Assignment #3

Here are two of my favorite poems.. I don't like second guessing my poems so sorry if they are crappy or wierd or something...


This one doesn't have a title...


I want to dominate you
I want my edges to scar you
I want you to be smooth so I can fly away
I want your wind in my face making my eyes tear
I want to bend down and feel your snow in my hands
I want to balance on you
I want to trust you to catch me when I fall
I want you to show me what's beyond your point



This also does not have a title


How could we be apart for so long?
Let's never part again
I don't think I could bare it
I loved the letters
It made me feel that you were beside me
They gave me hope
Your kiss relieved my worries
I just want to stay in your arms forever
We will never let go
And live our future
How could we be apart for this long?
Let's never let go of eachother
Let's never let go

Assignment #2

The piece of writing that really means alot is a poem that my mom wrote when she was in highschool. In my last relationship in 8th grade I related to it alot and actually just yesterday I re read it and I could relate all my problems that I've been having to it, which was amazing because I really needed that.

I am nobody
but I need somebody
to help me
care
drifting
someplace
where?

Silently drowning in
a sea of hidden
mirth and apathy
why?

Trying to reach out
so alone
never quite enough
waiting, waiting
for the end.
when?


Select one of the prompts below:


1. What's a good way to release all your stress? Does it work?


2. Is there something in your life that you can always relate to? How did you find it?




THANKS GUYS!!!

First Assignment

HI! I'm Jamie! I'm 17 years old and soon turning 18 on October 5th. My family consists of my mom, my dad and my older brother, oh and myself. I used to be a huge punk rocker and so I still love skateboarding, even though I don't do the action anymore, but I love watching it. I also LOVE snowboarding. I didn't get to do much last year but I'm planning on every weekend this Winter. I'm still very much into classic and hard rock. I have taken french for 12 years but just last semester I switched to spanish because french writing got too hard. I don't like to analyze poems or writing but I do like to write, that is why I'm taking Creative WRITING, not ANALYZING. I mostly write poems that don't rhyme, have a lot of meaning and things that go on through out my life. The next four months I plan to try on concentrating on school, since it is my senior year and I need to boost my GPA. But also I want have fun, make new friends, and enjoy my last year of highschool. I don't know any authors or specific writer but hopefully I'll find someone that I can remember.

Metaphor Poem:

As I look up in the sweet
Dark night
I try counting the stars
And soon realize
Our love is like the
Twinkling stars
Even though you might
Not see it during the day
You always know it's going
To show up sooner or later

Our love is like the
Twinkling stars
Every night is different
And you know that anywhere
You go it will always be
There

Surrounding you




Thanks guys!!!
