Lights

Lights

Everything ablaze
Brightness in my face
The dark is nowhere
To be found

Fire ignites the truth
That burns within us
Circulating our blood
Making us free

The voice
Of our feelings
And our love
Is real and is among us

My family
Will forever be there
To help me
And you

Strength is in us
We came here to set things
On fire
To radiate the light

The lights
The power
The shine
The glory is us

We are what we show
Or what we see
Or what our lights
Show to others

This is what I feel
This is the truth
It calls us
It makes us come to it

This is what I call lights
The thing that shines
That shines with glory
And power

It will forever be here
And it is here
For me and you
To share

Lights
It is bright
It makes us lose control
We aren't in control

We don't control the light
The light
Controls us
We can't stop it

Make it stop you
Make it help you
Let it empower you
It is perfection

I came up with this while listening to Lights by Ellie Goulding

Kikikyo stared straight ahead as he flew. Clutched in one foreclaw was a book of centaurian poetry. His father, King Parthurnax, disapproved of the centaurian love poems contained within the book.

"Love? Bah! In my day, we didn't have anything called love. You modern dragons aren't tough," his father had said the week before. Kikikyo could remember thinking, <Here we go again. Another speech on how the ancient dragons were better.> Between his young son (at the tender age of ten-and-seven) and...

The Fragile Ballerina Figure

posted by sawfan13

The tiny ballerina figurine
As unique as an owl in winter
As beautiful as Christmas morning joy
It stands alone, looking at the other toys in the girl's room.
She remembers when she first got her.
Her birthday.
Will never forget her reaction.
Other dolls came and went
But not the little figurine.
She dances slowly as the girl falls asleep
Her porcelin skin cold and shiny
Pretty white tutu dress
Always ready to dance and bring happiness
One day she was ignored
Weeks and days went by
Her owner, forgetting her presence.
The girl grew more, and her nightlight went
Making the ballerina feel scared and alone.

The Dying Leader

posted by alicia386

This is a continuation of The Dying Ashes. I am Katherine Adams and I have received this manuscript my aunt had sent me weeks ago. She has gone missing. I fear for her life and I wish not to speak of her. I must continur this tale.

I knew Dylon very well. He was like a second father to me so his death took a great toll on me. To continue my aunt's research I have had to follow those four demigods very closely. I have learned so much about them. I think that maybe it is better to move from city to city so they can't get a good lead on where I am. So far it has worked.

Saukerl

"SAUMENSCH!" I hollered from next door. Saumensch isn't really the nicest thing you can call someone, it is like an insult, that is, like calling someone a pig in America. But right now, I am not in America, I am in Germany, so live with it. You'll get used to it, don't worry. "SAUKERL!" Matna hollered back. Saukerl is about the same thing, except used to call men and boys that, while Saumensch is used to call girls and women that. Her name is Matna Johanasen.Anyways, my name is Carls. Carls Shotansen. Pleased to meet you. The story of "Way to Go, Saumensch: A Note From the Saukerl" all started on one foggy night...when everyone was asleep, except for one very peculiar being. And, he, was not German. He bore the symbol of the Star of David. He was a Jew.

    A few hours later, and you found all of us racing out of the movie theater to our car, which we thankfully parked far away from the scene. We jumped in and when we all finally stepped through Lara’s front door we burst out laughing, falling to the floor.

Mason stared off at the window. Was this new emotion joy or sadness? He couldn't tell. When you think about it, his life isn't all that complicated. He could be in a worse situation like having to remodel the house after a natural disaster hit. Instead he was a millionaire with girl problems. His father offered to have "the talk" with him but he refused. Cassidy had came by this morning. She asked him out on a date and he said sure. He couldn't believe he said that.

There was something interesting about Cassidy. She had long black...

Prologue

Beep Beep The monitors from the hospital bed were rapidly going off. The violent shaking and movements made
them go faster and faster. "We're losing him! We're losing him!" They cried out, trying to turn the boy to his side. The
violent shakes stopped, as the one continuous beep on the monitor showed one never ending line.

It's been a year, since the arachnophobia slowly developed into agoraphobia. How, you may ask? It had developed from extreme arachnophobia, slowly and slowly growing so irrational that the kid won't even leave his room. His parents look at each other with misunderstanding,...

Troy, The Almighty Fatty

Last weekend, Ciara, Zaria, and I, Teresa, traveled from Hollywood, California to Paris, France. We planned on living there for a year and see how it goes. Zaria wanted to study fashion, Ciara wanted to study art, and I wanted to study the french boys there.

We bought an apartment about a month before we started packing. Ciara is the organized one so of course we had our plane tickets, some snack because airplane food is cheap and disgusting, and we had our suitcases. Unfortunately, I am the complete opposite of Ciara. I forgot my suticase in my mom's car. Luckily for me, she didn't drive off...

"You're lying," I said but then again, who would lie about something like this. "My father would have told me if he was in danger. We have a strong relationship."
"That maybe, but would he really want you to worry when your spy exams are coming up? Would he want to add more to your plate of stress?" Darrell raised one eyebrow for my response but he didn't need one. He already knew what I was going to say.
"You have a point but," I said. "What is the school going to do about it? Surely, they wouldn't let one of the most top notch...

A small, black car turned round the corner, it slowed to a stop in front of him, the door slowly opened an instead of the small agent the commenter had told him would come 3 men in odd black suits, white ties and black sunglasses stepped out and shoved a pillow case over his head, blocking his line of vision so he couldn't see what happened after that but he felt the smash of a cricket bat against his head while being roughly pushed into the back seat of a car. Slowly his head started to hurt a lot and...

    “Are you okay?!” I asked as I rushed to Zaria and Iris.
    “Somewhat,” Iris said giving me a shaky smile, while Zaria replied. “Define okay.”
    I helped them out of the water, they were soaked, and kept on slipping. Which led me to fall into the water.
    “Sorry,” Iris said, looking at my now wet clothes sorrowfully.
