Feeling Lost
Design Spartan

Wandering lost depths in a field of bruised yellows and blacks,

Chasing bees instead of running from them,

In an upside down topsy turvy world.


We are the weak under a thumb,

Scraping the dirt behind the nail.


Can’t remember feeling lost when I was found.

In the seas of being perky wall flowers,

Spent a whole life driven by words on the wall.


Seeping through the cracks,

Pushing me beneath the ground.


Soiling me up until I can no longer breathe.

Through hands, smothering soft whispers,

And ghosts haunting from a traumatic past.


Whirling through an endless timeline,

With broken giving trees and bland Dr. Seuss’


Choking on smog created by Big Brother.

From an orphanage of a mother,

Who lost her baby in a leap year.


Challenging the views of traveling birds,

And sneaky rabbits who play on playing tricks.


Over and under.

Under and over,

Comes the hook of a skeleton man.


Who grabs the only known thing,

This world has come to learn.


The love that bears in the nipples of Mother Nature’s flesh,

The whispers that exist between the storms and the grasses,

The hands grasped by a mother to a daughter.


He who needs to let go, forgive and accept.

She who needs to be told, grab her hand and pull.


This world craves the warmth from our hearts,

The warmth that has soon masked in the melting of our planet.

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.
