Are you?

What is a friend?

Have you ever wondered if you are a good friend?
A true friend?
A loving friend?




True friends should strengthen each other.
Encourage each other be the best you can be.
Always lifts you up.


"Friends are like fudge. Mostly sweet with a few nuts."
Just remember that true friends are hard to find. Make sure you are one of them.

Afraid? Me? Never.

I am afraid.
Afraid of life.
Afraid to live. 
Afraid to die.

Afraid of love.
Afraid of hope.
Afraid of dreaming.
Afraid of being broken.

Oh so afraid.
Of spiders.
Of monsters.
Of scary movies.

I am very afraid.
Of growing up.

I'm afraid.
Of pressure.
Of friends.
Of not being me.

Oh afraid.
Of dating.
Of being loved.
Of kissing someone.

So afraid.
Of being a nobody.
Of being somebody.
Of being afraid.

I am afraid of everything.
I am afraid of nothing.




Being afraid is normal. It's human. Love being afraid.

Rhythm is a Dancer

Have you ever realized how much music influences us? We hear and listen to music every day of our lives. When reading this, how many of you were listening to music? How many of us listen to music while writing papers, doing homework, or even writing on our blogs? Exactly.

Here is a poem I found that describes music. Enjoy.


Music
Music brings joy,
to all of our hearts,
It's one of those,
emotional arts.
Sounds of melodies,
that we truly adore,
Brings us pure pleasure,
as our spirits do soar.
Music that touches us,
we can't help but smile,
We're free to choose,
genre or style.
Music clearly,
enlightens our days,
Makes us happy,
in so many ways.

Just realize that music is everywhere. It can inspire you to create beautiful poems, creative painting and even your own song lyrics. Music is wonderful. Love it.

What it LOVE?!

As I have been thinking about what to write for this prompt. I came up with nothing. I don't know what love it. All I really know is that people think teens don't know love and don't experience it during adolescence. Maybe they are right. But could they be wrong?

How do we know we are in love? How do we even describe love?

In the dictionary, the definition of love is;

Noun:
An intense feeling of deep affection: "their love for their country."
A profoundly tender, passionate feeling towards a person.

Verb:
Feel a deep romantic attachment to (someone): "do you love me?"

But how do we know we are feeling love? When we go and talk to a cute guy/girl, we get sweaty palms and forehead, butterflies in our stomach, and our heart starts to race. But we also have sweaty palms, butterflies and increases blood pressure when we are angry or afraid. How do we tell it is love we are feeling and not anger or fear?

If there is one thing I know about love, it is this. Love Never Fails. Sure there are ups and downs but in the end, everything works out. Maybe teens don't know love yet. But we will. Someday.

What to do, what to do?

I have realized that I am not a very good poet. So I have decided for my other the "other blog post," i will write a poem and I need some feedback.


She Says
She says she is nice. She is not. She says she cares. She really doesn't  She says she will keep your secrets. But that is a lie. She says that she is dumb. She is not. She says she is fat. Not at all. She says she is like my sister. But we are not related at all. She says every one likes her. That is false. She says this guy likes her. I asked the guy and he said no way. She says she can control me. But no more. No more she says. Now its I say. I say.

Alive

What does being alive mean? I mean... aren't we all alive?

 I believe we are all human and we are all alive. I mean we bleed when we fall off our bikes and scrape our knees. We all fall in love. We all show some emotions. We all need food to get the energy we need throughout the day. I don't think any of us plug ourselves in at night to receive energy that we are in dire need of.

We all just need to remember that we are human and it is a privilege to be alive. Love life, Laugh lots, Love forever!
