Poetry On Narrative: Sad

I'm turning my sadness into something much more powerful.

Poetry On Narrative: Sad

Sad

I thrive in my depression

As empty as I feel.

The tears help me

Create my space

Filling pages with

Nothing but fears.

Writing and typing

Till I can no longer hear.

And yet,

all my friends

always ask why

my playlist

is all sad songs.

I'll go on to tell them

it adds to my writing.

They'll go on to call me

mad but I've realized

they just don't understand/

when I took my stand

my therapist made me feel

grand for pouring my feelings

on a paper rather then letting

blood spill those days brought

me nothing but chills.

my psychiatrist

had me on sleeping pills just so

things wouldn't go bad.

my time with my medication

everyone seemed judgemental.

making it seem that my episodes

were accidental I told them no

my mind just refused to be gentle.

my parents thought I was just being

temperamental and yet in the middle of

all of this i still felt special knowing

my voice would tremble after this and yet

once i felt leveled I would thrive making this

experience fundamental.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Sorority Girls

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
