Thoughtless, weightless,
Loss of face,
No longer mine,
Give me space.

Bellowing, like
Smoke I fly;
A wisp in wind,
Relieved sigh.

Don’t follow my
Solo foot-

Prints soon vanished
Under soot.

Seek not for me.
Give me space.

This was really just an exploration of poetry. Encouraged by my English teacher, I'd been given the chance to touch base with everything going on inside of me: thoughts, feelings, anticipation about college applications. It just flowed right out.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
