This Birthday wish might not make you wise
But at least it wont strain your tired eyes
Your heads still harrier then your ears
but they might turn gray within the yar
Your aching from head to toe

My Name is Samantha Hurd and this is a poem about my Dad and his Drinking problem. My Dad drinks, I don't and I plan to keep it that way.
Everyday at my house it's a battle.
Step Over
It isn't over yet
Something new
Someone you haven't met
Fear, ignore
Power, strength, courage, tell me more
Onto the next
somewhere to explore
Words to make art
To make whole the heart
relieves the burdens of life
to forget the pain and the strife
Words from heaven make whole
the lost and weary soul
And eventually calm and peace
Dear Mom,
The first time you heard me cry,
The first time you held my tiny body in your hands,
We made an ubreakable bond.
As the leaves of time change and few things are the same,
I was kicked out by my mother and father,But I have not become a robber.Instead, I'm homeless and very tired.Shelter, a hot meal and a hot shower is all that I desire.My clothes are all tattered,
The ache of history
makes everything
heavy and dull.
Memory is
the cruelest tyrant.
How much can you bear?
Why are you always on the clutches of wishes?
However you are hurt you don’t seem to learn
Whenever the mind wants to stop, you continue
Whenever the mind wants to continue, you stop

When time freezes and I begin to contemplate the choices I've made fear is what begins to crawl and latch onto your back and when you see time swindling through the air you make a face that'd you normally do when you are in love or succeed on rev
Still:
He sat.
Blank:
His mind.
Once a mental sanctuary,
now a dull, parched Garden of Eden
Imaginations free-flowing organ plugged

You have a million things crossing your mind.time, money, bills, and schooling.So many things that you have to keep track of.As soon as you lose grip you're losing sight of.
The feeling can come anytime honestly
Pain, but i dont think you can understand
dont you too?
It comes in the pale yet vibrant light of a reflection deep in beauty
In cacophony
I love you more than those Versace heels worn by January Jones.
More that that Escada argyle sweater of neutral tones,
More than that five-hundred dollar Chanel necklace and that vintage Gucci purse and heels.
I am from Picture Frames
From Yankee Candles and febreeze Airspray
I am from the weeds growing under the deck
(tall, green, it tasted like celery)
I am from the Begonia semperflorens
the Gaillardia aristata,
prenez
prenez ce que vous pouvez and in those words a ray
of something foreign of something in the tributaries of all
fjords gorges long scraggly ravines in their mystery
I am the hunter, she is the bird.
I reach and reach but cannot hold.
Opporunity is her name.
She flaps her wings and flies away.
I hit my head, again and again.
On the cold hard ground in pure frustration.
Success without dedication
Winning without motivation
Beginning not knowing where to end
Sacrafices and many sins
Making realistic goals
Not doing what you are told
Following your dream
Support, another name for a friend.
Something that you really haven't been.
Instead of trying to see through my eyes
All you do is sit there and criticize.
Can’t you see,
I’m trying to be optimistic.
Everything you did,
I try my hardest to forget it.
Don’t wanna hurt you
By acting like I’m so resented.
But we’ve done it before,
I see the white kids on the swing,
My heart is pounding from within.
What will they say if i ask to play?
Will they say "go away," or " maybe another day?"
Mamma tells me not to worry,
You slash and burn and claw your way to the top of the tower,
Only to see that the view is the same from the ground.
