Strands of gold and bright blue diamonds,
The first things that come to mind when I think of you,
Kind and strong, mindful sometimes wrong,
Stern yet steady always at the ready, to catch me when I fall;
Your mind a place where thoughts of me and my brother crawl-
Memories to be stored,
Your eyes saved for caring glances and stern stares,
Your lips for goodnight kisses, words of love, Reassurance and Authority,
Your arms and hands to hold and to help,
Your feet creating footsteps for us to follow,
I love you to no end so please know Mum,
You’re my best friend.
She was a fighter, she had a fire inside her heart
People tried to tell her she would never be smart,
but she didn’t listen, she didn’t obey
she stood up straight and walked the other way
she didn’t bend the rules she just continued with a smile
not letting anyone see she had turned to denile
still everyday she fought for what she believed
that she was still human, that she was still free.
I looked in the mirror as my breath came out in hiccups as tears streamed down my face my eyesight blurry. All I could hear was my hiccupping sobs and the voices in my head. Their voices.
“What a freak”
“Ew it’s the circus creep”
“Your such a weirdo”
“The neighborhood whore”
“You bitch!”
“Your such a pathetic excuse of an existence”
“Why are you even here?”
The voices, their voices it was all I could hear as the searing pain raced across my body as more and more pain was inflicted as more and more comments filled my mind.

When I was young
When I was six just like any little girl I dreamed of being a dancer to dance and look like a swan on a stage, light on my feet, dancing on tiptoe! to seem as if I was the wind blowing a gentle breeze. I dreamed of spotlights and classical music I loved to seem like a fairy. my room was covered in ballerinas, flowers, fairies and the colour light pink the same as all the tutus of the pretty, pretty ballerinas. When I was young I danced for fun but then I watched them leap, I watched them soar and I wanted to see more. Like any little girl the swift gentle movements of their wings captivated me and the high leaps and their side stepped springs

“When you are 13 years old,
the heat will be turned up too high
and the stars will not be in your favor.
You will hide behind a bookcase

You will pour an ocean into a diary.
When they find you, you will be nothing

still, tell them
Despite everything, I really believe people are good at heart.

a voice will call you to greatness.

Everyone has those days.
Those days when the alarm goes off and climbing out of bed feels like climbing Everest.
Those days when the simplest of tasks, like pouring a bowl of cereal, feels like an impossibility.
When it feels like you'll never smile again.
Or maybe cry forever.
The days when you wonder what the point is.
When eternal sleep is preferable to a life of misery.
But you don't give in.
You climb Everest.
Complete the impossible tasks.
Plaster on a smile and fake your way through the day.
You chatter cheerfully with customers.
Laugh and joke with your coworkers.
And every unkind word feels like a stab to your heart.

This is how to run a stick of Chapstick

Biology's Cruelest Joke
“Biology’s cruel joke goes something like this: As a teenage body goes through puberty, its circadian rhythm essentially shifts three hours backward. Suddenly, going to bed at nine or ten o’clock at night isn’t just a drag, but close to a biological impossibility. Studies of teenagers around the globe have found that adolescent brains do not start releasing melatonin until around eleven o’clock at night and keep pumping out the hormone well past sunrise. Adults, meanwhile, have little-to-no melatonin in their bodies when they wake up. With all that melatonin surging through their bloodstream, teenagers who are fo

Hi! I love Xynthiis but I cant deal with the drama anymore. I got rid of most of my Xynthii but I haven't seen any offers for this one I really want to accept. So I am raffling her off :D

2. be a watcher of mine (new ones are fine)

Let the voices within tell their story. As each one becomes just a bit more gory, waiting for the life promised after death, each one wonders how much time they have left.
