A couple of days ago, I lost one of my favorite teachers. Alicia G. Sarmiento When I was in grade school, she has been a huge influence. I always looked forward to the things I learned from her. I didn’t really like school, but I loved learning, and the things I learned from her have made a huge impact on me. I’ve always looked up to her. For me, she was next to perfect. I loved her not only because…

The nights that were spent in…

I have lost all sense of thought, somehow; I can see them all leaving. It’s all a sad and tragic fate With nothing left to do but wait. Nothing else left to feel but hate.

Read moreI wrote this poem when I was fourteen, which makes that 11 years ago. I think I was about to go through a bad break uo when I wrote this. That’s why there’s a feeling of an impending heartbreak when you read the poem. Anyway, I hope you still enjoy it. So This is Goodbye It started out so fine; I’m yours, and you’re mine. We didn’t care about anything. We forgot about everything. It seemed so perfect before. But…
