You're crucified by the world we live in
I was born in this world but a baby.
I was forged by my experiances.
You were born in heaven as an angel,
And every day
You're crucified by the world we live in.
We're both forged by our lived lives,
You're perfect;
And I'm flawed,
But we get along so well.
Maybe one day
We will see eye to eye,
But that won't be anytime soon
Because
I was born in this world but a baby
I was forged by my experiences
You were born in heaven as an angel
And every day
You're crucified by the world we live in,
And I'm just...
I was forged by my experiances.
You were born in heaven as an angel,
And every day
You're crucified by the world we live in.
We're both forged by our lived lives,
You're perfect;
And I'm flawed,
But we get along so well.
Maybe one day
We will see eye to eye,
But that won't be anytime soon
Because
I was born in this world but a baby
I was forged by my experiences
You were born in heaven as an angel
And every day
You're crucified by the world we live in,
And I'm just...

UPBEAT INSPIRATIONAL POEM

I am still breathing
Despite everything
Life's thrown my way,
I'm still breathing
It's just quiet breathing
Shallow breathing.
I am a fighter,
Stronger than my adversaries,
The will of a bull,
Unable to be beaten.
Nothing will ever bring me down
In this life
I am the best
I am ready for anything
Life has to throw at me.
I will never give in,
Never die,
Never leave this life behind.
I own this life
I am always fighting
And
Despite everything
Life's thrown my way,
I'm still breathing
It's just quiet...
Life's thrown my way,
I'm still breathing
It's just quiet breathing
Shallow breathing.
I am a fighter,
Stronger than my adversaries,
The will of a bull,
Unable to be beaten.
Nothing will ever bring me down
In this life
I am the best
I am ready for anything
Life has to throw at me.
I will never give in,
Never die,
Never leave this life behind.
I own this life
I am always fighting
And
Despite everything
Life's thrown my way,
I'm still breathing
It's just quiet...

I'm Me
Hi, I'm Felicity
But I prefer to be called Jasper
My boyfriend says that's a girly name
But I think it suits me.
I'm interested in:
Reading
Writing
Art
Poetry (Duh!)
Sleeping
An d eating enough to feed a horse.
My headaches last a few seconds,
If that.
While my migraines last hours,
Sometimes days.
I love cats, but I love dogs too
If I had to categorize myself,
I'd say I'm an animal person
I can't choose a favourite.
I like to spell things the British way,
Adding extra u's where they aren't...

Love
Love
It's just a concept many of us think about
We think highly of it
We yearn for it
Yet we know we won't be satisfied with it
We think all we need
Is love
But that's not true.
All we need is
Understanding friends,
Loving friends,
And
Caring friends.
We need supportive friends
And family.
We need support.
Yes we need love
But not romantic
We need platonic love
To help us get by.
To help us grow.
To help us live our lives
To the fullest.

Here's to the boy
Where is that little girl
That used to sneak in books
To read
When she finished her school work?
Where is that little girl
Who was so rebellious
That she wanted to start a rebellion
With bibles?
Where is that little girl
That used to eat the sand from outside?
Where is that little girl
That found any way she could
To communicate
With the ones she loved?
Let me tell you
That little girl
Has been replaced
With a little boy
Who has really always been a boy
Who likes to write
Recreationally....

Here's to the man
Here's to the man
That made sure
I got to sleep
Just about
Every night.
Here's to the man
Who trained me
In martial arts.
Here's to the man
Who trained me
In swordsmanship.
Here's to the man
Who's brother is getting married
To my sister.
Here's to the man
Who is blind
But still sees well enough
To drive.
Here's to the man
Who's more of a man
Than I will ever be.
Here's to the man
Who knows who he is.
That made sure
I got to sleep

Try
If you
Do not try
You
Will not succeed.
That much
Is obvious.
I try
My damndest
Every day
And yet
I still fail
At life,
At love,
At having friends;
I fail.
I am nothing spectacular
Yet;
I am still
Me,
Here,
Alive,
Ready to
Kick some ass
If the need
Arises.
Sometimes,
Just trying
Is enough!
Do not try
You
Will not succeed.
That much

I still fail

At love,

Not today
Not today
Satan,
I don't need
To face
My demons.
Not today
God,
I don't need
To be told
The "truth."
Not today
Mom,
I don't need
To be lectured
About everything
For I have enough problems
To deal with
Already.
Not today.
Please.
Just
Leave
Me
Alone
At least
For
Today.

In the Still of Night
Once upon a midnight black
As the world
Was quiet
And all
Was still,
Not a peep
Could be heard
Save for
The even breathing
Of most.
A cry arose
In the still of night
Chilling all who heard it
To the bone.
Something horrible
Has happened!
Something terrible
Indeed!
A life
Has been taken
A life
Has been lost
In the still of night.
No longer is the world quiet
No longer is there peace
No one is sleeping
In the still of night.
As the world
Was quiet
And all
Was still,
Not a peep
Could be heard
Save for
The even breathing
Of most.
A cry arose
In the still of night
Chilling all who heard it
To the bone.
Something horrible
Has happened!
Something terrible
Indeed!
A life
Has been taken
A life
Has been lost
In the still of night.
No longer is the world quiet
No longer is there peace
No one is sleeping

Life
My life
Flashes
In front of my eyes,
The blade
Drops
And I fall
To my knees.
He stands,
Horrified
As blood
Flows
From my veins
To the floor.
I hear my name
But I can't respond;
Or rather,
I don't.
I feel his tears
On my skin.
Warm.
Wet.
Life.
His life
Yearns for mine,
And I respond.
I smile
At him
And I hear him sigh.
He says my name
Again.
I respond
With another
Smile.
He hugs me
Tightly
As if
Trying to hold me...
Flashes
In front of my eyes,
The blade
Drops
And I fall
To my knees.
He stands,
Horrified
As blood
Flows
From my veins
To the floor.
I hear my name
But I can't respond;
Or rather,
I don't.
I feel his tears
On my skin.
Warm.
Wet.
Life.
His life
Yearns for mine,
And I respond.
I smile
At him
And I hear him sigh.
He says my name

Smile.
He hugs me

His eyes
My heart
Skips a beat
When I look
Into his eyes.
His gaze
Locks onto mine
And my body
Freezes.
A heartbeat
Passes,
Then another
And his eyes
Never leave
Mine.
I can't seem
To look away
From his
Piercing gaze.
His eyes
Are beautiful.
I can
Only think
Of that one
Phrase
And nothing more
As I stare
Into
His eyes
Skips a beat
When I look
Into his eyes.
His gaze
Locks onto mine
And my body
Freezes.
A heartbeat
Passes,
Then another
And his eyes
Never leave
Mine.
I can't seem
To look away
From his
Piercing gaze.
His eyes
Are beautiful.
I can
Only think
Of that one
Phrase
And nothing more

Mayby some day
Maybe
Some day
I'll be worth
Something
Maybe
Some day
Someone
Will understand
Maybe
Some day
I won't be
Forgotten
Maybe
Some day
I'll be
Enough
Some day
I'll be worth
Something
Maybe
Some day
Someone
Will understand
Maybe
Some day
I won't be
Forgotten
Maybe
Some day
I'll be
Enough
