A poem about healing through alternate realities

Life is difficult, and how we transition in our lives is going to be completely different from the next, and that is where this poem comes from. It comes from a rich inner world that lays inside my mind, in an alternate reality, where I can find some sense, and ultimately reach peace, and find myself completely.



Dressed from head to toe in my favorite attire,

a color of beige and other neutrals,

cling to my body,

as I walk down these clear halls with millions of doors.

With each door I pass a sound emerges,

a sound of different places that attempt to lure me,

that wish for me to enter that world instead of the others,

and while I wish to go to each one,

in my heart of hearts,

I know it is not where I need to be.


Down the hall,

closer to the staircase that leads to the museum,

there is a door that is designed with the galaxy in mind,

and it is there where I am needed during this time,

and I embrace it warmly.

Opening the door

I find myself entering without any sign of hesitation,

as I leave the clear hallway with millions of doors behind,

only to be greeted by meteorite made lake,

with the rest of the world swirling around slowly,

dancing to the rhythm of of the atmospheric melody.


Just one step and I find myself entering the lake,

no sign of hesitation,

and no sign of fear,

I gracefully let the warm water of the lake take over,

and envelope me in its warm embrace.

As I float in the lake,

surrounded by a cave-like walls,

the planets continue to dance,

continue to finding their pace,

until they find the alignment that is right for me to see.

And it is here where I am healing,

in a meteorite lake,

surrounded by the dazingly planets,

in the deep depths of my soul and mind.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
