Amanda Eckols Poems

mother dear oh how i love you
more than you'll ever know
mother sweet protector
you have grown a gaaden of eden
...

Please Reed, if you care
You would respect my space
You wouldn’t judge all my mistakes
Please Reed, if you truly want to
...

For all the worries in the world
My seem so small
For all the love in the world
I have no at all
...

Judgment is a fire
A useful tool
To better our self
And those who aren’t fools
...

to fuel the soul
I feed the fire
that haunts the heart
passion, desire
...

I’m old enough to know what is love
So what is love?
I’m just young enough to believe
Its that feeling in your heart
...

There are some people who live life in fear
unaware they are already dead.
There are some people who live life in tears
unaware of what it means to smile
...

Indefinitely Lonely
I don’t know when it will end
The world will pass on by while I'm alone
stuck in a dark room
...

My teacher calls me a poet
She tells me to write
And shows me examples
Of just how to be
...

In the world I live in I am not an active member
I sit back and watch as they destroy MY world
I've been plucked from my home forced into a mold
I am not myself, my actions are not my own
...
