Collage of LOVE

I LOVE YOU

Just for Six

   Close your eyes
Clean your heart 

        Fear is Dumb, so are regrets

What we think, we become

Poetry Mash-Up

So much depends

On how I feel.

The words are so familiar

But at my back I always hear

“We were all beautiful once…”

The look of my face when He saw it,

Did He like it?

Does it look beautiful to Him?

I guess…

There are worse things

Than being alone

Who Knew?

Oh the heart...

The only muscle

in the body

that can be broken

with a harsh word,

or be repaired

with a gentle touch...

You're Perfect to Me

Made a wrong turn, Once or twice

Dug my way out, Blood and fire

Bad decisions, That's alright

Welcome to my silly life

Mistreated, misplaced, misunderstood

Miss "no way, it's all good", It didn't slow me down

Mistaken, Always second guessing

Under estimated, Look, I'm still around

Pretty, pretty please

Don't you ever, ever feel

Like your less than perfect.

Pretty, pretty please

If you ever, ever feel

Like your nothing

You're perfect to me.

You're so mean,

When you talk, About yourself, You are wrong.

Change the voices, In your head

Make them like you Instead.

So complicated,

Look happy, You'll make it!

Filled with so much hatred

Such a tired game.

It's enough, I've done all I can think of

Chased down all my demons, I've seen you do the same.

Oh, Pretty, pretty please

Don't you ever, ever feel

Like your less than perfect.

Pretty, pretty please

If you ever, ever feel

Like your nothing

You're perfect to me.

It Saves Me

I wear a mask. Most don't know or see the mask, but I wear it. I wear it to hide my true self. When I look in the mirror, I sometimes can't recognize myself. I forget to take off the mask and I am a stranger to me. I try to show my true self to people, but the mask protects me from the pain, the anger, the hurt. It shows I am happy and loving on the outside while on the inside. I am screaming, just wanting to let go of the anger, but I can't risk being seen. What will happen if my mask falls off? How will people see me? A fraud? A fake? the mask is my new character. It's the other me. The one that has never been hurt by a word, stabbed in the back by an action, sad from consequences. My mask saves me from being judged. But I can feel my mask slowly attaching more and more. It wants to cover the real me for good. Do I let it? I can become someone else, some one new. But part of me wants to stay. The real me wants to stay.

What makes you happy?

As we have learned in Creative Writing, we will die. So the only thing to do is do what we love. As long as we are doing that, life will be worth living.

Space... The final frontier

Have you ever wondered if there are aliens out there... in space? Well, here are some ways to tell if there are aliens already on our mother earth.

1. Aliens often wear huge sunglasses to hide their eyes. Most aliens have large, staring eyes that are hard to conceal. Sunglasses help them appear more normal.
2. Aliens have cold and clammy skin. Many aliens wear synthetic skin in order to pass themselves off as human. It's never as warm as real skin, and it often feels "slimy" to the touchy.
3. They smell. Aliens use all manner of deodorants, perfumes, or lotions to disguise their natural scent, which is offensive to humans.
4. Aliens are obsessed with technology. They spend hours chatting on cell phones and sending e-mails. But they're not conversing with people -- they're actually transmitting data they've accumulated back to their home worlds.
5. Aliens have strange bodily proportions. The newest breeds of aliens attempt to imitate human appearance -- but they never quite get it right. They are like exaggerated ideas of human perfection. Their stomachs are too flat, their chests too big, their faces wrinkle-free.
6. Aliens have strange diets. Aliens may not be able to digest most human foods. Because of this, they are limited in the types of foods they can eat, and they may become vegetarians. Watch out for people who eat a lot of melons -- that's an alien favorite.
7. Aliens dance in inhuman ways. Most alien species have a completely different physiology than ours. They have the ability to move their bodies to music in a way no ordinary human can, and this results in a dancing style that is quite breathtaking.
8. Aliens do not understand Earth's sense of humor. Forget what you saw on Mork and Mindy. Aliens find it difficult to understand laughter -- even a simple knock-knock joke can throw them completely off. They might laugh at inappropriate times -- like during a funeral -- or stare blankly at the funniest jokes.
9. Aliens dress in oddly revealing clothes. Aliens find clothing irritates their flesh, so the less of it they wear, the more comfortable they are. They also like to keep their fake human skin exposed to air, to allow it to breathe.

Funny Bone

Here are some things that you can laugh about. Just to lighten your day. Hope you Enjoy,

Live like you were dying.

      Dear old friend,
Have you ever realized that I am here for you. Helping any time I can. You have never seen me, but you have felt my presence. When you have fallen off your road bike with scrapes and scares, I have picked you up and dusted you off. Given you more chances than you deserve, but you are my friend. My oldest and bravest friend. You have shown your courage so many times it's hard for me to count them. You come to me and I send you away because its too soon for you to properly meet me. But I am getting older and so are you. You are slowly calling to me more and more in your sleep. To take away the pain. But I don't want to. I don't want you to waste your breath on me. Keep holding on until it's too hard. Then, then I will be there. Right next to you. Holding you up. You will see my face snd know that I am your oldest friend. Now you can properly meet me.
             Sincerely,
                           Death
