    High School Low

    The world is buzzing around me,
    but I cannot seem to care.
    The chaos that surrounds me
    is a snowflake in the air.
    I walk along this lonesome hallway
    that is fulled to the brim.
    Everyone seems to come my way,
    as the lights begin to dim.
    I am frightened in this sanctuary,
    where joyful voices can be heard.
    This burden I am left to carry
    is my only connection to the herd.
    The greatest years of my life,
    or so they all believe,
    Turns out to be a terrible strife,
    from which I long to leave.

    Beautifully emotional — poetry got me through this period of my life also. Write "all" of your thoughts down, leaving nothing out .

    Dont be in a hurry to grow up, but keep the grip of your talent tight.

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
