Have I Changed My Mind?
What’s happening with me?
Why am I feeling so different now?
Why I am not interested in you anymore?
Have I changed my mind?
The feelings are so different,
I never look at you anymore.
I just don’t hope that,
I’ve stopped loving you.
I don’t hope it’s someone else,
That I’ve suddenly fallen in love with.
I don’t hope it’s someone else,
That I’ve started thinking about.
Because if it is someone else,
I’ve maybe stopped thinking about you.
If it really is someone,
I think I’ve changed my mind.

They Say That
They say that our love is a lie,
But can I trust them?
They say that, every time you say “I love you”, you’re lying,
But don’t you mean it?
They say that you’re just playing with me,
But you do love me, don’t you?
They say that you’re a monster,
But, can I believe them when they say that?
No, I can’t believe them,
And I never will.
I’ve never trusted them,
You know that for sure.
I know you love me,
And that you always have.
I don’t trust them when they say that,
And I never will.

Longing
Waiting for you,
Thinking of you,
All the time,
Not a second without.
How long has it been since we met?
A month? A week? Maybe just a day?
I really don’t care if it’s just a day, a minute or even a second.
I want you here all the time.
Here, with me.
I’m just waiting for you,
Waiting for you to come.
Come, and hold me tight.
Just as you used to.
I don’t know how long I can wait,
But I’ll not give up before you’re here with me.
I’m longing for you,
So please, come.

Feelings
What are these feelings?
What’s really happening with me?
This tickling in my stomach,
And the suddenly, giggling?
What is really happening with me?
Why do I always smile when I think of you?
Why do the other thoughts just fly away?
Why are you always in my mind?
This wonderful feeling,
This unique feeling.
What is this feeling?
Is it the feeling of love?
Is it the feeling of happiness?
This feeling I get when I’m with you,
Is it just a random feeling?
The feeling when some of us say; “I Love You”,
Hm, I guess you feel it too.

I was having my best sleep in days, but suddenly I heard a voice.
- Wake up, you sleepy dosser! The voice said.
I opened my eyes and saw a police-officer. Before I had time to stand up, he kicked me out. I ran as fast as I could, he was yelling at me but I didn’t hear it.
- Here I am…again, I said to myself. I had not talked to other people in weeks, so I started talking to myself now, and sometime with God.
- How many times do I have to end up like this? I mean, I don’t deserve it, do I? Hey you, up there! You’re responsible for this, yes you! I’ve asked you several times for a better life, but you don’t do anything. And because of you I always end up in these dark and rainy streets. You just want me to give up, don’t you? Well, listen at these four words; I won’t give up.
I began crying, because I knew that I had to give up, there was no hope.
Next day I found myself on the street, as usual. There were absolutely no people in this poor street. I walked to the small store across the road. – Be ready for some breakfast, I said to myself. I looked inside the shop, and my dear friend was (luckily) there. I walked in and stood in front of him. Without saying anything, he gave me some bread and juice. I went out to the street again and sat down.
When I started eating, I looked around in the street. It was very comfortable actually. So silent, just as I liked it. Without knowing it myself, I went to sleep, a long sleep.
When I woke up, it was very dark and a bit cold too. And it had started raining again. Actually I didn’t have anything against rain; it was like a shower for me.
A piece of paper touched my feet. I picked it up, a poem.
“Hope
I thought I would give up,
But I won’t.
I thought I would live like this,
But I won’t.
I thought I would die like this,
But, no, I won’t.
I’ll keep on fighting,
Until I get a better life.
I’ll keep on fighting,
Until we’re together again.
I still got hope, I’ll not give up.”
I closed my eyes. This poem really gave me hope. I opened my eyes again and looked up.
- Thanks, I said. – Thanks for giving me hope. I will keep on fighting, and not give up.
Hvordan skrive et dikt
Hei igjen!
Jeg surfet litt rundt på nettet og fant fram til en side der det står hvordan man kan skrive et dikt, og det tenkte jeg var noe jeg kunne skrive inn her. Det er ikke så vanskelig, du må bare ville det. 
Her er noe av det jeg fant på wikiHOW
Steps:
1. Les og hør på dikt.
2. Lær om moderne poesi.
Moderne poesi rimer vanligvis ikke på enden av linjene, som du kanskje er vandt til.
3. Tenk på oppnå med diktet.
Tenk på hvorfor du vil skrive dette diktet. Kanskje vil du utrykke følelsene dine med det diktet, eller skrive det til noen.
4. Hør på diktet ditt.
Mange holder seg til å bare skrive det. Men når du har skrevet det ferdig, så se (rettere sagt, hør) hvordan diktet ditt er. Kanskje det er noe some høres feil ut?
5. Skriv ned alt du tenker på.
6. Velg riktige ord. Ikke skriv veriløse ord, ord uten mening. Men skriv ord som har stor mening.
7. Bruk poetiske ord. Gjør det for å bedre skjønnheten og meningen med diktet ditt.
8. Nå fiks litt på diktet ditt, se etter skrivefeil osv…
Tips:
- Hvis du føler at du ikke blir inspirert når du setter deg ned for å skrive dikt? Det er et vanlig problem. Så ta med deg en kladdebok hvor enn du er, så skriver du ned det du tenker på med en gang det kommer inn i hjernen din.
- Du kan gjerne høre på beroligende musikk sånn at du får roet deg ned før du skriver diktet.
- Viktig: IKKE gi opp! Du blir bedre og bedre jo mer du skriver.
- Samle alle diktene dine i en bok, uansett om du liker dem eller ikke. Noen år etter kan du utgi ditt beste verk.
Advarsler:
- Hvis du skriver et dikt som f.eks. skal sendes til avisen, velg ordene og tittelen med forsiktighet.
- Ungå å dele verket ditt med noen som ikke setter pris på (eller ikke er interresert i) dikt. Dette er en feil som kan få deg til å miste motet til å skrive dikt.
- Husk å ha opphavsrett til diktene dine.
- For mye bildebruk kan faktisk “skade” diktet ditt.
Det er noe av det jeg fant på wikiHOW . Vil du vite mer om å skrive dikt, klikk her (på engelsk).
Takk for at du leste dette, og jeg håper det hjalp. Og husk: ikke gi opp.
