Sorry for nost posting yesterday but I was wrapped up within the crap that seniors usually tend to do, PREPARE FOR COLLEGE. I had to write up these SAT registraion forms and all this other mumbo jumbo stuff. So today i put up 3 poems from, yet again, the 3rd batch. Enjoy!


Ingenious:


An ingenious thought
Coming from a genius without a cause.
Thinking without a purpose,
Learning without a goal.

This genius lives for no other
But his own self.
He has nobody to care for,
And nothing to yearn for.

This genius, as much as he knows
He can never be content.
He can never be happy
Unless he knows everything,
Or at least thinks he does.

He lives knowing he knows nothing,
He dies thinking of the possibilities.
The possibilities of what could have been,
But was not because of his own ignorance.

An ingenious thought
Coming from a genius without a cause.
And because of this cause,
It was never showed to the world.

Thrown away into eternal nothingness.
Thrown away into the shadow of life.
This genius never to be known or heard,
Will die without a thought being spared.

This is the shame of the genius.
And it's all a part of being ingenious.




I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.
