Spent abusing their nature to
    Make music

    Sinners?
    But who decides
    What a sin is on Earth
    When we are all present here
    Sinning

    Chances
    Left open to grab
    Reach forward while you can
    Or live a life full of regret
    Seize them

    Show me
    How the words that
    Pass your lips formulate
    In the most mysterious place
    Your mind

    The lyrics
    That speak to me
    In times of need and pain
    And the music that calls out to
    My heart

    Touch lives
    With all you do
    And live only with the
    Regret that you have not touched more
    With grace

    Understand
    That I’m okay
    Without you next to me
    But I would rather have you
    Than not

    You can’t
    Stop the beat that’s
    Coming from my fingers
    Out through my nails and down to the
    Table
