A visit

I revisited this blog today
After ditching it years ago
I cannot believe I used to write
Such angst-y poetry 
I was at the height of my creativity 
I laugh now at who I used to be 
Appreciate the finer points
And look back on my way to looking forward

Am I?

Are you who you want to be?
What kind of question is that? 
Something I've never thought about. 
I've always known who I've wanted be years from now. 
But I've never asked myself :Am I living the life I want to live? 
Will defiantly pray about this one.

Blog reVIVED

(I abandoned this blog for a little while,but I'm back, with more short poetry. Below is a piece of a song for a story I'm writing)
With a fling of the hand, set the old ablaze
With a nod of the head wash the flames away
With a swing of the legs clear away the ash
With a cross of the arms make new Earth at last.
That's what you do to make new Earth

heard

When I open my mouth to speak
And no words are coming out
I am scolded for my rudeness
Yelled at for my loss of words

When I speak and words come out
But they do not sound like they should
I am stared at, briefly
And then left alone again

When I speak, and I am heard
I think This is what I want
Sometimes, all I want
Is to be listened to...

hazy...

Around
My whole day spins
I'm tired
So leave me alone
And don't talk to me
Those are my thoughts, sometimes
Today, my wish nearly came true on the wrong day
None of the guys talk to me...
At least, the ones I want to talk to
But I tell myself what I told everyone else:
"I don't like anyone. I don't need guy's approval. It's a waste of time"
I've never had so much trouble believing my own words...

footprint

Gunshot in the distance
Some hundred years ago
From whose gun this shot was fired from
No one knows
All I can think about
Are those footprints in the snow
Those crimson
Footprints in the snow

Was so-called freedom worth those bloody footprints in the snow?

Ragged breath by nightfall
Those hundred years ago
Was it the hundredth? Thousandth? Death that year
No one knows
But all can dream of
All I think of
Are those footprints in the snow
Those crimson
Footprints in the snow

Was so-called freedom worth those bloody footprints in the snow?

And as our leaders take their presidential thrones
Affecting how many?
No one knows
Do they they ever think of
Do they even know
Of those
Footprints in the snow
Those crimson
Footprints in the snow

Was so called freedom worth those bloody footprints in the snow?

energy

Sway
From side to side
Hold
Your head up high
You notice I'm energized
And you don't know why
Cuz I
Bounce
Way, way, too high
Sing
And it will reach the sky
You notice I'm energized
And I don't know why
Ever want to
Jump
From side to side
Sing
And touch the sky
It's cuz you feel energized
I hope you know why
