I walked the edge
I watched you fall Away from the world Away from it all I looked below I saw your wings I watched you fly I heard you sing You called to me in every dream Struck my shelter and pulled at my seams I fought your cry each lonely night, Resisted your will and put up a fight. You want to fly, to soar, to flee You want to move on But I'm still finding me

The day I swore to myself I would be normal
I tried to fit myself into society's mold And found it was much too small It pinched at the corners Squeezed on the sides But I made myself fit I had no choice No remedy No cure for me And she told me Helped me see That my complications were what made me...me I never stopped trying Trying to be them I try to this day But I know it's in vain My past has changed me My future will shape me And I will be me.

Thanks guys :3
TOMORROW I thought I had found what I was looking for Thought I had struck gold But I hung on much too tight And now my world is shattered I should have known it wouldn't last But I turned away and I wouldn't believe it You presence is fading before me Without you, I'm as good as gone It never lasts, try as I might But I've never gotten used to it And every time, It breaks my heart a little more Your departure was the final blow Who knows if I'll still be here tomorrow? There will be no comfort as long as you stay Just beyond my grasp Tormenting me with your existing And ravaging me with your words Forever was the word I spoke But now the light is fading fast My every word to you is strained You don't love me like you once did And when have you said it? In words, never. In your new attitude towards me I have nothing against your new friends Only against myself But the day I see my life reflected in the screen Is the day I die Who knows if I'll be walking tomorrow?

It's really, really good, Ever. The last one makes it very relatable, even if you have no experienced that feeling before. Please write more! :3

Almost everything I write, excluding RPs, is somehow related to me.
I've always been divided First in two, then three I know division The constant pull of all my worlds But never like this I never expected this Never anticipated seven worlds Never even realized they were all my doing But here I stand At the crossroad to eternity Shattered And pieced back together countless times One was my home My first sanctuary Two was my friends My social life And the cloak I wore The shield of laughter and smiles Ever undershadowed by the cold Three was my second sanctuary Of light and of smooth lines Of aliases and false security Four was myself Behind my walls An insecure girl watched the world Removed from the words her body spoke Five was my friend Who helped me through the dark times Six was the boy I adored And seven Seven is my final sanctuary The place where no one enters And I am safe Seven is my dream When the my six realities failed I set off for my final destination In the deep reaches of my mind A paradise flourished In my dreams, Pangaea formed again And I saw him for the first time I loved him as I always told him But until my last two worlds fade I'll be here Holding on To my last wish ______________________________ Well, that didn't really turn out how I expected. Took some unexpected turns, too. I may edit this later, I dunno.

Well, well. Ever's been writing a song! A love song, very complicated. I've kind of got a tune in mind, will post when I figure it out. I nkow it doesn't all make total sense, but songwriting is hard, okay. And so I guess I'll post this in Poetry because... a song...is like poetry? I dunno, I didn't feel like making a whole new thread. So anyway, here goes!
I dream of a world Where there's nothing to holds us down I dream of a life When nothing keeps us on the ground And I know when I see you You'll know that it's me and I'll say Once upon a time I was a girl you were a boy Fighting 'gainst the world's team Once upon a time we were separated by 2000 miles But bound by a dream. And I realize My dreams are really naught but dreams And I realize Nothing in this world’s as it seems But I keep breathing, breathing, breathing, And we gotta keep dreaming, dreaming, dreaming. You know I ain’t leaving, leaving, leaving, But we gotta stay strong And keep this love alive Oh, keep it, keep it, keep it Alive

These are awesome poems. The one about the seven worlds, the fourth one reminds me of the fourth wall. The fourth wall seperates TV from the reality, and you rarely can ever break it. I don't know if this was intentional or not, but you were refering to the fourth wall. XD!
Anyway, these are awesome poems Ever! |

Your writing continues to amaze me. It's soooooooo gooooooood! I can't wait to see more.
I think what I like about your work is that although I would not be able to identify with the situations on my own, I can identify really strongly with a lot of the things you write. (Btw there is what I think is an error in the one about worlds? "When the my six realities failed"?) |

Finished the first song! It's really short, I know, but whatever. The end got a little less... poem-y and more song-y. And I has a new song. Tis much more poem-y that the first. I haven't really got a tune for this one yet, but we'll see, I s'pose.
One day I’ll fly far from this city My feet will leave the ground and I’ll Be free to soar to you My life can be new When the ground falls away And my spirits are high My soul can start fresh And I will fly When I turn a new page Nothing will ever be the same Because, starting now, It’s a whole new age I once believed I was just a girl Never free to explore the world But now I see There’s nothing stopping me but my imagination Nothing to keep me down I am my own salvation And I will not stay on the ground I used to think the world was against me But now it’s clear to me My only obstacle is my cognition I can finally see Nothing’s gonna stop me now I will fly As far as I’ve a mind to And no adversary Will dare to intervene I once thought the sky was the limit But now I see I was wrong The only limit is the one I create I will stand strong This melody The words I sing Take me to a time and place when I Can be myself So watch me spread my wings and fly from here There’s nothing that will stop me when I Truly free myself and take that Leap of faith I need And I’ll be free

SO, I wrote this song for my best friend, Lezlie, known here as cheesecakelover.
You have my shoulder when you need to cry I'm here to wipe the tears from your eyes If you need me I'll be here to give advice With sugar and spice and everything nice When you call Oh it's the least that I could do For a friend like you Oh yeah You've always been so kind to me Even when I'm moody You know me better than I know myself So I'm here for you Too see you through The rough spots in your like We'll be friends forever more When you come knocking at my door It won't be locked Walk in, make yourself at home Here in my heart Oh it's the least that I could do for a friend like you Oh yeah

Another song, because I am ADDICTED to writing these things.
In silence we sat You and I I knew your name You caught my eye Did you feel the spark? That shimmer of affection I saw the start Of something beautiful We all have something we can't live without We hall have something that makes us want to shout with fury I know mine You are my one and only You make me smile You give me peace of mind If only for a while But I hate myself For letting myself get me I just can't seem to put my feelings on the shelf I need you to save me from me And I need you to keep me breathing Did you feel the spark? That glimmer of affection I saw the spark Of something beautiful

^ Perks of having a girlfriend who writes songs!
MOAR LOVE SONGS! A thousand ways to say good morning A thousand ways to say bonjour A thousand ways to say hello But yours is the only one I want to hear A thousand ways to give a hug A thousand ways to kiss A thousand ways to say a thousand words And the ones I'm gonna say today are Please don't leave me A thousand ways to walk away A thousand ways to leave A thousand ways to tell someone goodbye A thousand ways to shed a tear A thousand ways to die inside A thousand ways to break my heart A thousand ways to cry Please don't let it be today I could tell you a thousand reasons to not to let me go I could write a thousand songs for you But you know There are A thousand ways to give a hug A thousand ways to kiss A thousand ways to say a thousand words And the ones I'm gonna say today are Please don't leave me ___________________________________________ Woot, repetition is catchy!

Song I wrote after re-reading Flyer Fox and Stay Grounded. Somehow I end up singing this to Listen to Your Heart by Roxette.
Take to the sky, little bird You need to be free Take to the sky, my friend Don't you worry 'bout me You've let the problems of all those around you Keep you down Spread your wings, little bird And rise from the ground Spread your wings, my friend And fly You've let the world hold you down For far too long And I know you Are a caring little soul But now It's time to truly let go Take to the skies, little bird And rise from the ground Oh I'll be waiting here for you There's just one thing for me to do And when all of this is through Don't you worry 'bout me You've let the problems of all those around you Keep you down for far too long Take to the skies, little bird And rise from the ground

These songs are addicting and seem to burst out of me :3
So, this song has a bit of backstory! See, I was going to try out for the volleyball team this year, but tryouts fell on the same day as rehersal, and I couldn't make it. BUT THEN! I realized something. I would never be great at volleyball, no matter how hard I tried. But the other things I did (singing, dance, flute, songwriting) came naturally to me. I realized that I knew what I was good at and I should word hard on those things instead of trying to be good at something I'm not even that passionate about! The stars and stripes refers to singing the Star Spangled Banner at a baseball game (which I have done TWICE with my school!) This song was originally supposed to be about singing AND dancing, but it kind of turned out to be more about singing. Whatever, I like this one a lot. I'll never be the girl to make the winning shot I'll never be the girl to serve the winning point I'll never stand on the field with my arms held high Unless it's for stars and stripes I might not be the type to win a game But give me the stage and I'll score all the same I belong where music flows Where people dance And spotlights glow Give me a mic and send me a cue And I will sing a song for you Music makes my world spin These notes that turn me upside-down Lift me from the ground This melody These words I sing Keep my young heart beating Music lifts me up Fills my thoughts and dreams Keeps this young girl hoping I belong where music flows Where people dance And spotlights glow Give me a mic and send me a cue And I will sing a song for you Music makes my world spin These notes that turn me upside-down Lift me from the ground

So today, I was biking, and my brother was complaining that I rode too slow, so I wrote this song!
This is for my parents when they don't approve This is for my brother who's just so rude I'm sorry I'm sorry I'll never ride my bike as fast as you want me to I'm sorry that there are some heights I just can't climb to Sorry that I'm afraid of bees Sorry that I can't climb tall trees You're just gonna have to deal with me I apogolize that I don't want to be a doctor Apologies for not wanting to go to law school _______________________________________________ I'm having (song)writer's block now, I'll update later.
