  Falling

  

  By Pearl, Carson City, MI

  I’m falling for you, and that terrifies me too. I want to stay strong, but want to feel loved too. It’s all just one big battle in my head. So don't give up because I'm slowly giving in....

  Curiosity

  

  By Pearl, Carson City, MI

  There is always going to be a point in one’s life where curiosity will swathe its way into the mind. When questions nip into the mentality of every though.

  By Pearl, Carson City, MI

  You tell me to chase my dreams, But you won’t let me sleep. You tell me you will always support every choice I make, Yet you don't let me chose. You tell me you will always be here with me were ever I go, Yet you won't let me leave. So many yets I'm sick of. Because yet means no. And ...
