Behind the Mask
Jonny tried to live a life of few regrets. In his head, he was a simple teen who had simple pleasures. Unfortunately, our dear Jonny was fooling himself. He was a more complex individual than he gave himself credit for and his needs exceeded him. If you had the ability to look inside Jonny’s head, if you could explore the archives of his inner thoughts and feelings, you would know just who Jonny really is. He walks the halls of school wondering what lives the people around him live. He spends his lunch watching kids eat alone and wonders why someone has to endure, what some call a social outing, in the lonesome. An overwhelming feeling of sadness comes upon him while observing. He contemplates what others think of him, but knows that their opinion has no value. He knows that who he truly is, is someone most do not know. He laughs and makes jokes with his friends, they smile, and share a few moments together. When he returns home, he does his daily routine, which is the norm of most teenagers. The one thing that seems to always be with him is his thoughts. Sometimes his thoughts catch up with him and he feels as if he cannot get them straight. Jonathan wishes he could spill his thoughts onto an isle and create a masterpiece with them, just so he can see the true meaning behind the mask.

hmmm very deep! but it's nice to see someone with compassion. too many people lack that these days! verrryyy interesting :)
sometimes I go on these reflections on life too. But when you can't get the answer, you still can't let it go like that.
And so you continue to ponder...
Sometimes I wish my life had a soundtrack running in the background. It'll be so cool. Haha.
i swear you read my mind.
amazing, again. (:
Thanks for the comment! You're a very talented blogger. And I assure you, if you go in the right direction to follow whatever dreams you may have (sounds corny, I know), there really IS hope for life after highschool. Granted you're exposed to so much more than you could ever imagine, but embrace it as part of growing up. You meet tons of people of all different persuasions, and you might even find that you click with some people that you never thought you would in highschool. But enjoy it while it lasts, because you're still at an age where you don't have to be completely responsible for your actions. I look forward to reading more of your posts.
This blog I could really relate to. Reminds me of the times at lunch at school where there's people who just sit by themselves, and I feel really sorry for them.
ur blog is really good. kinda wish mine seemed this important. you have a great talent, check out my blog too. I love to write poetry, even if it doesnt sound as nice as yours...... swoon much? lol im sry.
You sound like a very intelligent awesome young man. I only hope that there are more people in your high school with your same view on others. When I was in High School I was one of those people who sat alone sometimes. I moved into a new school in 10th grade and everyone already had thier friends. The difference for me, I think was that I didnt care if I had to sit alone. It gave me a sense of independance.
Keep exploring the questions that come up within you and journaling them. Its amazing and you'll find sometimes you'll answer your own questions while writing, and others, you'll realize you'll never get the answers to. :)
