When I first met you,
you hid behind your dad.
I stood in front of my mom,
and we stared at each other.
Flash forward a month or so,
and we're in my bedroom,

so i decided, for some reason, in a moment of creative unfufillment while on vacation this past summer that the best way for me to occupy my eleventh grade year was to write, cast, direct and edit my own horror movie.

I want to stop cancer. Many of my family members died from cancer. It's a horrible thing. I will find a way to do it. I'm not going to cure cancer, I'm going to end it.

There is a step that could help you with your life, like into your home or maybe into school. Wherever you are taking a step, remember that step can help you.

I would like to be a General in the Army. The first step is to work hard, train, and, most importantly, eat good and nutritious foods. Also, I will learn in school and take a risk to save my country.

I think you forget that we are listening.
I think you forget that we wake up and see the same news as you do.
We hear about the shootings,
The violence and the poverty,
The horrible, awful things in the world, too.

Neuroscientist Schedule

    When I was younger I believed I could become a neurosurgeon, I thought, that sounds cool, that’s my goal in life.

The alarm is screaming at me, continually beeping it's mildly anger inducing message into my head. I have to get up. When I wake up, I wake up like an angry pikachu.

My craziest dream is not to walk on the moon, 
or even to become a famous singer. 
All I want in this instant, 
the future I imagine for myself 
that I’m excited to work towards,
is to live in Sweden. 

I am very good at snowboarding, dancing, running, drumming, acting and most things that I do.

Hello YWP people,
I haven't written in so long! I'm hoping to write a lot of poems in September as opposed to August where I wrote almost nothing :).
