This love is always

Unerring eternally;

It will never fade.

A mist permeates

My senses, a weathered void

That conquers the dawn

Love is perfect pain;

A blade cuts the aching heart

That says: “I miss you”.

Music is an art

That demands your whole spirit —

Nothing else will do.

-by senior Sam Adams

A beautiful pain

A beautiful pain

It hurts to keep loving, but

you’re the exception.

Sushi

He flops like a fish

Hold him down for the entree

Dice him like sushi

Red roses still grow

Even though I don’t like you

So I’ll cut them down.

Coldness seeps through me

As I walk this lonely path

With Winter’s frost.

An icicle drips

The sound reverberating

With warm nostalgia.

– by senior Giana Apostoli

It’s Valentine’s day

No Valentine? No problem

Time to love yourself.

Love is not so cruel

We manipulate the rules

But it is no game.

The roses are red

Just like the ones I bought you

Scattered at your grave.

– by senior Adam Antonneau

______________________________________________

The feeling of love

Nothing makes you fall harder

You end up wounded.

Love is a bully

It takes your life and your money

That’s why I hate it.

All I have right now

Broken hearts and broken dreams

Nothing is the same.

Love has injured me

Nothing will be as it was

Before the storm came.
