Writing Article: A poem; Humanly Mistakes

Feel like falling,
    but sure to stand fast.
Feel like letting go,
    but afraid of the rash,
Feel like giving up,
    but afraid to sleep,
Want to jump,
    but afraid to of falling off way to deep.
Sometimes life takes me in weird directions,
    but knowing me, its all imperfections.
Sometimes emotions cloud every single thought,
    and knowing my actions, I’m here to rot.
Forever will my mistakes continue to haunt me,
    standing here, I now see.
What if things could be different next time?
    Would it then, take a lifetime?

Bleed - A poem

posted by Sweet_Pants

Find the casual sun day

Starting with the stumbling wake-up, the strained smile

Smelling the hurried breakfast, bile up her throat

Shrinks away from it, queasy, holding her stomach

Never letting it leave her, the emptiness filling up

Inside her, determined to make it last

Heavy textbooks never all that’s holding her down

Uncertainty sawing through her, the only thing filling

What she considers a burden, but how could hunger

Be so cruel?

It’s drilling into her, snarling, never dulling

Never letting up, just a little longer

A little longer...

She dry heaves, it’s a tiny stall

And the walls are closing...

Different Worlds - Chapter 3

posted by Bella_Swan3

If you spend your life wishing to die, willing to end it yourself, even, and the chance was given, would you take it? If you had chosen that fate, when your breath became slow and painful, would you still wish that on yourself? In the shadow of death, would the reality of it dawn on you, when it was just too late?

A life of darkness was not one worth much, to Taylor.

She had been so desperate to die. Willing to do it herself, had it been possible.

She lifted the knife to her bared forearm.

The flat, cold edge of the blade pierced the pale skin of her wrist. She felt no pain from it.

The midnight...

The flight from New york to Rome took an excrutiatingly long time to land and all the while i was getting more and more annoyed with Edward. "as soon as we land we will run to Volterra okay." I muttered quickly braiding my hand through Edwards and sighing contentedly.
"I know that it's just what if we are too late?" his voice broke on the word late.
"we won't be i promise." I didn't know if that was true but i was trying to soothe him i better not voice my true opinion out loud. I half dragged a depressed Edward through the terminals and growled sharply as I saw the bright sunlight outside.

Edward and i made the flight to new york with moments to spare.
while the girl scanned our passports through the database i tried to call carlisle. Again.
"Edward your growling stop it." i muttered to low for the human woman to hear.
"right sorry do you think we will make it in time?" his words were cracked and strained in his effort to keep it together.
"I hope so Edward, I really do." i sighed delicately.
we got to our seats on the plane edward was muttering a stream of profanities.
"It is faster than running." I tried to placate him.
"i know that." he hissed at me.
"Hey don't take this out on me."...

High Skool Rainbows:chapter 2-part one

Chapter 2:Getting to know him
Murphy
I spent break alone in the library tiring to find a book I've wanted to read for a while-Pride and Prejudice.
It would have been nice to spend break with Savannah,catching up what all happened during the summer,but she had to spend it with her popular friends. I never liked them and they have never been nice to me. I was always too shy and geeky, I guess.
Stacey was the head of the group,the team captain. I remember when I met her-in third grade. She pushed me down to get to the swings first on the playground. That doesn't matter anymore, except that she...

My Story : Human, chapter 1

posted by sweetpea92

    CHAPTER ONE
    Ugh. I groaned internally as I woke up. My head was pounding, and broken images were swirling around behind my eyelids. I had no idea where I was, or how I had gotten here. I refused to open my eyes and find out, or give any other sign that consciousness had found its way back to me again. Not knowing exactly where and when I was was a dangerous business for me. Very dangerous.
    You see, the last thing I remember before the blackness hit, is that I was running…
    My legs were on fire. They...

The last minute (prologue)

posted by nEvEr-tHe-sAme

The rain fell silently as I layed there waiting. Not like I had a choice though. But it had seemed more like a nightmare than reality. This wasn't how I imagined it... I never even got the chance to say goodbye. Let alone even explain what happened. I needed to wake up... from this nightmare, I tried, but never could... never did.

Life lesson: I learned that trusting people isn't what it actually seemed. There's more to it than you would ever imagine, I mean, it's not just trusting people, but it's who to trust. How can we tell? There might be some ways we think we can tell, but those ways......

It feels like a piercing physical wound; to see her leave me again.

I cannot access the part of me that handles realisation. Serena called her Ashleigh. That child in her arms. Is mine.

My forehead is resting on the edge of the hard granite countertop, and I am trying to ignore the card that is currently lying right in front of me. I already know what is printed on it by heart.

Serena Meyer

And then a number scrawled on in her own handwriting.

PREFACE

The woods were filled with silence and I looked around for any signs of the slayer. As I heard the leaves on the ground rustling, I turned around and there he appeared from the treetops of a nearby tree and he gave me a sly smile which sent shivers down my spine before slowly approaching me and my heart was pounding inside my chest. I was vulnerable as there wasn’t anyone to protect me and I knew that I was going to die here, alone. Please let this be over fast, I thought to myself.
Every step that he took towards me was another step closer to death. His long, black hair was flowing...

Daddy

A/N: Ok, this is just a short, about 500 word drabble I came up with. It's about 7-year-old Alice and her drunk derpressed father, called, of course, 'Daddy'. It's not much, but I though I'd post it. Constructive critisizm is welcome.

Please rate and comment.

The smell of his breath came off in waves of grief and alcohol mixed into what could be described as inner turmoil. Although Alice barely gave a thought to the bottle of whiskey in his hand, as she was more preoccupied with not throwing up from the smell of her father she should have gotten...

When Jamie stared and was speechless the moment she saw the handsome man in the doorway, that man looked at her for a few seconds and still holding the soccer ball, he said to her with that grin of his, “So, this really your ball?” In return, Jamie didn’t answered his question, she just kept looking at him and figuring out what her mother was doing, Mac decided to be the person who will do the talking and from below, she looked up to the man and said to him, “Yeah, you are holding my ball!”

After hearing that, the man looked down at Mac and when he squatted down to Mac’s...

Part 3
Eddie woke up on a sky scraper roof top. It was raining and he couldn't remember how he had gotten there. He was still tired, and dripping wet, but he didn't care, he curled up and went to sleep again.

"Good morning sleepy head!" Eddie woke up to see a mutant, that looked like an angel, standing over him. "Where am I?" he said. "On the top of a building, can't ya tell!" another voice said from behind him. He looked behind him to see the mutant that was dressed like a devil. "Annie, don't be mean to him, he probably doesn't have any ideal of whats going on!" said the angel. "So I guess...

Gods 2: Chapter 1: Palm Springs (Sorry I deleted the other copy)

posted by gossipgirlxoxo

There’s nothing better than a nice relaxing holiday; in the beach, city or country to meet your tastes. I had only been in the famous Palm spring for two days. And to be honest I wanted to go home, Ethan wasn’t speaking to me. Thor and Liz were all over each other. Remember that guy I ran into in the cemetery, well he’s here and talking to me, against Ethan’s wishes of course. I sat there on the fresh green grass, no not playing golf but reading ‘All the pretty girls’ a book that I needed, a bloody disgusting book with no love what so ever. I closed the book and put my face in my...

Three Poems

posted by Cuddles

These are for my dad who died almost exactly 12 years ago.
I don't know if it's any good.

Untitled

I’ve been at this point many times before.
One should think it might get better.
But now, as it’s almost exactly 12 years since
That special day
I remember
Everything
As it would have been yesterday.
That I didn’t understand
That I didn’t want to understand.
That something faded away this day…
that it did not return
until now.
But it was not my hope
It’s still there, hidden in a small corner of my heart
Sometimes piping up
Just to abandon me again
But it didn’t leave me.
Yes…I still...

I walked over there my very first thoughts were Thor. But it wasn’t. I walked over there and saw Ethan I opened the window. He pushed his way passed me without saying a word; he lay on my bed and started to breathe slowly. “What the...” I said looking at him but he didn’t even look back at me he just stayed there. I walked over and sat on the bed. “Well” I said. “Shh, I have a major headache” he said rubbing his temples. I smacked him on his chest and for a second I let it lie there and then he looked at me. “So what happened?” he said smiling a smug smile. “What do you...

Ode to Joy

Josie ran.

“Maybe I made a mistake thinking you’d understand!”

“Well maybe I made a mistake marrying you!”

She ran, not heeding the tempest that tore at her clothes nor caring where she fled to as long as it was someplace far from home. Away from the chaos of her fighting parents and the hopelessness of the choice she was faced with.

“A tumor?”

“...it’s pressing on your brain stem and growing very rapidly. If it isn’t taken care of soon, it will be life-threatening...the surgery, however, would cost you your hearing... Permanently...”

Her heart pounded in time with her feet;...

Don’t you understand

posted by blossomyumyum

You’re keeping me up at night as day breaks
It’s all for you
Yeah that’s what you do, got me feeling so blue
When will you see
You have to let it be
When will you see just how much you really mean to me

Why is it just so hard to send that card
When do you think you’ll be able to understand
My love might be killing me

I hope you realize I’m just a fool
Damn! You’re so cool

When do you think you’ll understand
You drove me to a far off land
When will you see
I can’t just let it be
Come on try to set me free
When will you finally understand
I care about you
I’ll tell you that firsthand
You have my heart and my life
I hope soon I’ll get a chance to be your wife
I hope soon you’ll see, you mean the universe and the galaxy to me

Daniel

~"Rays of hopeless light beamed dim and pale through the dull orange, yellow, and auburn leaves of the fall's trees. But even where there is calmness in neutrality, there is always a prey, and always a predator. Humanity is no different."~

Daniel tore through woods at full speed, clothes torn, his small orange backpack dangling across his back, his left arm carved with shredded flesh in the form of animalistic claw markings and lines of smeared crimson leaked slowly from the wound above his eye. The leg to his jeans on the left side, only hanging on by a thread ripped itself away just above...
