Anthem

Here's to the ones who don't give up
Here's to the ones who don't give up
Here's to the ones who don't give up
This is your anthem
Get your hands up

We are fire inside
We are lipstick and cleats
We are not going home
And we are playin for keeps
We are girls who skin knees
We are concrete and grace
We are not what you think
Can't keep us in our place

Here's to the girls on their boards with bruises and scars
Here's to the girls whose fingers bleed from playing guitar
Here's to anyone who never quit when things got hard
You'll never let them say
"You'll never get that far."
"Never get that far."
"Never get that far."

We are fire inside
We are an army asleep
We are a people awaking to follow their dreams
We don't have time for your games
We have our own goals to score
There are trophies to win
Instead of being one of yours

Here's to the girls on their boards with bruises and scars
Here's to the girls whose fingers bleed from playing guitar
Here's to anyone who never quit when things got hard
You'll never let them say
"You'll never get that far."
"You'll never get that far."


Here's to the ones who don't give up (x3)
This is your anthem (anthem, anthem, anthem, anthem)

Here's to the girls on their boards with bruises and scars
Here's to the girls whose fingers bleed from playing guitar
Here's to anyone who never quit when things got hard
You'll never let them say
"You'll never get that far."
"Never get that far."


I like this song, it's by Superchick.
:) Girl Power :)
It's my anthem.
I'm not going to give up.

Newer Scattered Thoughts

My thoughts are scattered
I’m reaching, grabbing
Missing

Unable to grasp
Can’t respond
Don’t know how

Thoughts are a mess
Contradicting

Too much to say
No guts
Want to, but can’t

So I’m writing
Writing these words
My thoughts


Would this be better? I changed it to 1st person.

E. E. Cummings

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)


Of course, I didn't write it.  It was the poem of the day, and I think it's sweet.
I'm working on finishing my notebook, so I should be posting some new ones soon...

27

27 more pages in my second notebook!

Only 27 more!

What to fill them with...

It's Okay

they’re looking for someone
unsure where to find him
he’s running and hiding
from what I do not know
down the hall at the right

they find him there
he’s trembling
trying to escape
from his past
and
his fears

calm him
comfort him
soothe him
I try to call
but they wont listen

I rush over
gathering him up in my arms
shhh
it’s alright
your ok
it’s all okay

Breathe

Hatred
about ready to explode
so quickly you fill up
with anger

scaring everyone
even yourself
please stop
take control

now you have a grasp
breathe
all will be okay
take my hand

My No Where

I’m taking a trip
where to
nowhere
where’s that
it’s where I close my eyes
and fly
it’s where I watch flowers
bloom
nowhere is the books
I read
it’s the laughs
of children
it’s the songs
I sing
that’s nowhere
the peace
noone
no hurry
no thoughts
no time
my nowhere
