A dark, dirty alley. Covered in trash and graffiti, opens up to a garden of many flowers. The rainbow of color reflect off the waters that surround. Tall golden trees reach to the sky and spread their leaves, consuming the sky. As one the garden sways with the wind. Dancing apon the water. I walk deeper and deeper into it's maze. I find a large fountain, it's silver water reflects onto the flowers. The trees cast a dark shadow on my face sheilding me from the sun's gase. I see a figure sitting in the shade of a large oak tree. Your green eyes stare deep into mine, begging me to come near. I accept and lay on the bed of grass beside you. You wrap your warm arms around me and hold me close to you so that I cannot escape. Your beautiful face comes up close to mine and you press our lips against mine. I melt into your eyes and wrap my arms around your neck.I never want this moment to end. Me and you. In a world of beauty. In a world of peace. Us together. You and I. Holding each other in a world of lost words.

I am chained to the light that I reflect,
and yet my soul forever wanders.
I feel the spirit within me, but I shut it out
because it is not how I wish to be.
I try to reflect my heart,
but that spirit is weak.
A gray heart resides in me.
I am neither light nor dark.
I feel safe when I am in my shadows and night,
but I am not evil.
I am chained to the light.
I am chained to everything that I hate.
People call me names because I am different.
They do not Know what it is like,
to always be in the middle of all,
to be blinded by the light
when I search for my shade.
I am neither evil or good,
light or dark.
I am in the middle.
Always in the middle.
Even I am in the middle of things
I do not wish to be.
Sometimes I am in the middle
because I am protecting someone that I love.
I am chained, and I can not escape.

I wait in the dungeon, locked away. I am dressed in rags, and locked to the stone cold wall behind me. My rage is held fast, by chains on my hands and feet. They come and try to execute me, but I always survive. One even comes and tries to lure me into loving him with my freedom. I would rather stay here, in my darkness, awaiting my person just-for-me. Is there even such a thing, as love, or is it just a vain hope. An illusion. I wait in my lords castle, for the one who will truly set me free. I am here because I tried to run from who I am, away from here to find my freedeom. But now I cannot escape.
I must remain in this dungeon, till the end of time, until my person, just-for-me comes. I will wait years, decades, and till the end of the earth, just for the one who will set me free; my person just-for-me.

i wonder who my person just-for-me is...

[Shadowchild]

Red everywhere. Fire burns everything. Blood blankets the ground. Even the sky is red. Darkness and death surround, only one is left standing. To travel alone through the cold emptiness. She weeps tears of blood for the one she lost. Everyone, dead. And it is all her fault. She did not do it on purpose. She would never do such a thing. She would rather have death overcome her. Now she must travel, to another planet. As before. This always comes to pass, but this time was the last. Alone now she must go, never to see another. The lady of stone; fair and strong, yet she weeps. Tears of Blood; for always and eternity, till the end of time. Blood tears of sorrow for the one she loved and lost.

hope u liked it.

I did, actually. I think it conveys conflicted feelings of growing up and feeling trapped and confused about some things.

[Shadowchild]

yeah i guess so

[Shadowchild]

I used to have wings. I soared through the sky. Now I have no wings; They tore them off. They chained me to a mountain, for the dragon of death to devour. Dont they know? I am the dragon of death. I do not wish to eat anyone! I did not choose to be one of the dead. Because I am death, I shall never befall the same fate as all humanity, but live for ages chained and unable to escape. My wings have been replaced by blood that will forever trickle down my back. I hear the screams of those in pain. They do not know that I kept the death in place. Now people will die before it is supposed to be their time. Now since I can do nothing, death comes before its time, and it brings horrible pain and suffering. Fallen from the sky. The world will soon come to an end. One with no wings that was presumed a murderer but was the healer. A new species of fallen angel.

In this world everything is common. The lives of those on tv are the ones that I envy. This world is soo predictable and there is never any adventure. When i travel to my fantasy world, it is what I want in my life. I am not alone in my world. Many come and go. Taking their adventures back, trying to make the normal change. Nothing here ever changes, it always stays the same. In my fantasy world, people never get bored or depressed. They always have a damsel or loved one to save, or a demon to kill. In my world no one has to wear school uniforms or hand-me-downs. Everyone is a custome job, special and unique in every way. In my world, only the bad guys are ugly. People never die or get divorced. Disorders and diseases are uncommon unless wanted, and everyone with a disability will have a new life. The souls of the dead come there to stay. and the souls of the living are lifted up. I live, Immortal, in my wonderful fantasy world.

My knight in shining armor. Tall and heroic. Standing on a hill, staring at the stars. Oh I wish I could be with him, one last time. Now I have to wait. His place in my heart waits for him to return home. We found each other. He rescued me and unlocked my chains. I returned the favor, and died for him. Now I wait until he comes. I wait in the afterlife. Watching and waiting by the gate. For my knight in shining armor.

Night, the most mysterious time of day. I can lay down and stare at the stars. It is peaceful then. No one talks or screams in your ear. It is easy to hide in the dark. No one can see you.You can daydream and become lost in the sky, thinking and dreaming. The only bad nights are the ones with no moon; for reasons some may not understand. The white and gray beauty that lights up the night. Some animals also enjoy the moon. Wolves howl to it to find their kind nearby. Light and night should never truly mix. I despise the brightness of the light. It pains my eyes and you can't shut it out. The night seems even more remarkable when you can share it with your true love. Some even believe that their loved ones become the stars after death. Sometimes I wish that the night would never end, but then the poor people in china would have horrible sunburns. I pity those who are blind, for the night is something that everyone should be able to enjoy. Night is the shadows, stars, and the moon. Night is the everlasting beauty of earth.

You can be run through with swords till you swim in your blood. You can cut yourself, burn yourself. But no wound can ever go as deep as one on the heart.The battle of life is never over. People come. People go. People are hurt. People heal. People are born. People die. But that does noot stop them from fighting. Some wounds may heal, but some dont. A scar to the heart never heals. You can cover up an outer scar and forget it ever happened, but a scar on the heart is never forgotten. People try to hide the scars on their hearts. But no makeup or medicine can ever. Trying to cover up a scar on the heart is like trying to hide the sun in your pocket. A wound in the heart cannot be made by any physical thing. The hearts only weakness is people. A person is the most powerful weapon against a heart. You can never forget it when someone truly hurts you. But know this, you are not the only one who is scarred.

[Shadowchild]

[Shadowchild]

As I walk alone down the busy streets, people avoid my contact. People are afraid to come 5 feet close to me. The stores, shoppes, and restaurants close up and reopen after I have passed them by. Every building I try to enter turns me out as though I am trash. Why do people hate me so? I never did anything to hurt them. I never even spoke a word to them, and yet they still reject me. Just because I have wolf ears, sharp teeth, claws, and grey eyes does not mean that I am a demon. I save lives and destroy demons. I do not eat humans or drink their blood. Sure I enjoy a nice cooked fish every once in a while, but who does'nt? I dont eat things raw. I have feelings too. Why am I rejected? Why am I hated? I wish my beloved were still here. He was the only one who saw the true me. He could find the beauty in me past the black hair and grey ears. Behind the stone skin and cold eyes he found the true me. Not the outer monster, yet he still thought that I was beautiful even with the strange outer appearance. He thought that my strength and my image made me unique not wierd. Why do people always judge by looks? If they think that I look strange, they should look in my mirror. If they traded spots with me they would find the true meaning of rejection.

Alone I walk this earth. I pass by people of many types, but I do no not make contact. I am cursed. Everyone that I fall in love with will die a horrible painful death. I fell in love once. He did not even know I existed. A week later he fell, never to rise again. I always walk the earth alone. I have tried to make friends, but my curse always prevents me happiness. Why I am cured I cannot answer. Is it because I did a horrible deed, or have I done nothing. My family turned me out when they found out about my curse. I now hate all that are privelidged with love. They spend their lives in happiness, while I cry in a dark cave in agony. I loath all who can love, even the ones who do not wish to love are still blessed with their ability. The pain of remembering the one I loved is too much to bear. It is as though the devil is tearing your heart to shreds piece by piece. I wait for the day that my soul can rest in peace. For the present, my aching soul wanders the earth waiting for its turn to ascend. Now I must live always remembering that I am destined to be alone.

Rain. Falling from the dark sky. It trickles down my face as I look up to it. I stand in a park. It is empty. No one has dared to come here for fifty years. Alone in the rain I stand. The rain falling on me like snow in the winter. The dark sky pouring all of its sorrow and burdens on me. I always have something falling on me. Sometimes it is rain, sometimes it is someone's grief. I am used like a diary. All kinds of people pour out their feelings, emotions, saddness, grief, sorrows, and problems on me. I do not complain. I have never spoken a single word to them. I drag a huge boulder made from almost everyone's horrible feelings and emotions. I drag this burden to the end of the earth all alone in the rain. Through the rain and darkness I walk alone. Alone I pull at this burden till my fingers bleed a river. My body aches and bleeds. I am covered in cuts and bruises. These wounds and this burden are not my only problems. There are some that mock me and throw stones at me. Do they not know that I carry their sorrow for them? If I was not appointed to carry this for them, everyone would be just like me. It is almost always dark, my eyes have not seen the sun in ages. I cannot see the sun anymore. Where is the sun to break apart the pouring rain and darkness. I wait on the end of the road for the rising flood to lower. I am the one that is always in the rain, the keeper of all burdens.

what did u think?

[Shadowchild]

I ran away when they told me what you did. How could you do this? How could you do this to me? I thought that we could never keep secrets from each other. I thought that we loved each other. We were bonded together. You pulled away. You found another to bond with. You forgot me. You betrayed me. You threw me away with yesterdays trash. What led you to do this. Was it something I did? Did I hurt you in some way? Why did you leave me? We were one. We stood together through good, bad, and sad times. Then you forget about it and find another. We would hold each other till our arms were sore. We would write notes to each other during class till our fingers bled. We would talk with each other till our mouths became numb. How could you do this to me? How could you do this to us? How could you....

Yeah, no joke! Keep working, you've got some potential there!

The angel of darkness. Hiding in the shadows of an alley. One eye black, the other grey. Her hair is black and silver with red tips. Her skin is pale as though she was dead. None know her true name. Shadow is what they call her, evil. Her torn black wings carry her to her destination, Nevermore. I see her in the shadows her skin is covered in bandages hiding the marks of death. Her black and red warrior uniform covers some of the bandages but alot still shows. Her black cloak cover her scarred back from the whip marks. Some old some new. Blood seeps through the bandages, and drips off her wings and fingertips. Beaten till time cannot remember. She shudders when light reaches her eyes. She hides in darkness during the day. She speaks in my mind but no sound comes from her mouth. She used to talk with the one she loved, but he could not bear the toture that she faced. She had the voice of three angelics. Her music would lift her fans to the sky. Then he was gone. She would never sing again. She never spoke again. She cant see the light or she will become blind. Now she sits in her shadows. Black tears fall past her bound hands and feet and land on the cement below her. It mixes with her crimson blood. Leaving a pool of black tears.

Emerged from the darkness the cursed maiden came to be. Fair is her complexion yet cold are her eyes. Her skin appears soft and smooth yet at the touch changes the victim to stone. Those grey eyes hold a sense of longing for one like her. Another who knows what is like to be alone. Her hair black as the night flows with every move this lady of the darkness makes. the expression on her face is blank. Emotionless. Her voice is of three. Angelic, Demonic, and Human. Yet very little has been heard from this angel of darkness. Her white kimono blends with the snow that falls around her. Yet only drawing your eyes to her face. In the darkness her eyes glow like the blade of a sword in the moonlight. Her grey and white wings are torn and slender. They cover all sight from behind her. The imensity of the wings are no match for the wingspan of it when they gracefull spread apart. Yet very little have still lived to see this day after her eyes. She tries to hide those wings under a black cloak but nothing can hide their immensity. The tears that fall from her eyes land on the ground as frozen droplets of blood. Fair and fatal is this child of the shadows.

soooo?

[Shadowchild]

Let go of me! You cannot control me. I belong to no one. No one is my master. I serve no man. Dont touch me. Dont try to call me. I am not your pet. No cage can hold me. I am wild. I am unbreakable. You can put the collar on me but not the leash. I run free. You cannot bind me. You cannot tie me. You can never make me love you. You cannot kidnap me. You cannot keep me as your pet. You cannot catch me. No one can order me. I follow no one. I will never stand at your side. I will always be in front of you. Taunting your every waking moment. You will regret the day that you met me. I am an animal. I am fierce. I am ferocious. I am strong. I am sly. I am poisonus. I am toxic. Iam dangerous. I am unbreakable. I am unmovable. I am a stray. I am hazardous. I reak havoc in your life. I am the one and only. I am one of a kind. I am an original copy. I control my own life. I am deadly and you cannot keep me caged and in your grasp. I am an escape artist. I will slip righ through your fingers and break away. No one can keep me caged.

soooo?

[Shadowchild]

In the Forbidden Forest I wait for your return. My haven is here. My life is here. My home is here. The trees reach up to the heavens begging the angels to sing their heavenly song. The grass creats a bed for me to dream away my troubles.. The music of the forest fills my ears till I can no longer hear your shouts. The rain falls on my face as I look up to it and washes me till I am no more. This forest is where I belong. I know each breath, each sound of each falling stone and tree. I know it's mazes, I know it's stories. I know it's secrets that frighten people away. Here I stand alone awaiting your return from elsewhere. No one but you may enter this forest and leave with their life. No one may steal from my forest under penalty of death. No one knows the ways of this forest but me. No one but me knows the dangers and how to disable them. No one can find me in the darkness of my forest. No one can hide from me. I know about every newborn fawn, every new seedling, every star that peers through the treetops. This is my home, alone in my Forbidden Forest.

sooooooo?

"I am Unbreakable"

I have a shirt that says that. ^_^

Awsome, but are you reaaaaly poison?? =D

[Shadowchild]

yu could say that.... *bites sister* *she falls dead* yup!

[Shadowchild]

Screams.
Fire.
Lost hope.
Death.
Betrayal.
I lay here listening to the pain of the forest.
The trees cry out as they die, but you cannot hear them.
I and my kind are the only who can hear the forest speak.
Sadly, now I only remain.
Those humans came.
They destroy the forest.
They hunt for the Forest Spirit.
The screams fill my mind as the forest dies.
Those humans destroy it.
Soon the forest will die with the Forest Spirit.
The trees will no longer grow.
The flowers will no longer bloom.
The sky will turn black.
And the sun will never rise.
I lay here and await my death.
The humans are too blind to see what will happen.
I lay here and listen to the pain of the forest.

soooooo?

[Shadowchild]

The Sun and the dark side of the Moon.
That is what we are.
You are the Angel of the light.
Brown hair, beautiful green eyes, and white feathery glowing wings.
I am the Angel of the shadows.
Dark hair, cold blue-grey eyes, and black torn wings.
I love you Angel of light but I can never tell you.
The only time I can see you is at sunrise and sunset.
We cannot ever mix anyways.
It is forbidden.
We are to different you and I.
Black and White.
Shadow and Light.
Sun and Moon.
We can never be together.
I cannot even conjure up the strength to speak to you.
I follow you through the Shadow.
I guard you in your sleep.
The pain of your bright aura is immense, but for the sight of you I can endure,
I dont even know if you will love me back.
I know that most like me are evil, but I am not like them.
Hiding in the shadows watching you shine your light on the world.
I know that what I seek may not be there.
I may be blinded and follow an illusion.
My weak soul cannot handle this pain.
I cannot resist the thought of you getting hurt.
I cannot resist the thought that lures in my mind.
Is this a hopeless love between Light and Dark?

sooooo?
