Well this week has been kind of boring and slow except for today that I get to go to a play in Salt Lake, which I always like to go to, also because there is nothing much to do at my proctor home.
I also had to do a three page paper on John F. Kennedy. It wasn’t too bad I finished it like in one day. Hopefully I pass this term with c grades or higher, because my language arts class is the only one I barley passed with a d minus. This is not too good, if I’m going to want to graduate early. Plus the next three to four months are going to be boring because my home visits got canceled, for smoking weed but I at least told them the truth. They at least didn’t lock me up which I’m pretty happy about. My judge didn’t get to mad either when my caseworker told him I over lapsed. I probably have one of the best judges because if it would have been some other judge I would have gotten locked up or sent to a group home. I want to also start living on my own, which I know is not going to be too easy but I want to try it.

Dream

A lot of people tell me that I shouldn’t follow my dreams. I don’t understand why. If these people really cared about me, then wouldn’t they want me to do what I love? I am passionate about music. I want to play in a band and eventually probably become a music producer. People tell me there isn’t money in this field. My answer is, quite frankly, I don’t care.
What I’m trying to get at is that if you don’t love what you do for a living, then you won’t enjoy life. I know plenty of people who hate their job. I don’t want that. Follow your dreams because doing what someone else wants you to do will bring unhappiness.
Music is what I am going to do. No one else can tell me what I should love. I don’t care about money. My parents want me to go into computer technology. I just keep telling them one day I will make my own choices and that they won’t really have any say in it. I’m shooting for the stars.
In conclusion, follow your dreams. Don’t let anybody else push you around into something you don’t want to do. Just because someone has your supposed best interests in mind doesn’t mean that they really care about your passion. Whether you want to be a doctor, construction worker, or even McDonalds manager, as Nike would say, just do it!

The book says that they were dancing to the song from Barbados that Tituba was singing. Another reason they were doing that could be that Tituba was a witch or something like it and was doing some kind of sorcery or summoning. So it could be a lot of different things. Maybe she was doing some religious song and dance that Paris didn’t approve of it because he was a Puritan and wanted Tituba to get into trouble because of it. He wouldn’t let his reputation go down the drain. It could also be that she was a very religious person, and people that were of the same religion either followed her or thought she was high in their religion. So she could have wanted to teach or purify the kids for some reason. Betty could have been affected by some supernatural force or something. It could have looked like she was a witch to Paris. So there are a lot of reasons that you could come up with for it.

So how long does it take you to finally realize what you have? I love my life and most of the people in it. I messed up, my bad. Stop stating the obvious already, that’s almost all I do now. I’m trying to figure out my life and my surroundings and what they really mean. I don’t want to live in this world not knowing about anything. I think that everything will be okay I’ve come along way, and people notice my strengths even when I don’t. If there is a God out there I hope he has enough guts to tell me what my purpose is and why I’ve been through all the shit I’ve been through. Life is weird and seems kind of pointless without a God, but it gives you one less thing to worry about.

Human

If it spills onto the carpet,
Does it show lack of movement?
We show that in which we want,
But greatly desire that which we show.
We look into the fateful mirror,
Only to see those dreadful eyes.
We walk in, with the willowy grass,
So the love of desire can show.
To walk with the fields of nature,
We see all that has and will come.
But to walk in the fields, our own,
We have to achieve that one impossible.
To be the man everybody desires,
Is the only way to live humanity.

The teeth in the dark

The streets are filled
They are here on command
They have all bled
They don’t know that they are the damned
They don’t know that I watch
They have no clue that I fight
That I fight for them
That I bleed for them
That I am defending the last hope
That I am the one that walks through the demons
That I am the teeth in the dark that bite, tear, rip.
That I am condemned to hell for them.
This is my personal brand of hell
This is the world we made
This is the pain that we inflicted
This is the cut that we made
We are dying and it is inevitable
The pain subsides as the last screams die out
The world ends…

Hunger, the driver of eternity,
Taste, that devilish fiend,
Making us strive for better’s exponent.

Death, that beautiful traitor,
Reaper, his furnace through you, staring,
Seeing yours every action.

Emotions, that glorious deceiver,
Love, the fire burning in me,
For the person you seem to be.

Relations, those essential pains,
Embrace, that sweet action,
Dripping from my every pore.

Thoughts, that taker of all,
Reasons, the ones I keep dear,
For, though I be yours, what return is there?

Tired

Sleep,
Or the lack of,
In a case
Such as this

It creeps on you
Like a running cup of spilt milk
I question
What the hell was I thinking?

It takes over
And laughs at you
While your head bobs
In the not so kind sunlight

I don’t understand
Why the withering branches of sleep
Can’t go entwine their corrupt roots
On someone else

He takes you
Boredom…
Eventually tearing away
Walls of consciousness

Simply taking over your day
And then when you go away
Good dreams either can be your
Best friend or worst enemy

Chains.

By Mike


Chains that Lock and Chains that Bind,
Not Outside but in the Mind.
You can’t see them but you know their there.
They don’t leave cuts or bruises but you feel their strain,
They don’t clank or rattle and people don’t know about the battle,
That takes place within that you can never win.
Take it for what you want but,
They are Chains that Lock and Chains that Bind,
Not Outside but in the Mind.

I loath you!!! [With all my black heart]

Your so stupid girl stupid and fake!!
Shut up and use your real voice for fucks sake!
Leave me alone I can’t stand to look at you
People hate you, not my fault; it’s the cards you drew
Why can’t you speak your damn mind?
I can’t wait to leave your sorry ass behind
This is not innocence that escapes your horrid lips
Lets tear out your evil heart and cut it into bloody strips
Deep down all I see is an introvert little bitch
Screw you I’m gone leave my soul in your backyard ditch

Samm is cool. Samm makes me drool.
Samm is awesome, she makes me feel like I’m about to blossom.
Samm, Samm will you be my friend?

You mean a lot to me. Will you be by my bestest friend?
You rock! If anyone ever messes with you let me know and I’ll hit em with the left sock.
You’re my friend always and forever you and I will cherish a friendship that will hopefully last forever and ever……..
I love you.

Dreams

The rises and falls of the greatest ever.
But the best will not quit now and never.
Hard challenges as you make your way to the top.
You have to keep going and never stop.
To fulfill your dreams in a matter of time.
Be the best when your in your prime.
So take what you have to get there.
Then with your grandchildren you can share.
Thinking your going to be an all-star.
Not knowing how long it will be or how far.

~`Sad Day`~

Pulling her hair out,
Wondering why she doubts,
Her friends pass by,
She’s done getting high,
Her dreams soar,
She loves them to her core,
Life isn’t fair,
But she knows they care,
Good byes are not final,
Our love lasts forever,
I’ll wait.

Hints of commitment, affection, and loyalty
Bringing you into a relationship hoping to show you the light.

Teardrops will soak into the cheek
While the heart starts cracking, but not shattered completely through.
Anxiety will overcome you with impure thoughts
And slowly your soul will become sick and weak.

Sunshine will turn to a blur
The flowers will lose its scents,
My hopes and dreams withering away
Just hoping and wishing I was still with her.

Life

Death is slow and painful
I sit in this chair and down this fifth
It makes my head go into a daze
Soon after the pain of this broken heart cease
And I pray to soon join you in a better place
I can feel it, it is almost time I need one more piece to fall into place
I take this pain and spread it everywhere
This will end or I will die trying
In the end what will I have? Nothing
In the end what did I gain? Nothing
In the end death shall be quiet and still
This life always has an end
I have lived long enough
I have endured much now it is my time
May god watch over my sons and daughters
I will not end in a hospital bed I will pass at my home
May my body be burned and spread through the mountains
In a truly serene area untouched by man
In a place where there is a clear view to heaven
It is my time to go.

For my father.

The Other Part Of Me

I hear you breathing, yes you, the ugly girl who has taken over my face
Maybe I hate you for making me hate myself but you hurt me with your strong embrace
I dread the very day I run out of makeup and hair spray
That day will never come you see?
I’m done waking up to your sickening face in my reflection everyday
I can’t wait for the day your forever gone out of my life
The day will be when my eyes are closed and lay there under a light a man and a knife
After that one more waking pain will come but its mostly your pain
Your gone, I have a relief and now no fears no more life for you to drain

It’s like a flower in the bright sun. It wakes and shines.
In the darkness of the night it closes off from the world.
Waiting to get that chance to be in perfect light.
But what if the sun doesn’t come out? What is the flower worth?
It stays closed off. No sun for a month.
Slowly but surely it dies because it was closed off from the world to long.

Away

That was the life I knew
Feeling lost and all alone
The Black Hole feels as
It grows day by day

Despite all this
I’ve never felt so
Jubilee
Here and right now

The songs of Change
Whistle their lovely
Rhythm
In my disobedient brain

Everything seems to fade
And yet I’ve never felt
Closer…
Black Holes

Who Am I?
Who will be there?
Love.
The answer is unknown even to that Black Hole

Will I be invisible?
Will they be there?
No, Yes.
Be gone Black Hole.

I will be back one day.
Black Hole
I don’t want to fear
Those who love

I Hate You

I HATE YOU
I hate you and all you do
I hope ever thing I say will really get through to you
You make me sick and I want to beat you with a big stick
You suck and smell like butt
You thought when we first met you hit me with your love struck
Your lame and aint got game
Go to school cause you talk and act like
A dumb fool
I can believe I dated you I’m so glad were through
Peace out….. I never even liked you

Secret

by Mike

She is you secret lover.
She holds you in your time of need.
When you first find her she’s just a friend,
When she finely starts to wrap her arms around you,
You welcome her warm embrace.
As you start to give her things quicker than you can notice she’s your whole life.
And she’s taking all that you have pulling you over the edge.
You can’t see anything but her beautiful welcoming face.
While you’re not looking she wraps you up so you can’t get away.
But why would you want to her sweet smell and extreme beauty is pulling you closer.
She is your only light in this dark world.
She leads you down a path of heartache and pain.
She’s always there to pick you up but you’d never know she’s the one who knocked you down.
All you feel is her goodness you always forget about the bad.
You look into her eyes and it’s the last thing that you see and now you bound to be like,
me.

Victorious?

Wars desire, death thee,
We show want of life, free,
But ever need for war.
Trained in the moment,
To others show our worth, we,
Upon our dying ever day.
In the moment of naming,
Victors a good name yes,
Shall we ever view differ.
In the world, us its feed,
Unto the world show death,
Ever naturally are we there.
In ours of the dark veil,
We see past essences in,
Until the day claims, we,
Shall I ever be with thee, o’death.

Poetry

Suicide

Jumping from the tree tops,
Wishing the world was gone,
His vainy green body floats through the wind,
Even a leafs life sometimes turns blue,
He’s fighting a war of his own,
Life flashes past his eyes,
He hits the ground,
In a moment it’s all gone.




Street Dance

I dance in the street,
To a new beat,
I’m all alone,
Seeds of greatness in me they’ve sown,
Colors drift past,
Their all going to fast,
I’ve learned to dance in the streets all alone,
Where I call it home.

Dining Alone

Sorrow and agony flowed down her cheeks
Her, gazing at the stars
Trying to find the gold at the end of the rainbow.
Wishing hearts didn’t shatter, didn’t tear, didn’t break, didn’t beat, didn’t willow Away.

Emotions are trickling with the rain…
Fastly coming down and slowly drying up.
White turns to black, pink turns to a deep red, while green hardens to a lonesome blue.

Her heart hearkens for the clouds to fade away,
The rain to stop!
Again, looking for that gold at the end of the colorful rainbow.

Goodbye

I think about these days that have passed by
And about the day I had to say goodbye.
At times it’s hard and I wish I could just discharge and be back in your heart. Then again I think what I’ve worked for and who has my heart. Could I hurt him and leave him for you…. It’s hard to say but this could never be true. I hate you, I love him. I want you, I want him. I love you but I hate what you put me through.
Why am I still here thinking I can’t be happy with out you. I doubt myself when I should be real with myself. He makes me happy and does more then you could or would ever do. Most of all he would never put me through all the things you would do. I hate to say goodbye because it brings tears to my eyes but I know this time has come to move on and I have no regret I never would have never learned things in life if I had never got taken away. …… so here come comes the words I’ve dread and wish I would have never said but now am proud to say everyday is a better day without you in my life. Goodbye… I hope all the love you had for me has faded away and you see your betters days….

Relaxed

Relaxed is sky blue.
It sounds like the calm ocean.
It tastes like the cookies fresh out of the oven.
It smells like the air at the beach
Relaxed feels like the warm sand pressed against your skin.

As I see myself in the mirror I see all I wished I could be.
The person people want around, the one that could always be called on,
The one who did no wrong.
As I see all that I’m not.
A voice in the back of my mind comes alive once again,
It’s the sweet loving voice so rarely herd in my childhood.
It told me not to worry everything would be ok.
Even though there was pain there would be happiness.
As I let these words soak through me I realized everything went though did have a purpose.

Anger

Anger is red
It sounds like a atomic bomb going off in your head
It tastes like a bitter sweet, unripe lemon
It smells like copper almost the metallic smell of blood
Anger feels like a thousand pins and needles driven into your limbs.

Life

Life good but when the law comes
To take you down it is just not that
Fun but when they do bust you it
Teaches you a listen about life to
Take care of your self and your
Own family so you do not cause
Them your own pain.

Emotional Neglect

My days are numbered and lonely here
Not returning home is now my only fear
The pain I fell is trapped like a trench deep inside
My scars are deep in my heart, easy to hide
I cry because it makes the most sense
The world is broken like an old picket fence
So now I watch as the blue sky fades black
As I try to make up these things in life that I lack
Right now, is it anger that I feel?
If that’s the case, it’s others joy I must steal
World would you be so kind as to grant me this?
That each day provides us with something new
Bring us happiness in knowing that love is true
My soul is yours if that’s your desire
Saying I need that empty space would make me a liar
What I really want and need now is this dear world
Is for my feelings to calm and not swirled
Please watch the ones I love
Maybe one day I’ll find truth in what lies above.

Memory

The word of the past,
To show us what was.
It never leaves us,
Yet it is never there.
Omnipotent, though we are,
It evades us ever.

To show the power us to,
It controls eye of mind.
Leads us around paths new,
To recreate ours, a new fate.
To its purposes of self,
Shows its mind to us too.

Control it are thoughts ours,
Our intentions, narcissism.
Out hands to grasp they do,
We show our mind-span puny.
In the end it is ever gone,
But ever in front of us.

Urging the undeniable power,
Shows us what it can do.
Of all the things we can do.
Of all the power, will we have.
Why is it, oh ye sons of god,
Cant you control your mind, fate?

Her

Her


Your talking haunts me
And still I hunger for you
Live life with so much to say
And yet I strive for you

Your constant need
Feeds my addicted veins
I don’t understand
But I still partake of the fruit that you offer

I feel as though I can’t
Could never
Part from this
And yet, I’m throwing up cancer

Your stench of speech
Feeds my addicted soul
And yet
I still eat that of which you give

I look at it as game
Unconquerable it may be
And Still
I hunger for you

I question to myself
Am I living a Lie?
My only answer is
Hunger controls me.

Chaos

CHAOS


Definition: A state of things in which chance is supreme.

Chaos is what this whole world is made of
Some things happen in the craziest ways,
And sometimes nothing happens
I rather live my life out of surprise
Then I would have accident forgiveness they forgive and I forget.
Addicted to wild playgrounds and adrenalin,
What to do trips and falls feels like a dream
I want it so bad that it turns out to be real life
I need a risk-o-meter to see how high I can get with out anything holding me back
People get lost in there.

Sports

Sports
Definition: Game, contest, or other pastime requiring some skill and usually involving a certain amount of exercise.

Dreams begin with a game plan,
The one of a kind crowd and every last fan.
Teams are made together,
And are supposed to last forever.

Fierce pride in every sport,
The whole team is your support.
The rise and fall of every player,
Every sport has its own kind of danger.

Sports. . . are where dreams begin.
