Oskar Erikson
we hand our hearts
to people
who know not, what they hold.

are we not the fools
who blame it's breaking
on those
who never knew what they held.

Ease your shoulders.
Relax those wrists.
Impress your elders.
Inspire those kids.

Engage your modesty.
Agree to progress.
Filter your honesty.
Emotions to suppress.

Don't look so down.
They're coming- inspecting.
Looking for the next crown.
Heir circumspecting.

Lost Poet
Who will hug your brother,
Who will walk the dog,
Who will help your mother,
And talk all night long,

Who will your best friend call,
When she's feeling down,
Who will be there for them,
If you let yoursef drown.

The Ensemble
is greater than any
Single
part.
Because:
If one Actor ***** up
they're a bad Actor.
However;
If the Ensemble ***** up
they're a bad Company.

Him.
He makes your heart race and your skin redden from the way he makes you feel.
He makes you smile when all you want to do is cry.
You want him.
But, so do I.
I want him too.
Probably as much as you do.
He makes my heart race and my skin redden.
He makes me smile when I wish I was never born.
But you have more friends,
better friends.
You have a bigger personality.
You're more noticeable.
"I saw him first." You always tells me.
I feel awful.
I know I should forget about him, but I can't.
You told me you wouldn't date for a while because you just had a breakup.
You always have somebody who wants to date you.
Always.
I never do.
So why are you doing this to me?
Let me feel.
I don't want to forget him.
He makes me feel.
The way he rolls up his button up shirts.
The way he teases others.
The way he sat there and listened when you rant.
You want him.
But so do I.
this is a real life experience. if anyone has any advice, please help me

Such pure smiles
Such enthusiasm
Such independence

So smart
So prepared
So organised
So sweet
And lovely

My daughter
You enter
A whole
New world

May your true spirit
Shine strongly
And your light
Burn brightly

May you glide
Into a world
Of joyful learning

May you thrive
