Poetry On Odyssey: Heartbreak Szn
Yuvraj Singh

I cried into you, using my tears as water for your roots.

Only a love like this could produce something so beautiful yet tragic.

I can still feel the tracings of your fingers on my back, so gentle and kind.

You cried into me, using your tears as water for my roots.

Only a love like this could produce such happiness yet pain.

We wanted each other badly but not bad enough.

We cried into each other, using our tears for roots

Only a love like this could produce something once in a lifetime yet it wasn't meant to last a lifetime.

The story of the intimate breakup.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When you left my happiness chased after you. Please return her to me. She's lost.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Come back, I will meet you halfway.

I know this is scary for us both.

How does one prepare for love they were not ready for?

We connect. We connect as deeply or distantly as we allow.

But please, may we maintain a connection, so I can still be held and comforted on days where only you feel like home.

I will establish outside connections, opening the idea of love from all directions including and excluding you all at once.

I am not ready to let you go.

I still believe in this.

I still believe in us.

It wasn't summertime and especially not Fourth of July but boy, we made fireworks fly. Though it's supposed to be cold in Winter, all I remember that year is your warmth. During Spring, we went to Disney. They call it the happiest place on Earth, but my happy place is you. When we finally saw summer, you told me you didn't need me to see the sunshine.

-3 seasons

What a shame boys don't get to play with Barbie's. So, they choose life-sized women instead.

-I am not your toy.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If deception had a face

It would be yours

And if envy had a face

It would be mine

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Anger.

Soul lit on fire.

Fuming.

Sadness.

Tears streaming like river.

Aching.

Destroy.

Use tongue as weaponry.

Killing.

Any hopes of you coming back.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sometimes I wonder if you hear them

My prayers for your happiness

I know they are between God and I

But I wonder if he whispers them into your dreams

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I came searching for answers to questions you hadn't even asked yourself

-do you miss me?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I search for you in places I know you'll never be. I like to think that's God's way of protecting me.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I spend a lot of time sleeping lately.

  • -We are together in my dreams

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The only thing that hurts more than betrayal is the act of forgiveness

-For my peace of mind

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you had asked me if I believed that we'll cross paths again, before this I would have said indefinitely. Now, I say I hope so. My heart will leave a door open for you to creep back into someday.

-goodbye for now

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
