Dear Ex Love of my Life- Poem by Me

Hello, people. Good morning! I hope that you slept well. I actually had the hardest time getting to sleep. I was excited and stressed and probably caffeinated and I had put Frankincense on my face so that might have affected things. Also I had a few songs stuck in my head. I didn't fall asleep until at least 11:30. I am totally not sure how at 5:44 my eyes popped open like, "Good Morning! It's time to wake up now."
Yesterday I had to go to the doctor's for a physical. It was not lovely. She wanted to see things, and I did not want to let her. Then she told me to lay off the caffeine. 😭
I prefer dentists.
My school had a pep rally yesterday. It was interesting. A mom started dancing inappropriately with the mascot. I was like, there is a boy in there. C'mon people! Get a grip. The boy in the costume seemed cool with it. He pulled up his shirt to show the mascot's abs. (Our mascot has abs, can you believe that?) The male costume looks really awesome. My pastor, his wife, and my youth group leader were at the rally. It was so nice. Pastor's wife teaches middle school so she knows like half of the students, it was pretty funny watching Pastor try to keep up with her. After the rally I was people watching, like normal, and I caught sight of a football player. (Never really been into jocks, but I watch them sometimes.) I was like, look at dem calves.Image result for staring Lol. Hairy muscles. 🤣
My brother (who is three years old) is already quite the ladies man. On the way out of the school he found a pretty cheer leader to flirt with. I told my dad that when he is lady liking age is when I move back into his house. He will be trouble, and I will scare away all of the girls that I don't like. 😁
So the other day, an important figure from my past came back into my life. He has possibly every existing emotion tied to him, so understandably I was a bit of a wreck. I was unsure whether to be happy that he is speaking to me again or angry that he thinks I still care...after a year...so I wrote a poem. I have an idea that the emotions used to write this poem have changed, but it's an alright poem so I will show you guys. I call it, Dear Ex Love of my Life. (It was supposed to be Back from the Dead, but that didn't happen.)


Dear ex love of my life,
Why must you return and cause my strife?
Out of the blue. After a year.
Now you just up and reappear!
Am I still the holder of your love?
You ask me the bold question above
Suddenly, you surprise me.
He's back from the dead.
Old thoughts and feelings re-emerge,
Covered with dust and rust and dirt.
Someone else took your place, friend!
Must you try?
Can't you just admit that you lost this?

Dear ex love of my life,
Oh do tell me why you must cause this strife.
You had your chance, way back when
I was ready and willing to play this game.
Now that another has my heart,
You want to make it your own.
Any chance you have will take hard work.
My love is no longer given; it's earned.
I don't know what to think; what to feel.
Like seriously, are you fereal?
Do you actually intend to try?
Am I, truly your prize?

Dear ex love of my life,
Oh do tell.
Why?
I want to understand
Your motivation.
I need to know why
You chose this time.



So that is my latest poem. He hasn't seen it. I haven't even told him that it exists. (Kind of embarrassing, don't you think?) Also it implies me closing doors when actually I was just trying to cope. (Okay, I was also taking advantage of my own emotions.) Sometimes pain is profitable. The deepest poems are often the best, so if I am ever like, an emotional wreck, my logical side takes advantage of the opportunity. My emotional side would rather sit and cry or something. lol. I hope you guys enjoyed it. I think that's all for today. Have a good one. Your comments are always welcome. Go ahead and share this blog with all of your friends. (wink, wink, nudge, nudge)

How To Write a Limerick

Good morning, People! How was your sleep? Mine was alright. In my dream, my buddy Flash found my lost Starbucks gift card. He was like SWEEET until I told him it was mine. Then he looked a bit bummed. I (seeing this sad face and not particularly liking it) decided to make a deal. "Tell you what. You can keep the card if you promise to get coffee with me." "You do not have control over that stuff." He took my card and walked away. Fereal? Who does that??? LOL. Fortunately it was just a dream. I still have my half spent gift card. Now that we have talked just a bit, it is time to get serious. We are going to write a Limerick. {What in tar nation is a Limerick?}Hold your horses, I am about to explain. A Limerick is a form of poem following an A-A-B-B-A pattern. This means that lines 1,2,and 5 rhyme and lines 3, and 4 also rhyme. The lines labeled "A" are longer than the others and have the same rhythm. I will try to write a Limerick right now. (I literally...

Decorate a Leader Night

Hello. Today is Thursday. I wasn't sure what to write about to be honest. The past twelve hours have been a bit like an emotional rollercoaster. I would rather not discuss it right now.  So instead, I decided to talk about poetry. I don't really want to do that though. My brain is a bit mushy. However! I did find this sonnet by Shakespeare. I really like the last line in the sonnet. It just stands out in sharp contrast. I must show you. Here you go, Sonnet 65 by Shakespeare. Sonnet 65 Since brass, nor stone, nor earth, nor boundless sea But sad mortality o’er-sways their power, How with this rage shall beauty hold a plea, Whose action is no stronger than a flower? O, how shall summer’s honey breath hold out Against the wrackful siege of batt’ring days, When rocks impregnable are not so stout, Nor gates of steel so strong, but time decays? O fearful meditation! where, alack, Shall time’s best jewel from time’s chest lie hid? Or what strong hand can hol...

Lonely in the Crowd

At the sight of a title like that, you may be feeling...idk a little shocked, a little curious, maybe confused.  That is just the title of my poem that I wrote yesterday.  It has been long inspired, but had cooled down for a while. (I only write good poems if I am feeling the displayed emotion) Saturday afternoon I was either completely ignored by a guy I was trying to speak to or just unheard.  Either way, it happens a lot and brought back that same lonely emotion that inspired the poem. I was admittedly a bit angry because I hate being ignored, but I was also like,  "Ooh, now I can write that poem." I wrote it after church yesterday.  Here it is. Lonely in the Crowd Like an unseen mime In the unseen box I stand here, Invisible, lost. Unseen by those around Here I am Lonely in the crowd. All around are smiling faces That do not see I'm in the darkest of places. Can you not see me? Here I am Lonely in the crowd. Not for lack of...
