cover The Best Guy
I see him here in front of me. His smile is bright as can be. He stares back at me, and I question, is the friendship true? He says, "Yes," but his grin is big. He responds, "Well, ya know it's true that I do love you..." So I said, "Guess what? I love you, too."

Azure Sea
The terrifying azure waves rip harshly over my head as I struggle to get some air. I can't find him, where is he? I say to myself as the azure sea pulls me in, the underflow is harsh as can be. I see a silhouette and think it's his. But, is it? As I try to swim to the silhouette and body, I struggle for air, I want to save him. All of a sudden I pray to myself that he is okay. Next I know, I am on my knees praying to him in a box, with his lips sealed, eyes closed, and heart stopped. I apologize to him for I could not save him from the villainous sea. Just remember that I love you and nothing will change my love for you. I am sorry I was not there this time for you, but the reality is that I love you and hope to see you soon.

Meant to be...
Was it meant to be that she had to leave? She picked me up when I fell, she stopped me from going wrong. She was there when I shattered, there when I cried. It's just not the same. I can't walk into the Big Blue house like it was my own anymore. I don't have anyone to tell my problems to. I can't tell anyone about the hot guys in school. It's just not the same without her here. You dial three extra digits before her number...But, God, was it really meant to be that she left me?

Brown hair and Brown eyes
Light brunette, light brown eyes, and fawn skin, her profile is beautiful. Her smile is big, her heart is huge. Her laugh is more than everything, fun, wild, crazy too. Not enough words to describe kt.

Pink Princess
Just hope the pink princess will return her smile, her laugh will return, just hope she will return.

Trapped
Trapped in her small town, all alone and lots of frowns, trapped inside her small town. Sisters by her side, and her dad, but I am not sure she wants to be there.

Maple
Maplewood is my home. My friends are here, my heart is full of hopes and fears. They are by my side, next to me. Maplewood must be the place for me since this is where I love to be.

Colors
Does it matter if you are dark as the asphalt street or as white as the clouds? Does it matter to you if you're chocolate of fawn, does it? To me, it doesn't. To you, it might, but is it true that color really matters, or doesn't it? Did it ever hit anyone that Personality is the key? Or that the color is the key! To me, race is just another color of the rainbow. But, one question to you--why do you, who doesn't know me, and just cause I am a different color than you, you call me bad names... But do you know me? I don't know you, so just because my race is different than yours doesn't mean you can disrespect me. So next time you call me a name just because I am different than you, does not mean you have the right. So think twice.

Blue
The color name is so plain, different than any other color. Different shades, different types. Many meanings, many thoughts. But blue overall really describes something close to me. Do you really know what? I think it's my soul--it's made of blue goo. I love every shade, every different kind, and deep inside, my soul is blue and dreary, then bright and neon.

Galaxy
The stars, the moons, the comets--they remind me all of you. You shine in my head just like the stars. You rocket past me like a comet, yet you are viable. You are like the moon--you shine at night down on me. And I love you more than a galaxy or two. I definitely love you!
