A Poem about Love

Love is like a dove,
As it soars up above.
Malicious hunters on the ground
Can shoot the little birdie down.

Love is like a rose,
Developing beauty as it grows.
But out in the open, the rose lies
Where it is plucked, withers and dies.

Love is like honey and milk,
Made of texture smoth as silk.
But as rapid as drying ink blots,
It curdles and churns, sickeningly rots.

Love is like a smile,
The cheery glow is worth the while,
But when it fades,
Upon razor blades,
It disappears
Into our darkest fears.

Love is like the mind.
Everchanging, unstable,
Unsure, and unreliable.

Never trust the dove,
For there will always lie a hunter,
Watching with prying eyes.
Waiting for the grave where lovers lie.

Teachers

Out of the numerous things I loathe in this world, one of the top factors is definitely teachers.

What exactly do I despise about them? Well, what is there to like, in the least? Sure they may seem like caring, compassionate friends, but what about when they turn around and turn you in for the smallest thing? Would you still adore them then.

My school is a perfect example of why I hate teachers. Shall I list a few reasons?

1) They demand respect, but never earn it.

2) They abuse their 'authority' and seem to think that just because they have more wrinkles than us, they're automatically 'Godly'.

3) They claim that we can trust them, and then go around spreading lies and rumors about you. (Ever thought that your buddy blabbed on you? Not exactly)

4) If you're 'alternative' (e.g Goth, Emo, Punk, etc.) you are automatically scum in their eyes.

5) They may say that they're unbiased and open-minded. Try reminding them of that when they're trying to shove a Bible down your throat!

6) They're NEVER above blackmail.

7) If someone's saying stuff about you, they won't ask for your story. Next minute, BAM! Suspension.

There are countless other reasons, but these are some of the main ones. Face it, they're old and stuck in their own ways, unable to modernize their daily routine, and fit in with ever-changing society. Those that act 'hip' and 'cool' are perhaps the worst liars out there, because you would never in a million years suspect them of being a backstabbing betrayer.

Darling, you better start believing, or else you're school days are going to be one big mess of betrayal, deceit and fakes. Then again, isn't that what High School is all about?

Long live the Liars.
