alrighty, time for some talking. i wish i knew how to handle situations better. because right now, im in a tough situation. im in a relationship with somebody, but now as i come to realize, we have absolutely nothing in common, and we are always disagreeing about something. if i dare to suggest anything besides watching a movie or fooling around, then he wants nothing to do with it. what i mean is, when im in a relationship, i put alot of myself into it. i devote alot of my own personal time to this person, because i care. but if the person i am dating doesnt care enough to listen to some of my ideas or to maybe do something that they dont necessarily want to do to make me happy, then i cant take it. now i dont mean doing something that they absolutely hate just to make me happy, but i mean, just cuz you dont WANT to do something, doesnt mean that your significant other doesnt either. you have to make sacrifices sometimes in relationships. when it comes down to it, a relationship is about 2 people. and both of those peoples personal opinions come into play. both of their wants and needs. not just the one persons. you have to be able to compromise and work things out amongst eachother. otherwise, your not in a relationship. your 2 completely seperate people who talk to each other, or should i say argue with each other all the time. am i really asking too much from a relationship? to be honest, i just want to be treated like a girlfriend. not just that person that your standing next to, or just that person on the phone. i just want to be happy. thats all. am i being to harsh? am i asking too much? i dont know. but i do know how a person should be treated. and i dont feel that i am being treated the way i should be. well. im done for now. ill write later. comment if you feel you have any advise. thanks- Katy

Just me...

okay.
well, if you haven't noticed, i haven't really posted anything besides poems. I'm going to be changing that. i will be writing more things. mostly just my thoughts, and things that are going on in my life. right now i am currently orange. ha. due to me being stupid and trying out one of those spray on tan stuff. well, it didn't quite work out very well. there's spots that i missed, and me being the white ghost that i am, it stands out BIG time. lol. so hopefully this fades away soon, because i don't want to be orange for TOO long. ya know? who wants to be orange? oh, haha Ive already been called an oompa loompa today. that was funny. good thing they were one of my friends, or they sure would have gotten a piece of me! wow. i just looked back on how much Ive written, and i don't think Ive ever written this much just on my free time. the only thing that i usually write is poems. that's my specialty. :] but hey. i will have to get back to this one later. ttyl! ~katy

Art

A way for someone,
to express their emotions
through paint and canvas.
to show their love
towards life

The beauty that
they have made
usually reflects
this persons understanding
of our world.

to be able to create
beauty within the
eyes of the beholder
they first have to
know what the people want

Their work must show
character but yet at
the same time,
show their love and
dedication towards art.

Child-like Faith

To rely upon one,
who you cannot see.
you take for granted
everything you are taught
no reason to doubt.

But as we grow old
we lose sight of this
thinking beyond what
we are taught.
losing faith

Sometimes we forget
who holds power in our lives
and act as if this is our own.
we dont have faith in the one
who matters most

So here we are,
children of God.
let us live out our lives
learning and listening
with a child-like faith.

Faith

If we don't have faith,
then what DO we have.
we don't have anything.
as long as we act as if
we rule the world

the one and only who knows
what will happen in our lives,
is the man upstairs.
a lot of us forget he is there
watching over us and teaching us

This man so to speak,
is the only one to whom
we can turn to in hope
of a life that we will love.
a wonderful life that we dream of.

This mans name is God.
he controls our lives,
gives us strength when we are weak
he is our holy father
Lord God our Savior.

Earth

this is where we stay
to live out all of our plans
where we plan to grow a family
with families down the way
where we all live happily.

we don't realize what we
have done to our dear earth
used up what its made of
made its precious animals die
we just don't understand

what are we doing?
why cant we realize that
all that we have done
is killing our world.
can we fix things?

at our point in life,
all we can do is simply
hope for the best
do what we can
to do things right

The Mall

a place where people come
to join with friends
to buy overpriced items
to be a part of a world
that is based on popularity

clothes that you don't need
but you go out to get anyway
you show them to your friends
in hopes that they will approve
what has our world become

Our world has become
a place where price
no longer matters.
all that matters,
is how we look in the mirror

Fear

What will come next
will it be more disappointment?
do i need to be afraid?
will someone get hurt?
should i be afraid?

a fear of what will happen
if all doesn't go as planned
things go askew
not the way they should
what do i do?

what about the future
what will it hold
will it be bad?
or will we be lucky?
or should we prepare

hiding from people
keeping the lights on
staying in groups
never going off alone
fear.

Reflection

Look in the mirror
see yourself smile
and then frown
you've noticed a zit
and you turn away.

If a mirror could speak
it would tell you to stop
to keep looking at the beauty
that is in front of you
it would tell you to look

But you would say no
and turn away in shame
without realizing that
the mirror was right
look again.

When you return,
dont turn away
but keep on looking
at the beauty
before your eyes

Love

What happens when you fall in love.
when that special someone comes your way
walks next to you,
holds your hand.
what is love?

Reminders of what to do next
real close to your face emotion
spewing out in all directions
reassurance of love shared.
true love. whats that?

New ideas shared everyday
neither are left alone
no unrealistic circumstances
natural feelings and bonds
never the same

Love.
