"When writing, cut open a vein, and let the blood spill onto the page."


Time is unpredictable.
One minute it's the hour.
Next, it's the media.
It flies by,
and every second you have something to lose.
The things you gain aren't really gained unless needing.
The things lost are gone so fast you never know if they are wanted or needed.
Time disappears and only leaves memories behind.
Good is seldom.
Bad is, therefore, unpredictable.
A little splash of good is like a dash of sugar,
sweetness to your day,
your life,
your forever.
Hold on to those or it will fall right before your eyes into the black hole of crushed dreams.
It swims in groups before your eyes.
Swirling.
Faster.
Faster it goes.
Then,
It's gone.
Time,
though so unpredictable,
has an outcome of precious things given by the strongest thing in the world.
Love.
It's everyday's light.
Everyday's medicine.
Everyday's cure.
Never let the dark demolish the rare beauty,
but extinguish the common horrid. Treasure time as though it were the last moments of forever.


The author's comments:
When I was in 6th and 7th grade, I went through a period of depression. It was really hard of me, so my way of kind of "escaping" was by writing poetry. This piece was made out of the thought that time really is unpredictable. Then it just unravels all of my other thoughts into one.
I really just hope that teens will think about the important things in their life, and that every moment of their life is precious and needed.
