The Goal of Love
The end of April
Came the heartbreak
Between you and me.
It poured off and on
As we tangoed
Through the grassy plain.
You wore black and white
And soared through the air
From side to side.
Down 2-0 at half
Exhaustion took over.
As the whistle blew
A new half began.
One goal scored
After a minute in.
It went silent.
I think about the eerie silence,
It was a dreadful...

Be Who You Want To Be.
I am sick and tired of hearing people say bad things about my degree. Applied Liberal Arts is a general ed degree but it is an area that I am exceptionally good at. I am, and will be, a well rounded individual who will take on the world head on. I am not afraid of anything but failure, and if I don’t try then that is failing. So I just want you people to know that you must try to succeed....

Your Eyes Are Like The Ocean
I
The blue-grey of your eyes, are glistening,
yet they are as still as the ocean sea
on a calm early morning.
II
Ocean so full of life, at mid-day,
you seem to have many waves of hope
that flows in with the current.
III
As the setting sun sparkles, across the ocean,
the day is coming to an end and tomorrow
you will begin a new day of persistence.

I am loving the weather outside. It is so lovely and nice. The sun is shining but it is not too hot. The heat, though, I know is coming. I am not looking forward to the heat. But I am looking forward to summer vacation. I am still going to take a summer class, but one class is better than five. A break is much needed. I don’t know about anyone else, but I definitely need a break.
I need...

“I miss the memories.
We were so young
And in love.
Even though I denied it.

– Another poem I did for my class. The ending is kind of harsh, but I didn’t really know what else to do for it. So it is open for ideas and changes. Poetry is always changing as it is. I love the study of poetry and my creative writing class has showed me the love of studying poetry. Maybe I...
“I regret to
Inform you,
That I have dumped
You for a reason.
You should not...”
– A short poem I wrote in creative writing today. I think it is quite good. It is following the style of William Carlos Williams and his poem called This Is Just To Say. It was inspired by an old boyfriend, although the events aren’t quite true with what the poem reads it is still something that...
Indecisive
I am a junior trying to figure out my way in life. I am concerned greatly with what program I should enter into graduate school. It has been a thorn in my side this whole year. I have no idea where I should go… I have thought of either English or Law School but they seem very plain and don’t seem to fit me. I want to do something I like and possibly love because it will be very hard...
A New Beginning
Welcome to my blog. My name is Taylor and I am a junior at the University of Central Oklahoma where I am currently pursuing a degree in Applied Liberal Arts with two minors in Latin and English. Graduation is just a year away and it is driving me insane. One would think that I should be happy and rejoicing this part of my life. Yet I am worried about graduate school. Should I go? Where should I...
