I fight in the dark of the night
Running through this endless plight
Losing all hope, though just taking flight
I hope that maybe I might, just make it through this alright
I'm running. I'm racing. Just about to lose sight.
Chasing the light, falling from such great heights.
My mind is slowing. My breathing is labored.
I feel like I'm falling, will you be my savior?
Will you help me? Bring back my sight.
Help me keep from dying, tonight.
Help me I have to walk among ghosts.
Sights like those would be freeing for most.
But for me; all it does is shuts away my memories.

Stitching a heart
You tore my heart
I stitched it softly
As your name was etched into my soul
Red had splattered as my mind went black
Where have you gone?
What have you done?
You tore my heart
I stitched it softly
As your name was etched into my soul
Brown cakes itself under my fingernails
Why are you screaming so loud?
When are you going to be quite?
You tore my heart
I stitched it softly
As your name was etched into my soul
Blue and red lights bloom all around
Why are you asking so many questions?
Why are you yelling so loud?
You tore my heart
I stitched it softly
As your name was etched into my soul
Black bars; orange clothes

I was halfway out the door from the beginning
Because I wasn't ready to accept being back
I wasn't ready to return to the life I once had
With the friends I have left behind
I was ready to run away again
Ready to destroy lives
It is so easy to run away from this place
From a place I never knew as home
This place to me is a burden
Something I easily wish to destroy
Why will it not burn?
Why does it still stand?
All this place holds is bad memories
All it holds is tears and lies
All this place holds is a childhood forgotten
A childhood I see as a lie

Boredom leads to writing
The cool zephyr gently tosses my brown hair with streaks of lavender. My eyelids are heavy, and the shadows of the night usher me to rest. My consistent pace slows to a sluggish trot where i find myself mostly to be dragging my black ruined converse behind me. I stare into the endless darkness of the sky, on the horizon there is still a hint of brilliant purples and pinks from the watercolor sunset. I inhale the cool crisp night air, and continue walking. The dry yellow grass rustles beneath my cumbersome body. Sighing I sit down. I feel my eyes blinking a second longer than normal, it feels like someone has added ten pound weights to my eyel
Light breaks through the pale white birch trees leaves. Clouds of all hues laced the sky like pearls, making the sunrise look even more beautiful as it rouse over the mountains. My skin bristled as the warmth cascaded over my sun kissed being. A breath escapes my lips as I drink it all in, winching slightly as the ropes cut into the tender flesh of my wrists. My town is small, only about a hundred and fifty people at most. Not many tourists come to our town, so in order to bring them in every year the council picks the name of a child from the ages of twelve to sixteen. These kids get tied to a tree in the dark dense forest for two days, with
We come to love not by finding a perfect person,
But by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly,
There imperfections make them even more true,
Those imperfect people are our best friends,
They are the ones we can share anything with,
They are the light that we see when there is no hope,
They help us through thick and thin,
Those imperfect people are the reason we love,
The reason we hate,
The reason we stand so tall,
They are the people we pass by everyday,
But only a few of them are the ones that we notice have imperfections.
My heart was finally unlocked
Though the pieces that you opened
Slowly broke
With each word you said
With each word you yelled
With everything you laughed at
I'm never giving my heart up again
Cause you locked my heart up
I hope your happy
I hope your sad
I hope your laughing
At everything you said
I hope you remember every word I said
I really meant it
I really did
But now I'm never giving my heart back
My heart was finally unlocked
Though the pieces that you opened
Slowly broke
With each word you said
With each word you yelled
With everything you laughed at
I'm never giving my heart up again

I still remember the day my parents died, its like a movie playing over and over in my mind. I remember seeing my Dad getting stabbed so many times that his guts painted the floor. My Mom she had better luck, I guess you could say then Dad did. She was stabbed once and she bleed to death. As for me, well I had hide under the bed but that didn't save me. My fate still came with a bloody hand, pulling me out from my hiding place. Before me stood the person I thought of as a hero. My older brother, Lucien or Luc for short, he stood in front of me eyes blazing green. Red drenched his clothes and a knife held tight in his palm. He smiled down at m
