Phoenix

Glow of the screen on my face

my eyes stuck to the screen       

my mom telling me that I need to go outside.    

I hear a pop coming from  the kitchen

my popcorn bag is empty in a split second

the taste of buttery salty popcorn                               

I run to the couch, like my life depended on it     

my sisters and I fighting for the remote like animals  

I  surf with one click of a remote

traveling around the world

A special person

in my life

who takes care of me

like a bear

protecting me from harm

Alert as an eagle

A shield in front of an arrow

striving to slice into my heart

Like a hen shielding her

chicks from the awaiting eagle

waiting to devour me

Thanks mom.

I love you.

 What Am I To You?

What am I to you?

When you read me am I boring?

When you rip my pages It’s like you ripped a piece of my heart,

I’m just a crybaby coward that is sometimes creepy,

Do you know how I feel when you put me on a shelf that’s dusty as the inside of a vacuum,

I know lots of words and I define them to help you know the meaning,

But sometimes you ignore me,

What am I to you a devil, dog, deer, dinosaur, dingo, donkey, duck, dove, dragonfly,

I may be old but I’m helpful,

From research, sometimes enjoyment, and I help you learn new words every day,

I’m a dictionary not anything else in the world.

Me

You threaten me

you call me names

Hey Phillip

why did you hate

the person I tried to be?

I don’t need your negative rate

just let me be me.

When I rebuttal back

you start to cry

people think I’m whole

and question me why.

I was defending myself

it was the last choice

I called you an ugly little elf

who’s “cool” with a Rolls Royce.

To be honest,it’s very low

you need to hurt

you go blow after blow.

You try to convey your point

you don’t and that’s a mighty loss.

For me it’s a huge win

I intend to begin

the great crusade

that shall not fade.

We will fight tonight

By Sean P.

Impatiently waiting,

When will it come faster?

Listening to their music cheers me

Up and gets me motivated.

If I could go to the future

To the day I’ll get to see those

Five idiots I fell in love with,

There music and personalities and

How they speak saves many of their fans.

As they sing like angels they

Give me the chills,

As they sing they would only

See the spotlight that as far as it goes,

Millions of roaring fans

Waiting to see them.

But in their eyes we are just another fan and in our eyes we are just another fan and in our eyes they are our world the

Fine boys we fell in love with.

When the day comes,

The crowd would roar

And so will I,

Can this day come any faster?

The day I see the most amazing talented band

Biggest boy band, called One Direction
