When the sun goes down it all comes together.

Poetry On Odyssey: Sunset Collection

I wonder if I can keep the sun

make it mine forever

radiance birthing from my heart

a pocket of youth

in bloom.


The clouds are citadel

safe haven welcomed home

i'm staying here forever

a hope strong enough

to birth babies.


Sipped the wrong drink

bathroom visits

bile in the sink.


We have cotton candy skies here

i'm talking pinks and blues

fluffy figures of sweetness

a sugar high

you make me want to get sugar high

we are young and beautiful

free spirits

ignited in laughter.


This where the sun meets with angelic clouds

where rays meet at the gulf

to go home and set the dinner table

for all the animals

a fireball of faith

are we really alone?


I think my thoughts are lost

file them in a cabinet

for keep saving

when things like this happen

so you know

you can't forget

it is all right here

in between the sun and moon.


He is blind

but the love is not

He is glossy eyes

i get lost in

ill drive everywhere

allow us to go one a journey

with a destination unknown

ill let you drive

turn left

stop

turn right

we are going to be just fine.


We are in the garden of light

there is no forbidden fruit here

the universe wanted this

it was planted years ago

separated by oceans

all to blossom in the same garden

one day.


Angry is me

she/her/hers

yelling

pulling patches

of curls that i was blessed with

why am i destroying my bessinsg

angry is more than an emotion

it is an action

i grew my nails out so i could carve

the pain into my skin

my scrapes glisten

like my glitter poetry pens

its not a sin

i wish i had that bottle of gin.


I used to be afraid of loosing myself

my eyes orbited another planet

but one morning i woke up

and i did not see the color red in my fists

i took the space shuttle to class

and as we turned the bend of destiny

i realized i have always been

exactly where i need to be

so i'm putting on my cape

because i'm my own damn heroine

i'm breathing for myself today

for myself everyday

living for me

the only time i will loose myself again

is in my writing

my hormones pushing out all

of the emotions for me to feel

and battle on my own

i'm finding my soul

and let me tell you

she is oh so bold.

learning different languages
a2zli

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.

I am without a doubt one of those people who refuses to start decorating for Christmas or listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, Thanksgiving has become an underrated holiday over the years. You barely see any Thanksgiving decorations in stores; it's like they skip right from Halloween to Christmas.

Some universities only get two or three days off for Thanksgiving break. Or, if your university is like mine, you get the whole week off go go home. A whole week off is a long time. I'm not complaining, because I'd rather have a whole week off than three days, but there is a lot of down time. Here are some ideas as to what you can do to get the most out of your Thanksgiving break.
