Quote time!
Write a quote. Two sentences or two paragraphs. It doesn't matter, just write a quote you love, hate or it's sad or happy. Be creative! This was mine as an example, "I don't need them anymore. I'm the person they needed, and what they wanted to be."

Quote Time! Challenge

What is it that everyone wants to hear?

“I see you, for all the things you are.“

Next Day

The night will come and it will end

Then the sun will rise and we will try again

Because that is all life really is

Staying alive

Making it through the day

Surviving through the night

Waiting for the time

When it will all fade away.

Because sometimes

The only way to better days

Is through tomorrow

Forever Falling

I feel as if I’m falling,

Forever falling.

There is no up or down,

No darkness, nor light.

There’s just the endless abyss of fog and mist.

And every time I think I’ve finally found solid ground,

It gets torn out from under me.

And then once again I’m falling,

Forever falling.

I’m dying, fading fast

The voltures circling above, they’re closing in.

They can sense it, smell it on me,

The oncoming death.

And I’m still falling,

Forever falling.

Love Bird

Love is not a word meant to be said

It is a beautiful mystery meant to be felt in the heart

If you feel the need to say it

Then it isn't real

My love is not a word

My love is a bird

I'm like a bird with clipped wings

Waiting for another bird

A bird that isn't as broken

To come along and keep me company

A bird willing to give up it's wings and the sky

To sit next to me and watch the world go by

Who I Am

Trust me. You don't want me. I'm terrible. I'm awful and impatient. I'm harsh and cruel. Not kind or patient. I'm mean and brutal and blunt. Painfully blunt. I will break you, put you back together, and then break you again. I will do that over and over again until you feel like you're going insane. That's just the kind of person I am. I will hurt in ways you've never been hurt before. I will break you down and destroy you in the most painful and brutal of ways. You will hate me. You will despise me so much you might even start to love me. Don't. I'll make you feel things you've never felt before. I'll disagree with you, and even when you're right I'll never admit it. I will confuse you and make you question everything. I'll make you wonder if what you're doing is really what you should be doing. I'll be bitter and lie to your face and you will never know that I did. I'll be honest only when I feel like it. But despite all that I'll be there. I'll always be loyal. It takes a lot to gain my trust. Even more to gain my affection. But it also takes a lot to break it. It'll take heaven crumbling to pieces, the world ending, and hell freezing over for me stop trusting you. I will be vicious, but I will always love you.

Who Ever Said

Who ever said darkness was bad

Who ever said light was good

Who ever said that just because I lived in the dark it meant I was evil

Who ever said that just because you live in the light you're automatically good

Who ever said

What Is It About Our Inner Selves

What is it about our inner selves that make us all run scared

What is it about our inner selves that make us fear the world

Why don't we just say it

Why don't just admit

The things we really fear are what's inside our heads

The Things We...

The things we love are the things that kill us slowly

The things we cherish are the things that make us lonely

The things we fight for are the things we fight against

The things we want are the things we give away

The things we're running from are the things we're running towards

The things we hate are the things that we adore
