74. Serpentine Mirror

I am gazing upon that strange girl in the mirror Though no lenses would make me notice her clearer Her blue eyes do not haze me for a second, no doubt This serpent is troublesome to figure out Might as well just give up and let myself go Who cares if I giggle and rock to and fro? This blonde will eventually wither to grey Those things will not matter which are important today As my heartbeats become scarce and my senses decay I will simply be begging to press the replay Overrated but true- "live life to the fullest, have fun" These flimsy words of wisdom are much easier said than done With every chuckle of laughter I sink to the ground For I truly feel guilty for goofing around My life should revolve around homework and chores No crazy nights out, no going to stores Yes, that girl in the mirror is trying to make me insane Maybe I should just follow my spirit and ditch this dull brain

73. Second Poem of the Year

When your eyelashes rest for the night And the moon shines down upon your hair You are in that half awake state of mind Not yet dreaming, yet he’s already there Every love song on the radio reminds you of him And each melody brings his face to your thoughts He is the first and last thing you ponder about everyday Yet you deny that you like him… a lot When you see someone that merely resembles him Your heart skips a beat and your palms start to sweat And with every chance you get to talk to him You cherish his words, which you won’t ever forget His smile melts your soul from across the room And his voice makes you thirsty for more Your heart outraces your logic by a mile ‘Till you do not understand yourself anymore Maybe not all is created to make sense All you know is that when you’re with him you feel swell When he crosses your mind more than ten times a day It’s apparent that he’s got you under his spell

72. Hello, 2011!

2010 is history; only tomorrow lies ahead All scabs have been punctured and mournfully bled But during this one point in time when the fireworks blaze My mind is unwired and left in a haze For all my troubles have fluttered away Like butterflies nesting, they've nothing to say Taking it easy and taking it slow Nothing to do and nowhere to go My vocabulary is basic and my writing is plain My mind is so dead it infects my whole brain Yet in the pitch black of the night The loud fireworks scare me outright Every whistle and wheeze digs into my heart Telling me that 2011 will be a fresh start There is not a single care in the world There is a soulmate for every girl Ah, it is true, time heals all pain But I`ll never be perfect and I won`t try in vain So cheers to the new year, a new journey lies ahead Let all wishes come true and all failures left dead
