Comforting Things

• Being home alone
• Going to the movies
• Thinking

    I am a quiet kind of person. One that enjoys thinking and being left alone to those thoughts when I have the chance. I have always been this way. So during the day I get pretty tired from social situations because I usually have to exert a lot of energy in them. When I get home and I can relax it is just bliss to me. I am more of a thinker then a talker, a visionary of sorts. One of the things that can get me to think is an engaging movie. I just love being able to escape from the real world for a while and let my imagination run free with a great movie. Being in a movie theatre is a very relaxing activity for me because it's a stress reliever. The only thing I am worried about is what's going to happen within the movie and the world outside just fades to exist for some time. I find these things comforting because they cater to my personality.
   

My Name

My first name is Raymond
A name I do love
A name I carry with pride
A name meaning wise protector
Shorten it to Ray
Show a winner of a contest of skill

A name coming from a man of sturdiness
A man of true power
The power to raise my father and the rest
Making him as strong as he could be
A grandpa I wish I could have seen

My last name is Marrero
A Spanish stone breaker
A name of force and strength
A name I am glad to bear
A name that stands tall and proud

This name has endured
Son after son
A dormant force of nature
The legacy I will leave

My middle name is Michael
Resting silently between two rocks
A name that proposes a question
''Who is like God?''

Named after my father
Hardworking and smart
A serious, silent name that sits
Waiting for it's recognition
A slight embodiment of myself

If Everyone Were Aliens

    The day after I find out that every person in the world is an alien I wake up and get ready for battle. I strap on a bandanna, grab a survival knife, grab a gun, and turn into Rambo. Since I know that I'm the last of my kind I might as well go out with a bang. I run outside and roundhouse the first alien I see. Next I karate chop the next alien I see and knock it out. As they try to swarm me I pull out the gun I have with me and start taking them out. I will run out of bullets and they will probably kill me, but they will never forget about the human race and they will never forget about me. I then become a legend to them over time, one who is very much feared, but slightly respected.

A Pinata at a Birthday Party

    It's been five days since I've been kidnapped from my home where I lay comfortable all day. Now though I am out of the terrible dark room where I lay on the cold floor. Now I am hanging outside feeling the breeze. It's a comfortable time. I wonder though why is there all of these people crowding around me. In my time of confusion I see a small boy, one who looks at me with utter desire as if I am his dinner. His expression is very frightening to me. He gets a cloth wrapped around his eyes and weapon put into his hand. He walks toward me at a slow and steady pace. With pure fear I realize that all of the horror stories I heard from my friends at home were true. With that realization I knew what was going to happen to me. I closed my eyes and readied myself as I felt the air from a swing on my side.
