aDRYsory

This totally reminds me of some shit I was working on in art therapy, I love weird drawings like this. Mine was along the same lines but there was a flower growing from my head, my neck was a tree and my hair was the tree in full bloom. I have to take a picture of it and put it up here. I've been doing a lot of sketching, usually just doodles but it's also a great way to express myself when I have something bugging me or just a lot on my mind. I'm really working on stepping it up big time in school, but in order for me to actually follow through I have to really stay focused and give it my all. Wish me luck.

Salem's Lot

So today in Lit class we were given out our new assigned books to read, which this year I've always enjoyed reading just about every book, for the first time! We just started reading Salem's Lot by Stephen King- who mind you is amazing at writing his horror novels. I am very excited to get deeper into this piece, we're at page 42 so far and I'm already very caught in it. Good books always get me excited :). I advice others to pick this book up if they ever get the chance... well maybe I should be waiting to put that out there for once I'm done with the book. I often get ahead of myself- oops baha.

Beautifully Broken

Here's a short poem that I wrote while I was in the hospital....




The rain stops and the snow begins to fall,
I look through the window and suddenly I see it all.
Do I continue to look down and frown at the ground?
It's as if I forgot how to stand tall.

I remember who I was before but it's as if no one else can see.
Everyone else has forgotten but all I want to be is me.
I try to stay strong but the memories never leave,
What a tangled web we weave that first time we deceive.
I have to stay strong and be myself no matter what...
and I'm sorry but if you're tryna hate I just don't give a fuck.

Trust is essential but I don't see it anymore.
It's time I closed my eyes and opened up that door.
I have to forget the hateful words around me and follow my heart.
'Cause when you're caught up in others problems sometimes your heart gets torn apart.




Real Talk!
