Forbidden Love

When I first met you,

it was like when Romeo and Juliet

first met each other at the ball –

love at first sight.

After realizing we were enemies,

we knew our love wouldn't last long.

I sigh as the days go by.

I sigh as I’m thinking about my Romeo.

If only my parents would allow us to be together,

then my life would be complete,

but life isn't perfect or fair.

When we’re at school,

you, my foolish one, surprise me with these hugs

like when Romeo surprised her under her balcony

as she was staring at the starry night sky.

You say that we are not meant for each other.

I thought you were joking for a second,

but I thought wrong.

You ignored me as I tried to make you smile

or even talk to me.

We both thought that you and I disappeared

from each others’ world.

But in reality, we are still in each others’ hearts.

Don’t forget for me, my Romeo.

Superstorm Sandy

Destructive winds shred thousands of homes.

The homes are now merely dirt and rubble.

Flood waters carry personal belongings

of Danny’s brown teddy bear, Anny’s Barbie doll, Aunt Grace’s Bible,

and the Robinson’s daughter’s six year old birthday photos.

As I was walking toward the destruction, ambulances

were coming into the neighborhood to help the families.

Red Cross members covered some in blankets

and others in sheets, they weren’t so lucky.

A young man called William asked for his wife.

They told him that God had taken her away.

Many more cried for their lost love ones.

Listening to the distant static

voices on the radios,

I hear that organizations and communities

are sending medical aid, water and other resources.

Soon it will be time to rebuild.

August 3rd, 2011

My two most prize possessions
taken away from me
because of a stupid mistake.
Yesterday felt like a horrible
nightmare but I realized
it wasn't just a dream.
Next morning I had a feeling of fear 
and I didn't know what to do anymore.
I didn't listen to people.
I act like I'm brave.
But in reality I wish
I can control myself
instead of face the consequences
of my nightmares.
I am making too much mistakes
at an age of sixteen.
Not so long ago I did the exact same thing
but it wasn't so bad.
Now I feel that life is beginning to fall
and my hopes are beginning to crumble.
But for some reason,
I still believe I can move on.
I believe that I can face my consequences
and deal with them until I get to learn
how to really control myself.

Haikus

Boy silently sat

As scissors snip small red tufts

That falls down faintly.

----------------------------------------------------

Taken out of stove

Small steam rose from potatoes

And gravy shriveled.

----------------------------------------------------

As sunlight flashed on trees
In Fletcher's Woods, dad showed son
Leaves changing autumn.

----------------------------------------------------

Cap lay on table

Blackberries juice grows inside

And its skins stuck on.

The Truth about Me

Why did you make me do that?

I’m so sorry;

I didn't mean to curse at you.

I said I DON’T WANT TO!

Why can’t you understand?

Why are you even doing this to me?

Stop making me cry;

I didn't do anything to you!

Leave me alone!

I just want to die.

My life is so useless.

I’m so useless, retarded,

Ugly, helpless, stupid,

Clumsy, weak, stubborn,

Annoying, and guilty.

I’m such a liar, idiot,

And crybaby.

I didn't do anything bad.

Please don’t be mad and judge me.

No one in this world understands me.

There’s nothing you can do about it.

The reason I have been so happy is that

I don’t want to be a burden to you,

To show how I truly feel,

And I don’t want to be weak.

It is true that I don’t know about you:

Your feelings, your emotions and your past.

I would like to know but yet again

I wouldn't care because

You wouldn't care for me.

Please Just Save Me

I sit in my room
As I count my wet tears
Coming down my face
And I know that I cannot stop,
But I know that I should suffer

Through the pain in my heart.

As I walk through the empty, cold hallways
I feel emptiness.
The entrance was filled with strangers.
And when I look at them,
They give me this awful glare
Like I’m ugly, horrible, or even
Disgusting.

Alone

No one wants me.
No one cares about me.
And no one even likes me.
I’m left alone in this desolate, dark world.
Somebody,

Please Just Save Me.

I escape from that horrible place,
Go to the park

Where it’s raining and thundering,
And sit on the swing sets alone.
I realize that it’s pointless to run away.

When I checked my watch,
it said, 8:30 p.m.
That was the same time

Alone on swings

my parents died - two weeks ago.
I didn't really care when they died

Because they didn’t care for me.

I was so deep in thought that I

Didn’t notice a boy swinging next to me.
I didn't understand why he staring at me
But he looked lonely like me.

He looked at me.
I looked at him.
He offered his hand to me and asked,
“Will you be my friend?”
I cried and when I held his hand,
I fell in love and we spent time together.

I cried when he died.
It was my fault that he died.

He tried to save me from an oncoming ambulance.

But instead he was hit.
I was 16 years old and he was 19.

Please Just Save Me

I sit in my room
As I count my wet tears
Coming down my face
And I know that I cannot stop,
But I know that I should suffer
Through the pain in my heart.

Please Just Save Me.

To My Dear and Loving Sister

When I see your face smile at me,

It reminds of my favorite tea.

Your perfect, pretty picture of you,

Reminds me of Winnie the Pooh.

I still remember the good times we have and

The worst or bad times we did not plan.

I still love you no matter what happens.

You could be tapping, rapping or snapping.

I would still love you better than anyone in this world because

You are my Santa Claus.

Your laugh is like music to my ears.

Promise me that you will never disappear.

Music to my ears~

My World Lyrics

In my world...there is only you

Warning these are not my lyrics
Link to song
The fastest man in the world
Fast asleep at the wheel
Nobody wants to be alone,
So how did I get...here?

When I look at you...
I see him starin' through
Awake, and a smile
'Cause he's been inside of you

Is he all the things you
Tried to change me into?
Is he everything to you?

Does he make you high?
Make you real?
Does he make you cry?
Does he know the way you feel?

Love is all around you.
Your universe is full
But in my world...
There is only you.

I can still find the smell...
On my clothes and skin...
I can still see your face
When you're sleeping next to him.


Is he all the things you
Tried to change me into?
Tell me does he make you high?
Make you real?

Does he make you cry?
Does he know the way you feel?



Love is all around you.
Your universe is full
But in my world...
There is only you.

I had my fears
You let them out
Now I wrap myself around you
Like a blanket full of doubt
The darkness grows...
The sunlight stings...
He's your everything...


Does he make you high?
Does he make you real?

Does he make you cry?
Does he know the way you feel?


Love is all around you.
Your universe is full
But in my world...

You make me high
You make me real
You make me cry
Now you know the way I feel


Love is all around you.
Your universe is full
But in my world...
...There is only you.

Kiss the Rain Lyrics

I often close my eyes
And I can see your smile.
You reach out for my hand
And I'm woken from my dream.
Although your heart is mine,
Its hollow inside,
I never had your love,
And never will.

And every night,
I lie awake,
Thinking maybe you love me
Like I've always loved you.
But how can you love me
Like I loved you when
You can't even look me
Straight in my eyes.

I've never felt this way
To be so in love,
To have someone there,
Yet feel so alone.
Aren't you supposed to be
The one to wipe my tears;
The one to say that you
would never leave.

The waters calm and still.
My reflection is there.
I see you holding me
But then you disappear.
All that is left of you
Is a memory,
One that only, exists in my
Dreams.


And every night,
I lie awake,
Thinking maybe you love me
Like I've always loved you.
But how can you love me
Like I loved you when
You can't even look me
Straight in my eyes.


I don't know what hurts you
But I can feel it too,
And it just hurts so much
To know that I can't do a
Thing.
And deep down in my heart
Somehow I just know
That no matter what
I'll always love you.


I often close my eyes
And I can see your smile.
You reach out for my hand
And I'm woken from my dream.
Although your heart is mine,
Its hollow inside,
I never had your love,
And never will.

So why am I
Still in the
Rain..

My Feelings

My feelings for you did not change since we became friends.

Your smile brightens my day,

I loved when you walked me to class almost every time,

but that all changed when someone had to ruin it all.

You said this was the best for 'us'.

We were never meant to be together

even though we both know we like each other.

Now we rarely see each other;

I, a junior, and You, a senior.

Sometimes we get to see each other by accident,

but when I try to get you smile,

you don't smile and asks me, "What?"

One time I saw you all dressed up and

we met up and when I smiled,

you finally smiled and hugged me.

That was the only time I got you to smile.

I miss talking to you, having lovely chats,

and smiling together.

In total, I just miss you.

So B. It

     A girl named Heidi lives in a town of Nevada with her mentally-disabled mother and their neighbor, Bernadette, also known as Bernie. Bernadette has this condition called agoraphobia. Agoraphobia is a condition where the sufferer becomes anxious in environments that are unfamiliar. This causes her to be too afraid to go outside her house. Even though Heidi's mother has a mental disability, Bernie finally teaches Heidi's mother how to open cans. Heidi’s mother only knows 23 words including one mysterious word, “soof,” that no one can define even Heidi's mother is unable define it. She's also unable to take care of herself and her daughter. However, Heidi does know her mother loves her and that she has an incredible streak of good luck. Everything she tries, she succeeds, whether  playing a memory game or using the slot machines to make extra money for the family.

Heidi finally asks Bernie how she even ended up at her apartment. Heidi's mother was able to tell Bernadette that her baby's name was Heidi. Bernie couldn’t just leave them on the streets so she eventually took them in. When Bernie asked for Heidi's mother's own name, Heidi's mother says, "So be it." Since Bernadette believes everyone should have a middle name, she was called “So B. It.” Heidi was known as “Heidi It.” Heidi knows nothing about her mother’s life, except her alien name, or anything about her father. The truth about her mother's identity eats away at Heidi. She simply cannot rest until she puts together her mother's past. Why was her mother terrified of buses? Why do rainy days make her anxious? When Heidi finds some old photos of her mother at a Christmas party held at Hilltop Home in Liberty, New York, she decides she must travel there alone in order to discover who her mother truly is. She will have some problems along the way to her destination. Will she able to find her answers? What will happen to her if she gets caught traveling alone? Read to find out!

So B. It by Sarah Weeks is a great book to read. The mystery is so interesting and it feels like you can never put the book down. I recommend this book to all ages that can read and understand this book.

March 16, 2012

My day, at high school, was one of the best days I have had. The school I go to have an indoor swimming pool, two gyms, a theater room and more fantastic rooms. My middle school has eight periods a day, meaning each class would be 40 to 45 minutes long. In addition every day would be a different day. For example Monday would be an ‘A’ Day and then Tuesday would be a ‘B’ Day. One of the days you would miss a class because one of the classes could be elective or something else. High school is different, instead of eight periods we have 6 blocks, and instead of each class being 40 to 45 minutes we would have an hour. Lunch is not counted as a block because it’s only 41 minutes. We have an A, B, C, and D days. The schedule would be difficult to memorize at first, but once you know where to go, it’s easy. Oh by the way I’m a sophomore, 10^th grade. If you’re freshmen, 9^th grade, it might be difficult to find all your classes since it’s a new school you’re going in. So anyways March 16, 2012 was an ‘A’ day. The first block I had was study hall. Usually normal study hall is at the lower dining hall. Our school has two lunch areas, one lower dining hall and one upper dining hall. Normal study hall was at the lower dining hall. When a teacher is absent, we don’t have substitute teachers instead we go to upper dining hall to do work. Why do we have two lunch areas? It’s because it’s one for freshmen and sophomores to eat together, and one for juniors and seniors to eat together. But that’s not all; the hallways are also a place to eat as well. Anyways the study hall I go to is a smaller study hall called study skills. After study skills on an ‘A’ Day is culinary art. Culinary arts is a class where you cook stuff and eat it. Today my friends Luna, Niki and I were finishing our mashed potatoes donuts. It turned out great, and it tasted delicious! Today I was the head cook but all I did was help. Afterwards I had gym. My class went to the smaller gym to play basketball. After gym I had lunch! I sat with my friends in the hallway. It’s quite annoying to get lunch since I sit all the way near the main entrance. George, my friend, made me so worried because he thought we had Geometry homework. I ran back and forth to get my stuff since we had the same Geometry class together. I wanted to strangle him because I had to run back and forth. Well it was a good work out. In the meanwhile I went to the lower dining to check on my other friends. One of my classmates made a cake for my other friend because her birthday was next week and she couldn’t make it next week. The cake was huge and it looked like a huge donut. Next class I had was, of course, Geometry. It was so boring that I don’t remember what happened. Fifth block was Biology. In Biology we worked on a lab all class long. Last block was Language arts. In Language arts we finished reading the book, The House on Mango Street and it was pretty short. After that we had the rest of the period free time but I had nothing to do. After class I went upstairs to get my stuff and head on to the swimming pool. Along the way there I saw my classmate. We chatted as we walked down the hallway. When we had to go into our separate ways I realized that I wanted to talk to him more. Swimming, I never swam for such a long time and now I’m starting to like it now. After swimming I took a shower and waited for my friend to change. We stood in near the main entrance until I had to leave because my ride was here.

Spirited Away will blow your mind away~

The movie is directed by Hayao Miyazaki. This movie is about a girl, and her name is Chihiro. She is trapped in a dream world, where her parents are turned to pigs, and she cannot control it. No one else is controlling it. She meets some good mythical creatures that seem human and one evil and mysterious witch. In this movie her goal is to return back to her world by the help of her friends. I personally love this movie because the animations are wonderful, and the movie itself is exciting! My favorite part of this movie is meeting the evil and mysterious witch's twin sister and also meeting No-Face. I personally love all Miyazaki's movies because they're all very exciting. I recommend YOU to watch this movie! You should all pay attention to the music because it's really pretty. If I had to rate this movie it would be 4.5 out of 5.
