Even if I was Helen Keller…

February 13, 2010

I’ve seen a lot in life:

The sweet, sour, exciting, & apathetic.

I have seen love: the sweet in life.

I remember the passion

That my friends & family have shown me.

The one time in middle school,

Death was no match for the support

I have seen from my friends.

I have seen the sour: yes, there was hate.

I still feel the stinging words.

Though not said to me, I felt my

Mother’s pain that she underwent.

The hardest thing in marriage is the end.

I have seen that it affects everyone.

I have seen the anticipation: excitement wasn’t far.

Although it touches my nerves,

Competing is the best thrill of a lifetime.

Adrenaline coursing through my veins,

My squad and I all have the itching potential to scream.

I have seen the climax of the wait.

I have seen the apathy: the absence of all.

It sucks emotions away like a vacuum.

The everyday walking into school

Seems no different from the one before

It is not until the end in which

We will all see our lives molded from that in which we do subconsciously.
