He goes away today With a smile on his face And a confident walk; A spring in his step. Dressed in army fatigues, Proud of who he is, Off to serve the people For queen and country. To the desert sun, I watch As I wave him off. I wish I co…
It's funny, you know Because we're human We're all the same inside Same species Same model, if you will And yet we're all different And so we fight And we disagree And then comes the hatred Anonymous letters Under false names And feelings h…
Once upon a time there was a girl who lived in an ivory tower. She wasn't clever, or important, or a good person, but she thought she was, and that was why she was there. She was locked in and no one visited her. She soon died of thirst. An…
You made me Fabricated me slowly From the scraps on the floor Through your care Your infinite attention And your problematic mind I became one being One person Through you I became me You shaped me like clay Moulded by your hands Pushed int…
The sun shone down on me As I crossed the street And I saw a stranger wave to me And I smiled and carried on with my day. The clouds glowered down on me As I bought coffee And a stranger served me and grinned And I paid him and carried on …

If I had a home You could come on in I'd make you tea 'Two sugars, am I right?' If I had a car I'd take you for a drive Wherever you liked 'Which junction is it?' If I had a heart I'd fall in love with you I'd stop hiding away 'I want to …
I haven't been using Opuss regularly of late. There are reasons. Internet bans, my iPod crashing, lack of inspiration. But it was mainly because lately I've been feeling pretty damn rough. I'm still so busy with all my schoolwork, revision,…
I've been trying to hide from the world. And I thought it had worked. Maybe they had gone away, And they wouldn't bother me anymore. But no matter what I did, or do, They always find me again. Even if it takes years, they find me. Like a pe…
It took me two attempts to swallow the pills that night. The methadone was bad enough, but at least the tablets were small. The anti-depressants were huge, difficult to swallow. I spat and retched in the sink, staring at the white paste tha…
They told me to come and dance, They told me I should jive, But now I think about it, surely I am only half alive? Underneath my unmarred skin Lies blackened flesh and bone; Rotting like the deadened corpse. Side effect; I'm left alone.
Hailstones pounded the sodden earth, whistling through the chill April air and raining blows on Luke's head. He felt nothing. Sitting on a rickety wooden bench on Hampstead Heath, he was numb. He was wrapped up in a ratty old black trench c…
My callous hands are waiting My spiteful body crawls But whatever is this daydream? I just can't have it all.
Just want to let anyone who hasn't seen the Hobbit know that it's the best thing since sliced bread. It is AMAZING. I want to see it again but it isn't showing in my town anymore so I'll have to wait.
I went out for some milk three days ago, I met Dali in the street, he knocked me off my feet.
Roses are red Violets are blue I wouldn't be here If it wasn't for you Tulips are yellow The leaves are green Where my life's going Remains to be seen The earth is brown The ashes are black But I've got to keep going I mustn't look back …
I'd go into that shop My favourite of them all CDs, DVDs, you name it I'd buy as much as I could Seventy quid at a time 'Blown' on disks of plastic What a waste, mum said But they made me happy And now HMV's gone bust So I guess I'll have…
A boyfriend. A job. A talent. A social life. A bit of peace. A good immune system. Any clue of when to stop. Hope. Faith. Time to decide.
I drove a nail in the bottom of my walking boot So I wail every time I hit the floor I'm dragging and a-bleeding, I'm begging and a-pleading Cause I thought you had another and you cannot have another lover.
Hidden under layers of clothing, my scars stand out only to me. I can feel them itching their way into my dreams at night. They rupture fresh and shatter my hopes but I can't hold on any longer. I cling to the broken cliffs of my mind, f…
Oh, bleak and bitter day, I beg of you, Please take me up in your thrall. Powerful winds and battering blizzards, And I lose sleep each night as owls call.
Lucinda stinks of cigarettes, Hardy smells of weed, Sammie ran away from home, Josie's pregnant at sixteen. Is this the state of society Or did they bring it on themselves? No one wants to know, you see, So they melt into the background.
Apparently it's going to snow this weekend where I live. I really hope so, not because I'll get a day off school... Well, okay, maybe that a little bit. But mainly because this town is ugly and boring, and the snow makes it beautiful. I can…
Seething darkness, white hot water, Save your son and save your daughter. Monster comes and takes the blood, Leaves dead and dying in the mud. Knowledge comes and knowledge goes, But this is something no one knows.
Hall of mirrors, hall of dreams, My brain's bursting at the seams. All I see is shattered shapes: Glass shards in a frozen lake. Wings and feathers beat the sky, See the awe in wide-open eyes. The angels come down to destroy. The fate of…
Hello darling, how are things? The bell echoes in my head as it rings. The fire and ice don't make sense, So I'll just stay here with you instead.
I want to wake up and smell the cigarette smoke as you sit staring out of the window into the mist. I want to taste the metallic tang of coffee in the air as the mug sits steaming by my bedside. I want to see your bright blue opalescent e…
Under the cover of a beautiful day I am walking, silent and swift. But all is not still inside my head; I am screaming, screaming, weeping. Searching for the darkness within; Whatever is keeping me here. Trying to find the essence of me Tha…
Carrying me on the tides, it flows; The sea, black as night-sky clouds. I flounder and splutter harshly In the icy doom that lies around. I am dying, inhaling water and freezing, My limbs stiff as if I was already dead, My eyes closing, I …
I can't dance and I can't sing, But I could show you everything. So come with me, just take my hand, I'll bring you away to a wonderland.
'I can't come over, I'm busy.' 'I don't want to talk to you right now.' 'I've got to study on the night of your party.' 'No one will talk to me, so why go?' 'I can't wear short sleeves, I'm too pale.' 'I don't want you to see my scars.' …
Just when I think I'm better, I start to get much worse. And at the moment I'm sinking; Feels like I'm under a curse. But I guess it doesn't matter If I lose all that I am. In the end I guess I'll find it. As long as I'm alive, I can.
New year, new me? No. I'd much rather stay as I am. No matter how imperfect that makes me.
And as the world comes to an end I'll be there to hold your hand Cause you're the king and I'm your lionheart. -Of Monsters and Men
I've sold my soul to the devil And crept through darkening nights. I've seen what's in the distance, And it doesn't seem too bright. But I'll carry on regardless; I know the way I must go. The future is a patchwork quilt And my duty is to s…
I'm not looking for attention. I'm looking for help.
I see him and I wonder: Is that the real him? Or is it just a front That he wears to show us That he's okay, he's fine; Living his life happily. Although he could be sad And we wouldn't know. Because take it from me, Someone who knows the …
Stay up till midnight, See in the year, But then you can't sleep For the gathering fear. Your heart is a land mine Waiting to blow, And the fireworks seem To make it want to go. So you stay up again And see in the week; Searching far and …
Hello, everyone. I'm going away for a few days, to my nan's house. We always spend Christmas there, and I normally go a few days early to help her sort everything out (and eat all the chocolate). However, my nan doesn't have a computer and …
He stands on the brink of heaven Looking down on the mortal earth. Staring at the woman he fell for; The woman who lost him his wings. One brief moment of forgetfulness, A passionate embrace, a kiss, Then gone for good. Because some women…
Love is a thing to be treasured. To be held close and to be grateful for. So next time you're angry because your partner doesn't always cuddle you when you want and takes a while to text back, think about those who aren't loved. Those who h…
He was white dusk in the blackest of days. He was a tower of light in the darkest night. He was afternoon sunshine that warms your back. He was cheerful laughter in a room full of silence. But now that he's gone there's nothing at all. …
Hospitals never used to scare me. Not even when I was very young. I remember when I was about four, I had to go to hospital and have a tooth taken out. It didn't worry me in the slightest. When I was seven, I broke my arm and had to go to h…
The shivers roll down my spine The river's banks wooded with pine The cold air hitting my bare arms But hold me close as the breeze calms.
My English teacher gave me entry forms for a poetry competition and a story competition. I'm thinking about entering both. Apparently entering lots of them can increase your writing ability and give you plenty of practise. So, here goes.
What have I become, my sweetest friend? Everyone I know goes away in the end. And you could have it all, my empire of dirt I will let you down, I will make you hurt.
Attics full of junk and memories Pathways to worlds you used to know Boxes stuffed with china, glass, and pots The things you once loved and left behind.
Wrung out tight and left to dry Like a cloth you hang in wait All the love drained from your life Pink water slipping down the plug hole.
Stuck inside, curtains closed, Light filters in on your face. And you hear his voice in his head, Telling you to get up and go: Get out into the world again, Make a bet, take another chance, Encouraging you to find it; That perfect thing y…
Earth, fire, water, air Bound in solid stone Blood, chaos, darkness, light Brought to this sweet home. The comet came and gave the children Einmyria's blessed ones Their powers equalled by none other To right Aquila's wrongs. Progeny of t…
Weary one Wander roads less travelled Looking for a home Searching for family Over hills and valleys To the village by the lake Houses, stone and yellow brick The place you came from The place you belong
Sometimes we become heroes, not by doing something brave and wonderful, but by simply being there and inspiring people with the words we write and the things we create.
Feeling scared today Write down 'I am okay' A hundred times the doctors say I am okay I am okay I'm not okay. Skin is crawling off Mopping the sweaty drops Sticking around for this shit Another day Another day Not another day. Pink pill, …
Morning air, winter's day: Clouds of sinuous smoke Billow up from the chimneys. Evening wind, winter's night: Two planes, together they twist Around in a dance of the sunset.
*Unfinished* Stretch of years between child and adult: Only five or six but don't it seem long? The teenage years where time stops. So many things we do and see: What we are and what one day we will be, Loves and wishes, hopes and dreams.…
He used to have it all: Money, friends and love, A good relationship with life And the world around him. But after a while he faltered. As the years passed by he slipped And he became someone else. His hair dyed black, Away from its natura…

There comes a time in everyone's life when you realise that you have to let go and just leave it behind because it isn't worth the hassle. That time in my life is now. My friends had a massive argument, one of them screaming insults across …
I don't even want to try anymore. I'm so confused about everything. Is my best friend really my best friend? Is she worth the struggle? Am I really in love with someone I haven't a chance with? Is he really ignoring me or just not clos…
Some are born great, some become great, and others have greatness thrust upon them. And some are just not that great, to be honest.
I will always be A storm on the sea Flashing lightning Thunder and rain I fly far away Through glory days Tempestuous wind Soon to die.
I was on my knees Breaking down When you picked me up And told me that I Could do anything As long as I tried Painted the words on the wall You told me I was a miracle You gave me hope And you gave me strength To carry on. But now you've g…
Drop dead, they hiss Through gritted teeth As I pass by They turn away But the whispers stay It's all just the same The hate and misery Nobody seems to know Where it came from Where it started All I know It's driving me to despair.
I shiver Same as I do every time You touch me But in the winter night In the cold You shiver too And we are together The way we're meant to be
*Just to be clear, this is a story* The morning light shines down, grey flat clouds filling the day. The sounds, the sights, the character of the city still glimmer everywhere. It seems wrong. The cars should be silent. The people should w…
Safety pins on black fabric Jackets pulled around cold arms Icy breeze around concrete walls Pieces of carpet tossed on the floor Graffiti'd murals, mortar slabs Heavy wooden desks and chairs Grey, grimy, damp, dark Rooms too huge to be hea…
I can't stand seeing the people I love suffer.
So. That's it. Friendship over. He defriended me on facebook without telling me. He didn't give any indication he didn't want to be my friend. He's just started ignoring me. So that puts the count of friends I've lost this year up to about …
Was I made to be a hero? Cause I don't feel like I am. I don't know how to save him But I'll do all that I can. He's the only one who loves me And I watch him fade away. He's the first one that I cried for And I do again today. Each day I t…
I wear my scars plain upon my skin The marks standing out against whiteness Ugly and brutal though they may be They are the evidence of my life Scars on my feet from the distances I've walked Scars on my hands from the animals I've handled…
I don't know what's wrong with me. One minute I hate everyone and want to be alone forever, the next I'm crying and wanting someone to hug me and hold me and tell me it's okay. Even though it's not okay.
I hate that feeling you get when you see someone you used to be close to and can't decide if it would be weird to go up and say hello.
So, it's finally begun. College and sixth form open days. There was one tonight I should have gone to, but missed. It was at a college I would have no chance of getting to every morning without moving nearby, since it takes about an hour an…
To a writer, the truth is no big deal Noah and the whale- L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N
I've started to block out my emotions so that I can't feel the pain anymore. I don't want to feel the way I feel now. Unwanted. Unloved. Useless I'll give you an example of this. Our form is divided into groups of people who hang out toget…
All I want is nothing more To hear you knocking at my door 'Cause if i could see your face once more I could die a happy man I'm sure When you said your last goodbye I died a little bit inside I lay in tears in bed all night Alone without …
I read the stories they write for you I read the false ones and the real ones too The real ones hurt me more than false ones ever do Cause, God, how my stupid feelings are true I watch you walk by every day, every week The way your eyes lo…
They say that when one door closes, another opens, but right now, the doors are sticking and I'm trapped in a dark grey hallway with nothing.
I wish life was like a game; games have reset buttons.
So... I have done something which could have been good, could have been bad. I haven't decided yet, but who cares? I wrote a letter to Noel Fielding. The man is a hero to me, and I've wanted to contact him in some way for months. I know he…
If I should fall to endless sleep I shall tell you, do not weep My body may crumble and rot away But my soul will forever stay.

Strange tastes Frozen wastes Broken dream in the echo stone Open eyes Softly cry Heart beats slower than the footsteps go.

People are like cars in the rain. You can try to avoid them, but there'll always be one who has to run through the puddle and dampen your mood.
That night was hazy. I know the exact time the blade sliced my skin. 11:02pm. I know the time the blood finally stopped flowing. 11:38pm. Little else is clear in my mind. I don't know why I did it. I don't know what I did afterwards. All I …
I've never had a word for my religion before. I've believed for a long time that all gods exist; all that have ever been believed in or will be believed in. I've spent years explaining this to anyone who asks, and filling in data forms with…
Is it so hard to tell me the truth and just tell me you don't want to me my friend anymore? Don't just leave me in this limbo, ignoring me, leaving me out. Say what you've got to say and leave me alone. Sometimes the truth hurts, but that's…
I had a feeling today I have never felt before, of seeing someone I love, really love, and feeling like the bottom dropped out of my stomach. It was so entirely odd, and I had to fight not to gasp. But I spoke to him, at least, and now we'r…
It was a long day, that day The same as every other The stars shone bright and cold And we were all quiet as mice We knew what was to come soon We all knew what would happen The events to come about were wrong We didn't understand why it …

Changing pace, my thoughts abrade As I walk this dusty track And the deeper sounds of nighttime Can never hold me back I write nonsense and I scatter it Wherever I may go The words float in the river of prose In dark rapids they glow Stardu…
Goddamn misery, all I seem to know now It's becoming tiring, to say the least I just want some change from the endless routine Some surprise to end the drudgery of the day.
Oh, god, help me pick up the pieces. My world is falling apart again.
Everyone seems to be telling Opuss all about themselves, and I realise you don't know a whole lot about me, so here goes. I'm fifteen years old and I live in England. But forget about me having a posh accent- my family are common as muck. …
In the deepening hours of darkness I lost sight of my cares And though I searched for them all over I couldn't find them anywhere I panicked almost straight away I ran around in terror But this wasn't helping me I wasn't getting any closer …
I want to go to London town Where the pigeons roam Cause this tiny little village Can never be my home I've journeyed back and forth And I've never found my place But now I can feel it all A smile can grace my face I'm home tonight, I'm ho…
Last night I felt the need to pray for the first time in months. I thought I was regaining my footing on this world. I was wrong. The rate I'm going, I'll lose all my friends and probably get kicked out of school. Not that I'll care very mu…

Every day, every night I tell myself it'll be alright I've never believed the lies I tell myself.
The worst way to miss someone is when you're standing right next to them, but you know you'll never be with them again.
Fallen deities calm open water with whispers. Angelic helpers bring fire in zinc buckets. The flames douse the water and flare up. Schools of fish swim away into the fiery deep. Human bodies float their way ashore in the murk. They are…

He's gone. And so am I.
It seems a long time since I lived. I mean really lived, instead of just existing, just passing through the mindless drudgery of the daily routine. When I was younger, I was innocent, unsuspecting. I didn't know the world. I didn't know how…
Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass. It's about getting out there and dancing in the rain.
For a long time I thought perfection didn't exist. I thought it was the schoolgirl's dream. Dreaming of the perfect boy to sweep you up. Take you far away to a fairytale kingdom. But I learnt that perfection isn't false. Perfection isn't th…

Once upon a time is how it begins. But what about happily ever after? Fairy stories don't exist. Why didn't I see it sooner? There is no happy ending for us. For the common person in the world. We lose our way so easily. And we break our f…

This is what I said to my friend in Chemistry earlier: The world is strange, people are strange. Some are little stranger than others, and some have a dose of stupid thrown in. Those people are not good people, because they don't know when…
Nothing is impossible? Ha! Whoever wrote that obviously never tried nailing jelly to a tree.
I had lost myself, so I tried to look myself up in the encyclopaedia. There was nothing there but blank space, so I put it back on the shelf. I picked up the next book, but it slipped from my hands and shattered into a million tiny glass sh…
Oh, bleak and weary day Bring your stark grey over me If I lie on the ground and stare up at you Will you bear me to the sky? Will the clouds engulf me Like a comforting blanket? Will this bleak day take me up To stand by the sides of my go…
I have taken all of the pictures from my walls which no longer appeal to me and which aren't relevant to the things I like now. The walls look so empty now. I need more pictures.
I would just like to point out that I am wearing a poncho and a Stetson. It's impossible to be unhappy in a poncho :)
His name is Avery. He's the kind of boy who keeps to himself, who stays in the background. He's been around for a while: sixteen years. But he knows that he is still naïve about the world. He was naïve about love for a while. Then she came …

I have to go to school again tomorrow. What fun. Not. Apart from the past week, my holidays have been crap. Yet I still don't want to go back to school. Go figure.
Well, I spent yesterday in Camden. I am now aching all over, fifty quid poorer and exhausted. But god, was it worth it. I have never seen so much stuff in one place. My friend and I found sequinned dress shops, shops selling Totoro bags, st…
Well, rock school is over now, and it actually went really well. Last time was a nightmare, but this has been amazing. In our rehearsals for the finishing gig, I messed everything up and forgot all the words, but in the actual performance, …
Off to rock school in less than an hour. I'm kind of scared, having not really spoken to anyone for ages, and given that when I went last year, it ended in disaster and I lost a good friend. Even so, I'm determined to be optimistic. One of …
You know you need to do something when your hair is starting to look like Tim Minchin's. In other words, I look like my hair has been chemically straightened. I don't even know how that happened. Also, I start Rock School tomorrow. It's a t…

It seems that nearly everyone I know is bitching about my friends. I've left Facebook and twitter and I'm not going back until I go back to school after summer. I just don't want to hear their cruel words.
So. Things have gone up and down. Mainly down. I haven't actually seen anyone except my family since the summer holidays began. But that hasn't stopped my friend pouring her heart out to me over facebook, leaving me with no idea of how to h…
The night draws in around me Like black velvet wrapped across us Warming my arms like a blanket Giving me refuge from the endless pain Calling my name in the nighttime I hear him stumble as I sleep Fruitless searches for my missing parts My…
I got bored and drew a flower on my foot. I'm not sure this is normal.
On Friday I came back from Berlin after spending four days there. It was my first time abroad, and I found it really really weird not knowing what any of the signs said or anything like that. But it was also my first time flying, and I have…
Oh god. My friend, who recently had to go to hospital after passing out randomly, has now been dumped harshly by his girlfriend. I've seen him twice, both times looking like life couldn't get any worse for him. I need to talk to him and tel…
Okay... I've gone from a rank of 1000-ish to 450 in a couple of weeks... I'm not complaining, but what the hell?
In two weeks time, I'm going on a four day trip to Berlin. We're doing so many amazing things, like a street art tour and climbing this really tall tower that you can see the whole city from the top of. It's gonna be my first time abroad an…
Blood on the butcher's slab, dripping to the ground. Marble steps leading to a throne room made of fire. Twisted crowns, molten metal, fall down and solidify in squares. Creeping vines strangle all those who pass near. Tiny yellow notes…
New project is at hand... I'm going to find all the drawings I've done since I started secondary school, put them together, and... I don't know. Burn then cause they're so bad, probably.
It's little things that make it better That is why we are together.
Well, today was my school sports day, and my last one at this school, as I'll leave before next year's. It's not been a good day. Not at all. First of all, someone in my form left today. I've never been close to her, but her best friends ma…
If life was easy, what would be the point? The whole reason we live is to overcome our daily struggles and become better people because of that. I have it tough sometimes, we all do, but I muddle through. I just pity people who believe that…
I have food poisoning. Dodgy barbecue food DX
I believe in all the ancient gods. If I went out in the rain, and called Thor's name, I can never help wondering if he'd come... Maybe I'm living in a dream world, but meeting a god would certainly make my day. No, my life. Actually, it wou…
I feel the night air flow over me With its cool embrace surrounding Enveloping my exposed limbs Letting me into the summer The summer gone wrong The summer we've lost again.
Everyone knows someone who can't admit they're wrong, don't they?
Lay me down in shallow ground Let the Earth swallow my soul Let these lights be what I found Let everything I leave stay whole. Let the rot be slow to come Let the heartbeat end in peace Let my broken mind be fixed And taken on, taken away.…
I give up with fiction. Writers block is the worst.
