"Where's My Mommy? Where's my daddy". I'm sorry little one, they're no longer here. Close your eyes, go to sleep, and dream a better dream.
They may not be with us anymore, but I know where they'll always be: In your heart and in your dreams. So dream a better dream.
When you're scared. Just close your eyes and dream your best dream. In your dreams, you're safe and sound and you make your world your own.
In your dreams, you'll see them there. In your dreams, they'll always be there. I'm sorry they can't always be with you. I'm sure they're sorry, too. Just close your eyes and dream your dream, and make a wish, too.

The GameIf I swallowed my pride it would choke me to deathThe Game1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
Empty and vacant until my very last breath
Born under this star, to violence and war
I never truly knew what I fought for
Playing the game
Escaping my pain
I've moved mountains in minutes, so effortless
Compared to the words I have whispered under my breath
I've flown milliones of miles, both ways through time
Yet nothing has matched that which I've lost inside
When playing the game
To lose is to escape the pain
So sick to see the sun come slowly up
That little horror blinds or burns us; corrupt
So sick to see the images phase and run astray
Return to that place where God is h

And I just have to deal with them
Because that's the thing to do
And other days nothing happens
So I have nothing to do but think
Because that's the only thing to do
Some days I feel happy
And I laugh with my friends even when they're jokes aren't funny
And their words make no sense
Because that's what they expect
And then some days I feel sad
And I want to cry and be alone
But I have to hide it all away with a smile
Because my parents don't want to see me sad
And my teachers will ask questions
So I pretend to be happy
Because that's the only thing to do
And some days I feel numb
And I stare into spac

Now glow with the suns warm rays
My skin laps up its glorious glow
I stare at their sad gloom filled faces
My own now beaming from the bubbling euphoria within me
Though the sun had hidden
Behind those dark grey clouds
And the fat cold drops of rain hit my skin
Its glorious how clean and fresh it feels
I just laugh as it hits my face now
I know its going to get better
These scars are my story
My strength and glory
No more hiding in the shadows
When those around me are my light
I'm not a preacher
I'm not fixed yet
I'm not a teacher
I'm me and though you may not like it
I do
And I feel infinite

The quill is the most special part of writing. Her grandmother told her it was the feather of a phoenix. Sometimes, when she looks at the red quill with the golden flecks, she believes it.

All The Lonely Times And DifferencesAll The Lonely Times And Differences10 months ago in Short Stories More Like This
A child looks out the window wondering what it's like to be out there. His entire life, he grew up alone. He didn't have very many friends, so he didn't know what it was like to have and share special memories with special people. Nobody in his life was special to him, not even anyone in his family. To the child, they were just regular people. It's really lonely not having anybody special in your life. When you cry, nobody hears you. When you laugh, there's nobody to laugh with you. There's only silence and the occasional echoes of your own voice. This is why the child wondered if the outside world was diff

I will continue to look for my comrade, even if I get infected, for now I'll do my best to survive until I hear of his whereabouts.

After effects of shock tend to
Validate all lurking fears.
Eventually the poison settles,
Neutralising barriers as well as
Dreams for the distant future.
Eventually everything will cease,
Red blood dripping down from veins.

Heavenly skies full of faint
Yellow clouds made from the
Nicest candyfloss in the world.
Emerald jewels cover elegant
Shoulders, the finest lace and
Satin makes up your dress,
Angels grace is at hand.
Rich chocolate, thick in taste,
Rolls like liquid fire down
Over pinkish lips, tempting you
With proverbial forbidden desires.
Universe is right at your feet,
Just waiting for you to take it;
Open out your arms and surrender.

Do you know me?
You probably know me
From the latest news
I am a victim of a tragedy
My death was horrific, yes
However, your treatment of it
Is even more tragic
I was a normal person while alive
Had my own dreams and goals
My own values and ideas
All I know is that I am not
A martyr for YOUR cause
Just because I died tragically
In an event that may have been preventable
Does not mean you can use it
To meet your own ends
Would you do that to me
If I was still alive?
If I could say to you that
I don't agree with you?
I bet you said no
So why do you do it
When I am dead?
Wouldn't that be more disrespectful?

I want to show to you all that I see.
It's something to which nothing else can compare.
It's quiet, invisible... it consumes me.
So open your eyes, mind, and heart, if you dare,
And see just how great these creations can be.
Sometimes they're silent-
Sometimes they're there,
But they're always walking alongside me.
There is no place that I'd rather be.
And whether you see it, or feel it, or not,
With doubt drawn from being put on the spot,
I'll tell you with all certainty that I've got
That they are constantly walking with me-
Riding and walking and talking with me-
That they're always-
Always-

A herd of twenty licorn glided out of the surrounding forest, spiral horns and fluffy silvery hides glinting in the moonlight as they clattered across the cobblestone streets. They splashed in and out of a shallow creek that meandered through the front yard of one of stately townhouse, throwing up liquid moonbeams from their flying deer-like hooves. Finally growing weary of their wild games, they broke up into small groups, wandering up the hedge bordered streets to graze on lawn grasses and clover. Suddenly one of the licorn snorted, as a s
