Poetry On Odyssey: Smoke

Please just see how much you mean to me, you are so important to me but I know I mean nothing to you

If only you could see how much I love you. Smoke on the mirror clouded by my deep feelings. Suffocated unable to breathe, I can't even see. Please just see how much you mean to me, you are so important to me but I know I mean nothing to you. I'll continue to look off into the sky. For now, this is goodbye

Smoke

I feel for you. I'm a junkie for you. I crave you in the most innocent ways.

Your touch, your smile, your smart ass mouth, even your Ora. I've never met a drug like you. Mary Jane has nothing on you, although I seem to be drinking more Henny to hide my true pain.

I've searched everywhere for something similar to you and none of them give me the same simplistic high as you. I'm strung out, lost within the moss. Another loss I don't think I'm strong enough to take another.

I changed my ways because I thought that would make you stay. This is all so overwhelming nothing seems to help me. It's been days without you, I need you.

I stay up all night you made my life seem high when in reality it was sometimes so low. As I put you against my lips I can taste what I can't seem to stop craving. My eyes roll back as I get my favorite feeling again.

I need my dose to continue to focus. The lighter reminds me of the intense fire in your eyes that I oh so admire. Without my fix, the side effects begin to kick in.

Sadness, irritability, tears, and feeling of being without anyone. As your venom flows through my veins I begin a trip that I will never forget; you're my syringe.

Does anyone question why I cry? I cry because of the lies I'm constantly fed for the nourishment of my trust issues. These were issued by someone who wouldn't give a fuck if I said I miss you. I cry because no one dares to care about the person they have to share a true connection with.

If it doesn't have a fat ass with mass they don't want it. What about the girls with intelligence and eternal self-worth? We would step out of character if that meant that fame would help their own self-gain.

We fight beautiful Nefertiti's just to sleep at night with some low life kitty. Please allow me to have a moment for these warm tears I cry. I cry because of my deep feeling of pity… my unanswered cries of why.

Confused, a fuse between sadness and questioning. All I want is to be happy again. Again and again, I go through the same cycle.

Like a washer on spin cycle my head, 360. Can't I just do a 180 from this feeling? Continuing to believe maybe one day shit will be alright. Nobody even notices the fake smile I put on, as I take them off like shoes at night I'm left to see the true me.

I laugh and smile in order to file away my real feelings. Moral of the story is I have no glory... I just want to have a genuine smile.

I will walk miles if happiness is at the end of the tunnel. Until then I will continue to wish that maybe one day my shooting star will fall.

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

day·dream (ˈdāˌdrēm/): a series of pleasant thoughts that distract one's attention from the present.

Daydreams, the savior of our life in class. Every type of student in the classroom does it at least once, but most cases it is an everyday event, especially in that boring class -- you know the one. But what are we thinking while we are daydreaming?

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.
