What's Yours?

every person should have
one thing that they're obsessed with,
be it music, a specific book,
a show, a movie, or even a Brand -
any materialistic object
that you've allowed yourself
to be spoiled with -
this one thing
that never fails to put
a smiLe on your face,
that cheers you up
no matter how pathetic you feel,
that makes all the bad things go away,
as it banishEs whatever terrible thoughts
you had in your head just a second ago.

no matter how rotten your day is,
no matter how unfair
and f-ed up your life is,
this is the one thing you can turn to,
the plAce where you hide in,
the feeling you want to keep,
and the memory you never want to forget.

the excitement when something new
Comes out and you're giddy with joy
as you start jumping around in your room
the jolt of energy you can't
hold in any longer,
the adrenaline rush that flows
throughout every inch of your body,
and the need to share
this uncontrollable Happiness
with those patient and caring
enough to actually listen to,
and not just hear, what you're telling them.

Yet To Do

10:18 pm on a monday night,
cold and Sitting here by myself,
i can feel the wind of an autumn night
Come in through my window.
on thanksgiving breAk,
i'm wondeRing what everybody Else is Doing.

As i'm sitting here typiNg,
i'm remindeD of my list of things to do,
the homeWork i've yet to get started on,
the room i've yet tO clean,
the books i've yet to Read,
the list of volumes i've yet to buy,
the studying i've yet to accomplish,
the notes i've yet to write,
applications i've yet to finish filling out,
peRsonal statements I've yet to rEvise,
and the number of Days i have left
before the 30th of november.

Kitty

the girl who everyone looks up to,
the one whom every boy has A crush on
aNd whom every gIrl wants to be;
the girl with the cat ears,
the one whoM no onE Could've hated,
not even me;

she's probably no different from us,
but she made things Look easy,
she made sitUations Bearable,
and tries to make life,
a little more exciting.

she is amazing,
the way she handles complicated matters
as if they were nothing,
as if they were only temporary.
her style is flawless, true to herself
as she strolls through life
unaffected by the opinion of others.
never even considering to fit in,
she stood out and shined.

quiet and friendly,
she got along with many,
and they, in turn, remained by her side.
a year was all it took
to see how a Person can handle so much
while still being loyal to heRself.
unawarE of her effect on otherS,
she continues to shine.
for those who couldn't see this potential,
well, they were just plain blind.
(or they're idiots) ;)

Four Years Of Reign

i'm mad at a million thIngs today
but one cause of my anger
steMs from a group of people.
the ones who run the school,
the oNes you see everywhere.
ignoring them fOr four years
is close to impossible.
geTting constanTly annoyed by them
is closer to the trutH,
more so than anything.

they signed up for it,
thEy should have known what they
were getting themselves into.
the rest of us shouldn't have tO change
for the sake of their convenience

just be quiet, please shut up,
not everyone kNows you
like you think they do.
continue to advocate what you want
but please put on a real show,
at Least make us want to go,
convince us there's a good reason to,
instead of just trYing to make yourselves look cute.

no matter which one of you it is,
you're all the same.
walking around in control
when all sOme people want to see
is how fast you can slip and fall.
meaniNgless efforts go to waste,
you think people look up to you,
no, that's not the case.
few potEntials just wanting to get noticed,
unspoken words say you don't deserve your place.
