Oh...

Flying

Flying, flying,
Such a feat.
Soaring above,
feeling sun's heat.

Flying, flying,
Just like a hawk.
We're all a family,
We're all a flock.

Flying, flying,
So unreal.
This is what
It is to feel.

Carolyn (bookspirit99) Flying

Flying has become
A part of my very soul.
If I were to part
With my precious wings
I'd rather die!

My wings allow
Me to soar through the
High sky
As lofty as a bird
And ever so FREE!!

Free as a bird
In the clear,
High air
Next to the
Hot, hot sun
Which warms
My back
As I fly.

Flying is my freedom
To take it away
Would prove fatal
And such an act
Would only be seen
As "normal" not "obscene"
At the School
Where we all grew up,
In tiny dog crates.

Take away my flight
And you take away
What makes me ME!!

Fly or Die

I have a choice
To either fly or die
Both are tempting
Which do I choose?
Fly or die, fly or die?
If I die there will be no more pain
If I die there will be no more fear
If I die there will be no more fighting
Fly or die, fly or die?
If I fly I will be free
If I fly I will be strong
If I fly I will survive
Fly or die, fly or die?
It is time to decide
I choose to fly
As I spread my wings and fly
I am not scared of pain
I am not scared of being afraid
I am not scared to fight
On the other hand though
I am scared of not being free
I am scared of not being strong
I am scared of not surviving
Fly or die, fly or die?
It is simple now
I will fly so I will not die
I will die to be able to fly
And I will surely die if I can fly no more
Fly or die, fly or die?

message 15: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (bookspirit99) thanks *bashful face*


message 16: by [deleted user] (new)

Yourz welcome


message 17: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (bookspirit99) Do you think I have a talent for writing instant hit poems? (note that the one posted above was written in about 5 minutes)


message 18: by [deleted user] (new)

5 mins? Heck yea that's really good for 5 minutes! I did mine just sitting here in like I think 10 minutes.


message 19: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (bookspirit99) things flow into poems for me...tho I don't normally write poems


message 20: by [deleted user] (new)

Same with me, I just have a way with words when I want them to sound good and have meaning. I don't write poems either but I am writing a story and I'm starting a sequel to it :D


message 21: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (bookspirit99) I have the same way with words but when I try to write a story I can't make it flow in the same way...weird. I'm actually working on another (of my millions of ideas) of my stories now. Not going as planned. doesn't flow so good.


message 22: by [deleted user] (new)

Yea some parts of my story flows really well and other parts are really choppy


message 23: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (bookspirit99) I can write little paragraphs that sound really good, but writing a whole story crashes and burns every time.


message 24: by [deleted user] (new)

Poems are much easier to write than stories. They have a certain flow almost like a song to them. All entries are really good.


message 25: by [deleted user] (new)

Just take it one paragraph at a time then!!


message 26: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (bookspirit99) that's really hard because connecting them doesn't work.


message 27: by [deleted user] (new)

Oh true true


message 28: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (bookspirit99) yeah, what Maddie said!


message 29: by [deleted user] (new)

Hmmm...this is quite interesting....I feel like...writing one, but mine would suck...


message 30: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (bookspirit99) write one! It might be the best; but you won't know if you don't write one!


message 31: by [deleted user] (new)

Alrighty....its going to suck kind of, no matter what, and it wont have a format, but oh well...ill get on that...


message 32: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (bookspirit99) free-verse! it's why it was invented!


message 33: by [deleted user] (new)

Does it have to be a poem???


message 34: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (bookspirit99) yeah...it says poem right?? I pop into poem quickly...


message 35: by [deleted user] (new)

It actually says short story too...ill do that...I suck at poetry


message 36: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (bookspirit99) whatever, do what u be good at!

Hmm...Stuck With The Title Part


Alright, so here I am.
Im flying, which, a lot of you cant say you're doing too, but you never know.
Where am I, you might ask?
What time is it, you might also ask?
Who am I with, you might say, nosily.
To answer those questions...
I cant give you specifics.
This is my story, about actually flying, anyways.
So, let me get started.
I might as well introduce myself...
Im No One You Know, please to meet you.

So, lets start again.
I'm up in the air, soaring gracefully through clouds. Its not a perfect setting for cruising in the awesomest fashion...
In fact, its pouring down rain, and I cant see squat.
But, we adapt, learn, dwell, continue, and most importantly, live on.

So,. the rain is falling in heavy droplets, soaking me through, down to the bone. Im justtrying to get to somewhere...anywhere at all, away from this.

What am I running from?
Myself.

A break in the clouds, an odd occurance. Everything is bright and beautiful, Mr. Sunshine greeting me for the first time in days. I resist the urge to wave, and slow my course down to about 100 miles an hour. I take the time to notice how thick the clouds are. They aare like...fluffy mashed potatoes...perfect and soft. I wanted to lie down, sleep a little, but when you are on the run from yourself...
You cant do that.

I push my hair back with my hand, sighing deeply. I loose track of time, speed, altitude, sense of direction. A big ass jet could be speeding my way, and I wouldn't have noticed.
Typical, and thats exactly what happened.

Daydream, for a second, and I think of what it would be like to NOT be me...perfect, actually.

Then...

"Ow?"

And thats the end. My search is over, and then...

Splat

Guess who's wings didn't save them this time?

That would be yours, truly.


message 38: by [deleted user] (new)

mine is depressing...


message 39: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (bookspirit99) interesting... tho it doesn't have the feel of a depressing story...it's abrupt


message 40: by [deleted user] (new)

haha, I know...i wrote what I felt....since I have this odd sense of falling out of the sky, and going splat...and...its all over....the end.


message 41: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (bookspirit99) interesting. SPLAT!


message 42: by [deleted user] (new)

message 43: by [deleted user] (new)

message 44: by Carolyn (new)

message 45: by [deleted user] (new)

message 46: by Carolyn (new)

message 47: by [deleted user] (new)
