Your Eyes Twinkle

Your eyes twinkle
My heart Beats
You shoot a smile
I try to wink
You don't know how I feel
And I like it that way
Because you and me
Are BFFs.
And that could be ruined
Right here
Right today
So my heart is left wondering
Is this really right
And still I decide not to tell
Maybe I'll wait 'til tonight

Love

Love
Is what I thought I felt when I looked at you
My cheeks blushed when you kissed me softly
My eyes twinkled when you said I was beautiful
My heart warmed when we shared our love
Hate
Is what I feel now that I know the truth
My face flushed with anger when I caught you
My eyes filled with fire when she kissed you
My heart cracked when you pulled her closer
Vengeance
Is what I felt was right at the time
I giggled sweet when your brother called me cute
I twinkled my eyes when he said he was better
than you
I lead him close to my lips when you were coming
near
I smiled when I saw your face as he kissed me
I knew that this would hurt you deeply
Defeated
Is what I felt when we broke it off
You laughed and said "it's fine, that girl you saw
was only one of many"
You said the words I didn't wanna hear. I thought I loved you...

Your Love Is So Pure And True

Your love is so pure and true. Also, mine is, too. I caught your attention by a glimpse of light, and what it was--it was your beautiful brown eyes that stood out like the sun itself. Every time I hear your name, I blush. And every time you sit next to me, I get butterflies in my stomach. Your love and my love can be renewed. If we put it together, our love can be pure and true!

Broken Arms

Broken arms
Can heal
Bruises will go away
But a broken heart
Stays broken forever
A doctor can only do so much
Medicine to make you sleep
Pills to make you eat
But sometimes it isn't enough
You can't see this injury
No scan can penetrate
The broken heart inside me
It stays broken
Forever

by Mariah, 12

Final Good-bye

I hate the way you look at me with those mean and hurtful eyes.
I hate the way you tell me you love me... after you make me cry.
I hate your stupid computer you keep secret all the time.
I hate you so much, it makes me want to cry.
My tears used to fall for you in happiness, but now they fall with fear.
Fear that you are going to hurt me, and run away, my dear
I hate the way we need to be together, otherwise we are incomplete
I hate the way how, in our battles, you always claim defeat
You always seem to manage to break my heart in half
To mend it back together
Then stab me in the back
You suck, you lie, you always make me cry
I love you. Unfortunately.
I love you. I love you.
But this is my final good bye.

Strange and Different

At high trails you all act weird
Different than in school
Strange, like people I never knew

But have known for a while
Are you acting like real here
Or is the real you at school

I am very stumped right now
And do not know who you all really are
Can you be a nerd and funny at the same time?

Can you be afraid of the dark
But still be a school bully,
A cheerleader who likes to play in mud

A jock who loves his teddy?
I guess we all may never know
Get surprises every day

About how people can be strange and different
Than the people we know at school
And anywhere and everywhere else we go

Lamentations of a Prospective Student

Are your pamphlets
Supposed to seduce me?
Into something
That I'll
Profusely
Loathe
It's true
That I
Have been judged before
But not only
By what I've
Written on a card
No fair warning
Only that once entered
College is "hard"
These educators
Masquerade as Gods
Deemers of the worthy
And not
Who deserves this opportunity
So who does this fate beget?
Will the chosen ones
The winner of high school
Popularity contests
And extreme sport-like
Grade grubbing Olympians
Fill these institutes?
Must I write in fancy words such as these?
If I wish an adminstrator to please
Perhaps I'll get caught
Talking as I should not
My SATs
Are the only thing
That will please
So bottle up
My "personality"
In that neat little box
And try to see
Which box to check
Describes the real me

I Can't Say You Have To Stay

I can't say you have to stay
I can't force you to be ... always with me
I just need you to see ... what's wrong with me
It's your love, dear ...
That's what I fear ...

Illness is what I feel
Once I am hurt, I won't heal
So why is it OK with you
That you see my crying eyes
And my shaking hands
That couldn't say good-bye

'Cause I know that once I leave
There is no coming back
I would then live my life in pain
And I won't find no cure
And for my pain won't find relief

'Cause all what I need is for you to be around
Hold you close and not hear a sound
This really kills my pain
And make it through

And all I wish for is for my dream to be true
'Cause I just can't help loving you
Baby, all what I need you to do
Is to feel my pain and what I am going through

by Girl With Experience, 18

Eternal Love

I wonder if I dreamed of you-
if you would appear?
To make my nights full of love,
and always hold me near.

I wonder if I thought of you-
if you would feel it in your soul?
Like two spirits in the universe,
who always seem to know.

Even if the stars went black
and the sun were to shine no more.
They could find their way to each other,
no matter how far the shore.

Safely in each other's arms,
to bid the rest of time.
Finding Eternal Love
so many seek to find.

Caring for each other
through the worst of storms.
Leaning on the arms of love
and never need anymore.

This is how I feel for you,
I've known it all along.
You are my one true love
My world... My heart... My soul!

My Heart Pounds As I Wait For You

My heart pounds as I wait for you
Are you coming? Where are you?
Then you breeze in
Butterlies flutter
Your eyes are bright
I try to dull mine
Can you tell how glad I am to see you?
A seat is always empty next to me
Well planned, not an accident
Sit here, my heart pleads.
Please sit next to me
I smile, but only a little
No words; you talk first.
A hi, what's up
Nothing too big
I look away
I'm not too interested
But that's a lie
I wish you could see
How much I've been waiting for today

There's A Hole

There's a hole
In my heart
That's where you've
Torn it apart
And I still don't understand
Why you chose me
Then threw me away
When before I felt so free
I could fly
In your arms
Glide across the sky
Then you took it all away
I wish I hadn't realized
My happy life was fake
The love I felt
Was never real
Never there,
An illusion in my mind
And I cried so hard that night
And my imagination took flight
And I saw you
By my side
Never leaving
Always here
And I smiled
Hoping it were true
That there was love with me and you

by Mariah, 12
