Mostly poems, but a few thoughts I wanted to write down. :) NOTE: My free time is limited, but I'll do my best to add a few poems every so often.

I want to sit above all the rooftops,
Eat ice cream and scream at the top of my lungs
With a person I love.

I want to experience much more
Than this small town has to offer,
To leave it all behind without a second thought.

I want to escape my reality,
School, study homework, sleep, repeat,
It's exhausting to be the straight-A, perfect student your parents want.

I want the waves of sadness to abate,
To be gone and never return,
It's too much when I'm already struggling as a student.

I want to do everything that scares me,
Make my life more exciting and increase my level of happiness,
If only I was so brave.

I want to be free,
No one to hold me back or talk me down,
But I'm shackled in society's chains.

I want to live.
