words...
ambiguous to the mind at times, 
although crystal clear to the heart
herein lies the key, the answer- 
the solution to many puzzles.
does a reader understand the author 
by glancing over his work?
do the words form a pattern 
or a riddle for one to solve?
words are written down on paper 
to be a marker for a thought
how they are taken is a sign 
of the placement of the reader's mind
a human takes what he/ she sees 
and contorts them to their heart's content
knowingly or unknowingly so- 
this is the way the world turns...
--me (01.26.03)

Raindrops fall hard on the ground,
the tears rolling down my face allow no sound.
i remember the times of sunshine and smiles,
but it seems i wasted time after all those trials.
the only question i can think of is "why?"
confused, frustrated, and lost- all i can give is a sigh.
losing interest in trying so hard
continual failure makes me feel like a f*ing retard.
but still, somehow, i'm finding some strength
for the things i have, i'm giving my thanks.
i'll keep on pushing until i get back to the top,
we'll see what life throws me to try and get me to stop.
i will make it through
trusting in friends that are true-
i will dance away the tormenting anger
and to my friends, no longer be a stranger.
... in the end- i WILL stand.
