BLACK RIBBONS
Black ribbons drifting,
Through darkness unguided,
Dreams being shattered.
SECRETS
I keep my secrets,
Well hidden in a red box,
Never to be seen.
SORRY
I'm not ashamed,
I don't mean to remember,
I am not sorry.
BONES
Here are scattered bones,
The flames lick and turn into ashes,
Here lie scattered ashes.
DREAMS
My dreams lay shattered,
All my hopes are now destroyed,
And now you leave me.
DARKNESS
Darkness all around,
Ripping me piece from piece now,
Tearing me apart.
"Come and stay here,
Sleep in my bed, together,
Let me hold your hand,
Please, help me to stand,
Up on my two feet again,
One step closer to Heaven,
Stay here with me,
Stay with me,
Stay..."

FALL Chapter One (Rough Draft)
1. LEVIAS
“When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison…”
-Revelations 20:7
IT BEGINS WITH THE FALLING sensation, and I don’t stop till I hit bottom, the fiery bottom. I watch as those soft, claw-tipped, seductive hands travel my body. The simple fact that I enjoyed it was enough to repulse me.
How do I know it’s me? I see those same dark eyes every time I look in the mirror.
How do I know it’s real? I still have the halo around my neck, and, at least, one impure wing to prove it.
EACH NIGHT THE DREAM IS the same. I’m beyond the point of waking in cold sweats or shou
They tell you all their secrets,
You tell them all of yours,
They become your best friend,
And then they ask for more.
What do you say to that?
Do you say yes and fall in love?
Or do you say no and keep on looking?
Do you allow them one step closer?
Or do you tell them you'll be best friends
Forever?
So you feel the pain?
Now you know how I felt,
The day you left me in the rain.
The day you broke my heart.
Now you know how I felt,
So don't come running back.
The day you broke my heart,
Is the day I stopped trying to care.
Don't come running back,
I won't welcome you here.
That day, I stopped caring.
That day, you went too far.
You aren't welcome here.
I don't want to see you again.
That day you went too far,
And you felt the hidden scar.
I never want to see you again.
Don't make me want you anymore.
You felt an unmendable scar,
And now I can't move on.
Don't make me want you anymore.
I can't stand your stupid smile.
I'm having troubl

Great Grandma (Don't Go)
There
you were
laying in the hospital bed,
tired,
breathless,
dying. Holding on
to life with your
papery hands.
Don't go.
You raised me,
taught me. When
did you get so frail,
so dependent?
When
did your life
start to fade?
Don't go.
Wires and tubes
snaking along beside you.
Down from the machines,
coiling on the floor,
and rising to your bed.
Don't go.
So fragile,
helpless.
I can't cry
and I wish I would.
Just a single tear
but it won't come.
We love you.
You can hear us,
but you can't speak
for the breathing apparatus
stuck
down your throat.
Don't go.
I can't bear seeing
you this way,
I want to remember
the strong,
strict woman

A Common Thing (Hope)
Hope's the home of killers,
I've learned too often,
The one I know best lives there,
Its name is heartbreak.
I've learned too often
We're all just human.
It begins with heartbreak,
And hope's a common thing.
We're all just human.
We go on living through the days.
Hope's too common a thing,
And still we keep on reaching for it.
We go on living through the days,
Hurt and left by things undone,
And still we keep on reaching for it
We humans never learn.
Hurt and left by things undone,
We slowly begin to realize,
We humans never learn,
But we begin to see the truth.
We slowly begin to realize
All that is said and left undone,
Yet we begin to

STANDSTILL:. PROLOGUE
He held her close to him as the world moved on without them. Her brown hair fell in waves along her neck and the couch as they lay there, happily tangled in each other. He buried his face against her neck and kissed it softly as her hands combed through his golden brown hair.
He pulled her closer, and whispered softly in her ear, "You make me happy."
She smiled to herself, then whispered back just as gently, "You make me happy, too."
"I love you."
"I love you, too"
A shout came from the living room. His mother, old in her age, wanting to talk to him alone. He slowly and carefully detangled himself from her, and kissed her gently.
Let the rain,
Pour on down to me,
Let the rain,
Wash away the memory,
Just let the rain.
I wonder what you'll say to me,
Now that all has past,
Wonder if you'll dance with me,
For now so this will last,
You took it all away,
Switched around my night and day,
You lost my soul at sea,
And now we cannot be.
Let the rain,
Pour on down to me,
Let the rain,
Wash away the memory,
Just let the rain.
When you came around,
This lonely town,
I looked at you,
And felt a few,
Raindrops upon my head,
You came up to me and said,
You have never known me,
And we will never be.
Let the rain,
Pour on down to me,
Let the rain,

Tainted Angel, Innocent Demon
I'm a tainted angel,
Seeking my redemption,
All the lies I do tell,
Just to find protection,
My heart lies black,
And fire cannot touch,
The love it does lack,
And it doesn't feel much,
Those times it does feel,
Only late at night,
My head begins to reel,
And I reach for some light,
The innocent demon,
Seeking the hurt,
Wanting some reason,
To fall down in the dirt,
The heart lies pure,
Apart from all evil,
It cannot be sure,
No bigger than a beetle,
A piece remains gone,
Given away,
Out to the dawn,
In hopes that someone will stay.
I like writing and drawing. If I could I would be making pottery/ceramics and stained glass. I also enjoy sewing. Eventually, I would love to have a large garden.

It's been a long while. I have a ten month old baby girl, and will possibly be getting married soon. I hope I can keep up to date better than I have in the past.
So I'm now almost 7 1/2 months pregnant and it's a girl! Haven't done much work lately, no new writings or drawing to post.
Sorry I don't keep this updated as much as I should, but it's one of many things that got pushed to the back of my mind. :(
I hope I haven't lost touch with the friends I'd made on here. I'm sorry for my distance.
Well, about three or four weeks ago I found out the I was 2 months pregnant. Everybody thinks it's going to be a boy. I had my first ultrasound a week after finding out. A healthy heartbeat and all looks good. My next appointment is this Thursday, the 28th. I can't say whether I'm more nervous or excited about being a mom. My fiance is both excited and nervous. We've moved into a one bedroom apartment, and the baby is due in March, supposedly on the 13th....a Friday. (The irony in that is that we'd picked out the boys name long before we found out....it
