Forced from home

People are being forced from their homes, their being killed and raped. It’s specifically against one specific race. It’s not just anyone it’s specific, Dar Fur is a poor place. Ev eryone there is getting their stuff taken, family killed, women raped, children killed. The people are fleeing to the neighboring countries like Chad, waiting to be sent to refugee camps. Their not exactly trying to kill everyone, their trying to get rid of the Muslims, to move away. Someone’s trying to take action and do something about this. People are speaking out about this. It effects us because were letting almost another Holocaust happen. Were not doing anything, after we said that we wouldn’t let something like this happen again. We are not helping them. We could help them, send them supplies. Give these people homes, places to go. We could go in and attack these people that are killing these people from Dar Fur. We could help the UN, defeat these problems.

Time

Time
We live in a world of tome. Every second the time is changing and we are living. Seasons change at night it becomes dark when we know we have to sleep .In the morning we feel the bright light from the sun. We know that it is time to get up and begin the day again.

Foreigners

People are trying to get rid of the foreigners out and their people to have their jobs back, things like that. Like the Germans made the Jews move out of their homes, they would burn them down, anything to get them out. We study the Holocaust so that it won’t happen again. We mostly study history so that it dose not repeat itself, especially the bad things. We can’t change the past, we can at least try to create a good future. People do things like this, because they blame others for their social mistakes. The forigners for them not having enough housing or jobs. Just like the Germans did with the Jews, they blamed the Jews for the depression and the war.

Feeling Lonely

“Feeling Lonely”

I’m feeling lonely
With out you by my side
You were the best thing that happened to me
Why did you go

Help me out baby
The only thing that I want is you
But you hate me
At least you say you do

Help me with all my thoughts about you
Don’t push me away
All it does is want you more
I no now that I cant have you

I’m feeling lonely
Without you by me
Why did you have to go
I thought it would be easy

Now I have to let you go some how
That will never happen
So I will let you go
Only for a moment in time

I might be lonely
I might be sad
But goodbye the love of my life
We had our really good times

I loved you
And I still do

Quote

The quote is about loosing what means the most inside. The feeling that you feel inside is worse than death itself. Death is not the worst thing that can happen, is what its saying. What you loose inside is a greater loss. Well your organs could fail on you. Your appendix could swell and explode. If you smoke you could get lung cancer, or gum cancer. Your heart could “ die’ from all and any pain and emotion that you have been through. I have lost many family members. One committed suicide, one of my other friends also committed suicide. I’ve lost friendships and lovers.

Be Aware

BE AWARE!!!

To judge someone for being a certain race is horrible. The people in Zimbabwe are angry at the foreigners coming into their country and taking their work. Thousands of people are now being kicked out and removed from the country. We need to study past event such as the Holocaust to know the signs of things like that happening again. History can NOT repeat its self. And that’s up to us to make that happen. The US needs to be aware of other stories of countries other than our own, and help out as much as we can. It’s ethnicities fighting. Being different in ANY sort of way can cause events like this to start happening. Be aware of others than yourself.

War Stories

My dad would talk about his war stories also lots events and who life was over there. Well in my family I’m vary close to all of them, but the one I look up to and am the closest to is by brother Reggie. Even if he is ten years older that me or if I’m taller than him. I love him.

Get Along With

Who I get along the best with


The person that I get along with the most is my cousin Brandon. Me and him are very close. Even though he’s ten years old he understands me with all of my problems. Which is very good compared to a lot of my family. Somebody else that I really get along with is my cousin Teresa. She’s 29 and all the freaking guys want her. She’s so pretty I am jealous of her. But any way… my cousins are very important to me, They help me follow all of my dreams. That’s why I get along with those two so well.

My cousin Brandon knows how to drive all because of me. I’ve taught him since he was six years old and I’ve tried to teach him how to follow his dreams. He’s having a very hard time at it because of his feelings and his type of dreams he’s been having.

What is

What Is Inside of You?
Rachel

What lives inside of you is what keeps you alive. Ask yourself: What do you live for? What do you wake up each day for? Your morals, faith, trust, your family, friends, etc. If anything inside of you that means the world to you is either broken, lost, or died. It’s a part of you that is broken, lost, or died. I’ve suffered from the loss of my family. Not my family as the people they are themselves, but the love that they should’ve given me. Realize what you have, don’t take it for granted.

Well master of your fate means you choose how things work out for you captain of your soul means you control your life so if you smoke you destroy your soul /ship

Human

Human

To be human means you have the opportunity to live life to the fullest. You have many options to choose from every single day. If you are inhuman, it means to have no feelings, to not care about anything you do, or to be an animal. It would be difficult to be a human just to live each day and face the troubles and drama of life.

To Be Human

What does it mean to be human?
Humans and animals are in different parts of the food chain for a specific reason. But that particular question has many answers and many opinions, some of which others might not agree with but then again others will be completely enthusiastic about their answers. My answer for this particular question is life sucks no matter what you do because no matter how much you try to place man in to categories we will never belong to any specific category because we are our own category. Now some might say that man is the top of the food chain but others might say that man is a disgusting infestation of beasts. Personally I think we are just more determined to live then other mammals/animals because we have this need to survive. Now survival is the #1 most important thing to any living organism and most people underestimate mans need for survival. Survival is everything but the point is what we are willing to sacrifice to survive. In the end it all boils down to Survival of the Fittest.

When Times are Hard

When times get hard, you need to change what you can to get as far as you can go.
Everything that happens to me is almost horrible, I lost my really good friend because of his
Stupid girlfriend. What to do I couldn’t tell you the truth. It hurts me and I want to runaway because of all the pain I am going through.
People don’t understand how others feel against there own will. Wouldn’t you feel all left out because of your friends girlfriend. Taking your best friend away. It only makes your self esteem go way down under.

Human

To be human, to me, means to be imperfect, progressive, active, thoughtful, and to be wondrous. I believe we as humans think, focus, progress, and learn sometimes easily, and sometimes very hard. To this day I have thought how we have no limits in life; our limits are only the limits we make. I watch daily how other human beings besides me, and always wonder if they are thinking the same way I am. Now I know that we all have the same or close to the same foundation of understanding, but we think differently based on experiences and influences in life. To love, to cry, to feel, to see, to communicate verbally, to touch, to sing, are all part of being human. We also as human have basic needs which are eating, sleeping, shelter, clothes, communicating, and exercising.

Inhuman to my basic understanding is the total opposite. Which is sort of like the term “robotic motions”, because robots are commanded, and do things because they have to. Also robots don’t feel or love, they don’t cry. They see but they don’t see, they touch, but they don’t feel. They are the Black widows that live lonely lives hidden beneath their webs.

Being human is very difficult because we know that we are good but there is still evil in us. Being human is hard because the emotions that hence forth in the dropdowns of our lives bring stress, bring hatred, but at the end it brings progression. Due to these facts we are lucky to be humans.

I think that it should be legal, because then it would stop kids from loitering outside stores and gas stations. The teenagers wouldn’t appreciate them very much, but then the storeowners could keep kids from loitering. I don’t really think that it’s violating our rights. It would get annoying but it would help the owners of the store. The teenagers wouldn’t like it very much yet it would be helpful for store owners. It could effect hearing in the teenagers. Make it so that our hearing doesn’t work as good. Kid’s would rebel, might ruin them.

The Wind Cried

“And the wind cried, Mary”

o Why is Hendrix depressed?
o What is he depressed about?
o Why is the wind screaming?
o What dose the wind need to remember?
o Why dose the wind blow names?
o Why dose the wind cry for ‘Mary’?
o Who is Mary?
o What dose Mary mean to Hendrix?
o Why are the traffic lights blue?
o Why is the life lived dead?
o Why will this be the last?

I Maybe

I Maybe…
I maybe white, I maybe blonde
But my clothes are tight, and my hair is long
Don’t think I’m dumb, cause I look like Barbie,
I’m no wannabe, so don’t hate on me!
Let’s go PARTY!

The Mind

The mind is smooth-no motion-
Contented as the aye
Upon the forehead of a bust-
That knows-it cannot see.
‘’oscar’’

Today has been Something

Today has been something
Something that’s been missing
He left me forever
Why I don’t understand why

Help me god
Tell me why he left me this way
He was everything, my world
Can’t he see what he did

So I listen to some rap and heavy metal
Help… there’s nothing I can do any more
You left me out cold
Why I do not know

I can’t get him out of my mind
He was something different
At least I thought he was
But he saw right through me

God needs to help me with this
Because nobody else can
He was something new
Then ended up being old

Together

Together As One
Rachel

In the dark of night,
The stars shone bright
And sang their happy song.

The moon spoke to the stars;
Of their journey’s a far
All of them absorbed for so long.

The sky took them in,
As it’s own kin
It sang them all to sleep;
Together as one they were to stay
Forever in its’ keep.

Snow

SNOW
As the snow falls greyly upon the ground,
it screams at the thought of killing trees.
It’s tired and low,
blowing kisses to the flowers hiding underneath.
Yet now it’s cold,
they feel dark and blue.
It bellows with the wind and,
cries in pain.

Would you rather be dumped

“Would you rather be dumped, or would you prefer to dump somebody else?”

I would rather be dumped so that I would have something to bitch about while writing depressing poetry in a cold, candle lit room while crying and asking “why?” to no particular question while telling myself “I tried”.
Now, hoping you caught my sarcasm, I will give you a response the question on whether I would like to be dumped over dumping someone else. Well, I personally would rather dump somebody else to avoid the bawling and depressing poetry, but I would probably feel bad because I wouldn’t want somebody else to have to bawl their eyes for a month straight and write a series of depressing poems. Dating is such a pain in the ass. Here’s an idea! Lets just be friends.
