You know that feeling
where you have
everything
to say
but no words to say it with;
or the color of
the clouds
that fill the sky
just above a sunset;
or the smell that you only
notice
when you’ve been away
from home a long time?

Well, they rhyme with orange.

It's rare that a poem captures the essence of poetry itself so well. Great job.

The truth is that at some point, everyone&#039;s going to hurt you. You just have to decide who&#039;s worth the pain.<br /> <br /> Some say having something to lose is what makes you vulnerable. I believe that having something to lose only makes you stronger.
