New Poem.

Horse Owner

Restricted by my walls,
So closed in;
I'd rather be mucking a stall.
My bones aching for freedom,
For feeling the wind blow in my hair.
My lungs gasping;
wanting the fresh, crisp outdoor air.
My heart lunging,
wanting to hear the hooves of horses as they imprint in the proudly recieving earth.
My eyes stinging,
head spinning from all this need.

As I approach the gate,
I see a lovely little face.
A small smile spreads as you nuzzle up against my hand;
As your owner realizes how joyous I seem.
I play with your long forelock, looking into your eyes;
Feeling your warm breath against me.
Slowly, I exhale
Realizing this is real.

Realizing that your owner is kind enough,
to let me come see you and your friends once a week.
Realizing that your owner sees that love, that passionate fire in my eyes.
She can clearly see I'm in my element,
That I'm content and calm.
She can clearly see, a bit of her, in me.

Oh, I am so thankful for your owner.
For she has given me the gift of happiness,
She has such compassion, such a loving nature.
Truely a horse women is she, for she is letting me be one as well,
With her by myself, I'm sure I can be me.
For she is a loving horse owner,
and I'm a young, passionate,
Horse lover.

Two equestrians that understand the bond between
Mankind and horses,
What else could you need?

Oh, Lovely horse owner, is thee.

Yes, it's about riding at Robin's, and all that.
I really like Robin.
She's an amazing person.
She got her first horse when she was 38, and she learned everything she knows about horses, by herself, through trial and error.
I've learned from being around barns, and working in them and riding at camp and all.
So, I am lucky, because by the time i get my horse and everything, I'll have lots of knowledge and all. I'll still have stuff to learn, but I'll figure it out.

I'm sort of hoping the next 14 days will go fast for me, I think they will. Highschool is already moving pretty fast.

And hopefuly, my mom will remember the camera this time, or Robin will have one this time xD Cuz, they both didnt have one last time. So yea. =]

School is acutally pretty good. I'm getting used to getting up so early. I have homework every night so far. I like walking home, but Kendra could always take me home if I wanted, cuz some days, my stuff is just too heavy.
I get my PT Rotc clothes tomorrow, and later on this week, I'll get my boots and my cami's [short for camoflauge uniform].
I really like my debate teacher, tomorrow I have to give a speech on who I am. It's one of my course requirements. I've done all my homework, I want to graudate on time, and do well in school.
I'm striving to acheieve. Even if the only life I have is, doing homework, riding horses, volunteering at CIRT, and singing, then so be it. It soundslike a happy life to me. That's fine. I've never been much into the party, popular scene. So why start now? I won't. I will not let other people get in my way.

I'm sort of like this song:
No Reins - Rascal Flatts

She left that loser in a dust cloud
Heart in his hand, chin on the ground
Cried her last tear for that clown
She can see a little clearer now
She said, "Oh, oh, I gotta go and find me"
Oh, oh she found the strength to break free

CHORUS
Like a painted wild mustang
Flyin' out across the open range
Finally gets to live her life that way
No fear, no fences,
nobody-no reins
No reins

All she's ever felt is held back
She says, "It's kinda nice to hear myself laugh"
She's gonna do a lot more of that
She's makin' plans and makin' tracks
She said, "Oh, oh I gotta go and find me"
Oh, oh she found the strength to break free

Repeat Chorus
Oh, oh she's learnin' how to let go
Oh, oh whichever way the wind blows
Oh, oh she's learnin' how to let go
Repeat Chorus Twice
No reins

But I know when to ask for help, and when to listen, and when to pursue.
I am me, and that's all I'll ever be =D
