Run into the fire, Oh, jump into the flames, Wild eyed and soul anew, A heart cannot be tamed..
Clawing at a wisp of truth, Desperate to stay afloat, Hanging onto what was left, A silent, strung out note..

I was bored?... In the beginning, there was a noise. Not a very loud noise, or even a very subtle noise.
Ten. The tables, they are turning, Click. The bomb is set, All of these decisions, You will make, will you regret. Nine.
Based on an old piece that I wrote called 'Red lilies'. I like the idea, but not the way I'd written it, so I decided to alter it, and write it again...
Just like a ray of sunshine, To chase the blues away, A happy little smile, To brighten up your day!.
Just one more look,. Just one more stare,. Just one more moment,. With you there,. I need to move on,. I need to leave,. I need to go now,. New air to breathe,. I know you're not here,.

Selflessness is rare. Our world is tarnished, blackened by greed and envy. Driven to delirium on the quest to conquer.

Dear Bethan, Hello. Don't panic. This letter really is from your future self. After five minutes it will self destruct, so I recommend you read quickly. 2013 will be... Well, it'll be a year at...
Chapter one.
If I could be different, Would I choose to be the same. To keep my life, my memories, My dreams, my soul, my name, Is different really all that great. Is sameness any good.
The sky was light,. For now at least,. The clouds were white,. The dark had ceased,. The Sun awoke,. And found the crown,. Beside him, yet he'd,. Still a frown,. "Why does she do this,. Every night,.
Trapped inside a jam jar,. Not yet to know my fate,. Only waiting, time will tell,. For it could be too late,. The glass is cold and shiny,. But the air is thick and warm,. Sickly sweet, no oxygen,.
Hello again. I have just realised how much I have been missing Opuss over these few days or months (I'm not sure how long) that I've been absent. Anywho, I'm back, with with a new story as well.
Crystal clear, Your lies I see, Forgiving you.
Hello again people!.
~Thea~ I sit bolt upright, drawing in long deep breaths, my eyes closed as I compose myself. My heart flutters in a panicked frenzy, and a gentle roaring starts in my ears. I have to get up.
I am not invisible, And yet I am unseen, Slinking into shadows, dark, Eternal nightmares, dreams..
I take a breath, And take a bow, For my whole life, Leads up to now, Roll up my sleeves, And close my eyes, Whisper prayers, And goodbyes, A sword of magic, In my hands, Finest weapon, Of all the...
Again, sorry for the wait. Hope you enjoy it. :) Beep... Beep... Beep... Beep... Beep beep beep beep beep beep beep... "Hello. Hello. She's unresponsive. Her heart rate's increasing.
Nightmares are reality, Reality's a dream, Normal is so far away, And nothing's what it seems..
My heart is like jet. Midnight. Shining like stars unseen and twice as far. Cold from a lost love, cracked too many times. I thought time could heal. That everything gets better eventually.
Inspired by Coraline.
Not in love, And not alive, A broken heart, I can't survive..
Midnight, on all hallow's eve,. Her realm and time to wake,. Blackest eyes of charcoal jet,. Your soul is her's to take,. Her hair is all but spider silk,. Her skin, translucent, pale,.
Trapped in glass,. Locked in a frame,. Stolen pictures,. All the same,. A photograph,. Was all it took,. A simple glance,. A harmless look,. You stole my heart,. And took my hand,. Into a life,.
Um... I was bored. Brain: What on earth are you doing?. Me: Um... Eating a cookie. Brain: WHAT?!. Why?. Me: Because I needed a cookie. Brain: ARGH!!. Why?. Me: Because I was feeling upset.
Hearts can be broken,. The truth, it can lie,. Promises, shattered,. And happiness, cried,. Love filled with hatred,. Your secrets all told,. Thoughts are forgotten,. Or youth getting old,.
There is a little piglet, That lives in my bedroom, It's very small and very pink, All round like a balloon, It likes to dance across the floor, And tip toe round the bed, It wears a tiny black top...
Hidden wishes, Stolen hearts, Frozen secrets, Kept apart. Life is golden, But not all great, Tarnished metal, It's far too late. Painting darkness, Shadows grow, Light is fading, Ever so slow..
Well, this is me... part two. ~Futureness~ I'm really unsure about my future. To be honest, I haven't a clue what I want to do. But, for the purpose of this challenge, I shall try and write...
Sorry for the wait. :) 19 years later... ~Elle~ Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock... My eyelids shoot open and I gasp, nineteen years worth of air flooding into my lungs, oxygen rushing through my veins.
@littlekitten 's challenge... Hello. I suppose I should start this introduction off with something simple. Like my name. Which is Bethan. Though I have ever rarely been called that.
In my dreams, I wake up and hug my dad. He ruffles my hair, just like he used to and smiles. "My own little sleeping beauty." Then, we leave the hospital, and everything is back to normal.
Is it all a game to you. Is it just 'for fun'.
I had an incident with floss, It still fills me with fear, Yes, on that cold and stormy night, The memory's crystal clear, For, I had just brushed my teeth, Colgate, max white fresh, When all at...
Life and all it's wonders, The sea and sky so blue, The emerald grass, the summer sun, To be in love with you..
My memories are stolen,. They're not mine to keep,. See, I take them softly,. Whilst the world does sleep,. My life is but a glimmer,. A never ending lie,. Nothing's mine, a stolen truth,.
A little note~ Not written from personal experience, just inspired by a poem read in English. Together, that's what you said. Always together. You lied.
Flicker in the darkness,. A faerie in the haze,. Lost lover, so obsolete,. Struck down by midnight's gaze,. Wander, lost by moonlight,. Warm heart yet oh so cruel,. Icy cold and elegant,.
Going too fast,. The bonds are still tight,. Clever but clueless,. Lost in the light,. Stumble in meadows,. Sing in the park,. Flicker, so hopeless,. Dance in the dark,. Voices are calling,.
Part 3 Just to let you know, this is set directly after the events of the first two parts... ~Elle~ "Results?" "Negative.
Too many times you've forgotten me,. Too many times you've lied,. Too many times you've told a secret,. Too many times I've cried,. Too many times you've wronged the world,. Too many times to say,.
I am but a butterfly, Innocent and free, Naive, young and ignorant, Flying endlessly..
Part 2 The nurse from earlier, Ingrid, takes my hand and lifts me up. I don't object, too tired to save my own life. I was born here, I will die here. That's the way life is.

Violet circles,. Greying eyes,. Tears are falling,. Softly cries,. A mask of make-up,. To hide the pain,. Lies are building,. Never again,. Bruises fade, but,. The hurt still shows,. Hollow hearted,.
'Inmate 24B96X Female Born in captivity, 24/06/23 Classification X34T90' I never knew my mother. They killed her as soon as I was born.
Cold as the hatred in my eye, Shoot me now, I'd rather die, For I have not a tear to cry, I, the queen of ice.
Hope is not a butterfly, Yet it is still alive, Fluttering in our hearts, so cold, Helping us survive..
I sniff the air, ears pricked up in alarm. Emris sits on the chair in the corner, head in hands, muttering to himself. He reeks of worry. "You've got to stop doing this, Arwen. Stop... Transforming.

I'll make myself a burrow,. And curl up in a ball,. Where nothing except me and my thoughts,. Really matters at all,. I'll block out all the shouting,. The violence on the news,.
Broken words, And broken hearts, Missing pieces, Missing parts, Loved the hope, You gave to me, But now it's time, To set you free..
Another story I wrote in English. Enjoy... My stomach did a somersault as I plummeted towards the shimmering blue pool below. How could I be so stupid…. I knew she was going to do something like this.
Sometimes I feel so very small,. Tears fall, I don't know why,. The ground just wants to eat me whole,. The earth wants me to cry,. I feel like I'm not needed,. In this universal plan,.
Soft beeping, Chemical air, You shouldn't be here, Life's unfair, Nurses whisper, Flowers lie, Beside your body, Please don't die... Gentle eyes, And greying hair, How will I cope, With you not...
Lying down, looking at stars, Here, I can see them all, A billion different worlds out there, I've never felt so small….

She lies there, eyes closed, thin blue veins decorating her translucent skin, her hair splayed out behind her in a ocean of darkness. I hold back a scream as I realise what she's wearing.
The darkness slowly takes it's toll,. Killing you inside,. Taking all your memories,. Till there's nothing left to hide,. Picking up your hopes and dreams,. Your secrets and your lies,.
Sent off to meet him, With a blow to the head, My life is not over, Though I'm lying there, dead, He greets me kindly, Eyes dark as stars, Hair like the mountains, So near yet far, I've known him...
A week without Opuss. :( Stuck in the rain, But please don't panic, For I'll be back again. I'm going camping in somerset for a week tomorrow, and my dad has banned iPods.
A continuation of my last Opuss… I watch Celyn walk off into the distance, then make my way inside the theatre, sighing deeply. The last of the audience slowly push open the door and walk outside.
Home. At last. The warm comforting smell of the theatre fills my nose and soothes me, suppressing the growl that's been caught at the back of my throat all day.
