Made Me Smile
Stepping off the bus.
My shoes meeting the ground once again.
Turn to the left.
Turn to the right.
I am here.

Through the doors.
Anxious to see my friends.
Always in the same place.
I know that most like my hugs.
I see more faces.

People turn and smile and wave.
Others just continue talking.
Then I see my friends.
Time for hugs!
I see more faces.

Some of my teachers.
Some of my friends.
Some of my mentors.
Some make me laugh.
None make me angry.

Stepping into the bus.
Buckling up.
Looking out the window.
My friends, and my teachers
Made me smile.

Over There

Where are you when I cry?

Where are you when I fall?

I look around.

Up and down.

Left and right.

But you are not here.

I will cry a little more to see if you come.

To see if you care.

I look around.

Up and down.

Left and right.

I do not see you there.

I look around.

One more time.

Up and down.

Left and right.

And over there.

I look behind me.

I see a shadow.

It does not belong to me.

There you are.

Over there.

Now just a memory.

Fading away.

Dark Sunset

In the forest.

Damp and dark.

The Sun is blocked.

Birds stop singing.

In the forest.

Shadows take over.

It is a dark sunset.

It cannot be seen.

Focus

People all around.

Talking! Always talking!

Headphones are on.

They don't seem to help.

Focus. Keep trying.

Deep in thought.

Hurry! Don't wait!

Now think harder.

Don't ever give it up.

Focus. Keep trying.

This is it.

Focus. Keep trying.

Hit "Snooze"
I hit the "snooze" button. 
I once again begin to dream. 
Still awake, but in my own world. 
I don't dream pretty. 
I don't dream of princes on ponies or frogs and kisses. 
I dream of the reality of life and the reality of death. 
Like I said before, I'm in my own world. 

In my dreams, life is always there. 
Death retreats in despair. 
In my dreams, people play fair.
But this can't be right. 
My life isn't perfect and the world…
it doesn't play fair. 

Death sets its trap.
It waits in the shadows. 
Life is ensnared.
It is taken away.
Death leaps out of the shadows.
Then stares at its prey. 
Life looks up, but not at its killer.
Death looks up and starts to shiver. 

Life just smiles and closes its eyes.
For a new Life is born. 
Life is back.
Death is now frightened. 
Life fills my world.
I emerge from my dream. 
My alarm goes off.
The "snooze" button is no longer appealing. 
I get out of bed.
And although Life and Death never play fair, I want to see what happens. 
Right now I really don't care. 
Today, Life is in my favor.
 At this moment, Death is nowhere.

You Can't See Me

I am alive and I am well. I breathe and I have emotions. I smile and I laugh. I walk among you. I do the things you do. I say the things you say. I feel the things you feel. You can't see me. I keep it all in. You can't see the real me.
