Hey!! So I've decided that I'm going to be posting poetry here on LJ. I want you to know that a lot of this stuff is personal so I'm trusting you guys with it because I feel kinda safe here with you guys ^^
A lot of the poems are probably gonna be school projects but if I like them enough I'll post them up.
Please comment and tell me what you think. I've always loved writing poetry and I need to know other's feedback on it. Tell me what you think!!<33

This is a poem that shows memories of my life. No fiction is in this story so it's kinda personal but I still really like it!! Douzo!~

Where I'm From
i am from the wite snow faling on the ground
i am from the chrissmas lites gloing and shining brite on the peoples houses
i am from tag and blues clues and powerpuff girls
i am from "i luv u u luv me" and "gotta catch em all!!"
i am from barbie dolls and puppies and sometimes cats
i am from likking the spoon after baking with mommy
i am from drawing pictures with diferent colord crayons

I am from ice cream at the park
I am from rock climbing over mountains
that I thought were very tall
I am from the face that fell flat onto the metal bed spring
and the sister that helped me afterwards
I am from movie stars turning into super spies
in a matter of moments
I am from a cousin's tenth birthday party
that ended with my dad at the hospital.
I am from the encouraging words of others
that, somehow, found a way to help me through the night.
I am from heading into a new world
with many unfamiliar faces who, after a while
became the friendliest.
I am from shaking at the sight of all the people in the audience
looking at me and me alone, and finally finding the courage
to sing my soul out.
I am from that first song my cousin showed me that got me hooked to foreign music forever!
I am from saying goodbye to friends and giving a final speech before they go to be with the one the love.
I am from finding out they'll be right down the street; did I mention I'm from embarrassment over foolishness?
Watches chime and cell phones blast at full volume to the song "SANDSTORM";
My sister left her phone and forgot to turn off the alarm...
The room was quiet except for the sound of the fan.
I sigh as I lay back down on my pillow and go over everything that just went through my head.
When I reach the upstairs window I realize that it's still dark out.
The moonlight finds its way to me and strikes me directly.
I am from wishing on a star, hoping to keep these memories with me forever.
