Suicide Last week my cousin tried to commit suicide. This is my #poem for him, because we aren't that close, but were still family and I love him: I remember the smiles, The happy laughs of summer. The water fights in the park, Each telling off by our parents for wet clothes. I remember you growing, Suddenly towering above everyone. You were always in your room, Always with a new girlfriend. I remember your help, When I was teased at school. You always helped me, And now... And now I remember this, The slashes on your wrists; The blood pouring down your arms, The attempt that didn't end it. <3
Once On A Yellow Piece Of Paper Once on a yellow piece of paper with green lines he wrote a #poem And he called it "Chops" because that was the name of his dog And that's what it was all about And his teacher gave him an A and a gold star And his mother hung it on the kitchen door and read it to his aunts That was the year Father Tracy took all the kids to the zoo And he let them sing on the bus And his little sister was born with tiny toenails and no hair And his mother and father kissed a lot And the girl around the corner sent him a Valentine signed with a row of X's and he had to ask his father what the X's meant And his father always tucked him in bed at night And was always there to do it Once on a piece of white paper with blue lines he wrote a #poem And he called it "Autumn" because that was the name of the season And that's what it was all about And his teacher gave him an A and asked him to write more clearly And his mother never hung it on the kitchen door because of its new paint And the kids told him that Father Tracy smoked cigars And left butts on the pews And sometimes they would burn holes That was the year his sister got glasses with thick lenses and black frames And the girl around the corner laughed when he asked her to go see Santa Claus And the kids told him why his mother and father kissed a lot And his father never tucked him in bed at night And his father got mad when he cried for him to do it. Once on a paper torn from his notebook he wrote a #poem And he called it "Innocence: A Question" because that was the question about his girl And that's what it was all about And his professor gave him an A and a strange steady look And his mother never hung it on the kitchen door because he never showed her That was the year that Father Tracy died And he forgot how the end of the Apostle's Creed went And he caught his sister making out on the back porch And his mother and father never kissed or even talked And the girl around the corner wore too much makeup That made him cough when he kissed her but he kissed her anyway because that was the thing to do And at three a.m. he tucked himself into bed his father snoring soundly That's why on the back of a brown paper bag he tried another #poem And he called it "Absolutely Nothing" Because that's what it was really all about And he gave himself an A and a slash on each damned wrist And he hung it on the bathroom door because this time he didn't think he could reach the kitchen. (I do not own, from The Perks of Being a Wallflower, but I love this #poem so much)
Teen Queen UK Hi everyone, has anyone heard about the 2013 Teen Queen Competition, I'm on the website and to be honest, I think the things a big con. The company is in Liquidation and apparently the owner is trying to get money to run away with, if anyone you know is on it tell them not to bother, I've had at least 20 votes from my family and only one has shown up, also my friend has 17 from no-one we know:// Don't be fooled! Xx
