I AM… I am lost and insecure I wonder if anyone notices I hear girls laugh I see my reflection in the mirror I want to feel comfortable with myself I am lost and insecure I pretend that I am fine I feel sadness taking over I touch my face I worry what I will do I cry when I have these thoughts I am lost and insecure I understand everyone has flaws I say everything will be okay I dream about being happy I try to fake a smile I hope one day these thoughts disappear I am Savannah Mackenzie Hillenbrand

NAME POEM A name is what you go by That’s how you’ll be remembered By your name Not by who you are Not by how you act Not by what you wear But by your name Hope you have a good one

What is life? Tell me What is it? Life is hell Life is cold Life is pain Life is torture Life is Death What is death? Death is peace Death is gone Death is happiness Death is free Death is Life FREE POEM(LIFE)

I can hear my heart breaking Sadness has taken over My heart is dying I give up No more being strong No more “being happy” I’m hurting and nobody sees it Nobody cares I am alone I have nobody I am drowning in this hell I am slowly dying I am slipping away Falling down And this time I can’t get up Goodbye to this cold world EXTENDED METAPHOR

I am from bobby pins and mix match socks I am from dying brown grass in my backyard I am from grandma Pam yelling at me for painting on her walls I am from my mom always telling me to follow my dreams I am from turkey and homemade macaroni and cheese I am from my top drawer filled with letters from my dad I AM FROM…

Stay for tonight If you want to I can show you What my dreams are made of, as I'm dreaming of your face I've been away for a long time Such a long time And I miss you there I can't imagine being anywhere else I can't imagine being anywhere else but here How the hell did you ever pick me? Honestly, I could sing you a song But I don't think words can express your beauty It's singing to me How the hell did we end up like this? You bring out the beast in me I fell in love from the moment we kissed Since then we've been history They say that love is forever Your forever is all that I need Please stay as long as you need Can't promise that things won't be broken But I swear that I will never leave Please stay forever with me LOVE SONG

Here we go Stomach tied in knots If you can’t hang I’ll take you there Who are you now? I’m sorry I left you all alone You still have all my heart I feel so low Let love bleed red You kill me I feel you slipping away Congratulations, you have broken me Be happy you’re free now But, don’t you ever forget about me SONG TITLE POEM

Hey diddle diddle The cat and the fiddle The cow jumped over the moon The little dog laughed To see such fun And the dish ran away With the spoon CHILDREN'S POEM

It’s so cold here Dark, cold, and lonely. Dead leaves crunching underneath feet A dying tree stands tall Clinging on the last bit of life it has left Dying flowers, Pleading for a bit of attention NATURE POEM

I try to avoid it This is not what I want All I want is a change I just want to be different I don’t want this I don’t want to be whatever this is I wish things were different I don’t want to feel like this SESTINA

I wonder what it would be like to die Maybe dying would be best I sit here trying not to cry I am different from the rest Maybe dying would be best This will be goodbye I am different from the rest In the end I’m not afraid to die This will be goodbye Im leaving this world slowly In the end im not afraid to die I feel so lonely Im leaving this world slowly Who will tell the story of my life I feel so lonely I fade into the night Who will tell the story of my life I sit here trying not to cry I fade into the night I wonder what it would be like to die PANTOUM

I fade into the night This will be goodbye Who will tell the story of my life In the end I am not afraid to die I’m leaving this world slowly My soul is laid to rest I am so lonely Maybe this is for the best As I feel myself fall I begin to cry I make a joke of it all I don’t want to die I want to be happy I want to be free SONNET

I love you so much You are my everything You are my absolute world I cannot lose you I’d be so lost without you Don’t ever leave me You are my first love You are my one and only You’re all that I want HAIKU

The first time I saw her… Everything in my head went quiet All the ticks, all the constantly refreshing Images just disappeared When you have obsessive compulsive Disorder, you don’t really get quiet moments Even in bed I’m thinking Did I lock the doors? Yes Did I wash my hands? Yes Did I lock the doors? Yes Did I wash my hands? Yes But when I saw her the only thing I could think about was the hairpin curve of her lips… FAVORITE LOVE POEM
