It's calm here but when the wind blows it makes it cold. So cold. I wonder if you can guess where I am, but you probably can't. To be perfectly honest I'm not totally sure myself.
However it's nice enough. And peaceful, in a busy sort of way. Only I wish I knew where I was, both in life and in location.
Barely one moment ago I was a frail old lady, trapped within the confines of her hospital bed. Only now I'm not. Now I'm a fifteen year old girl again. Sitting on her old school's sports field - watching the boys playing football - and wondering not only where, but who, I am.

A Writing Lesson

'Do you love me?' She asked, fluttering her long eyelashes.... The teacher slammed his fist down on the table, 'No! That will not do, it's too cliché, too teenage. It won't grab my attention and it won't catch anyone else's.' 'Fine,' He picked up a pen, scratched out his first sentence, and wrote something else, 'That better?' 'Do you hate me?' She asked, fluttering her long eyelashes... 'Much better,' nodded the teacher, 'But how are you going to follow that?' The student looked up at his teacher, sarcasm scratched into his expression, 'How about with 'Yes'?' Rolling his eyes, Sir snorted, 'Am I wasted on you Thompson?

To the girl who's "okay" With the run-away father Of the baby she's hiding With goodwill and shame, You're not alone. To the boy who's "okay" With the bumps and the names And the scars on his wrist That still won't go away, You're not alone. To the girl who's "okay" With despising herself Because she's knows she's not strong enough To starve anymore, You're not alone.

.:Heaven and Hell:.

Evil thoughts grasp my head. and pull me into the darkness of my mind. pulling me down. eyes watch. growling at my every move. wanting to kill... The demon at the window Protected by a warm, light. keeping the demons at bay. wings like golden sun. eyes like the sky. a little voice in my head will say "you are safe now, dear" The angel by my side heaven and hell. they fight for me everyday. why my soul? what makes me worth of protecting? why do the demons want me dead? and the angels for me to live? Thoughts pass through my head. red and blue mix and fight. tapping at the window. warmth in my soul. whispers in the dark. dreams of life. t

Riddle of a Different Shape

I was born a girl with birth in my belly and I will leave this world a woman in a coffin. From the moment I could walk I had a boy on my heart a boy, man, monster, so different from me. There is a puzzle in my brain of why so different why not me or him and vice versa verses of times but I see he and I are pieces of the same cloth but different patterns for a reason. When I walked into the street, I tried to be a boy but I had hips, that broke the boy I was born a girl, a riddle of a different shape, and he scattered, far away. I was bred to be locked away and select for taller men (and monsters) but I just want t

Odd times

Things aren't always what they seem Take the dice and shake it twice Come on come on Let life roll to pieces It may seem odd But you are strange Time ticks to the sound of my heart As you wave your goodbyes Forever the sun was in your eyes It may seem odd But you are strange Please take my heart as you take my hand Don't pick the dice up Cause this ain't a gamble Just one blow and we're gone It may seem odd But you are strange Take a wink and a kiss I guess this is goodbye

She Talks With Monsters

This girl never had a fear of monsters. She allowed them to rest on the insides of her eyelids, the crook of her neck, the empty spaces of her chest cavity. She had no fear, there were much scarier things in this world than darkness, clawing at her back. Living for the night she etched her dreams upon the bars of her cage whispering of centuries past because she truly missed the sun, grass on her back. Frosty Decembers have her forgetting what it feels like to love, but she knows who she is— she doesn't need the taste of cigarette ash suffocating her inside her own flesh. November skies tore open this night, ripping a hole i

Raoul's Death

All Christine could do was stand there, watching in horror as her beloved fiancé and demented tutour locked blades. She couldn't live with another grave before her. She just couldn't. In no time, Raoul was at the Phantom's mercy. He pleaded, oh how he pleaded, but to no effect. The Phantom plunged his blade through him, and kept doing it over and over again. Christine could glimpse a river of scarlett spraying on Erik's face. Now it truly was distorted. Every emotion she had felt before left her. She was left limp, pale, dead. Tears, very warm tears, trickled down her cheeks, but she couldn't feel them. She had nothing left to

I Sat Down to Write...

I sat down to write… when a black kitten entered my room with a catnip mouse that dangled from her mouth from its blue yarn tail which she dropped onto the floor before she gazed at me with doleful yellow eyes and mewled for a game of fetch I sat down to write… when the water stopped its usual flow throughout our household and prompted a trip outside to a dilapidated shed to fiddle with the fuse box for our pump until the gauge showed full pressure once again I sat down to write… when the freezer for the refrigerator kept in our garage

The Cello's Lament

They call me brute. I'm permitted to chant, but they won't let me Sing. They've confused non-agility for inflexibility— my belly enfolds the earth; my throat trills at the stars; my eyes embrace the cays of the sea. I am an omnivore, yet they will only feed me leaves.

Love it

I feel your hands in my hair. I feel your breath on my neck. I feel your body pressed so close to mine. I feel your lips on my throat. I feel your hands move to my back and your lips work their way up to mine. I feel you and I love it. I hear you say you love me. I hear you whisper my name. I hear you tell me I'm the only one for you. I hear your breath in my ear. I hear your soft snores as I fall asleep. I hear you and I love it. I see you as I run into your arms. I see your face break through my world of darkness. I see you fight away my fears. I see you wipe away my tears. I see you're in love with me. I see you and I love

Now I Understand (A Poem)

Isn’t it odd? Isn’t it strange? How in an instant Everything can change? One day I’m not here, The next I am, And I’m reaching out, For your hand. I’m just a child. I’m alive and free. I’m everything, I want to be. You smile down at me, And I smile up, And I feel like, This is enough. And though we may walk, Across miles of land, I will never let go, Of your big hand. Isn’t it odd, though? Isn’t is strange? How, in an instant, Everything can change? I’m growing now, And I’ve let go. I’ve tossed out the picture books, You used to show. Now I’m lost, And I can’t see. I’ve wandered so far, You can’t find me. I’m on my own, But now I’m scared. I’m still young, I’m unprepared. I’m adjusting though, And we talk sometimes. You remind me, Of those old Nursery rhymes. Isn’t it odd? Isn’t it strange? How in an instant, Everything can change? I’ve come back now, But I’m losing you, And I pray, It isn’t true. Because now I understand, Now I see, Everything, You were to me. My teacher,
