Have you ever felt really scared
And have your blood run cold?
Impossible to do anything, even though you cared
You want to help and be so bold

Wanting to fix all of it.
Feeling like its all your fault.
Flame of pain being relit
Felling the pain like an assault.

Felling so very helpless
Missing him with all your heart.
For him, looking fearless
And loving him a lot.

Afraid it might stop beating
Staying till the very end.
Fighting tears as he is leaving
To the doctors I commend.

Watching you role away
Feeling my heart crack.
Staying up to pray
And wishing you back.

I HAVE been really scared!
My worst nightmare come true!
It happening and I so very unprepared.
Watching the one I love trying to make it through.

See that rose

This is also how love goes

In all it’s precious beauty

Heart brake is like it’s duty

It grows from the ground

It leaves you saddened without a sound

Buds and blooms

All the happiness turns to gloom

And then it dies

It’s all made up of lies

The longer you tend to it however

Telling you it’s yours forever

The longer it lasts

Then becomes something of your past

Even if the love is true

Maybe we have something new

It’s nearly impossible to keep

Maybe we aren’t in to deep

The spark soon fades

Maybe this love we have made

And trust once there

Will last if we really care

Is completely gone

This love is are new dawn

Has it ever lasted, seems like never

We can make it work forever

It seems all wrong

Maybe we will sing a different song

The heart's view

By Jayla
Spaulding High School, Grade 10

She feels invisible to the world
No one around to understand
At night she cries
And all her happiness dies.

She hides everything from her friends
She pretends to be fine
She tries really hard
Bur her arms are still scarred

She is stumbling on the edge
Can’t decided to live or die
She slowly knots the rope
But waits and hopes

She tries to forgive
And hopes they will listen
Most runaway
Only one did stay

You make her life worth living
You show her true love
And she is very thankful
You are never hurtful

She is so in love
And you helped her
In everything you do
She never wants to leave you

Lying on the grass,
With his head in my lap.
My fingers running through his hair
my thoughts cluttered like a map.

I feel safe and so calm
is this true love?
Everything about it is so pure
just like the white of a dove.

There has never been anything better
I want it to last forever.
I’m always so happy
I won’t feel the same way ever.

Many say it’s just young love
I don’t care we will never be apart.
No matter what happens
you will always be in my heart.

It’s dark and lonely, she is running through a field, there is no leaves on the trees, they are all dead. There is no color except the red of blood. The sky is dark and gray, and all the clouds are black. She doesn’t understand, what happened to her colorful world, what happened to all the flowers and hope. Her small world used to be were she could escape to when everything around her was going bad. Now when she closes her eyes all she sees is hate, death, and tears. All she hears is screams, yelling, and pain. Tell me, is it fair for this to be the sight a little children sees when they close their eyes. Even though it’s the world around her, it is the one she sees when she looks out her front door. The world is filled with hate and it hurts her and destroys her. All she has is nightmares, she wishes and wants a place were she can go for safety, but she can’t find one. Yet you don’t do anything, you just let her fall deeper and deeper in to the black hole of depression.

Hidden

By Jayla Brink
Spaulding High School, Grade 10

The hidden parts of my whole life
The sadness and my hidden strife
All the hurt I hold inside
And all the happiness that has died

I may look perfectly fine
Even though I show many signs
But you just don’t see
That it’s not really me

My heart has been locked forever
Will someone help? no, never
My heart holds all my secrets
And all my big regrets

You say you know me
But why won’t you help me?
I am still sinking
And deeply thinking

I wish you could tell
I still hurt like hell
I want you to be there
Please show me you care

The night was dark and cold the little girl sat shivering on a door step. Why did this happen? How could this happen? Such a poor innocent girl who should be laughing and playing is sitting by herself all glum and sad. Her dress is warn, old, and kind of gray. Her feet are bare and bleeding, it looks like she had been walking for miles. Her hair was mangled and wet the brown locks covering her face like a mask. Her deep brown eyes just wishing someone would come and hold her tight. But still she sits there all alone with no one to love her and no one to care for her. All the trees and flowers seem to wither and die in their sadness for the poor lonely girl sitting on the doorstep.

Today I remembered
why I loved you before
But I also remembered
why I hated you so much
but it's hard to let go
because I remember
what you were like
I remember
how u called me beautiful
I remember
how your touch felt
I remember
Your smell and how it made me weak
I remember
you were all I dreamed about
But I also remember how you walked away
How you became
what I wished you weren’t
How you hurt me so badly
Yet I still look past it because
When I see you smile
I remember
That you made me smile like never before
And when I hear you laugh
I remember
That when I was with you that was all I did
But I wish just one time
I could watch you cry
So I could remember
that I cried all night long
And it was all because of you
But yet I still forget

When ever I am with you
Everything seems to be okay
When I am sad you know what to do
You always brighten up my day

I didn’t love you in the beginning
Although I could not see
That you are always forgiving
Of all I can not be

Every night I lie awake
Staring at the starry sky
Scared of all the mistakes I make
I desperately don’t want to say bye

You make the sun in my sky bright
You took away the darkness
Even through the night
You have left me with no sadness

You don’t judge my past
You make my future worth living
I want to make this moment last
My love I won’t stop giving
