Poem from 10th grade
Was looking over my FB notes and noticed that I never had put this poem up on any of my blogs. This was back in the beginning of 10th grade. This list has additions on it but I think I'll leave this poem alone and make a different one if I really want to.
Walking beside the land of the dead
There is a small path on which I tread
Life to one side, death on the other
Neither I choose, with neither I bother
At a time I traveled on the paths of the living
Once my paths were lovely, bright and teeming
Then storms of life blew me to where I stand
Two voices argue in my head on where I will now land
Outside there are other whose paths mingle with mine
Those who make sure that I do not yet cross the line
Some of them are older and some are younger
Compared to them I am weak and they are stronger
There is one who is older and more experienced
It was in her office and home I talked and cried
There is one who usually sits with me in there
Once who gave me hugs and told me that she would care
There is one who clings to me and me to her
She 'helps' with math and named me her owner
There is one who named me her Teddy Bear
Fed me wai-wai and told me she would be there
There is one who calls me Teddy and younger sister
She made me feel beautiful and kept me alive in summer
There is one who is younger and the one I call Pillow
Kept my secrets so that dad and mimu would not know
There is one who I found the most strength in
Scared me to death at times but helped with healing
Who wanted me to live and bandaged my wrists
A brother who carried me around and beat my lists
Someone who let me cry on his shirt and make it wet
Made the wrong conclusion and then kept his mind set
Gave me things and wouldn't let me pay him back
Annoyed me in nightmares, saved me from monkey attacks
All these people are very much the reason I am still here
They wiped my tears, gave me hugs and calmed my fears
This is my real family, my clean up and happy making crew
They are the only people I think I can truly tell 'I love you.'

Welcome the Rain
Stepping out, hit by the smell of rain
The earth giving it's self up to it
Inhaling I sigh, content with the world
Closing my eyes, I step into the rain
The soft drizzle falling on me
I turn my face upwards, smile on my lips
Dropping my bag, wind ruffling my hair
Spreading my arms wide in welcome
The wind responds, chills down my spine
Slowly spinning, slowly gaining momentum
It comes down faster, clothes getting soaked
Rainwater droplets spiraling away from me
Stopping, walking slowly towards the edge
I open my eyes to see the grey sky stirring
First strike of lightening and sounds of thunder
Content, I let the wind carry me away.
The earth giving it's self up to it
Inhaling I sigh, content with the world
Closing my eyes, I step into the rain
The soft drizzle falling on me
I turn my face upwards, smile on my lips
Dropping my bag, wind ruffling my hair
Spreading my arms wide in welcome
The wind responds, chills down my spine
Slowly spinning, slowly gaining momentum
It comes down faster, clothes getting soaked
Rainwater droplets spiraling away from me
Stopping, walking slowly towards the edge
I open my eyes to see the grey sky stirring
First strike of lightening and sounds of thunder
Content, I let the wind carry me away.
