Poetry On Odyssey: The Perfect Night

"Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud" - 1 Corinthians 13

There are always ups and downs with love but in the end of it all, nothing is greater than the bond between two lovers

Poetry On Odyssey: The Perfect Night

The Perfect night is with You.

It is with blankets and roses of white

A candlelit dinner under the moonlight

Our favorite song on the radio

Driving around with everywhere to go

Romance in the air is all we breathe

Almost like we're Adam and Eve

We fell once but never again

The perfect night is upon us

Between you, me and the God above

I don't have much to give other than my heart

It skips a beat when I see your walk

Your dress, your eyes, your voice when you talk

You shine brighter than the brightest star

Even when you're near you seem far

Ever so close in the blink of an eye

Your eyes open up like a clear sky

Staring in awe of what I see

You shine so brightly such as a sunrise on the sea

The Perfect night is without a trace

You standing there in that lace

Knowing the world is ours

Today and tomorrow and from dusk till dawn

Our lights will shine even when we're gone

You and I have lived so long it's about time I tell

Back when we first met my heart nearly fell

Back to the parts, we do not tell

Back when smiling covered my face

It would soon leave without a trace

Goodbyes and hellos are temporary

Yet apologies are necessary

Love lasts long while under the stars

No fancy clothes or fancy cars

Like that song on the radio was meant to be

Back when we used to be Adam and Eve

Gone but never forgotten is how love tends to be

Here one day and gone the next

Our love will never leave our nest

I would say more but history knows the rest

For you and I were meant to be

From today and tomorrow

Through all eternity

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
