American "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooo......." / Wolves are legendary because of their spine-tingling howl, which they use to communicate. A lone wolf howls to attract the attention of his pack, while communal howls may send territorial messages from one pack to another. Some howls are confrontational. Much like barking domestic dogs, wolves may simply begin howling because a nearby wolf has already begun.
Why do we waste our time on people who don't even care about us? 'I'm fine.' 'You don't look fine' 'Then stop looking.' I'll never look at myself and see beauty. "It's always my fault." You broke her. You told her time and time again that nothing she does, ever, is good enough. Imperfections are beauty, madness is genius and silly is better than boring. "It's funny the ideas I come up with at late night. If only I was crazy enough to go through with em." -What a beautiful sight to see you alive. I'll pick up the broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding if that'll make you mine. Sadness touches everyone even the one's who shouldn't be sad at all I'm so broken. Leave me be. No. I want to fix you. **I am sick of waiting for something good to happen. ** -k

It must be hard being a stuffed bear. Everyone expects you to just Sit and stay In the same place Every. Single. Day. Life can be fairly boring Seeing the same sights, Doing the same monotonous work. But, on occasion, something happens That shakes the little bear's world. Maybe the master decides to move Or he brings in another That pushes the little bear farther And farther back into the corner Of shelf it is allowed. And through it all, The bear has to just ride the waves. Has to just accept what is And try to make the best of things- Even when it almost kills the bear too. But still the bear doesn't complain. It breaks down the older it gets And slowly feels forgotten Sitting up there on that shelf Gathering dust and debris. One day the stuffed bear's master Might throw the old ratty bear away But it will always be remembered As that cuddly, warm Made-everything-better, Stuffed Bear.

I wish I could be the werewolf The one who changes Every time they are called to do so But still one who knows where their true selves lie Enough to revert and remember who they were I wish I were the vampire Confident and Composed So sure of who they are That they are content to never change For as long as forever remains forever I wish I were the dragon Who could fly into a rage And show their lust for wealth and power Who hoard all their precious things And never have to let go I wish I were the unicorn With all the grace and innocence That wearing a white unblemished coat allows Without being called a hermit Simply for the select few that they allow to see themselves I wish I could be the phoenix All that fire and freedom Right at their feather tips Waiting and ready to be released So that they might be born anew But I am the Zombie The pointless, useless, stupid thing That slowly rots away Piece by piece and still manages To have that seemingly useless compulsion to try to keep going

Myth
Why are you the one To decide my fate Why are you the one Who’s allowed **** the me I know Making me bleed And hurt with no way Of bandaging the wounds? It’s like you like to watch me Slowly bleed away all I ever was And all I’ve ever known me to be Why is it that you Are the only reason I could find to be me? And why is it that you get to decide If you leave or not without caring What would happen to me? And even after all of this Why am I the one apologizing? For things I didn’t do I gave you my everything And you just threw it away With a few simple cruel words So now I’m wrecked And want nothing more Than to close my eyes and sleep But I’m afraid to because When I wake up there will be no you For the first time in years I will be all-alone

Why Did You Decide?
If her tongue were any sharper it would be a sword. *"It's so much fun watching the gears in his head attempt to grasp each other trying to understand our sarcasm."* A touch as light as one's first kiss... Silent shock of twinkling shards... rich, pure crimson flowing out of a wide and terribly long **** A sharpness of almost medical assault eyes widened by fear, consumed by darkness That frigid tone of disdain were the normal words heard from her throat Her words so sweet to be called almost honeyed But nothing that she says matters **** is the only thing I hear from her mouth *"Being a girl means you cry easily..." "But only Ingrates think like that."* The Haunting Rings of Love Ripped from the Clutches if Her Life by a Simple, Warn, Welcoming Smile Ms. VonFray screams and throw herself away; flying into life, seeing who she could be But of course Jay was unable to see it "They will hear it," Someday they will have no choice but to hear it. That beautiful shriek That silent scream that couldn't have been quite if it wanted to... "bibebamus!" or maybe it was bibit All I do is watch as the quill continues to speak all the stories it knows As all sound is finally silenced....

Synethesia
Who I see in the mirror Is not someone I recognize The voice that says my words Does not sound like mine And the things I touch I can no longer feel Just like the torn up heart That has yet to heal So I find my self Askin’ why Why is it I can’t realize That I am me not someone else I am the reality not the stories I live in this real world Not in the books and pictures That I have always wanted To lose myself in But who is to say That this is the world? Who is to say That there is not more? So I think I’ll keep believing and hoping That there is someone out there Who is me and someday I will recognize Who it is in that mirror And whose voice I hear Someday I will be able to feel Because my heart Would have been finally healed

Unknown Face
I cannot say things I do not know But I can say what I might wish to know Yet how to know what to wish to say Is still unknown to one Who does not know what to say About what I do not know And a wish is one of those things To be called unknown

To Name A Wish
Why is it that when ever I do Something you just give me a look? Your voice always speaks “Not good enough” What is it that I can do To be good enough? I have tried so many things and times But it still is not enough Nothing seems to ever be enough I have done everything you have ever asked Or forced me to do with out complaining Before I realized I wasn’t good enough When was it that you changed to this? When did I change? Remember when you and I could talk With out any doubt about What each other was saying? I cannot but I do remember The feeling of hate Not being there I do remember when you could hear What I was saying before my throat Had to **** it’s self screaming for you To even begin to listen Do you know of the nights where one word Was all it took to send water running down my face? Do you know of all the nights Where I didn’t let it show? When was it I changed to someone Who was afraid to let others anywhere near The thing I keep under lock and key Surrounded by a thick sheet of the hardest substance to crack? When was it I stopped letting Others get close to me? Why did I change so?

Questioning
I can’t wake them. I can’t wake them because if I do Then I’ll only be punished worse. If I let them, anyone, see me like this, Then I will lose any chance of hope I might have had left. I don’t want to lose them because, Even if they are the ones hurting me, I can’t make it on my own. I don’t want to be alone. These bruises and scars are nothing Compared to what little of a heart I started with. So I scream. I scream inside my head letting all the Pain and frustration and anger push at my skull. And I want to break. I want to just let it all go and loose my self, But I can’t have what I want. Cause if I do then what would I be after that? Sshhhhhh, Do you hear them? I can’t wake them. I can’t wake them because if I do Then I’ll only be punished worse. If I do, then they will leave me And I can't live without the pain It's the only thing that reminds me I’m still alive

All That I Have...
They keep saying let the sky be the limit But I don’t want that I want to reach far beyond The sky, the stars Letting my dream take me To where I can go And even after reaching The farthest place I can I want to try for even farther yet So why should I limit myself to the sky When there’s so much more?
