I'm A Poet & I Didn't Know It...Hey, That Rhymes!!!

Hey, I'm back, & I'm sorry that my last post was so quick, I was rushing. So anyways...It's now time for "News From DJMS", brought to you by ME!! Haha! So, the latest stuff that involves me @ school... #1. Finals are next week!!! UGH!!! I HATE HATE HATE tests & finals & all that crappy junk! It's just like TAKS! For 4 WHOLE DAYS!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH! But that brings me to my 2nd piece of news... #2. My 13th birthday is a week from today!!!! YAY!!!!!! I'm super excited, because it's the day after the last day of finals, & we have no school next Friday(my birthday, January 16th, @ 7:35 a.m.), so it's like celebrating my birthday & it's also like celebrating the end of semester finals! Double-Yay! So, my last real piece of news has to do with a chain text that's going around my school. It's about this ghost or something...here, I found the account on Snopes. Check it out:


"Carmen Winstead was pushed down a sewer opening by 5 girls in her school,trying to embarrass her in front of her school during a fire drill.When she didn't submerge the police were called.They went down and brought up 17 year old Carmen Winstead's body,her neck broken from hitting the ladder,and then the side concrete at the bottom.The girls told everyone she fell...They believed them.FACT:2 months ago,16 year old David Gregory read this post and didn't repost it.When he went to take a shower he heard laughter from his shower,he started freaking out and ran to his computer to repost it.He said good night to his mom and went to sleep.5 hours later his mom woke up in the middle of the night cause of a loud noise.David was gone.That morning a few hours later the police found him in the sewer,his neck broken and his face skin peeled off. Even google her name- you'll find this to be true. If you don't repost this saying 'they pushed her' Then Carmen will get you,either from a sewer, the toilet, the shower,or when you go to sleep you'll wake up in the sewer,in the dark, then Carmen will come and kill you."


It's super spooky, but DUH it's not real. Snopes said it's false, & besides, you gotta be pretty darn gullible or stupid to think "Oh no, I must forward this to 10 people or Carmen will come & rip my face off!" Hahahaha! So, my last order of business that is NOT part of "News @ DJMS" is that my mom pointed out that I seemed to be more of a poet than a songwriter, after she read "Lover's Sorrow" on my blog, so I've decided that they are all poems now, except for "Lullaby" & my new song, "Where You Are", because I've put music to those. Ok, I wrote 2 new poems, called "You Don't Know" & "My Rainbow". Here's "You Don't Know":
They think it's simple,
They think its a breeze,
But the truth is, that in childhood,
All the rest do is tease.
You feel lost and delirious.
Sometimes, it's a daze.
Middle school is nothing short
Of a big, gigantic maze.
So when I scream and cry,
Parents say they're friends, not a foe.
But all I gotta say to that is
You don't know.
& here is "My Rainbow":
You are my sunshine, my rainbow,
My bright, new day.
When clouds of sadness come,
You keep them at bay.
With you, I'm forever happy,
Like the child inside.
When I stay with you,
Troubles don't come by.
You are my sunshine, my rainbow,
Happiness can't go away.
You are my hope, my love,
Nothing will take you away.
& last, but certainly not least, is "Where You Are":
Verse 1
I'm sitting by my bedside
Waiting for you
I look out the window
Still waiting for you
The snow is falling lightly
It's waiting for you, too
I'm waiting for you, Romeo
Come save me, please do!
Chorus
You promised to be here
To be here with me
I sit out here, where are you?
I love you, can't you see?
Left here on this cold, cold night
Watching the stars
I can't bear to be alone
I want to be where you are
Verse 2
The stars are disappearing
While I'm waiting for you
A single tear rolls down my cheek
Sick of waiting for you
The rain is pouring down
Even while I cry
I, Juliet, can't be here much longer
All I do is sigh
(Chorus)
Verse 3
I think I see now
It's useless, waiting for you
It's becoming very clear
It's silly, waiting for you
It feels like a dream, a nightmare
Except that this is real
You're killing me, my love
While I die in kneel
(Chorus)
Ending
Left here in this dark, cold world
Watching the last star
I can't bear to be alone 
I want to be where you are
...Where you are.
I think that "Where You Are" is fantastic, but it took a super-long time to write, because I wrote it, changed it, finished it, prepared to post it(I have this thing that whenever I post a song or poem on my blog, it's officially published, & I can no longer alter the lyrics or music.), looked for the paper with the song on it, discovered that I lost it, realized that I could rewrite it because I remembered the 1st verse & chorus, rewrote it, gave it to friend to read, thought that friend lost paper AGAIN, got a little mad, realized that friend still had paper, apologized for madness, got paper back, wrote "You Don't Know" & "My Rainbow", decided to be a poet/songwriter, & finally, posted 2 new poems & 1 new song. Great, huh? Well, I gotta go. Later, song gators! (Hee hee, I love changing my gators thing. ;) )
