Poetry On Odyssey: Sunset Collection

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.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
