Knowledge wakens choice can be
I do not choose through fear
I choose because I can
Before the abyss called
Now it is mine to summon
I embrace it

No tears only smiles
A fond farewell

1. Mikhail Nakamura - starts by being a kid who rose to many questions and loved to spend time on the country side to a shady character who cannot truly distinguish good from evil and feels that coercing other human beings is a funny thing. He also has little or no respect for life and has a terrible fear or guns and water. He got married pretty young, as a result of some teenager absurdity.

Esqueci-meEu esqueci-me de tanta coisa.Esqueci-me3 years ago in Emotional More Like This
Se calhar até me esqueci um pouco de quem era
Estive a olhar para trás, ontem. E vi coisas de que não em lembrava, pequenos pedaços do meu ego que tinha esquecido. E as memórias, que demoraram a chegar, mas que quando chegaram deram cabo de mim.
Havia tanta coisa
Estava tudo cheio de gente, era uma imensidão, éramos tantos e tão poucos! E eu, que por desleixe, vos deixei ficar ou terá sido o contrário? e me esqueci do que era e do que fazia e do que gostava de fazer.
Foi bom voltar.
Queria ficar lá, mas já não é

The perfect guyThe perfect guyThe perfect guy3 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
He would make a room disappear
Just because he's there
He would make me happy
Just by smiling
He would make my heart pound
Just by kissing me
And when he kisses me
The world disappears,
I feel happiness,
And my heart melts
The perfect guy
He would know my favorite cake
Just to eat it all, because it's bad for my health
He would run the whole world
Just because I'm on the other side
He would leave me
If that made me happy
And if he leaves me
My life ends,
The world disappears,
And I disappear with it

DeterminationLife was so dull.Determination3 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
So boring.
So desolate, and tasteless.
My only joy came from seeing my friends at school,
And seeing them laugh.
And then,
My friend introduced me to you.
The more I got to know you,
The more I realised how sad you were.
One day I told myself I'd had enough of it,
And I vowed,
That I would be the one to fix you up.
That I would make you feel better,
That I would take away all of your sorrows,
And replace them with happiness.
That I would give you a reason to live.
Only a few months have passed.
I've worked,
and worked,
and worked some more.
Trying to wiggle my way into your heart.
It was like trying to d

Soul of flame and dancing shadow
Blossom into adulthood
Eyes that see beyond their years
Carry more tears than yours
Burning bright out of sight
Passions deep and true
Hidden from casual eyes
Words not spoken held so close
Slipping out of childhood chains
Creating art in emotions
Drawing love and fear

This is an anniversary gift for ~MeleeMasterX, my boyfriend. Every month we celebrate the day we started going out because we're goofs like that. Well this month is extra special because as of tomorrow (which at the moment is in two hours) we'll have been going out for six whole months. :) I tried drawing a picture but..

Because I don't know you
I can't even
See where I'm going
You took my vision
You took my sight
Cause when you left
You took my light
I'm left alone
You took it all
No one to catch me
When I fall
No one to save me
Slip away
No vision left
In the light of day
Its bright outside
But not in here
And no one's left
To shed a tear
I'm left alone
You took it all
no one will catch me
Now I fall.

Lá do alto, ela mantinha-se de pé, direita. Os seus olhos escuros como a noite que a envolvia fixavam o mar feroz do alto. O brilho do olhar era capaz de substituir a Lua, que tímida escondia-se atrás do nevoeiro alto.
O vento, seu Mestre, acariciava-lhe os cabelos compridos e ondulados que ou esvoaçavam dançando ao pé do seu Mestre ou se escondiam por detrás do alto colarinho do casaco.

"O Comboio"
A maquinaria voa
Através do nevoeiro.
Sobre as carrilágens esvoaçantes,
Levitantes,
Carris enferrujados.
O mais forte metal mostra-se vulnerável,
Perante a pressão...
...velocidade implacável.
Por detrás dos vidros fumados
Por entre o calor abrasador
Corpos mortos e gelados
Enchem bancos e corredor.
Medo atado à alma
Olhos esbanjados em lágrimas
Era a única com vida
Num mar de penadas almas.
Corroída, amedrontada,
Chora pelo medo de morrer.
De joelhos, assustada,
Implora para sobreviver.
O mórbido clima
Agravava,
O calor abrasante
Penetrava.

Why Not Me...I feel so stuck in my headWhy Not Me...2 years ago in Songs & Lyrics More Like This
Lack of sleep makes me feel dead
And this never ending pain
My thoughts always run about
I don't want to feel this doubt
Was everything just nothing?
More rarely do I find sleep
In my sorrows I've fell deep
I'm numb, I'm hurt, someone please
My right is wrong, up is down
Painful thoughts the only sound
Regretting, sad, defeated
Days merge on as time flies by
Gets harder to hide this pain inside
Someone please
Living in regret, alone
With memories of when we were close
It kills me
Please stop this pain in my chest
I cry, care, nearly dead from unrest
I'm sorry
I'm pleading don't disappear
I want

But seeing you happy
Makes me think otherwise
Pain's not easy to hide
When you're in pain like me
You only want to die
I push to stay alive
Seeing you without me
And with another guy
At least I never lied
I stayed so true to you
And now so hard I try
You are my first love
That I truly felt love
You're my everything
For you I'd do anything
Give you my whole soul
Give you my whole heart
Give you my whole life
Give you a red scarf
Give you the world
Give you it all
I'll sacfrifice me
If it means we can be happy
I'm holding onto us
Playful, happy and free
Oh so mischevious
We did what we wanted

The Purple Jaggers In the meadow the grass was bright green, yellowed in places by the blazing sun. In the middle of the meadow were bursts of bright purple. From a distance these balls of color looked like flowers. The little girl that was resting in the meadow caught sight of them and dropped her book in the excitement to have them. She was a thicker girl, showing the marks of womanhood a little earlier than most of the children her age. She had saffron colored hair turned golden in the sun. Freckles graced her nose and cheeks along with sunburn her father affectionately called coon maskThe Purple Jaggers4 years ago in General Fiction More Like This

traveling with an insaitable hunger
eyes set aflame with deep amethyst
content to sit in the shadows
waiting for your prey
they will fall at your fingertips
an irreverent but efficient strike
again you brought them to thier knees
your skin shining a pale glory
holding them to your will
a wicked grin , concealed by silken jet
tells them they dont have long to wait
too often the last thing they see
and the first they remember
when does it get to be too much?
how often do you retreat
lurking back inside
taking solace in your shallow remorse of a soul
the only thing that yet binds you to

The road is long
And his paws cut deep
He hopes he wasn't wrong
In the path he chose to keep
For the moon is so high
The shadows stretched wide
But the hawk will not fly
As the wolf has finally lied
He will no longer linger
Nor betray the betrayer
No sound of the singer
Or the red fur soaked in layer
Wolf's tears shed for the wings of the sun
For time has ended and their hearts must run

Help me, stop me falling,
I dont want to die.
I want to stop this falling,
Teach me how to fly.
Dance among the shadows,
Tease the pale grey dawn,
Let me stay forever,
Learning how to soar.
Take me away, way up high,
Where flying feels like falling
And to fall, it seems,
To fly.
