a kids toy box
I am the box lonely and sad. I sit there every day in storage waiting for someone to use me. I am so lonely it’s sad. My sadness is crazy because I have nothing to do and I cry each night.

I am one of those boxes’s what kids use for toys and stuff but I haven't being used for a long time. I am so colorful and soft. I have fuzz all over me. I used to be loved and now I am not.I wait and wait until I will be used again. You see all the kids have grown up so I am not used. I am waiting for the new baby to come so can I be used again.

Oh wait my friends the broom is here to keep me company. He is so tall and nice. He likes to make funny jokes but he hasn't been around lately because he has been used a lot so there is no small stuff on the floor.I am sitting waiting then finally I hear something... It's the new baby!!! I am finally going to be used again. So I sit there and wait until they come and get me I am so ready to be used again. It has been so long since the last time they used me.Finally they got me out and started to put the babies’ toys in me. I am so happy that I am turning red. I sit there while the baby sleeps and I am thinking I am so glad that they remembered me! I am jumping up and down for joy. My head starts to spin thinking about how glad I am. I am all neat and dust off so the baby is clean. A clean baby = a happier me.

All this time I have waited I am so happy now. I love how the baby digs through me to find her favorite toy and to find her stuff animal. I love how she rubs her hand on the fuzz and how she hugs it to. I like how she laughs when she sits on the top of my lid. I am just happy and glad that I have a kid to use me again. I am so happy I am crying. Each night when I watch her go to sleep I sing in my head a lullaby that reminds me of her. So soft, sweet, cuddly, and most of all her sweet little face.

I have a fear of fitting in with the right crowd. You see i only have 2 or 3 friends but thet are all from different groups and i am stuck in the middle. I never knew what to do about this even tho i keep trying.

I always had this fear and i dont know how i am going to get over it. I think and think all day and night but it never comes across me. My daily plan is:

7:30> wake up
8:30> arive at school
11:00> think of ways to make more friends that I fit into
12:00> eat lunch
4:00> arive at home
6:30> sit in my room and write poems
11:00> go to sleep

This is what i do in a day (a.k.a everyday). I really wont to find a group that will accepet me for who i am and that I dont get stareotyped. Some people in my old school thought i was emo becuase i wear black alot. Yeah i mite be but i dont do those stupid stuff what everyone says they do.

I really wont to try to face my fear but I dont know how to do it. I have asked my mom but she says be yourself and the people who want to be your friend is your friend but the people who call you names and stuff is just jeoulse of your looks and how you are smart.

I lisened to my moms avice and i tryed. Day one nothing happened. Day 2 still nothing but by day 3 i finally made 5 new friends and thet are all cool. They understand me and who i am.
I think they are the most greatest friends a person can have! They are so funn to hang around with and they are funny.

When you think about it over coming your fears is the best way to go. Don't always be scared of your fears try to overbecome them. Your fears are always going to be there unless you do something.

My new daily plan:
7:30> wake up
8:30> arrive at school
11:00> hang out with friends
12:00> eat lunch
3:15> school ends
4:00> arrive at home
6:30> sit in my room and write poems
8:30> chat to friends on msn
9:00> have some tea befor bed
11:00> go to sleep

My new daily plan is the plan that i am going to stick with. I like it and that's how my day is always going to go for now on.I have learned from all of this that over becoming your fears is the best way to go because you never know what is out there and who the people are to help you out and give good advice to help you overcome your fear(s). You just got to trust others that are there for you and to help you believe that fears are really not that bad.
