Writing poetry can be a way to help express yourself, never be afraid to put what you are feeling on paper.

Poems For All

Throughout my life I have used writing poems as a way to help me through different situtations. I have decided to share some of them with you. I hope that you can relate one or two or just enjoy reading them for the fun of it. Warning: Some of them contain quite cheesy content.

Trust In Him

Fury and anger can cause a great scene.

What happened to you was terribly mean.

You fell hard in love for a fool or two.

So you closed off your heart,

what else could you do?

They expect you to heal without any time.

It’s not that easy,

it’s not worth the climb.

To get out of that pit,

takes a clean helping hand.

God has given you one,

He has a plan.

Forgiveness is key in wanting to heal.

It brings closure and peace and no sketchy deal.

You fought your way out.

To get back on the tracks.

This time you won’t fail,

‘cause God’s got your back.


The Thoughts Chase

Running. Sprinting. Trying to hide.

You think you’ve lost them,

in just enough time.

Twisting. Spinning. Hoping to win.

The battle you’ve had,

has been deep within.

Dwindling. Slowing. Needing to survive.

You’re thoughts have caught you,

was the decision right this time?

Waiting. Yearning. Wanting to know.

Did you dispose of the evil?

Did you know where to go?

Answering. Calming. Surprisingly good.

The beautiful mind,

is misunderstood.


When Life Knocks

Pull open the door and don’t let it go.

You have miles ahead, it’s not a short road.

A journey is one that takes risks every day.

Trust in yourself and let nothing in the way.

Opportunities come once and awhile.

Give it the hope to one day make you smile.

When your task is so big, you’re afraid you might fall.

Give strength to your God and stand up tall.

The road eventually ends and you’ll never know when.

Keep pushing yourself so you’re proud at the end.


Senses

Open your eyes.

Sit back and find a new perspective.

Everything is moving so quickly,

yet you don’t hear a sound.

Open your ears.

Sit back and examine the present.

Everything is changing around you,

yet you don’t feel a thing.

Open your hands.

Sit back and imagine the future.

Everything will soon be different,

yet you can’t taste a victory.

Open your mouth.

Sit back and savor the flavors.

Everything is coming to senses,

yet you can’t smell the roses.

Open your nose.

Sit back and admire the beauty.

Everything is in color and alive,

yet you can’t see a thing.


Confusion

Confusion and doubt is common among me.

I get myself worked up with the what it could be.

If I stay silent, our friendship will always remain.

But it will tear gently at my heart and for sure ache my brain.

Telling you will not be easy, that I have no doubt.

The moment that you hear the truth, I hope you don’t run out.

I need you in my life because you push me to be better each day.

I really hope these feelings just don’t get in the way.

If it was something I could control, I’d flip the switch to off.

Then I wouldn’t have the pain of the feeling I’m not enough.

I hope to one day speak to you and find the true romance.

Did you ever care, did I really have a chance?


Follow Him

Be free of mind and spirit. Let God be in control.

He will show you the way,

to achieve your final goal.

Fighting what He tells you, just takes more time away.

Listen closely to each word,

and don’t forget to pray.

Thank God for all His blessings. The Earth, the trees, the sky.

Thank God for all He’s given you.

The things that keep you alive.

For without Him, what would you be? Nothing to this world.

No joy, no peace, no hope to dream.

A simple boy or girl.

Choose His light to follow, and be confident in who you are.

God has made you perfect.

So you can shine just like a star.


If you stuck with me through those poems to the end, thank you, you're incredible!

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.
