Keep_Smiling


Hey Guys(: So I wanted to update mah blog with a new spotlight poem(: Forgive me if mah spotlight poems are not the best, considering I make it up as I go along with it on the spot(: Hope yuh dig it:)
Keep_Smiling
I dance around with my head in the clouds;
I stay up there to avoid the crowds.
Through all of the spite filled deceit;
I manage to land steady on my feet.
Although people keep conspiring;
I shall always keep smiling.
I'll keep my head up against the irresistible frown;
I'll stand tall when people try to bring me down.
I'll glue my heart down to my hopes;
I'll pull tight my dreams by their ropes.
I'll shower my soul in determination;
I'll power my conscience with inspiration.
I'll fly down my glitter path;
Assemble my troops of anti-wrath.
I'll conquer each goal of mine;
And I'll sew up my tampered mind.
I'll blow some luck over each soul dying;
And I will always keep smiling.

Fit_The_Mold


Hey so I wanted to write another poem today, but it's a spotlight one and I hope y'all like it:)

Fit_The_Mold
Was I what you wanted;
Was I what you hoped for.
Or am I a disappointment;
Just another thing to ignore.
I try to conform;
To become what you so desire.
I try to change myself;
To throw the old me in the fire.
I'll try to bend who I am;
To fit the mold.
The mold you created;
But how? I was never told.
I'll twist my mind;
Shape it to fit your thoughts.
I'll reconstruct my heart;
To succumb at your retorts.
I'll melt away my emotions;
My feelings, I shall fold.
I'll reset myself;
To fit the mold.
-Saara

P_U_P_P_E_T_E_E_R

Hey Guys, I wrote this poem at school when I was supposed to be doing Arabic (But it was on work I knew so its ok ^_^) I hope yuh like it:)

P_U_P_P_E_T_E_E_R
In the shadow of despair;
You'll find my heart lying there.
With its broken stuttered beat;
Searching for a retreat.
And in the whispers of hate;
My soul starts to dissipate.
My conscience is erased;
And my mind gets all dazed.
I'm your sacrificial lamb;
And you create your scam.
Watch me disintegrate;
And burn in your hate.
You're the evil puppeteer;
Watch me fall and writhe in fear.
When I rise, you pull the string;
And watch a new fall begin.
-Saara

The_Lyrics_Of_My_Soul

Hey guys, I have fallen in love with the song Monster by Paramore, the lyrics are phenomenal and the tune is catchy I LOVE IT!! Anyway since I was in the word game mode (kinda) I decided to write a poem. Hope yuh dig it (out its grave?) (What does "dig" it actually mean?) :)

The_Lyrics_Of_My_Soul

Songs written with their heads in the gutter;
Sex and drugs are their bread and butter.
Love songs written based on human aesthetics;
Other than raw emotion or classic romantics.
Boasting their earnings through rhymes;
With a backtrack of a tune that is sublime.
It infects the masses' brains;
Drags them down to the drains.
Polluting their thought;
With each new track bought.
Spurring them onto drugs;
Turning them into thugs.
Enticing their sexual hunger;
Turning them into an unstoppable monster.
Songs written with their heads in the dustbin;
Raw emotion lost in the shadow of sin.

My_Prerogative


Hey guys thought about an idea for another poem and I am going to make one up based on that idea right now... I hope yuh like it.:)
My_Prerogative
I am in control of my fears;
In control of my tears.
I'm in control of my voice;
I can make my own choice.
Say all you want to about me;
I still rise above harm-free.
Try to break me down;
I don't even bother to frown.
Go ahead and be negative;
How I live is my prerogative.
I steer clear from wrong;
Through my falls I stay strong.
Point a finger at me and four point back at you;
So think more carefully about what you say or do.
Hypocrisy is a disorder;
So please don't cross that border.
I don't worry about how you live;
Because that's your prerogative.
-Saara

M|E|D|I|O|C|R|I|T|Y


Hey guys, just updating with yet another spotlight poem, hope yuh dig it :)

M|E|D|I|O|C|R|I|T|Y
Thought I was good enough;
Thought I could stay tough.
Thought I had what it takes;
To go full speed and forget the brakes.
The only obstruction on my sparkled road;
Was you and your destruct mode.
It burnt out the rubber of my dreams;
Ripped apart my hopes by the seams.
Made me settle for mediocrity;
And filled me with insecurity.
Stuck a bullet in my wishes;
Bombed up my inhibitions.
Broke and belittled my heart;
Took my soul and threw it with a dart.
Flushed all that I aspired to be;
And left me with mediocrity.

D_E_L_U_S_I_O_N_S


Hey guys, so I am enjoying writing spotlight poems and I've decided to do another :D hope yuh dig it:)

D_E_L_U_S_I_O_N_S
Cut me open and I pour Glitter;
Make me cry, instead I titter.
Break me down, I grow stronger;
Say you're right, you couldn't be wronger.
Shred my dreams, I dream on;
Eat my heart, I keep a spare one.
Tear my soul and wishes sew it back;
Mess with my mind and it shall stay off track.
Juggle my emotions, it will float away;
Corrupt my faith, it will never stray.
Chew my aspirations and it shall go bitter;
Cut me open and I pour Glitter.

S|T|A|T|E_of_W|O|N|D|E|R|M|E|N|T


Hey guys :) So another "spotlight" (on the spot) poem I am going to write right..now... after I finish this little introduction:) And I hope yuh dig/ like it! :)

S|T|A|T|E_of_W|O|N|D|E|R|M|E|N|T
I gave you my heart gift wrapped in my soul;
And you plunged a stake in it, leaving a gaping hole.
My emotions run all out, leaving my heart dry;
I gave up on my own judgment and on yours I would never pry.
I run dry of all love and trust;
They dissipate to ash-like dust.
With my heart and soul carved out;
There is no use to scream or shout.
The hollow space fills with disappointment;
As I sit in a state of wonderment.
Where my mind sails the ocean of my empty hopes;
And I the puppet, controlled by the waves ropes.
I don't fight against it I just surrender;
It's better than living in reality surrounded by fibbers.
I don't want to leave my wonderment state;
To sink in all of the hurt- my dreaded fate.
So I shall build my castle of dreams;
With free flowing streams.
I shall be in control of my own judgment;
In my state of wonderment.

K_A_R_M_A


Hey there 'peeps' (okay that was random)(--.)--> Hey guys, so I just wrote a poem and I want to upload it, so I'm gonna B-)[(--.) haha okay, more random], and I hope yuh like it :)

K|A|R|M|A
If I could control my sands of time;
I would never have crossed that line.
From who I was to who I've become;
Tripping over my trail of mistakes' crumbs.
It's true what they say about Karma;
It comes back around and causes worse drama.
Remorse plays it's role as well;
Killing you from the inside, causing you hell.
Karma eating me out from my conscience to my mind;
Remorse burning my heart that was often unkind.
That heart of stone melted out through my eyes;
Tears of remorse burning with my cries.
If I could control my sands of time;
I would never have crossed that line.

Christina_Grimmie_and_Demi_Lovato
















Hey guys, so I have decided to write another on the spot poem inspired by mah 2 favourite singers and I hope yuh dig it :)

A|S|P|I|R|E_T|O_I|N|S|P|I|R|E
Reaching for the stars without looking back;
Hearts running on hope always stays on track.

Faith sparkling in their eyes;
Keeps them flying above the skies.
Picking up the chips as they fall;
Always standing tall.
Positivity dancing in their souls;
Always rising from life's dusty holes.
With minds that shove out negativity;
That saves them from insecurity.
Keeping their heads high when they reach a down;
Always wearing a smile when they feel like a frown.
Gaining strength from their enervations;
This is why they're my inspirations.
-Saara

Update


So I just recently mailed my manuscript for my COMPLETED story (Alone In The Dark), on the 30th June, off for the Sanlam Prize for Youth Literature 2011 and I am waiting with a lot of angst for the announcement of the finalists, which will only be announced by the end of this year. In other news today Demi Lovato released her smashing single, Skyscraper, on iTunes and I simply love it, great sound and deep lyrics= EPIC, so check it out/ buy it- go crazy. Anyway I thought I'd write another on the spot poem just for yuh guys:) and I hope yuh dig it!

Lost In Transmission
Staring into the blackness of my mind;
Lying my fears aside where I can't find.
Trying to search for any sign of hope;
Till I can no longer cope.

Smiling at all that breaks me down;

Laughing at all my wasted frowns.

Facing everything I left behind;
All of the things I lost in time.

I lose myself in transmission;

Trying to complete this vision.

Of inner peace and contentment;

And break away from self-resentment.

I lost all connection now;

From who I've been and I vow.
To never be again;

Drowning in my own pain.

I will stand tall against my falls;

And be brave when I hit fail's walls.

-Saara Mowlana
