“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.” -Marilyn Monroe


Hearts are broken,
Tears are shed
My heart stops beating,
I’m undead.
Pain still travels,
Through my veins
Leaving me in sorrow
as a I’m bathing in shame
But I know I need to
try harder work harder
keep on moving on.
Keep laughing keep smiling
Try to make it strong
I’m looking out my window and I think of you
Wandering in the snow
All alone in the world
Keep a smile on your face
Keep it pasted in place
Don’t you worry about a thing
You know you’re still my diamond ring
Keep your head up in the clouds
Don’t ever let their words fill you with doubt
Keep a smile on your face.
Keep it pasted in place.
Time passes by,
As we age.
People change and they may never
Ever be the same.
It’s not as easy. Oh.
As you may think
Just to run from
To close up
All the pain inside of me.
But I hope that you’re still strong.
Even though you’re
Out there alone
Please keep a smile on your face.
Keep it pasted in place.
No need to worry about anything
You’re flawless like a diamond ring
Don’t take your head out of the clouds
You’ll never love the world if you come down.
Keep a smile on your face.
keep it pasted in place.

Hey Emily <3 I love it when you comment on my work. I know life's been busy but it means so much to have you take your time on me. As i said before, you are an inspiration!! I wrote this in the seventh grade and never had the guts to share it. but i've healed somewhat and reading some of your sentimental poems inspired me to reveal this one. So i thank you!!!-Caramel Kisses

Thanks creative writer. I bleed out my happiness, sadness, pain and all emotions into my work. it means so much to know that it can be felt by readers miles away such as yourself. I won't stop writing and i hope you don't stop reading lol. what mistakes did I have and how can i correct them? -Caramel Kisses

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.

Caramel, never stop believing that you do have such a talent and greatness in you; because you do. You really do. Your poem is absolutely, amazing and wonderful. Never stop believing; I know your dreams will come true. I love you, Caramel. You are a amazing and wonderful person and writer; know that and believe that, because you are. Thank you, thank you so much for sharing this.

so far I have read three of your other pieces, and they are brilliant.  they are all touching, and all make my want to cry.  that is good in a way.  It looks like to me, they are all true; all from what is going on in you life.  That always makes a writing better.  And it always makes it harder to write,  Thank you for taking your time to make this piece, and I'm sure all your other pieces.  You are amazing in what you do.  There are a few mistakes, but there always is, even in the most famous books and peoms.  If this is really going on, Hold on tight, and don't let anything drag you down.  I don't know you,besides your writings, but I really do hope for the best of everthing.
