Down the Rabbit Hole

Don't know about the title yet; just something I kinda thought of and stuck with. Internalization of other's problems/emotions can stir me to write, so that's where this came from.

Heart Concern (Don't Know What Else to Call It)

Another spontaneous gloom moment.....

Untitled (for now anyway)

Been feeling this way recently. Not entirely sure why, though. Just have

Jesus, Love

Just wrote this a few minutes ago. It was inspired by this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9AL65GPSfo. Hope you enjoy. Feedback/criticism is greatly appreciated. Thanks. Jesus loves you <3

As I Sit by the Graveside

Wrote this around 6th grade. Kinda wish I could still write like this; I think my old poems are really good compared to my newer ones. Anyway, this poem came after learning about the early patriots.

Endless Night

May change the title; not sure yet. This poem came from my boyfriend playing guitar one night; these words kinda came from what he was playing. Just another way God gives me inspiration to write.

Spontaneous Gloom

Poem I wrote the other night. Been in a mood to write dark poems lately, not entirely sure why. Also had another random depressed moment, which is where this poem came from.

The Burning Plate

Another poem from Creative Writing class. Not entirely sure about the flow of this one.

"There Rose Such a Clatter..."

Another poem from my creative writing class. This was one of the poems that had to focus on sound. Hope you enjoy. Jesus loves you <3 :)

Cuddling

Another poem from my creative writing class. Inspired by true events. Hope you enjoy. Jesus loves you <3 :)

Contrast

Another poem from my creative writing class. Inspiration came from looking at the night sky one night and thinking about how our sin is so dark; yet, God's love and glory still shines through.

Innocence

I wrote this poem while thinking about my nephew one day. The poem pretty much explains my thoughts. Sorry in advance if it depresses anyone.

A Slightly Alarming and Confusing Sense

Wrote this toward the end of my Junior year in high school. I was feeling somewhat down, but couldn't explain why. This poem is basically what I was feeling that afternoon.

Cutting

Just for the record, I have never cut. This poem was written after I thought about doing it one day and what I imagined it would be like. I advise you not to read if you're squeamish

Seeking Shelter

Wrote this poem sometime in middle school. I think the backstory has something to do with a disagreement some friends and I had, but I'm not entirely sure. Hope you enjoy. Jesus loves you <3 :)

Tragedy

This poem was written after my boyfriend told me the story of Junko Furuta (google her story if you haven't heard about her). It's basically my reaction to what happened to her.

That Time in the Cycle

Another poem from my Creative Writing class. This one had to be overstatement/understatement; I chose overstatement. Hope you enjoy. Jesus loves you <3 :)

Waves are Like the Cello

Another poem from Creative Writing. This had to mimic a musical instrument; I chose the cello. Hope you enjoy. Jesus loves you <3 :)

Aftermath

Another poem from Creative Writing. This poem had to sound like a whisper. Hope you enjoy. Jesus loves you <3

A Talk with God

Another poem from Creative Writing. This one has two include two levels of language. Hope you enjoy. Jesus loves you <3 :)

A Sweet Haunting

Another poem written in my Creative Writing class. The prompt for this one was "a poem about life's contrasting dualities, or paradoxes." Hope you enjoy. Jesus loves you <3 :)

Seesaw

One of the poems I wrote while taking a Creative Writing Class. The prompt was "a poem whose sound echoes meaning." Hope you enjoy. Jesus loves you <3
