The saddest day

The day she stops pretending

The day she wakes up to only find that the world is filled with monsters

Only they are not as easy to spot as the one's in the closet or under the bed

The day she will blame you for making her believe what you told her was true

Setting her up for disappointment and all along knowing you were only doing it for her own good

And what about the day she tells you she hates you and the world is ripped up from under you

You believe what you are told not out of ignorance, but more or less because of wishful thinking

And somewhere down the line it comes back to bite you in the ass

Because if everyone always got what they wanted pain, suffering, and endurance wouldn't exist

So the saddest day of all is today

The day I chose to let go of something I knew wouldn't work

But in my head I had led myself to believe so

Because maybe I was too scared to look at myself in the mirror and know what kind of person I have become

What about the day she lies straight to your face?

And you come to find she has decieved you in the worst way

She has made her bed and lays in another

If all you wanted was the satisfaction of "winning", well you can have it

It just goes to show the kind of person you are

I hope you're happy, I know I am

My guardian Angel

When I look back I bear in mind all the mistakes I made

Mistakes like thinking "I hope I don't end up like her"

and more importantly believing I was destined to become her

Today her life is as plentiful as any, if not more

And truth is, I would be blessed if my life turned out to be even a quarter of how good hers is

Sometimes people take for granted the smallest of things

Like the simplicity of smiling at the dinner table

Something that seems so natural

So today and for the rest of my life I will be thankful for the fact that God has blessed me with the greatest of family

The most unique

And to my guardian angel who heard my cries, thank you

I now realize the kind of life I want to lead

Something more spiritual, more refined

Being alone has never been so tranquil

It is just what I needed

Brawer family- Things will get better if they have not already ceased to

You're always in my thoughts and prayers

She has changed my life more than you know it

Artie- I made sure to stuff myself for the both of us yesterday

I'm sure our college essay will be liked, if not loved..

The Prayer

I remember a time when I hadn't had much to worry about

And usually the things that worried me even in the slightest manner were not my own worries

To an extent this frustrated me

I guess I thought having worries made your life exciting

I was so wrong for thinking this

At least now I see

Life cannot be measured in the way you spend your Friday nights, or how many friends you have, or even if you've experienced love

Life is not a measurable object, not a force to act upon

Whoever said there were no rules in life must have had it coming to them

There are rules when it comes down to anything, and so there has to be rules to living

I pray now that God forgive me in my time of need

For all the rules I did break

God had blessed me with intellect

And I refused to use it

For so many years God had steered me on the right path

But I chose to walk ahead

And so if this is God's way of letting me know that I have to listen

Well then I'm listening

I'm hoping He will listen too

Grace Kelly

I think it is in the way I present myself

How I quote- "Come off" to people

And to be quite honest I really do like it that way

I mean, I never intended it to happen, but so it has

And so it shall remain

Last Tuesday made me think, why is it people try to so hard cover up their true selves?

Or emotions in this case

I'll admit it, I sat by that telephone for almost 48 hours hoping you'd call

Something I had told myself years in advance I'd never do

And that's when I asked myself..When does it end?

If I don't stop for a second and recognize the hipocrit I have become, who's to say I won't ever get over this

And there it was

In the calm feeling that lurked through my pitch black room

I pushed the red bitton in so hard, as if releasing all my anger, hostility, and fustrations with it

It's the sense of closure that I want

It doesn't matter, whether it'd be an end or even a fresh start

Just the feeling of knowing the answer

When it was virtually impossible to get it on your own

So I'm guessing this is another lesson learned

Be careful, you're the only person who has the time and desire to look out for yourself

And trust me, no ones doing that for you

Not even the people that claim to it

Systematic

His birth made me realize I don't want life to move any faster

And if it was possible I would have frozen that moment forever

As we all circled the corridor of that open room

I remember that feeling, that feeling of hope for the future

That he had come just in time to wipe the grim faces off of all of us

He was God's gift to all of us, just in the moment we needed him most

They say as one life ends another begins

But I wish it didn't have to be that way

For the most part, this irony occurs in many instances of life

Having to let go in order to regain something we feel we need or want more

And that is why you can never have everything you want, it just doesn't work that way

Life is a huge pool of human detachments

You say to yourself "Okay this is hurt, I have felt hurt"

And you forever detach yourself from that feeling, so as you will never let yourself feel hurt again or vise versa

So with that said, I understand why time cannot stand still

And more importantly, why I would never want it to

Becasue there is so much more waiting out there for me, for everyone, to see

Without forgetting that to be able to have the full experience you must first allow yourself to let go of something in return

Hush

It may be true

What we fear most is silence

For in silence there also lurks the unknown

The simple fact that separates today from tomorrow

And forgiving from forgetting

But in this silence I feel peace

Peace of mind in knowing we don't have to speak to make things better

That we are as close together as the silence will let us be

We break free from silence one more time

To have only the stories, what we hoped to ward off, come crashing down on us

They seem to still be a mystery to me

In all there blissful happiness

They are able to let go

But could it be that something left to grow tall and strong will only end up weak?

And there, silence takes over again

It is serene

Fear not silence, but the fact that in silence we can no longer hide behind, the now, open doorways of our own lives
