    -----------------------------

    I like extreme sports, I like to rock climb
    Bodyboarding gives me such a great time
    I enjoy writing poetry, but it has to rhyme!

    I have some great friends, always there for me
    I play bass in a band, makes me feel free
    But Quasar really makes me happy!

    But few people see me from the inside
    Few people see the thoughts that I hide
    Hide from the world, so no-one will know
    What I'm thinking inside, I will never show.

    I have friends who judge me for the good times, in town
    And not for what I feel deep down
    I have a friend who is judging me now as I write
    Good or bad, I have no insight

    My life is hollow, I'm rarely high
    Before I sleep, each night I cry
    Now the truth is no longer a lie
    As my tears are falling, I often wish to die

    Few people see this other side
    I always shun it out of the light
    From the stupid world to hide
    My love, hidden in eternal night

    i wear black clothes
    i have black hair
    it seems i'm a shaddow
    as you dont' see me there

    i know im quiet
    and maybe shy
    but it doesn't mean when you see me
    you should walk on by

    my friends act cool
    go off for a smoke
    ignore my feelings
    as if they're a joke

    my name's linzi
    im fourteen years old
    can't they see my pain
    do they have to be told?

    who am i?

    Who am I?
    A fake is who I am,
    Living a life
    Which is all a sham.
    What you see
    Is not what you get
    To know the real me
    Is something I rarely permit.
    It’s not that I hate others
    Not that I dislike them all
    I just cannot trust them
    And never could that I can recall.
    So that is how I am,
    Orion the fake
    Hiding from life
    As grass hides a snake,
    Slithering though the undergrowth
    Wanting no one to see its path,
    Not wanting to hurt others
    Or to feel a persons wrath.
    The real me is hidden
    Lost deep within
    In the game of life
    I know I cannot win.
    And that is who I am,
    A lost and broken soul
    Wandering though existence
    A life beyond control.

    I am a girl,
    Just a girl, it's true
    Inside my heart beats
    Just like you

    As the days go by
    My emotions brood
    No pain ever alters
    My melancholy mood

    Why do they shout?
    Standing pround and coy
    Throwing insults and looks
    "Are you a girl or a boy"

    As I sit in the doorway
    With my hands on my face
    I cry to the heavens
    Because I have no place

    A few sacred people
    Offer me soul release
    But as I live without them
    I slowly decease

    As stars keep exploding
    Heros give up the fight
    Leaving me all alone
    Punching holes through the night

    I am a girl,
    But my dream's askew
    Inside I'm different
    I'm not like you

    ~Me, Sean Dohr~

    I am but a book,
    a book beyond a cover.
    If you step inside my cover and look,
    a whole new world you will discover.

    At times the words do not make sense,
    and at times I stutter and stumble.
    Sometimes my thoughts are too immense,
    and my mind and body crumble.

    Sometimes my pages are tattered and torn,
    from issues in the past.
    You should understand why my cover is worn,
    because of all the problems I've had to outlast.
    But this is all fine, as long as you see,
    that when you look past my cover there is much more to me.

    ~Sean Dohr~

    Divorce
    by Trisha

    I'm suck in this life,
    Being accussed of something I didn't do,
    Something that I'm not aloud to see my brother,
    And now after court I'm being accussed of seeing him now,
    Oh how I wish I would take a lie dector test,
    To prove to them I did none of the short,
    Then he would be caught in a lie not me,
    Then I would feel better,

    I feel as if I'm causing my mom pain,
    By her having me,
    He's blaming all his problems on me,
    I'm the one caught in the middle,
    I feel as if I'm holding down my mom for not being able to have my brother and sister,
    If I wasn't here she wouldn't be crying right now,
    But then again he would just be blaming all this crap on her instead of me,

    It should show that I'm at least trying to get help,
    If I had "problems,"
    But the judge should see that all he's doing is putting lies on people,
    That he has not made an effort to get HELP!

    When all this started I liked him until,
    He married my mom,
    Then he started to get mean,
    I never called him"dad,"
    He started pulling my hair and darning me by my hair to my room from the living room all the way on the other side of the house,
    Doesn't the judge see that!
    Doesn't he know what's going on,

    I feel the only way to help my mom is to get rid of myself,
    So she wouldn't be crying right now,
    I just want to make my mom happy,
    And that's with my brother and my sister,
    Mother this for you and your happiness.
