61. Every Day Changes You
- By Vic Lejon
- Published by Family Friend Poems December 2020
every day changes you
sometimes a lot
sometimes barely
but life never stops

every day changes you
sometimes a lot
sometimes barely
but life never stops
it evolves
and you are growing
even when you can’t see it
you’re doing the best you can

62. The Marching Heart
- By Beau Taplin
- Published by Family Friend Poems January 2021
I believe the beating in our hearts
was put there to remind us
that even when we feel alone in the world,
a part of us marches on,

I believe the beating in our hearts
was put there to remind us
that even when we feel alone in the world,
a part of us marches on,
that even at our lowest
we carry something inside of us
that we can lean on and turn to,
that even when there is no one else,
we always have ourselves.

63. The Girl I Used To Be
- By Stephanie Bennett-Henry
- Published by Family Friend Poems March 4, 2021
Try as I may, try as I do,
there are days when I wish
I could go back
to the girl I used to be

Try as I may, try as I do,
there are days when I wish
I could go back
to the girl I used to be
and tell her about
all the roads to avoid.
But if I did that
I may not have become
the girl I am now,
and I am too proud of her
to risk taking even one piece
of her journey away.

64. Snowman
- By Lanie Harper
- Published by Family Friend Poems March 2009
I wrote this after a trip in the snow with my best friend.

As our feet sink in the snow
We build a snowman
No one will know
For the snow will melt away

As our feet sink in the snow
We build a snowman
No one will know
For the snow will melt away
As the night turns to day

65. That Feeling Of Forever
- By Laura
- Published by Family Friend Poems August 2008
I want that feeling.
You know?
That feeling of forever.
So simple,

I want that feeling.
You know?
That feeling of forever.
So simple,
Yet combined with everything
Love, lust, happiness, sadness
Everything.
But still,
I want that feeling.
You know?
That feeling of forever.

66. You Are Enough
- By Bethny Ricks
- Published by Family Friend Poems March 4, 2021
Along the way I have learned a tough lesson: even in my imperfection I am still worthy of love, someone’s time, and a consistent feeling of wholeness.
My value is not connected to perfection, strength, or my ability to weather a storm. Which means that even on those days when I struggle to show up or feel ill-equipped, I am still a woman of worth and value

You are enough
You have always been enough, and
You will forever be
Enough

You are enough
You have always been enough, and
You will forever be
Enough

no matter what you see
how you feel, or the lies you may
believe

67. Memories
- By Jane Kim
- Published by Family Friend Poems November 2015
This poem is about all our memories being there for us when we want to remember.

Poem About An Album Of Memories

Memories in my life fade away
As I replace them with others.
They are forgotten and stored away.
Although the memories are pushed to the side,

Memories in my life fade away
As I replace them with others.
They are forgotten and stored away.
Although the memories are pushed to the side,
They are safe so I may remember them in the future.
Our mind is like a book;
It writes down important things and keeps them between the pages forever.
Maybe our whole album of memories:
Our first steps, first love, first grief, and others
Were meant to be there for us to never forget.

Open heart and open mind,
On a journey of a lifetime.

Shoulders back, head held high,
Smile on. Ready...set...fly!

69. Childhood
- By Aniket Jangam
- Published by Family Friend Poems June 2016
While going through hectic times for a couple of years, my little mind lingered to the innocent, ecstatic days of my childhood, which provoked me to write up this short poem and many others like it about life, the changing times, the changing people, and the way it all affects us! I would love to be able to live our old days yet again and do the things we missed out in the past!

Missing The Simple Joys Of Childhood

Going back to the time, doing all that I want,
Just living up my life, getting all that I can't!

Great was the childhood, innocent were the smiles.

Going back to the time, doing all that I want,
Just living up my life, getting all that I can't!

Great was the childhood, innocent were the smiles.
Walking through the woods was better than today's long drive of miles!

Getting nostalgic at the sight of old places,
Feeling the magic of love, affection and kisses.

Wish I could be selfless and joyous once again
And forget the mess that ends up only in pain!

70. To Ashes
- By Robert Durdle
- Published by Family Friend Poems September 2015
This is a poem I wrote at a very young age when I was "green" and full of imagination.

Life Is Like A Fire

Life is like a fire.
If you can't control your flame,
You're bound to be burned.

Life is like a fire.
If you can't control your flame,
You're bound to be burned.

72. The Hand Of Fate
- By Beau Taplin
- Published by Family Friend Poems January 2021
From Beau's book Here At Dawn: Poetry and Prose.

There is no reason to feel troubled
if your path has not been made clear to you yet.
When you remain true to your spirit,
courageous in action,

There is no reason to feel troubled
if your path has not been made clear to you yet.
When you remain true to your spirit,
courageous in action,
and listen ever to the
small guiding voice in your heart,
you find the universe soon points out its place for you,
and then leads you there
gently by the hand.

75. Love Is Better Than Hate
- By Poppy Cooke
- Published by Family Friend Poems May 2009
This short poem personally tells me that life needs living to the fullest! I wrote this poem because of how I feel so strongly about people wasting their lives away when they have so much more they could be doing with their lives.

Poem About Living A Full Life

Don't judge a book by its cover.
Love is better than hate.

Life's too short to waste opportunities

Don't judge a book by its cover.
Love is better than hate.

Life's too short to waste opportunities
you have the chance to take.

One day you could be alive and the next you could be dead,
so keep your head held high with a big smile on your face!

76. This Is Who I Am
- By Megan R. Bentz
- Published by Family Friend Poems August 2016
I wrote this poem for my history class, and it expresses who I am in a way but also gives the reader a chance to see who they think they are.

Surviving A Difficult Time In Your Life

This is who I am:
I am a fighter.
I have a lot of baggage from my past.
I may have some experience and some wisdom,

This is who I am:
I am a fighter.
I have a lot of baggage from my past.
I may have some experience and some wisdom,
But I know there is a lot more to learn.
I will continue rising from the ashes
Until the end.
Nothing can stop me
From being who I am.
So who are you?

77. The Healing Power Of Mother Nature
- By Shelby Ensign
- Published by Family Friend Poems September 2020
The weight of life is much too heavy for us all at times. I’ve found nature to be one of the best healers for anxiety.

maybe the answer is simple,
and all along
there's been relief--
if the strands of your soul

maybe the answer is simple,
and all along
there's been relief--
if the strands of your soul
feel frayed and withered,
sit within the arms
of Mother Nature
and her quiet love
will mend them

It’s the simple things
that bring me joy
it’s being with you

It’s the simple things

79. You Already Were
- By Kirsten Robinson
- Published by Family Friend Poems September 2, 2021
You were beautiful
before they said, you are beautiful

You were smart

You were beautiful
before they said, you are beautiful

You were smart
before they admired your smarts

You were funny
before they laughed at your jokes

You were loved
before they spoke those three words

80. There Is An End To This
- By Blake Auden
- Published by Family Friend Poems April 28, 2021
I’ve struggled with my mental health for a long time now, and like anything, there are good days and bad days. But even at my lowest points, I try and remember the things I have already survived. I try and remind myself that every cracking sinew is just a moment in time.

Ultimately, no matter how desperate I’ve felt, no matter how unsurvivable the breakdown may seem, the surface of the water is always reachable, eventually. Sometimes you just need to hold your breath a little longer.

There is
an end to this,
I promise you.
Even when

There is
an end to this,
I promise you.
Even when
it feels like
you’re breathing
Lungfuls
of water,
the surface
is closer
than you think.
