  • Senses Fail- One Eight Seven

    Sunday, June 22, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

    It's so nice sitting very still,
    in a room where no one else can feel the pain that breaks my heart each day, I'm not ok.
    Sunlight shining through my window, let's me know that I'm still alive<a href="http://www.testimania.com/">Testi Canzoni</a>
    Why did I ever let you inside my heart? I'm such a fool.
    Paint my face in shades of blood and grey and take a seat...

  • What Are You Waiting For?

    Tuesday, April 28, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    This is such an inspiring song that, of course, I heard on the radio just recently.  It's as though I've found a true connexion to these lyrics by Natalie Grant.  I almost want to make them mine!
    ---
    "What Are You Waiting For?" by Natalie Grant
    Sometimes I get that overwhelming feeling
    So sad, those faces on TV
    If I tried to make a difference, would it help anyway?
    But t...

  • Get Away.

    Thursday, April 30, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    Matthew West has been one of the main artists that truly gives me strength when I feel weak.  Today has been a challenge- temptations, frustrations, irritation.  I feel like I have not ever properly dealt with two very important issues: "patience" and "forgiveness."  I typically take anything someone said or did that might have hurt me, and quickly tuck it away ...

  • Here's a first

    Tuesday, May 13, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

    Here's something amazing: today I wrote poetry. Yes folks, actual poetry. I've never done it before. Normally, I suck at writing poems. I mean, I'm not saying the poems I wrote don't suck, I'm just saying I was actually able to write them. I was bored during STAR testing, and they all just sort of flowed out of me. It was really weird. I just wrote the words that came into my ...

  • 17 in 10 days

    Tuesday, April 14, 2009

    17 in 10 days... and what have I become...how have I grown?
    an obsessive...pitiful, mound of waste
    a hollow shell
    a corpse leached of all form
    ...well
    what a great thing
    to be
    when just a year away I'm on my own
    how will I ever make it?
    I don't know
    ..
    but I'm determined to surrvive
    I'm longing to thrive
    I'm hoping to toss away
    the school days
    that color me flourescent
    in awful yellow-tones
    li...

    a poem i wrote for poetry class last year...
    Lines
    Open your hands and trace your fingers across
    the worn crevices of lukewarm victory.
    See these intrepid lines running deeper than
    any wound from thy scornful, wagging tongue.
    Remember the alter ego of a Titan
    bearing the sting of fabricated venom—forever smelting
    treasonous gold.
    Running deeper and numbering more than stars,
    these lines are...

  • Stop

    Friday, September 25, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    But I can
    I can stop the addiction
    Stop the cutting
    Stop everything
    Because I have the will
    The will of Jesus Christ
    So I will stop
    Stop the cutting And stop this addiction

  • a poem i wrote.

    Thursday, April 23, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    wow...its been awhile since i did this thing... but im deceiding to do a poem instead of a regular journal entry. this is for all the teenagers out there that sadly took their life all because they thought that they were never loved, and always pushed around, just because of who they are.
    -Those We Lost-
    The Morning starts with a chill.
    We look around at the blood thats been spilled.
    We wonder why...

  • My World

    Wednesday, January 21, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    It takes a beautiful mind to understand my world, a beautiful soul not to run in fear, a beautiful heart that remains open.
    For you see, my world is not like the norm, and I cling to it as I have known no other. I am familiar with its entirety…a feeling that is so divinely crazed.  My world is the island of cliffs you see in the distance. From far away it seems so mysterious, so ...
