What is beauty
Beauty is the way you act
How you were kind
Being beautiful
Dont try to impress people with looks
Beauty can be found in people that are different
You are considered beautiful if you help
People that are beautiful are talked about
For their kindness
Their compassion
And their deeds
People should think you are beautiful
Because you care
Not because of your outside
But the size of your heart
Make yourself beautiful
Give a child a hug
Pick up trash
Change the way others live
For the greater good
Change the world
Music
Noise
Roaring in my ears
Then nothing
I am in my own world
Just me
and my music.
My heart
my soul
music.
We become one
my movements become fluid
My hands
moving grace,
start to play
out
my soul.
Music,
my poetry
with notes like words
writing
playing,
my feelings.
This is me,
who I truly am.
I can be myself.
Music
is from my heart.
Slowly
softly
I play.
my thoughts come out
my music.
I am alone,
no one can tell me
who.
to.
be.
I just play
thats all I can do.
I am playing
hardly aware
my hands are moving.
Sometimes,
tears falling,
rolling,
down.
Tears become music,
soft,
flowing,
sou
Eyes
They hold everything
A window into your thoughts
Your eyes hold joy
Sparkling in the light
dancing spirit
sorrow
drowned in tears
seeing the feeling in those eyes
makes me want to throw my arms around you
Anger
The energy of rage
Can pierce anything
Eyes
your eyes
Explain everything
Let us talk
Without noise
This is my world
where I go in dreams
where the smell of rain
flits on the breeze,
but never do drops fall
from the sea of blue
under a blanket of stars.
Only you can go there
to your private sanctuary,
where your thoughts
wander about
where your spirit is free
to soar above
the grassy fields
and dip its wings
in the cool dawn.
This is my refuge
my quiet place
to be alone
where the sun shines
on the ocean,
encasing the world
in golden light.
Let your imagination
take you there
where you can be
who you want
to.
be.

Glass prison
Soundproof walls of glass
Enclosing you
Letting you see the world
But not participate
This box
Holding me in
Keeping me from doing
What I need to do
All people see is you
They dont see the cage
Surrounding you
The only thing they hear is
What they want to
And you must obey them
They see someone who will be like them
Someone to succumb to sameness
And go with the crowd
Held in a glass confinement
Break free from your limits
Dont do the same thing as others
Be your self
Dont end up trapped in your own prison.
by Caroline
Sitting on the cool grass
a green carpet
dotted with yellow.
Light fluffy clouds
rolling across the blue sky
the light wind
blowing past us
making our hair fly around
as it carries our giggles away
sun
warming us
its rays making us lazy
as we talk and share secrets
an oak tree
providing us shade
as we rest
with our backs aginst it
Having you beside me
to enjoy this beautiful day
with my friend

My wings are clipped
I cannot fly
I am not free
To soar above
I am not free to be myself
I live in a world
Where you have to
Look and act a certain way
My song is different
I fly higher
My wings are a brighter shade
My wings are clipped
I cannot fly
I am not free
To soar above
I want to express my feelings
to be what I want to
to have my own personality
not to be a clone of others
I want my voice to lift up
To sing my heart out
In my own style
To fly north
Instead of south
My wings are clipped
I cannot fly
I am not free
To soar above
