After Awhile by Veronica A. Shoffstall, 1971
After a while you learn,
the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul,
and you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning,
and company doesn’t always mean security.
And you begin to learn that kisses aren’t contracts,
and presents aren’t promises,
and you begin to accept your defeats,
with your head up and your eyes ahead,
with the grace of woman,

A reblog for new followers. One of my favourite posts.
You’ll recognize her easily. She’s the one with a sharp mind of her own and tendency to speak what’s on it. She’s the one who has brought a classic novel with her to read in the doctor’s office waiting room so she isn’t stuck with People magazine. Her clothes are sensible most of the time and her style isn’t always based on fads....

The final say
I chop the block,
it is enough,
I left him,
but i feel grim,
no more of him for me,
and me for him to see.
everything has been a lie,
promised by a sly,
sweet words was all he had,
but it was all a facade,
he didn’t seem to care,
that my heart was bare,
Its all his for the taking,
but, alas, he is slacking,
when i did said my goodbye,
I am crushed by his reply,
he...
Unreciprocated love
Indifferent people should be shot,
thoughtless piece of lot,
they are careless and ignorant,
or merely blind and tolerant.
You show them you love and care.
but it seems they are more scared.
they resolve to show ignorance,
to feel cool and well-balance.
i should just leave that damn person,
to make him see what he is missing,
he is missing all the love i could give,
for that, it is...

“Human beings are funny. They long to be with the person they love but refuse to admit openly. Some are afraid to show even the slightest sign of affection because of fear. Fear that their feelings may not be recognized, or even worst, returned. But one thing about human beings puzzles me the most is their conscious effort to be connected with the object of their affection even if it...
we are most alive in dreams: Coming Home →
wearemostaliveindreams:
I write about people just enough to feel human. To feel as though I belong to something bigger than myself. To pretend I know the dirty little secrets that everyone keeps stitched in the lining of their skin.
But maybe we all read our own press too much. Or don’t press enough. Don’t squeeze and…

English 272: Tools to help with writing! →

We’ve posted about websites and programs like Write or Die, but these are a few of the writing tools that I’ve found to be helpful:
www.sixminutestory.com: This is a somewhat self-explanatory website. You are given a phrase, image or prompt and you must write a story about it in six minutes. The story can be as long as you can manage to write in six minutes. However, once the six...
Bike Riding
It sucks, i dont know how to ride a bike. I never learned and no one taught me how. I can just envy people maneauvering the handles, and peddle away as the wheels turn. I can only imagine the free blowing wind, the energize feeling as the person rides away to oblivion.
Music is love
The sweet song lullabies of music is just food to my soul. It is like breathing, it is the source of nourishment to my being. It is the source of happiness and hope. Of course! where would we be without hope?
Music is like praying without words needed. It is peace and clarity. It pumps up your blood like a prohibited drug. Rushing through your body, ascending from your ears to your brain. You...
