Creative Writing- First 6 Weeks
A system of Haikus from a Sunday afternoon of reflective thought
Love is fleeting now.
We spend forever to find, Yet nothing is kept. Happiness is golden. Cherish the warmth it brings you. Relish in its glow. Sadness envelops. Drowning in your thoughts, you sink- Never to return. Presents of memory Fleeting, they fill your heart up. Yet quickly, they pass. Hope springs eternal. Wishful thinking for many, But words to live by. Marriage, unity Together means forever. Honestly loving. Champions of life, We climb the ladder higher. Scared about nothing. How do you feel sad? Does it creep into your heart? Does it swallow you? Lovely how spring blooms. Bringing life and joy to us. Spring, stay forever? Ask me a question, See if I care that you prod. But you won’t like it. Relationships sail, Far past the borders, faster. Love is paradise. Complexity mounts. One twist, two twist, I knew you. Bye Bye Sanity. Our minds like soft clay. Mold me something beautiful. Make it right, gorgeous. Beauty is complex. Beauty in your lovers eyes, That is the truest. Open the door please. I promise to let you in. Just be gentle. Ryan Jay Brown, mine. Seventeen is young, I know. Forever feels right. Popularity. Subjective, it knows no bounds. But those of our peers. Spend a life with me. Opportunity to love. A chance for freedom. Lazily, Max sleeps. He hears me type so loudly. But he stays by, still. Gus is playing now. Silly how one dog can be. Always full of spunk. Expressively, Babe. She cares not about much else. Just if you’re pleased. Permanently tired. Caffeine is my only aide. Permanent friendship. Friendship knows no judge. Simply ebbing and flowing, Blind to oddity. Rivalry is key. Without it would we be here? America, here? Think upon the hours. Do you regret where you’ve been? What weighs on you now? |

A send off for a friend.
To lose someone is a new sensation. To grasp it, you have to first understand where your emotions are coming from. But I can’t yet. You see, this is all quite foreign to me, these feelings of loss. Losing such an important person without ever getting the chance to say good bye, or nice to know you. Grieving in moments where you think of things only they did. I miss my friend Mike, more that word can describe. He was such a great man and for that I am thankful. Without much family here, he was like an uncle to me. He gave the greatest hugs, and always had a constant grin that lit up a room. He was involved in every play I’ve ever done at the Broadway Theater including my first time ever stepping foot on stage. He will be missed by so many, so very much. I can’t put my feelings into thoughts, just the memories he left behind. I miss my friend, but at least I now know I have someone else to watch over me.
