Really, gossiping takes us nowhere so here's a poem for it...

We often find ourselves talking about other people

Whenever they do something good, but mostly something bad

But not once have we stopped to think whose feeling we’re hurting

Or who we’re making feel sad

We all have sins and things we do hidden away in the dark

Not one of us is perfect we all have our flaws

But who are we to judge others

When we all have come short

We fail to realize that none of us is God here on earth

Then why judge you’re neighbor

When you yourself are doing things

That you know are wrong

Sins aren’t measured in size, there’s no large or small

A sin is already a sin whether it be big or small

A thought of murder is no different from the act

And your little white lies are not far from that.

If God himself didn’t judge that woman caught in adultery

Then really who are we to be judging anybody

If these words make no sense to you…judge me

He who is without sin may cast the first stone, but before examine yourself and realize you’re not far from everybody

Dreams do come true

My life wasn't always a fairy tale

There were times it was on an uneven scale

I used to feel so depressed and alone

and spent most of my days locked at home

From my entire past nothing was gained 

I started off each day with pain

It felt like inside my head was a big war

I never imagined I'd get this far

But then you came my way

with all your craziness you brightened my day

you changed me from lonely and blue

now I'm a new person all thanks to you

You always have the nicest words to share

And always there to show how much you love and care

I must say my dream really did come true 

Cause i never thought i'd meet any one like you

TITLE: NO FEELINGS

Dark is my spirit

Doubtless, bold; FEARLESS

Of little words I became

Hurt is now my favorite game

Don’t get tangled and no one gets hurt

Since believing in destiny is like waiting for rain in a desert

Even if you think you found it, don’t believe it’s true

It’s hilarious, but guys are good actors too

Call me a whatever I don’t care

Being selfish is perfect with no emotions to share

New beginnings with no feelings

Please them for a while, then it’s over with no meaning

I NEED A TITLE FOR THIS POEM

Waiting for the day you realize

How much it hurts me to see you cry

Hoping for a chance to fully explain

Why I tried to get you out of this miserable game

You’re hurt, I understand

I’m just not the right person to fit your demands

Maybe when all the anger comes to a halt

It’ll come clear how neither of us was at fault

I did what I had to do

I had no other choice, I did it to protect you

It’ll all be okay though, no need to worry

When this all blows over I hope you know I’m truly sorry

Can’t get over you

It’s been a year since you went away

And I finally saw you again yesterday

Everything about you has changed

And talking to you feels so strange

Thought I was finally over you

But seeing you again brings back feelings anew

I know we’ve both moved on

How can loving you feel so right, but yet so wrong

I guess this love for you will last forever

Even though I know we can’t be together

Every moment I’m with him I think of you

But I can’t help it, what must I do?

I can’t seem to leave you in the past

Because I honestly thought we would have last

But now I have to leave you behind for sure

And come to realize we are no more

Finally there

Years have passed

Dreams were trashed

Faith has died

Hurt was intensified

Love was lost

Feelings were crossed

All was wrong

Pain had just gotten strong

Then it happened

A dove came tapping

On a stone wall built up high

Still the doors flung open wide

A rose in a garden of thorns

One that gave reasons to not mourn

Gently picked up the pieces of glass

And somehow turned it to something first class

Love, hope, dreams…Faith was restored

All the wrongs turned into rights once more

Confidence was built, no need to be scared

Looking back I’ve realized I was finally there

-By Racheal Balkissoon

I’m sorry I gave you hopes that this’ll all work

But you keep pushing me down and I’m getting tired of brushing off the dirt

I’ve tried everything to make you see

That this all I’ve ever wanted and this is how I wanted it to be

I know the consequences and was ready to face them

But no matter how hard I tried convincing you, you made me feel dumb

You have no idea how much I loved you and still do

You’re all I ever think about, only you

I know eventually things would have worked out differently

I had hopes that we wouldn’t have to face stormy weather everyday

I saw where you were coming from, I tried placing myself in your shoe

Yes you do have a point, but I have one too

Imagining a life without you, is a life gone to waste

I knew that we would have achieved many things by God’s grace

Maybe you were right, maybe this isn’t meant to be

That’s why you keep pushing me off and honestly I’m tired of trying to make you see reasons, I’m tired of all your anger and agony.

Life doesn't go our way

Life doesn’t exactly go our way

We just hope and pray for things to get better each day

Nothing ever turns out the way we plan

Sometimes it feels like our dreams are blown away by one big fan

Life doesn’t always go our way

We don’t always get that much luck everyday

The world we live in today is not easy

The things we have to go through are not very pleasing

Life just get worst each passing day

Even though we try to make it better in each possible way

People often say reach for the stars

But in our world, just touching the ceiling is way too far.

Perfect when you’re here

This long distance thing isn’t working out

My head’s starting to fill with so much doubt

How did we ever end up like this?

It’s like we’re pounding on each other faces with our bare fists.

I know that when you’re with me

Everything seems perfect, like that’s the way it should be

And I know that this doesn’t seem fair

But the road ahead of us really isn’t clear

We can never be the same people we were

Even though we’ve made it this far

Right now I’m losing so much hope

It’s like our relationship is hanging by a thread, not a rope

Now that you’re away

It’s like the memories of us are fading away day by day

This would have worked out if you were near

Because everything’s perfect when you’re here
