Will I mend again?What do you do...Will I mend again? by ~WolfieMeows
When feeling pathetic, low, lethargic, tearful, melancholic... As if something is missing inside of you, like a part ripped away from a complete honeycomb that was once so beautiful, bright, luscious in taste and protected.
My thoughts are slowing down, like a spider aging as the web is not spinned so nicely no more, and isn't catching anymore sources to befriend and to learn from, manipulate, hurt, love and cherish.
My body is heavy... it wasn't always like this, like a rock, an anchor. I remember jumping and groovin' to the beat, like a mamba slithering gracefully around the tree's branches.

To Catch a FlameTo Catch a FlameTo Catch a Flame by ~Geak-of-Nature
Little egg-shaped flame
dances merrily
across the countertops,
skips off the wall,
and flickers unpredictably
along the floor.
Frantically,
you run after it
with your cellophane sheet
almost surrounding it
but without success.
As it begins to take hold
of the napkin on the tabletop,
you drop your net,
deftly scoop it up,
hand it to me,
and I race outside

(with a fist full of warm cellophane)
where the sky is dark from rain

it sizzles momentarily,
and then only the sound
BatterBatterBatter by ~Geak-of-Nature
Crouched low,
he takes a strike.
Then immediately,
unreflectively,
he straightens,
steps back,
paws the earth,
takes a practice swing,
steps forward,
checks his helmet,
crouches,
takes another practice swing,
and then he waits for
the next chance
to hit the ball
(all while chewing tobacco).
child of the shadowsi am a child of the shadowschild of the shadows by ~freerainbowchildren
hiding behind the trees
or whispering in your ear, the breeze
i am a child of the shadows
shifting into a lark
can you hear me cry?
fading into the dark
no, you lie
because i am a child of the shadows
who cannot be seen
how can people be so mean?
i am already gone
down in the murky pond
water flowing over me
washing me away
