Gravity

Will the ground catch her feelings to safety?

They're getting closer Crossed distances together There's something to know. The ground is open It was opened for her space But for others, too. Unforeseen forces The gravity had pulled her They were enjoying. The uncertainties She realized halfway down To crash or be caught? Will she crash in pain Falling in full speed below Or be caught safely? She is falling fast Faster than the speed of light She has to be saved. Velo...

True Love Conquers All

Confessions of a disordered and unruly mind

Inexorably I can feel myself falling Into the darkness that always lurks, sinister And out of sight, there at the corner of my mind, A place of demons and unnameable horrors, Where my worst nightmares wait, eager to claim my soul. Like a condemned man on the way to the scaffold, I see the leering faces of the mocking crowd Calling on me to save myself, their jeering taunts The accompaniment to my headlong descent Into mad...

A Letter To Modern Romeo

letters from a girl who wanted to move on but couldn't bring her self to.

Dear Romeo,Hey, let me get this straight. I know you would be skeptical if you will read this or not, it’s your choice. I am not going to force you. I know, It took long for me to send this but I was weighing things out. If I’m going to share this or not. I wanted to clear things out basically from the things I’ve heard but it really doesn’t matter, and I don’t care much about it because even if I do, there's nothing much...

Catapult

We don't fall in love

They say that people fall in loveI beg to disagreeIt’s really more a catapult:You’re launched, then flying free Swirling, twirling through the airThe world around you spinsLike nothing you have ever seenAt heights you’ve never been You catch your breathSuch beauty!Surrounds you and withinYour happiness just radiatesYou feel your life begin Whether you are young or oldThe newness is so crispEverything is wonderfulEverythin...

There's a pit that I fell intoI'm still falling, it's so deepAnd I cannot stop this tumblingCause the walls are smooth and steep It has made me lose my visionOnly one thing I see clearIt was Her that made me stumbleshe made all else disappear She keeps pulling ever strongerIt's a force too fierce to fightIt's persistent, not relentingAlways pulling, day and night And that pit is getting warmerEver hotter while I fallThere...

Anonymous

When I was five, I lived in New York. I didn't know, nor care if I was popular or not. I was just there, and played my own way. I later grew to learn which side belonged to me. As I look back, it seemed to me that I was the most forgotten and least likable girl in my class. Before we moved, I had two best friends, Sarah and Emily. I always preferred visiting Sarah's house because she knew how to play along with me. Unlike...

Fly

Flying and Falling

I can't remember why I wanted to fly,it seemed like I could do anything I try.Once upon a time the dream seemed real,but dreams all end and fate is sealedThe earth seemed so hard and dark,I wanted to be free, to escape it like the lark.To see the clouds and float along,to hear the world play a different song.To be a place where the light surrounds,to be somewhere that was not the ground.But the sky was scary and newand un...

The toddler falls, but he's made of rubber and bounces back up and learns, even if he cries.The tree falls and a new and stronger one grows in its place. A hawk flies at a dove, which is overwhelmed by fear and falls, and falling saves the dove's life. When the sun falls, rain falls, a leaf falls, the temperature falls, it's all part of the balance of everything. Nature is in endless cycles of rising and falling, like bre...

I lie there, flat on my back, sore and disoriented. Blinking against the darkness, I begin to comprehend my surroundings but make no attempts to move yet, growing accustomed to the dull ache in my muscles. I've fallen into some sort of chasm, a deep and narrow gorge of essentially nothing but gravel and an inexplicable cold draft. Sheer rock faces rise up on either side of me, impressive yet unthreatening. Though I strugg...

eye glasses

I fall through a door.

How fragile is life not seen but listened to and felt. A delicate screw, that held my right eye lens, fell onto the tiles. Feeling my way with my feet, I saw the world through a blur. Weightless for one second, falling, I did not see the opticians’ notice; Caution, mind the step.
