What we achieve inwardly will change outer reality. -Plutarch


Take this heart of gold
And turn it back to lead
Drown out all the words
Of love you've ever said

Steal away the purity
Make it revert to black
I know I gave you love
But I don't want any back

Hate me like you should,
Do not miss me at all.
I don't need you there
To watch me as I fall.

This is a wonderful poem. I read through some comments and I just want to say, no matter how hard things get, I'm sure you can overcome them. Just from the sound of your poetry, I can tell you are a strong person. I don't know you, but I just wanted to tell you that. Don't ever let anyone bring you down, and stay strong.

I get words mixed up instead of grammar. It's the opposite problem.

That's awesome. I don't know much french yet but I can't wait to learn. There are lots of people in my health class that are learning spanish so I have a lot of people trying to test me and see if I can write and speak it fleuntly. I can speak it well but my problem is grammar I never learned grammar. I could write it out right but I don't speak proper spanish. My mom told me I speak street spanish. Ha! :)

Well, for starters, we'd both be trilingual XD Also, I'd probably say something like, "Hey, you're the girl from TI who I talked to about almosy anything and everything for hours" :)

I want to have a job but once I meet the right person then I'll want to raise a family be a stay at home mom. I want to travel and meet new people. Maybe leave with my grandparents in Mexico for a while. Learn different languages. I'm going to learn french this year. I am bilengual but I want to be at least trilengual. :)

Go to college, get a nice job, find lasting love, and die with no regrets.

Some people are just not compatible with their family. Your a senior in high school I'm sure you have plans for college so  you can change your outcome of your life. Like me yes I get along with my family but it's because I don't feel that I can tell them everything. I plan on moving to New York or California. My sister wants to come with but I'm not sure if I want to have my sister with me. Because I don't want my family to feel likeI'm influencing her to do the things I want. I want to be a therapist, a waitress,or a writer. Or even all three. I want to help others, or feed others even if it's not a well paid job, or inspire others with life experiences and my imagination. That's not what my parents want. They don't want be to go to college or have a low paid job even if it's feed others, and my parents support my writing but never appreciate what I've written. I remember the first time my mom got my backpack and read all my poems I wrote for this guy that I was in love with. She laughed and asked me if I was serious about loving him. It's a terrible feeling. But I'm sorry that you  to deal with that at home. Zhugs ZechZ
