None

You're not another faceless name
You're not another nameless face
You're not another one of the same
You're not another waste of space
Why are you so blind
Why can't you see
We have a special bind
You're the only one for me

You are the only one
We can never
We can never be done
Don't you ever
Don't you ever set this sun
How can it be over
How can it be over when it has just begun

Feelings lit ready to ignite 
Trigger is pulled burst of inspiration
No sleep at night
Can't forget no matter how much desperation
It's a constant fight
A constant struggle
Wish I could just take flight
This life is a constant juggle 

Try to look at the bright side but it is dimly lit
Asleep with my eyes open
In the cold corner I sit
I was all tied up when you had me roped in
Try to find happiness through a hit

It gets better with every new morning
Smile gets a little bit bigger
Less and less mourning
Finger loosens up on the trigger

Try not to let writing become a chore
Simply open up the word pot and let them pour
No longer will I be a corporate whore
I'm starting the worlds next big movement 
Starting with my core

Conclusion

First of all Thank You all for reading and giving me feedback. I have benefited from this blog as much as I wanted to. Looking back I see it as a success.
I would also like to thank my father. He is a musician and one of the best writers I have ever seen. I think that's who I get it from even though he is better in my opinion.
I don't think I will be blogging as much now that it's not required but I will blog from time to time. If you keep reading then I will keep writing. For more frequent updates follow me on twitter @tristontheparr and remember always keep your head up. It gets better.

Over It

When you feel like you can't get any smaller
Stop slouching and stand a little taller
View the world from a different perspective
It sounds unreal but beleive me it's effective
Take some time off but then try to reconnect
Anything that went wrong try to correct

Make sure your day is one to remember
Granted that gets harder now that it's closer to December
There are only good things ahead
Bandage yourself up after you have bled

It is time to stand up
It is time to give yourself a life worth living
Its time to put on a smile
Because its time for Thanksgiving :)

The Letter

It was only a week ago, it was the truth that she received
I wanted her to read it but every day I was deceived
I asked her everyday but she replied that she didn't get around to it
Every second I thought to myself damn I blew it
Even at the darkest of time I thought "Life? Screw it."
I knew what would happen but I wish it went the other way
Now that it happened I don't know what to say
On repeat in my mind her words were being played
All I want now is for this feeling to fade
There are tears in my eyes but they just won't fall
I would give anything to be able to ball
Let the feelings out and let the run wild
The feelings are extreme and far from mild
Now words have been said 
The pain has been fed 
There is a spiral in my head
The letter has been read

She puts me into a deep depression
I loved her but with no succession
But even though, she is still the only reason I can smile
So I want to stay on her left and I want her on my right for quite a while.

A Fresh Start

Face it, life is rough
We were told it would be hard, but never this rough.
Adults would tell us life is unfair, but we never believed it.
We expected good news until we received it.
Life is full of decisions and who knows the right one.
We had already failed before we begun.

 We depended on adults like Dad, and Mom.
Now we are frightened because we are depended on.We used to feel so safe and protected.
Now we feel like our integrity has been ripped and disected.
In this game of life ther is not a strategy anyone has perfected.
So now just dust off your shoudlers clean and disinffected.

Take a stand for what you truley beleive.
Take the weight off your shoulders and enjoy the relief.
Shine before your rise.
Be able to help others when you here their helpless cries.
If you have truely hit rock bottom then there is nowhere to go but up.
So show the world what your made of and with joy you will erupt. 

Introduction

        My name is Triston Parr. I am 15 and a sophmore at Shawnee Mission West. I write about all sorts of subjects, but what I write most frequently are poems. That is what this blog will contain. I hope you enjoy reading my poems as much as I enjoy writing them. My goal is to put a smile on people that haven't smiled in a while.
      
 This is for the ones in a dark place. This is meant to brighten ones bad day. This is meant to help up those who have fallen. No one's life is perfect, but we can always try to smile.
      
 I am not in the best place in my life right now. This blog is for me as much as it is for you. Everyone has gone though a rough patch several times in there life. I hope this pulls us through it faster. I need to inspire some happiness into life, and hopefully if it works for me it will work for you.
Enjoy,
