Whitney

Throughout the school day
Classes breeze by
I read at my seat
Already done my work
Teachers unwilling to give me more

I wait with baited breath
For yours to come
The one place
I feel at home
While still in school

Don’t let anyone tell you
You’re not good enugh
We all have dreams
Big dreams
Little dreams
Red dreams
Blue dreams
We strive to fulfill them
Pouring every once of energy we have
Into what we love to do

Heart pounding
Smile widening
Cheeks turing red
Giggles climb up my throat
I stare 
You smile back
I melt
We talk
We laugh
Everyday I seek you out
Eager to see your bright brilliant eyes
Hear your voice

How much longer
Can we hold on?
Cramping down our emotions
We refuse to free
Bottling them up
Refusing to acknowledge them
Watching those we love
Only through a screen
I see them so they must be real

The ocean
Calm 
Gentle
Soothing
Rhythmic waves slide ashore
Sending a light spray upon all nearby
Little kids squeal with joy
We take a mental photo
When we think of the ocean
This is what we see

Excitement stirs up butterflies
Within your stomache
Frustration catches them in nets
Cinching their wings
Pain withers them
Destroying all excitement 
Confusion questions
Why?
What?
Spinning around your brain
