Poems by Sophia:
___________________________
tears stain my cheeks
sobs leave my mouth
and I'm left gasping for air
Each breath I take feels like a fire has been set in my lungs and all is being burned inside me.
I can't breathe
I truly can't, because every time I inhale the thick air around me, I find myself wishing I could suffocate in it.
is it selfish to wish death upon myself?
and if so, I'm a self absorbed bitch.
I can't stand the simple thought of breathing the same air you do
i NOW understand why you hated me so much, because EVERYTIME I stare into the mirror and my eyes set into my reflection pure disgust erupts within me.
perfection is the goal
and till death do me part
and breath no longer enter my lungs
I will reach for perfection
until I slip, fall and turn into another breath you intake.

poem:
inside my body lies a soul, a soul that's gone through far too much within a small time-span. A small smile sets onto my lips and all seems to suddenly become "perfect".everyone forgets that a smile is the biggest mask you can wear,behind my smile is a wrecked soul, trying to live in the cruel world, trying to survive off of others and their happiness. trying and miserably failing at absorbing the intellectual happiness that radiates off others,but it's impossible. No matter how many times I repeat "everything's going to be okay" I can't help but disagree with myself. I try to see the world with a positive light but all I see is blue. But the blue is slowly transforming itself into black, and I'm not ready to fall into a new shade.

Annabella's poems:
___________________________
Why?I feel like crying but I can't. I won't let myself. If I do I feel weak if I don't I think I'm indifferent from other people , but this time I wish I could. I wish they would ask me how I feel not how was school or how was my day. No. How do you feel? Why is that so easy to ask but so rarely used? Why?
---------------------------------------------- ChangeI feel his eyes piercing the side of my face, looking for a sign or a crack of a smile. I give neither. He doesn't know why I'm mad at him but I am. I can tell he's frustrated but doesn't give up until finally. He asks me why I'm mad I just look at him and oh how I wished I could get lost in his hazel brown eyes. I see a spark of green in his eyes before I look straight and ignore him. I hear him give a sigh and move to her. I look back at him feeling a flare of jealously in me I stare at them for awhile before going back to a straight face. I know it's my fault for being that way with him but I can't help but act on my emotions and thoughts. I hate what I did but I can't change it. I also hate them together but I can't do anything about it. I know I'm not anything special to him but I like to think I am or that he would at least care if I was gone. I wish I was different. I wish I could change.
----------------------------------------------
HelpI'm choking. What's going on? What's wrong with me? Why do I feel this way? Everything's weighing down on me and I feel like I can't breathe. Why did he leave? Why am I here? It kills me inside all this pain. I wish I could disappear. I have no hope. I feel alone. I wish I was never born. I wish I could go back and be happy again, but I can't. I don't know what happy feels like. I'm drowning again. I can't do this anymore. I need to leave. I want to leave. I can't. You're holding me back and I don't know how much I can take. I've hit my limit. The water is getting in my lungs and it's getting harder to breathe. I want to be saved. I need to be saved from myself. Please. I need help.
----------------------------------------------
My tears stain my pillow and I let out my sobs, letting them wrack my body. Why did he do this to me? Was I that easy? You hurt me so many times and now I'm broken, in repairable. I feel disgusted with my body. I feel dirty. I try to wash you off but it all comes back. STOP COMING BACK! I can't do this anymore. I try to forget you and I do for awhile but when I'm alone the demons in my head come out to play and now I'm scared. I scream for help but it seem like it was only a whisper. You are always in my head no matter how much I try to run away you always catch up to me. I thought you wouldn't hurt me. I thought you were my family. You said you would always be there and never hurt me. You lied and I fell for it
----------------------------------------------
And then she began to cry
Not the kind of cry
When you graze
Your knee
The kind of cry that you knew she wasn't okay anymore. She wasn't the happy go lucky girl anymore. She appears to be happy in daylight but at night her demons take control of her mind and then she is l o s t.

Gianna's poems:
___________________________
Trust is a strong word. Trusting someone doesn't just happen. You have to build trust. Create trust overtime. I trusted the wrong person. Someone who I thought was my friend. I trusted someone who I thought would never go behind my back. Never lie or betray me. I guess I was wrong because I never thought it would come to this. I never thought that someone who I thought was my friend would do something like this. Lie to my face and steal someone that meant so much to me. She stole him from me and locked him up. Persuaded me to ignore him. Persuaded him to ignore me. My life became miserable and dull. Going to bed every night with tear stains on my pillow. Thinking about him all day not knowing if I should say something or not. No one else could make me laugh the way he did. No one else would understand our secret inside jokes. No one really understood our "relationship." This person took all that away and I will never forgive her.
----------------------------------------------
He makes me laugh like no one else can. Every time I see him in the hallway I smile and he smiles back. I get chills every time we talk about things that only we talk about. His laugh. His eyes. His everything. All of this makes me like him, but not the way everyone expects me to. I get asked everyday if I like him. The answer is I do. As a friend. As a best friend. No more than that. He gets asked everyday if he likes me. He does as a friend. As a best friend. Everyone calls us the perfect couple. Everyone tells us to just get together already but I don't understand why. Ya we talk. A lot. Pretty much all day other than classes. Ya we walk together. To pretty much every class. We are best friends. That's it. Right?

We are not a judges we won't ignore your problems we will not judge you like society would we are here for each other to be the little push we need to keep going all of us are having some problem we have to let it out sometimes family won't help but we will help one another not leaving any one behind what I'm trying to say is that "sometimes it all gets a little to much" I feel we should say our problems and help with it I feel like I can't say anything because I'm afraid of judgement I know that my problem is stupid but inside my emotional state is a wreck I cry easily and all I have is the mirror to show me how much of a failure I am and how I should just give up on this so guys we should say our problems like Annabella did so we can help each other.
----------------------------------------------
The Room:When did I fall into this room. The walls seem to close every day, until one day I escape this room. The room we call life. For now I'm stuck in here thinking of you, but you only seem to watch me suffer. This room might kill me someday, but for now this room makes my sleeves stain red. Life as we call it can be filled with happiness, but I have a life filled with lies and emotions I can't express .
