Turbulence

By Rachelle Ann Ramos
Sept. 30, 2004

keep all you thoughts and murmurings inside the vehicle
don't stray from the course, you'll be experiencing turbulence
liars, cheaters, deceit and fear, playing a part in the bumps and bruises
turbulence, the weight of it in the air. like lingering smoke after a fire

the scraps and scratches, torn hearts blind eyes
all from this turbulence, not being free bur held down
forced to listen, molded into what others wanted
turbulence, from all those days dreaming and not going after it

all these shortcomings, missed catches, fouls life gone amiss
lost hopes because of being pushed in other way
swimming against the current of society
strapped down by the standards of life all you have ever felt was the turbulence

why haven't you been able to enjoy the ride? why haven't you been free?
is this the price you pay for everything you messed,
spilled milk...but you just couldn't let go
because you were always held down forced to face the onslaught of it all

not yet free, struggling with bindings around you
held you captive, was all your choices that caused everything
why is it some one else face painted over yours
thrown into the hurricane to face turbulence

thinking, wanderings, wallowing, pondering
how to escape the this massacre of what i've attempted to build
please stay in the vehicle and enjoy the ride
while you face the onslaught of turbulence.

About the author Rachelle Ann Ramos: I'm attempting to be an author, at any age writing a book is an amazing feat. But I bet it's harder when your just a highschool freshmen. I have always dreamed about being an author of an inspiring book in which teenagers can relate to. I certainly hope I can get through this let alone highschool.
