PAINT CHIP

July was chilly blue
Sitting on the chair with an untied shoe
Wondering what I should do.
Found a treasure map
Under a sand trap --
I was on my way to the shipyard
When I forgot my card.
Into the infinite deep sea
It was dark like a tea.
At last I found it now --
It's time to flee.

INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE:  Do what you love.  Don’t let anyone stop you form achieving it.

SATURDAYS

Saturdays
Usually start with brushing my teeth
But I mostly sleep in --
It’s fun.
Saturdays are amazing 
I wouldn’t ask for much
No exact time to wake up
Never really grumpy
It’s the best day
Out of the week.

INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE:  Saturdays are the best day of the week, because relaxing can relieve stress!

What Matters to Me

My name is Aurianna Morellano
and I am full filipino
But I was born and raised on Guam
I love the food here
I love the beautiful beaches
I love the hot sun
I still love being filipino
No I don’t eat dog
No I am not a FOB

I know my culture likes balut
But I don’t like that
I like the juicy BBQ
And the different types of kelaguen
We have the most beautiful sunsets
and the most beautiful island
(c) amorellano

INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE:  What I love is what matters to me.

GUMMY BEARS

It's so dull and lonely
It's like time is moving slowly
Everything I see is gray
OMG! It's so boring today
I don't know what to do anymore
It is not the day I hoped for
But then I hear my mother arrive
Then I feel like I'm becoming alive
I quickly descend from the stairs
To see my mother with a pack of gummy bears
Then suddenly life became so colorful
And I became hopeful

INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE:  Enjoy the little things in your life.

HEY PAPA

Papa I miss you
Cause you were the glue
To our family of four
The family I longed for
Without you here 
My head feels unclear
So come back to us
So there won't be a fuss
I hope to see you soon
So there won't be a fuss
I hope to see you soon
So you can make me another animal balloon
Remember I'll love you forever 
And I'll talk to you whenever

INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE:  Cherish the moments you have with the people you love.

BARBIE

Many think I have a perfect life
Many think I am lucky
Many think I have it all
Yes, I may have a dream house
Yes, I may have friends
And yes, I may have Ken
But the one thing I desperately want
The one thing I really need
The one thing I will never have
Is a soul...A soul that will make me human
A soul that will make me feel REAL.

INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE:  Don’t let others define you.

THE BOY IN THE GREEN JACKET

The boy in the green jacket
 I want to have a picture with you in my locket 
 You wear a smile that melts my heart 
 If you were an item I would add you to my cart

 Whenever I see you my heart skips a beat
 I wish you’d just sweep me off my feet
 You are the sun, the moon, and the stars
 If you ever leave it will give me scars 

 You make me blush in fifty shades of pink 
 That’s how I know you’re my missing link
 I hope this message reaches you 
 So that you’ll know my love is true.

INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE:  Don’t be afraid to express your feelings.
