"I Am" Poem 2013

I am as lazy as a hibernating bear, sleeping during the coldest winter.

I wonder if there is such thing as love, If the expectations meet the feelings of the word.

I hear terriblewords spoken amongst each other, while kind and thoughtful words are kept quiet from all who need it.

I see the reflection from the moon smiling at me as itsglimmering light peaks through my window each dark night.

I want to wake up one brightmorning and have my parents back in my life, withsoberthoughts.

I am as lazy as a hibernating bear, sleeping during the coldestwinter.

I pretend I am an unopinionatedactress, simply playing my role in life without question and doing as I'm told.

I feel emotionally exhausted like a lost child wandering the world but not knowing their final destination.

I touch my little sister's innocent hand and feel unconditional love from the purest heart there is.

I worry I'll wake up to a phone call from the hospital saying my mom has overdosed.

I cry when I think of the dreadful night that was April 4, 2013, the day my grandma went to heaven and left us.

I am as lazy as a hibernating bear, sleeping during the coldest winter.

I understand that I can't change my shameful past but I can always mold my unexpectedfuture.

I say life is like a crystal clearriver, it just keeps flowing through obstacles thrown into it.

I dream through all the revengefulchaos of this generation, that people will count their blessings each and every single day.

I try to make my uncle proud even though I've made some poor decisions, I learned from them and improved myself.

I hope the brightand mysticalstars in the sky keep shining down at everyone and the earth keeps it's natural beauty of the green grass, tall trees, and expressiveanimals.

I am as lazy as a hibernating bear, sleeping during the coldest winter.

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.
