Boyfriends

Writing a poem for your loved one is always the hardest thing to do.
The right words are hard to find, as they crawl slowly but surely to the tip of your tongue.
I hope I can do this.
New post tomorrow with the job done.

Dep.

I fear waking up every morning.
The smell of breakfast makes me want to vomit.
Getting ready makes me want to go back to eternal slumber,
and leaving the house leaves me regret and feeling forced.

"I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" by Maya Angelou


 The free bird leaps
on the back of the win
and floats downstream
till the current ends
and dips his wings
in the orange sun rays
and dares to claim the sky.

But a bird that stalks
down his narrow cage
can seldom see through
his bars of rage
his wings are clipped and
his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing.

The caged bird sings
with fearful trill
of the things unknown
but longed for still
and is tune is heard
on the distant hillfor the caged bird
sings of freedom

The free bird thinks of another breeze
an the trade winds soft through the sighing trees
and the fat worms waiting on a dawn-bright lawn
and he names the sky his own.

But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams
his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing

The caged bird sings
with a fearful trill
of things unknown
but longed for still
and his tune is heard
on the distant hill
for the caged bird
sings of freedom.
Do dreams tell something about the future? I always wonder about this, and now, I have a more profound wonder of this. On July 9th, I wrote that I had a dream where half of my head is shaved, and I now have my head shaved. So, did I predict that this would happen?
I should start cataloging my dreams more often, looking for events that have to do with them.

No holding back now.

Today I have decided that because this is my blog, and I want to be selfish with it, then I am not going to hold back on anything that I want to write. This is SamEatSam uncensored form now on. I mean, it's not like anybody actually reads this! And with that new beginning, here's the latest photo taken of me by a fellow writer, Adan Vicario.

Teenagers.

Being the new girl, it's never an easy thing. People come say hi, they ask for your name and pretty much everything else about you. I've moved schools every year, so I would know when I tell you that it's a bittersweet experience.
All the boys want you and all the girls stare, there may be both love and jealousy in the air. It keeps getting better with all of the affection, and seems quite perfect with all of the attention. you will always be a favourite, especially if you're pretty, and on all of the other girls you'll seem to take pity. You'll morph into the popular one, and it takes about a year to have all that won.
First day of school, still at the same place, everybody knows you... until they see a new face. The new girl walks into the room, bright-eyed, and fresh-faced, she's the skinny type, tall, blonde, and great taste. All eyes fall on her, she looks like a beauty. I witness all jaws drop, how could this be happening to me?
The end has come.
