Flushed

The flush of your cheeks
As you said my name
Matched only the flush of my heart
A bubble of joy grew within me
Lifting me off the ground.
I never expected this to happen,
You feeling the way I do.
We could have had something great,
If we’d only tried to make it work.

Solitude

Sitting alone, up in my room
Only my music to keep me sane
Little do I know
It’s only just beginning
The pain slowly slips away
Until it’s practically imperceptible
Do I really want this?
Every day is pain, anyway.

Soaring Through The Blue

The water calls my name.
The waves are coming with a pounding beat.
They keep on rolling,
But always seen the same.
I jump in.
The water surrounds me.
My legs start kicking,
My arms start stroking,
My heart starts pounding.
I fell happy.
After a day of problems and
Troubles,
I finally feel good.
In a world of uncertainty,
I finally know where I belong:
Soaring through the blue.

The water calls.
Calls my name.
The waves are coming
In a rhythmic beat.
They always move
But stay the same.

The water surrounds me.
My legs kick.
My arms stroke.
My heart pounds.
I finally belong.

At last, I feel
Like myself.
In a world
Of uncertainty,
I finally know
Where I am
Where I should be…
Soaring through the blue.

Spring

Spring is in the air.
The final rains of winter have dropped.
The warmth is coming and
The flowers are blooming.
The clouds are moving
Out to sea.
The wind is blowing
Hard and fierce,
But soon it will be
Soft and warm.
March is in like a lion
And out like a lamb.
April showers
Bring May flowers
But what do Mayflowers bring?
I love the spring
And I'm glad it's here
But why can't summer
Be more near?

Untitled

When I see you,
I start to shake
My breath gets so shallow
And my heart starts to break.
I wish I could tell you just how I feel
But first I want to make sure
This feeling is real.
I hide my emotions
On the outside
But you are the
Only thing on my mind.

Math Class

Calculus and trigonometry
Algebra and geometry.
Chi squared and y squared and
pie are not round.
Triangles, circles and hexagons abound.
Fractions confuse me,
And division is bad.
I understand addition
And for multiplication I'm glad.
But when you ask me about
Tangents and sines, I can't even count.
Triangles and circles seem
Simple at first
But when equations are added,
I think they are cursed.
Math class is helpful
In some aspects of life,
But what if I'm a chef?
Will I have to measure my knife?

Normal

Why can’t I be normal?
Why do those words and numbers
Stick in my brain until I
Want to scream?
Why are my hands never clean,
And why do bits of dust and grime
On paper rule my mind?
Everything tiny seems to
Control me.
Let me ask you this:
Does this seem healthy?
