        I have several inspirations, my first intial inspiration was this poet called Adisa who came to our school in April 2003 to work with us on poetry. He was the one who first got me into poetry and I realised that I could write about anything. Adisa was so cool I remember and he made me realise what I could do with my talents also he was working on spoken poetry and I thought that was such a good idea because you can just play it whenever and it's nice to hear the poets voice because he had such passion in his voice. His influence of spoken poetry is still with me today because my style is spoken poetry as if you're listening to me as i

~Lost~ Today you said I seemed lost If only you knew what I've felt And knew what today was Maybe you'd given me extra help. ~Plea of a Fragile Mind~ HELP! I CAN'T WRITE THERE IS TOO MUCH ON MY MIND PLEASE LIFT THIS BOULDER I'LL WRITE WHEN I FIND THE TIME. ~Fragile Mind~ Fragile mind Precious time If only I could find a sign Lost Hope Can't cope All this pain does is make me choke. Blame myself? Required help Needed as I reach out to anyone else.

Of all the people, I've ever met You're the one I'll never forget You've given me courage, fulfilled every last need But most of all - you've set me free.

When no one else is watching People act caring and real They come across geniune They don't hide how they really feel. They let their guard down And they show their true feelings I love watching other people together Their presence isn't deceiving. We see them as they are We see the ones we love We see them with other people However this isn't enough. For them to be stuck And there's not much you can do or say All you can do is watch And have fingers crossed that they're okay.

Paranoid For myself For others But really for the unknown Of what could happen And what may happen. Paranoid about death, Loved ones, Life, What am I going to do with my life? My goals & my ambition Many go through the same as me But do we all make it? Make something of ourselves? Make our every wish come true? When are we really that comfortable with life to achieve? I'm paranoid for the sake of my life I'm sorry if it's my fault But paranoia strikes everyone at some point Paranoid about exam & exam results Paranoid about death Paranoid about depression Paranoid about being paranoid It's a never ending circle Once we

I believe in people If you make a plan to overcome all obstacles Thrown in your way, Some you aren't even aware of, To achieve your ambitions & goals Then I believe you'll make it. If that willpower to achieve is within you Then there's no stopping you. I believe we all have that willpower deep within us We just need that spark, That inspiration, To set if off To give us the courage to stand up for ourselves To believe & achieve our dreams That we can only imagine, In secret.

Not everyone is going to like you Not everyone is going to be your friend. But think about it That means that Not everyone is going to hate you And not everyone is going to be your enemy. Our friends count as one of our most important assets We don't have to be friends with everyone It seems so easy to forgot who are real friends And who are just acquaintances We only realise the line between friend & acquaintance when something major happens When we need them, We need their support & love to get through. The real friends are the last ones standing Helping & comforting you through every last day However our acquaintances run &

I always asked too many questions Until I found my answer, YOU. You were the answer to my problems, My fears, My worries, So now I don't need to worry Or fear Or face anything alone You're my answer to life, You're my saviour And a blessing. Now if you ever need to question life I'll be your answer.

I wake up everday day Unsure how to feel Ungreatful? Thankful? Are these feelings even real? Sometimes it's too hard To face each day with these demons I can't copt with this burden It's prevented me from breathing. I can't see straight Everything's too bleak The glass is half empty And happiness I cannot find nor seek. I've lost all emotion Numb to feelings No need to open up I've lost the sense in all dreaming. So farewell all This life is too hard to handle & calculate Another day & I'll go crazy I'm filled with utter self hate.
