Favorite Quote:
"Help me mother, save me father. Keep me from fading away. Send me hope. Send me love. Remind me your not far away." The quote can mean whatever you want it to, but to me, it's about God, Our Father, and Mary, Our Mother.

Can you see my pen?
Slipping, silently, soundlessly
over my paper?
This pen symbolises a dream.
My dream.

My dream of writing.
Pieces of stories,
books scattered,
they inspire me but,

So many people put me down
And I am anticipating, antsy, and needing
answers for reasons why.
I need the help, the dream to keep dreaming,

The pen to keep
slipping silently, soundlessly,
over my paper.
The pen to keep
symbolising a dream.

The author's comments:
Oddly enough I wrote this poem while taking a literature test on poetry. This poem is a favorite of many that are close to me, hopefully it will be yours too.
