Beware


Beware of good people
No matter of their gifts
Their words, sweet like honey
Or your kinship with them

For nothing hurts more than a broken heart,
Than disappointment from the person you thought you could rely on
And nothing hurts more than having to smile when you don’t mean it

Beware of bad people
No matter their unwelcome deeds
Their unpleasant words
Or your disgust for them

For sometimes you deserve it
For sometimes it depends on the perspective
And your perspective can either be your passport or prison

Beware of yourself
No matter your actions
No matter how good willed they are meant to be
And no matter how good you are meant to be

For all villains think they are the hero
All people believe their thoughts are right
And all foreigners think their culture is the right way to live

Beware of all
No matter of their status, 
Their outward appearance
Or your opinion on what’s inside them

For the devil was first an angel,
A villain was often first an hero,
And all can become the thing they hate the most

  • Dear Diary

    Dear Diary,

    I started writing a diary in middle school, 
    an assignment that I saw through. 
    Perfect grades were all I wanted, 
    it was how my sister and I bonded.
  • Finals Week


    The time that only comes twice a year, 
    I wish it didn’t have to happen at all. 
    The most stressful week of the semester is upon us 
    now my teachers insist I stare at textbooks,
