The Forever Winter By Naomii Bott

THE FOREVER WINTER By Naomii Bott
Petaled Roses
Blooming Flowers
Winding breeze
Beautiful summer powers

Are gone when the cold winter comes
Turning light to dark
Freezing over warmth
Trees losing their bark

Yet summer never did come back
Neither did fall nor spring
Only winter scorches on
Our birds can no longer sing

Our hopes are fallen with the flowers
Their petals and our dream begin to die
Despair flowing on forever
No one stopping to wonder why

All we know is the time is near
The end the winter brings
We can all hear the deafening sound
Of the howl the wind sings

Winter brings snow and death
Both wondrous and terrifying things 
This curse we brought upon us all
The curse the forever winter brings

We all refused to live happy
We all had chosen saddening lives
So to punish us for doing this
Winter stayed with its colder knives

We brought this killing winter here
So please don't forget
I died with frozen tears,
Streaming down my face in cold regret

Why? By Unknown Author

WHY? By Unknown Author
Why are we so surprised when winter comes, 
Though it happens every year?
Why is change, though it happens constantly,
The one thing we most fear?

Why don't we stop to tell people how much we love them?
Why do we just assume they know?
And why do we hold onto things the most tightly,
When it's time to let them go?

Why do we wast precious minutes and seconds,
Doing unimportant things?
Why do we push off what we really should do,
As if we know what tomorrow will bring?

Why do we judge others to quickly,
But are reluctant to judge our own minds and hearts?
Why do we try to be just like others,
Hiding everything that sets us apart?

Why do we walk around laughing and smiling,
When we really want to cry and shout?
When we're bleeding inside, why do we never seek help,
And think death is the only way out?

Why are we sometimes blind to our own faults?
We're perfect, or so we claim.
We tell others to practice what they preach,
But do we do the same?

Why do we conjure up our own illusions,
To make the world seem more secure and fair?
Why do we stand dumbfounded when illusions shatter,
Though we're the ones who put them there?

Why are we often jealous of what others have, 
Though they might have less than us?
Why do we so often hide our feelings, 
From the ones whom we most trust?

Why do we judge others by what we see outside,
And never try to look within?
And when people judge us in that same way,
Why do we think of it as the worst sin?

Why is it we feel it's horrible to murder,
Or hurt someone in any way,
But we've no problem driving daggers into people's souls,
Killing them, slowly, and slowly each day?

Will we ever be able to answer these questions?
Will we not be able to change until we do?
And is changing even possible for us?
Do we even want to?

Last night was..........I don't know how to describe it. It was sad but amazing all at the same time. I wish I could explain it, but I can't. I can only say this:
George is the best friend anyone could ever have. Anyone who meets him knows this. He can make a room light up in a second, he's the most amazing person I've ever met. He understands and he actually cares. He wants to help people and loves people. He's optimistic but he's still human and gets depressed. I don't think he truly understands how happy he makes people, how happy he makes me. More than happiness, possibly more than joy. If I had the choice to never leave his side, I wouldn't. I love being around him, more than anything else. I have fun with him, even if we're doing absolutely nothing and being lazy. Seeing him makes me smile. There isn't a single thing I don't love about him, not one. He's not perfect, but I love his imperfections and his quirks. He's wonderful and outstanding. I've known him for about three months and I can't imagine my life without him, I don't want to. I'd go through some serious George withdrawals. And I love him. I love him with my whole being. Right now, he's my everything. I just want him to be happy. I want him to know and understand that he deserves happiness more than anyone I've ever known. He's the one person I know that doesn't deserve pain or hurt in his life. I know he will and does and I know his life will always have challenges and problems and that he's going to be hurt and sad, but he deserves so much more. He deserves every happiness I can possibly think of. He deserves the respect and love of all those around him. All those girls who ever gave him up I can honestly say made the biggest mistake of their life. Letting him go would be impossible. He's the one man that is actually worth fighting for. Anyone willing to let him go never understood what they had. He means the world to me. I miss him when he's not around even if we spent the whole day together. I wish there was more I could do to help him, to comfort him, to make him happy. I wish I could hug all his problems away, but I can't. I can try. No one, I mean no one, can ever replace George. No one deserves a happy ending like he does. He is the most wonderful person I know. I thank God every single day that he came into my life, and now that he has I hope he never leaves it. Because I will never let him go and I will never stop loving him. He means too much to me.

WOO!

Okay, last night I spent with my friend Destry, who is one of the most wonderful and beautiful girls I've ever known. She's sweet, funny, caring, loving, and a huge flirt/temptress. Haha, boys look out if you want to know Destry. :3 She's absolutely wonderful and one of my Best friends. The picture is Destry and me my senior year at our school when I had brown hair. Anyways, we sat out on my lawn and talked until she had to go home around 11:30 pm. Then George came over so we could stargaze. We spent the night stargazing, talking, cuddling, being best friends as usual until we fell asleep. Haha, we woke back up around 3:14 am and then he went home and I fell asleep again on my couch with a damp blanket because while we fell asleep outside it started to rain. Lol, it was great.
Anyways, today I slept a lot. I went to church with Puppy and then we went to his house and skyped Abi who is away at college :( But it was great to talk to her and see her. Then he played a video game online with Abi and I fell asleep and more or less slept the rest of the time I was there. Oops....anyways, I came home and now I'm eating lemon cake with chocolate frosting. Win :3

Today I spent my morning with a beautiful girl named Nick. She was a freshman last year at my school when I was a senior. We became great friends when I realized how insanely similar we are. The picture is from last year when we baked green chocolate chip cookies together. Haha. She's great. Anyways, she came over and we walked all around my neighborhood and then we sat in the cemetery by my neighborhood and just talked for a while. We talked about a lot of things, how she's a sophomore now, the new teachers, our summers, we talked a lot about theater and all that gloriously wonderful stuff. I love this girl, she made my morning fantastic :3 And then one of my favorite movies, The Skeleton Key, came on TV after Nick left. Awesome day so far. My plans for the rest of the day are to, hopefully, see Puppy, then go to work, then see my good friend Destry after work. <3 We'll see how this day unfolds, YAY!

So Very Happy :3

Okay, that long car ride I thought I was going to hate ended up not being a long car ride. After half and hour my car broke down and the car is officially dead now. My Dad's friend took Jordan to his college and Puppy came and picked me up when the tow-truck came for my car. Yep. I then spent the rest of the night with Puppy. That boy is so great, he's my best friend. For good reason, too. I wish everyone knew him, there's no one else like him in the whole world. He changes people's lives. He gives a certain happiness to people that no one else can give. He makes me so very, very happy. Which is why tonight I was so filled with such joy. I can't imagine my life without my BMFFE. We'll be best friends for all eternity, I can guarantee it. He makes me so overjoyed :3

Driving/Long Car Rides

I hate long car rides.....but it's okay. This time I only have to drive around two-t and a half hours. Taking the boy that has been living with us to college. WOO! I'll miss him, he's become like my fourth brother. My twin bro, Tyler, is also going to college today but his college is four hours away and my dad is taking him. I'll miss him, too. I'm slowly losing my brothers...ish. Not permanent losing. My oldest brother left for college two years ago, then last year he went to Oklahoma on his LDS mission. Now it's going to just be my Mom & Dad, my little brother, Paul, and me. Weird...............anyways, time to start driving. Ew. Still, I love life!

What A Wonderful Night

Man tonight was great! The day was....okay. I woke up and got ready for the day. Then I read with my family like we always do in the mornings. Then I took my little brother to school, which is always fun because my little bro and I get along really well.
I didn't really start befriending my brothers until my oldest brother left for college and it hit me I should really develop a relationship with my siblings. So I started learning about my brothers and becoming their friends. Honestly, I'm closest to my little brother because we relate a lot and he goes through a lot of the struggles I did at his age (He's only two years younger than me, though).
Anyways, we have a lot of fun listening to music and talking every day when I drive him to school. So after that I spend the rest of my time eating on my couch and watching a very addictive how called 'Face Off'' which is just amazing. Then I got ready for work and went to work. Work was okay, I was hungry and in pain the whole time but whatever, I love my job and I adore the people I work with. :3
After work I went to see my BMFFE, Puppy. When I arrive he's playing a violent video game with one of his roommates. It was so violent I think it's my new favorite video game <3 HUZZAH! Then we skyped my BEEFFE and his girlfriend, Abi-Bird! We talked for a long while, then we read scriptures together and she went to bed. Then Puppy and I watched silly videos, hung out, talked, and played up until I had to leave.
One of the things I love about Puppy is he understands my irrational fears. Like, I'm afraid of driving at night because when I go out to my car, I always think there's someone underneath or inside it that will kill me. So he walks me out and checks my car with me so I'll feel safe driving home. Now that is best friendship :3 And on our way to my car we noticed it was kind of humid outside. It was almost midnight and it was dark and grey-black clouds blocked the sky. Multiple times lightning flashed and it was beautiful! I love lightning but my favorite is it's brother thunder. On my drive home I was so happy when it began to rain! I absolutely love the rain! It was quite a wonderful night
.................Too bad I left my phone at Puppy's house

Best Friends

HELLO! My Name is Naomi, but my friends call me Nom-nom, Nomi, Nommy, Noms or Nomi-Bear. I used to have a blog with my friends but eventually we all let it go. I decided to start another blog but this time I don't care if anyone reads it because I am making this blog specifically for me :3 About how much I love life and everything! The picture is of my two best friend in the entire world. First is George, we call him Puppy-George, Puppy-G, or sometimes just Puppy. He's my BMFFE (Best Male Friend For Eternity). In the middle is Abi, we call her Abi-Bird. She's my BEEFFE (Bestest Estest Friend For Eternity). The last one is me, Naomi. It's an old picture so I've changed. I don't have black hair anymore, it's now red. Abi and George pretty much still look the same as in that picture. Anyway, life is wonderful and glorious.
I met my Abi-Bird in 2008 at the beginning of our Freshman year at a performing arts school. We had a mutual friend, but weren't best friends until the summer after our freshman year. Anyways, we've been friends for four years (official on October 1st 2012) and now are both graduated. Nothing can come between us. She recently moved away for college but our friendship is stronger than ever.
I met Puppy last year when I started work. He had the same job in a different location. I became friends with someone at work named Steve, who happened to be his best friend. I met him a few weeks later. We knew of each other since then but didn't become best friends until two months ago (June 2012) when we "kidnapped" him on my birthday. Needless to say the three of us became the closest friends can get. We call ourselves the Trio of Doom and we love each other very much.
Not only are we amazing friends, but Abi and Puppy are actually dating. They began dating in June. After we kidnapped him for my birthday, we spent the next two days with him. then Abi and I left for California and the day after we returned they hung out alone and things just clicked. They happen to be the most adorable couple I've ever seen in my entire life and now that she's off at college they are trying long-distance.
Anyways, that's how I'll start this blog off. Nothing says how wonderful life is other than the two people who make me the most happy :3
