When will this end?
Mass shootings
Terrorist attacks
Police brutality

They say it's just a gun control problem
They say it cannot be fixed
I say the problem is deeper
I say there is hope

When will this end?
Income inequality
Veterans living on the streets, penniless,
Dying par their own hands everyday.

They say this world can change for the better
But nothing has changed...
And I truly do fear
Nothing ever will

When will l’amour start?
The jour we offer a hand to the fallen
Instead of cringing back in shock
And running away

When will our world change?
The jour we l’amour too much to kill
The jour others' pain is our pain
The jour we act instead of just talking about it

"It's impossible"
"We're too broken to be mended"
"It's a hopeless battle"
I say, let us try.

Unknown00 The day when all will unite as one. How long have I dreamed of a future like this... Not just America, the whole world is suffering, everything is crumbling... Having still hope is really admirable...

Just a few things before the story; one, if there's something toi don't like about it, please tell me! I want it to be as good as it can be. ^-^ Just please tell me in a respectful way, please. I would appreciate that. Thank you.
Also, this story will be a little (well, plus than a little) bloody and violent, and there may be some cussing later on. Just a warning.
That being said, I hope toi like it!

For toi were made in my image. Genesis 1:27

In me toi live and déplacer and have your being. Acts 17:28

For toi are my offspring. Acts 17:28

I knew toi even before toi were conceived. Jeremiah 1:4-5

You were not a mistake, for all your days are...

Millions of Miles Apart

From the moment your born somewhere out there toi have a true love. At less that’s what they say? They say there’s one person who has the same cœur, coeur strings as toi and they complete you. And there’s nothing that can keep toi apart from one another...But what if my one true l’amour isn’t here? I mean what if I never find him ou her if that’s the case which I hope it’s not. I don’t know what to say but I’m different from the rest...What if there’s no one out there for me?

.:~Water~:. (PLEEEEEEEEEZZZZZZZZEEEEEE READ!!!!!!!!)

posted by allicyn1234

Water
My only escape
Where for once my arms that are too pale and scrawny bend perfectly
Where I feel perfect
This is where my spirit will stay
When my body turns grey and dies away

Water
Where my legs that are too chubby ou fat kick so strong
I feel perfect
This is the place my spirit will stay
When my body turns grey and dies away

Water
Where pain only makes me only go faster
Better
Prettier
Perfectly

Water
Where my face that's not pretty in never seen
Hidden in waves that make me feel free
This is the place my spirit will stay
When my body turns grey and dies away

Water
When I used to stab myself with needles
And let the blood bleed out
Suddenly is the last thing on my mind
And when I do spill blood
It's only on the days my mom says I can't go
To the water
Where my spirit will stay
When my body grows old and dies away

    “So, do toi even know what your’e going to do about your dad thing?”
    “Obviously, I’m doing just fine. I can live par myself until I turn 18,” Samantha told her, agitated that she was asking that stupid question again

"We're leaving in two days to MonteNegro, and we're staying there for at least a week. Any questions?" Pamela raised her hand. "Are we living together for a whole week?" "Yes, Pamela, we are. My parents are going to borrow us a trailer, so whoever doesn't like to sleep in a tent can go sleep there. Anyone else?" No one else raised their hand. "Good. See ya'll on Sunday!"

Revealed when called upon
Permitting the dagger to
Deliver steely truths
Who does it hurt the most,
The victim ou the killer?
Sacrificed knowledge comes with damnation
You’ll be in hell before knowing this
Blessed par curiosity
Cursed with wicked hate

Speaking words shaper than glass
Not cushions to lay upon
Take the cruelty and use it for your benefit
Or shun the blinded wisdom
Refuse to accept any of the words
Too much experience for fifteen
Too much madness from simply looking
Deny this as toi always have
Repetition will be my death
In a vain attempt
Prayer for an ear
A privilege of being a friend

Whatever Happened to the Days?

posted by LovingLucy

I sit and wonder…
Whatever happened to the days?
Watching BSG and Lost with Charles,
Playing étoile, star Wars with him,
And Shortys?
Whatever happened to the days?
Of Josh helping me through the grief of my father’s death.
Whatever happened to the days?
Of chicken and egg salade sandwiches at the SUB and take-out Chinese for dinner?
Whatever happened to the days?
Of GIRLS NIGHT OUT!
Whatever happened to the days?
Of spring at KU?
Whatever happened to the days?
Of KU’s waterfall and walks at midnight…
Whatever happened to the days?
Of all my Friends at KU, and what great Friends they were.
Whatever happened to the days?

A Little Too Curious (part 2)

posted by noahnstar1616

I felt like I was under a hypnotic spell. I couldn't control anything. I stopped when the water got a little past my waist. I then heard myself start to chant. I didn't know what I was saying, but like I a dit before I had no will power. As I was chanting, the waters started to fizz. The plus I chanted, the plus the waters fizzed. Then a strong head wind came. Thunder clouds formed in the sky out of nowhere. I stopped chanting and the water settled down.

As it began to rain, I walked back towards the plage shore. When I stepped onto the beach, I instantly turned back to normal. I ran back home...

Unknown: Chapter 3

I suddenly feel extremely sad and miserable. I realize that my Coca-Cola is gushing on the floor. I quickly clean up the bubbly mess.
The phone beside me rings. "Hello?" I say.
"This is-" a man starts, but I immediately hang up because I know it's some weirdo asking for money ou whatever.
Cautiously I turn the TV back on, desperately hoping that something sane appears on the screen. For extra measures I change to a aléatoire channel.
It turns out I stand corrected, because I have the best of timing to turn on the TV just when Wyatt Starmount gets a sword in his neck. I shriek and try to shield myself...

Modern jour Princess Ch. 12

Grandma felt extremely guilty. She thought it was all her fault; she'd tried to set me up with Foster in the first place. I tried to convince her it was my own choice; my own mistake, but she still blamed herself.

But I had other things to worry about.

One jour at school, Echo wasn't there. I wouldn't have been so worried, if people weren't freaking out about it. I kept hearing Echo's name a dit in the hallways, along with "did toi hear?" The teachers in some classes even told kids to stop talking about it; it was none of their business. But it was mine. She was my best friend, and I didn't even...

"You likehim?!" Echo said, somewhat surprised and disgusted. "Why?!"

"I don't know..." I whimpered. I hung my head. This was all so confusing. Echo took a bite of her sandwich, and watched me for a while. She swallowed.

"Well, iff toi do... That's fine. I mean, just because I think he's a jerk doesn't mean..." she didn't finish. That was my problem as well. He did seem kind of a jerk. I still didn't understand why I like him. I put my hands to my face and groaned. Echo chuckled. "Love sucks..." I nodded.

"Dude! What're y-- oh. Hi, Irina," he a dit unenthusiastically. I waved. Blake looked back at me, still waiting for an answer. I couldn't give him one; what was I going to say? He looked at the drinks spilled all over me.

"Oh, I'm sorry! Did I spill your drinks? Want me to buy toi some plus coke? ou was it Pepsi?" he offered. Coke? That was better than what I was coming up with.

"Uh, no! It's fine!" I shouted loud enough for him to hear....

    It was around one when I left the house. I couldn’t walk far, for it was dark. I hailed a cab. I told the cabbie to drive to a cathedral, near a small suburb, just outside New York City.
    I didn’t dare close my eyes during the taxi ride. I did not need any images to play behind my eyelids. The dream had been all too real.
    After a ride down streets I could not name, we arrived at a tall, brick cathedral. I paid the cabbie, and got out of the car. He drove away. I walked up a few steps to the wooden door. I pulled on the...

Gone Forever

This is a short story a wrote a few months back :)

He woke up thinking it was just a dream, then reality hit him, it was not a dream at all, it was the truth. He fell to his knees and cried out to God, “Why did toi do this to me!” he then fell to the ground sobbing, his whole body was shaking, he wanted to numb the pain. After a while he got up slowly and walked to the refrigerator and pulled out a beer. He then moved to his canapé and turned on the TV, he did not watch it; he just needed something to drown out the silence. He took a sip of his beer, he had large bags under his eyes, his...
