A Pencil
A pencil
You write with it
You scribble with it
You chew on it...
Sometimes
You try not to but when you are nervous it is always there
It's your trusty pal
For writing to a pencil pal
You break it out of anger
Then tape it out of sorrow
When it gets dull
You sharpen it
Until all you have left is a stump
A stump of what it used to be
A pencil
You go to find a new one now
What do you find?
A pencil made out of plastic?
That never runs out?
No thanks
I think I will stick with my pal
Stick Together
As a group
We stay in a loop
There is no mountain to high for us to climb
There is no no river we can not cross
If we stick together through the up's and down's
We can take the heavy pounds
That life can bring
Raining down
Help each other
One another
A team, a pack, a group
However you call, we always need to stay together
Now and forever
Pushing Through.
You can give up so easily.
You can throw it all away.
Without a single thought,
You can lose your chance of this day.
The hard part?
Building the mentality to come back.
When you want something so badly,
But you're about to crack.
It takes a week to build a house of cards.
Only a split second to break it down.
Grit will get you through life.
Instead of being a victim of this count-down.
Spring Break
You might think Spring Break is a non-educational time
A time to have fun in the sun
A time that school doesn’t matter
But think again, your mind is actually climbing a latter
