We don't realize how important trust is until its all that we have left!

Poetry On Odyssey: Trust

How could you do this to me?

I allowed you to build me up

And you broke it within seconds

Do you know how many people I allow?

The answer is very few

I thought you would be there after all we have gone through

I was completely myself around you showing my vulnerableness

My outside appearance had been washed away to show you the truth

Our concrete friendship is now cracked

I hope you know that I will never be the same as you


Don't get me wrong, I don't always bring you pain

Somedays I am all you rely on

I make you feel remarkable knowing that you have seen this other side of me

I know that it takes a long time to build me

but all your troubles will be worth it when you have me

I'll be there for you when you are in trouble or when you need someone to talk to


Having me brings you the guarantee of always having someone

Many people say I can never be achieved, but I'm not appalling

I aid you in showing your true emotions

I can be broken as easily as ripping a piece of paper unless you care for me

Everyone has it in their heart to believe in but few will

The ones who do are in for a rollercoaster

If something isn't going well, don't think I'm a nefarious villain

Trust me, I'm not usually my fault

If you blame all your pain on me, just know that I might not be the only cause

I am a result of your relationship

You have caused me to bring you joyous memories or hurt ones


Always remember that life without me would be torture

I am always there with you even when you don't want me.

I assist in keeping ruinous ideas away from you

If you care for me, I'll never betray you

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
