My dear silly girl, what are you hiding behind your eyes?

Poetry On Odyssey: Silly Girl

My dear silly girl,

What are you hiding behind your eyes?

Is it how you sit alone and try not to cry?

Is it those thoughts pounding in your head of how someday you hope to be wed?

Dearest silly friend,

Will you ever say, why you sit there and stare because you can't look away?

You can't look away from the girls with big hair and their silly ol' friends,

Or the boys with tan skin whose very words make you want to sin.

Please, silly friend,

Do tell me one thing...

Tell me what makes you cry and fight instead of smile and dream?

Don't you dream, my silly girl, of flying with birds in a place where words no longer hurt?

Come and share silly friend,

Share your story with me.

The story of a girl who no longer dreams.

My silly girl, my angel in the sky.

My lovely little bird, no longer does she fly.

Dear silly bird,

Come back to me.

Come be with your friends in a land of dreams.

Turn your light on and flap your wings.

Don't let others crush your dreams.

Please, my dearest friend,

Let me tell you one thing. There are many who will try to dash your dreams.

Some people are hateful and some people don't care.

Sometimes our own voices will cause us the most fear.

Don't stop dreaming or trying to fly.

No matter how hard it gets

You should always, have to try.

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.
