Independent Writing #10

When I wrote this, I was thinking about what things make me happy. Mostly the weather, but people I care about make me happy too.

---------------------------------------------------

All Things Come Together


Sun in the summer
Winter and the rain
These are what drive me
When I feel the pain


Winds across the sand
Heat over the isle
All things come together
If only for a while


I cannot speak of things untrue
But here they rest anew
Bringing groves of trouble
So afresh and yet so blue


I cannot ignore the plans of tomorrow
Nor forget your smile, so pure
But this that can be known
I am happy for sure

Independent Writing #9

I wrote this because I was thinking about how tired I was, and then I remembered this one dream I had last year. Everything was just not going right at all. I lost everyones trust, I lost everything, everyone. My parents split up, I was seeing a therapist, and there were still so many problems no matter how hard I tried to make them go away. I was lost im my own messed up world, and if you asked me what happened now, I wouldnt have an answer because I dont even remember it. So basically, I was just randomly inspired by this dream I had a year ago. So, ya. Enjoy.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Will you remember me?

As the spring changes to summer,
and the summer to fall
As the leaves fall from the trees
Into the puddles left by the autumn rain,
Will you look down into them and can you honestly say,
Will you remember me?

As the colors of the sky shift to from blue to gray
And the sun wont come back until I’m gone
Do you look down on me for what I have done
And tell yourself
That forever and all after were in my eyes
Will you remember me?

As I am gone as time goes by
With the changes in your life
Like a petal in the wind
That goes right by your eye,
Is that all that is left of me
Will you remember me?

Independent Writing #8

I didnt know what to do, so I wrote an Independent piece. Its definately not one of my best, but atleast its something to put on this blog. =) Its basically about how much someone can love for someone else, and was inspired by that. I wrote it because at first when you start to really like someone, you get nervous, and shy around them, or atleast I do. Its like a feeling that makes you never want to let go of that person and spend all the time in the world with them. So, yah, thats why I wrote this poem =)

--------------------------------------------------------------

Amazing

With all the world surrounding me
It sometimes looks like there is nothing to see
But there's always someone I can always count on to bring me back to peace
And make all these hopeless thoughts cease.
He means so much to me, he's amazing
Whenever he's around, it feels like my heart is blazing.

Shyness comes and goes all the time
But when I look into his eyes I know I'll be just fine
I'll always hold him close and never let go
And maybe that will give us enough time to grow.

Microfiction

No one ever talked to him. I didn’t know why. He always sat by himself at lunch, he always walked in the hallways reading never looking at people, barely even noticing they were there. I was in a couple of classes with him and he didn’t answer any questions, and the teachers never called on him. If it wasn’t for mandatory school, most people thought he would be a recluse in a basement somewhere. I however, was fascinated. I thought he was cute, he was smart too, he had straight A’s. As far as I could tell, the only reason he didn’t talk to anybody because they didn’t talk to him. I never found the right time to go and introduce myself. He was always by himself and reading, I was intimidated. I’ll do it tomorrow I told myself everyday. One day, there was no tomorrow. Not for him anyway. He had killed himself. They found him holding a book.

Screenplay - "70's Yo Momma"

"70's Yo Momma"

[Two Kids are engaged in an insult fight. They are in the middle of it when the camera pans around them and then stays on Ben.]

Ben: Your mom’s so fat, she put on her lipstick with a paint-roller!

Will: Your mom’s so ugly, they didn't give her a costume when she tried out for Star Wars.

Ben: [Looks stumped] Uh…uh…

Will: Oooh! You just got served!

[Ben runs to his house, crying. Inside is Danielle.]

Ben: Mom! I just got served by this bully!

Danielle: It’s alright, honey. In fact, I remember when we used to have insult fights. That was on the same day as Gerald Ford survived his assassination attempt.

[Danielle then remembers the day she had an insult fight during her middle school experience.]

[The camera pans similarly to the previous insult fight, but instead circles around Megan and Danielle. The camera stays on Danielle]

Danielle: You’re such a putz to the max!

Megan: That’s, like, so totally bogus.

Danielle: Psh, ya, that’s right, in your face!

Megan: Well…uhm…like…

Danielle: You just got burned!

Megan: [Walks off in a huff]

[Flash-foreword to the present]

Ben: Wow! I didn’t know you guys had insult fights like us!

Danielle: Yeah, we did. We used different words, but they all had the same meanings. And remember: Words are just words! Nothing to cry about.

Ben: Gee, Mom, you’re right!

Danielle: Now do you feel better?

Ben: Yeah, thanks a lot!

[Ben walks outside, the camera fades]

Independent Writing #7

I was listening to Sams ipod and this song called Cloud Nine by Evanescence started to play. It really caught my attention and inspired me to write this. The music was really calming and it talked about how one can get lost in a dream that can never come true. And how something seems real, but in the end it isnt.

------------------------------------------------------

Upon them weightless like a dream
Flow along on unseen streams
Feeling freedom all around
Quiet silence all around

Music sings from feathered peace
Darkness fades and light’s released
Floating here amongst the stars
Moon shines bright all fears are far

Stormy days bring freshest new
Laying around with nothing to do
Address here is Cloud Nine High
Forget the world up in the sky

In my blanket of white puff
Worldly things now seem too tough
And to horizons yet unseen
I keep my love within this dream

Independent Writing #6

Basically what i wrote about is when you show someone you love them, and they just stop caring about you out of no where. Its about how someone sacrifices themself for someone they love, but the other person doesnt return the sacrifice. In the end someone always ends up getting hurt. My inspiration was my friend. She has been through so many guys this year who she gave her heart to, and in return they just ended up hurting her. It made me feel so bad and I tried to think about how she was feeling, so I decided to write about the things she told me. Enjoy =)

---------------------------------------------------------

I gave you my love
You shunned me away
I wanted to know you
You made me frayed

Just for a chance
I’d give you my all
But you refused me
Ignoring my call

You are too busy
To give me the time
Do I make you sick
When we talk online

Am I just a nuisance
A bug to be killed
You are my world
But am I your ill

I don’t have a reason
To live or to die
All I have is a question
This question is why?

Independent Writing #5

The other day I was listening to my ipod while I was doing my homework. I wasn't really paying attention to anything but this one song I was listening to. It’s called Fake by Allele. I kept playing it over and over because I felt like it had some sort of meaning to it. I felt really inspired from listening to their powerful lyrics, so I stopped doing my homework and took out a piece of paper and started to write. Sometimes you hear stuff in music where someone brakes free from someone else and does not care about them. I think that's wrong because giving them what they may deserve may not be the right thing to do. I believe that if we all can learn from each other, then we can all be free. Enjoy.

---------------------------------------------------


This is how I face my fears
Turning back to erase my tears
Won’t run away and call it the end
Picking up life I’ll do it again

Push me down just one more time
Destroy this hate inside my mind
So you can see the force I am
My true form was kept within

Here you go you push me down
But that smile will be a frown
See now I have been set free
You have lost control of me

Watch me fly above your flaws
As you stand in shock and awe
Held me down for far too long
Now you see me ‘til I’m gone

Then what will you have of me
Nothing but a memory
Will you fadeout of all time
How will you restart this rhyme

I cannot give words that heal
Pain is all I ever feel
Soon you’ll find the way to go
Not forever in the snow

And you’ll flies up in the sky
Never wanting to know why
Peace will fill your heart and soul
See just what your future holds

Independent Writing #4

This is just something I wrote one day. I didnt have a good day, and people are just...blah.. so I thought it would be good for one of my independent pieces. I guess I was inspired by hatred and darkness because that is pretty much how I felt. I wanted everything to get better. I wanted everything be alright again. I wanted a transformation from being upset and angry, to cheerful and happy. Writing this poem allowed me to get a lot of my anger and frustration out, like some sort of emotional relief. Even though I mostly write for myself, I hope my audience gets something out of my pieces and enjoys reading them aswell.

------------------------------------------------------

Falling

Falling down
I kiss the nearing ground
just as the night burns through
coming out, I’ve missed the only sound
that might help to make it real

darkness wont cover up
the hateful damage
darkness can only cover up the tears

witness the motion of the earth
witness the endings of ourselves
witness the new beginning

staring into the sun
I feel the nothingness
given and throw it away
watch our faces fade
watch the weather change
such a beautiful transformation
just before the night turns into nothing again

darkness only helps to hide the tears
of everything, nothing, and anything
darkness before light
sorrow before hope tonight
pushing forward we will
find me standing here

Independent Writing #3

I finished all my homework I got bored in first period study hall. So decided to write something new since I still needed some independent pieces for this class. I had no idea where to start or what to write about so I thought and thought and then I thought of my boyfriend. I reminded myself how much I love him and care about him. Unlike my last boyfriend, he loves me back. So basically, he is the one who inspired me to write this piece. After I wrote it I didnt really want to post it on my blog as one of my independent pieces at first. My friends Elizabeth and Katie both told me that it was really good that I should. So here it is. I hope you like it.

---------------------------------------------

Not You

How can you see with eyes shut
The time lost is too much
To hold out on
To never care
Just to never remember me there
You choose to stay
I choose to walk away
Onto someone new.
I knew I wouldn't have a problem
Unlike you.
I love him
I care about him
I'd do anything for him
And he would do the same.
Lets see you top that

Lives-Assignment #6

Some people would do anything for a second glance from anyone who passes by. They just want attention, in the worst way too. It isn’t good enough for them to be noticed in a good light, they always have to do something extreme, and people judge them. They wonder why, why does everyone call me a slut? Why do people think I’d do anything for them if they tell me they can get me a deal on some coke? Attention is what everyone strives for, but do you have to be noticed like this? At first I was not really fazed by your extreme actions, but now you are just really starting to annoy me. Can’t you just stop and think about what you do before you act?

You know that I’m not the biggest fan of receiving attention. Then let me ask you why do you do this around me? Do you ever think about anyone besides yourself? I tell you everyday that your over-the-top actions make me feel uncomfortable. Then why wont you just listen, for once, and start noticing that I have feelings too! At first, when we were really good friends you never acted like this, and that is why I became such good friends with you. I felt like we could relate in so many different ways, but as we became closer and closer, I got to know you on a higher level. The things you did just really made me mad, and annoyed. You started to become someone I didn’t know, or didn’t want to know for that matter. I would try to avoid you by walking down the other hallway, or walking fast and getting to my next class early. However, you eventually caught up with me. You asked me what was wrong, and I totally ignored the fact that you were even there.

Just stay away, stop following me I'm trying to avoid you, I'm trying to be nice, but you may just make me snap. I don't want to hurt your feelings; I don't want to make you mad. I just want you to stop. Please, I don't want to raise my voice, I don’t want to yell, I really don't. But I'm screaming inside.

We had been such good friends; I know you can be a good friend. I had always had fun with you telling each other stories and slacking in earth science, but not anymore. I can't let you do this to me even though it is not your intention. It never was but its happening anyway my grades are slipping. I try to concentrate but you are just trying to get my attention. Sometimes you try so hard I think you give more attention to me than you get from anyone else. Everyone may give you at least a second glance just passing by, but you will give me a second, third and fourth glance. Well I don't like it, it’s too much.

We used to be such good friends, but not anymore.
