She & I: A Poem

A poem about falling in and out of love.

She & I: A Poem

It's getting so dark I can barely see

Maybe that's how it's supposed to be

Sweet little nothings whispered to me

They don't hold any validity

Had me feeling so insecure

The heavy heart is an absent cure

It's become so hollow this part of me

Maybe that's how it's supposed to be


What's today if you've slipped away

The heart of hearts is broken apart

Tomorrows just a shame if you're away

You'd rather see me fallen apart


Woman DrowningChristopher Campbell


Sometimes I wish to cut myself on glass

Maybe then you'll finally pass

In my reach is something wonderful

But I'm afraid to be the fool

Tangled up in blue, what can I do

I believe I can fall in love with you

Easy mistakes are the ones that come true

Maybe you feel the same way too


What's time if you aren't mine

It felt so fake, even from the start

I have you now, but it feels like borrowed time

Cast your burden right from the start


Man DrowningCarlos Domínguez

It's getting so dark this little light of mine

Maybe she snuffed it out, made me blind

Temptation hides between her thighs

And in her eyes a thousand other lies

These violent delights have violent ends

Foolishly I believed we made amends

Reluctantly letting the right one in

Maybe we're not meant to win


What's yesterday, but a day too far away

Each goodbye seems to be the last

Each minute here is another minute away

When can I love you at last?

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. 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.

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. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
