First Love

A simple poem about the first love

19
First Love
Blogspot

I don’t know how to tell you

But looking at you has made me,

Choke on my tongue.

I stumble over the thin ice


Breaking the glass

And drowning in the sharp, cold water.

Wha-What to say?

I don’t want you to think


I’m just some middle school girl

Cant think straight,

Do you like food?

But I mean – who doesn’t like food?


I like to order pizza

On a Friday night,

When I have nothing to do

Barbeque chicken, hold the onions


From Deeks down the street.

I always order online.

Have you ordered pizza?

You know the feeling you get?


When you’re waiting for it to arrive.

Then suddenly, the doorbell rings

And you leap up from the couch,

Tip money in hand


You just know it’s him.

The delivery man

And YOUR pizza

That feeling of happiness


The warmth and joy

Of seeing your pizza

The smells, oh, the smells!

The Barbeque, chicken and stringy mozzarella


Wiping the drool from your lower lip

You are the perfect pizza to me

My perfect pizza

That I could never get tired of


You know, I never get nervous

Unless its heights

That makes me nervous

You know the man


Who walked the tightrope,

Between two buildings?

You are a tightrope to me

Strong and supportive


You make me focus

But what if, what if I fell?

Because you make me feel so high

My palms start to sweat, for my fear of heights


But you saved me

Like an airbag

I can always count on you

Have you figured it out yet?


That I like…

Well… you?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
