My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return. by Maya Angelou<br /> <br /> Sometimes it&#039;s harder to let go of something so important but easier to get hurt from it.


When I don't have anywhere to go,

when I have a lonely home.

To look and see your life packed up.

To recognize you must leave.

I feel my life and world being rippedd apart,

I feel all the sad faces that don't want me to leave.

Just as I thought that my life picked up, it collapse.

Just as I thought that I would be with my friends forever,

it is gone.

As I picked up the last boxes and loaded them,

I looked back and saw emptiness.

As I walked out and said my last goodbyes,

I started to cry.

I get into my car and wave goodbye,

I look back and see my life I used to live.

If you haven't already found out,

I got evicted.

Evicted, was another assignment that my English teacher gave to my class and I and it was only a line from a movie. But for me, it was a way to express myself by writing this poem. Not only that but lately I have been looking back and missed how I was. Again I would like to do is thank my 9th grade English teacher, Ms. Dillon, that without her assigning this line from a movie to become a poem, I wouldn't have written this. This poem inspired me so much and shows how i feel and how i express myself.
