Battle Against Myself

Old insecurities.... that I thought I banished.. broke out of their leash.. to come and haunt my dreams. I'm sure I'd murdered them I even buried them.. somewhere deep inside my heart in that corner torn with hurt.. Not even unmarked graves were enough to hide all my pain all the time... So I ran overseas in tears... to get rid of all my fears.. But all of that was for naught...  didn't matter how hard I fought... the waves pushed me right back here back into this life full of despair I have tried everything... but nothing is erasing All those insecurities... keeps coming back for me I'd pushed them far away... locked them in a secret safe... But look at what I've become.. a coward afraid to face....her own insecurities.... I can't keep running from all of my biggest fears..  I know it will catch me soon.. Maybe I'll just wait till June I know I'm fighting a loosing battle.... but....thinking of confronting it just makes me rattle... all this is possibly...

Hurt a Friend (Poem) - Aafiya

Image
                               Hurt a Friend I accidently hurt a friend don't know how to mend I think of all the time we spent I don't want it all to end. I said something as a joke But she thought it was a mock I didn't think before I spoke I've been thinking about it since I awoke. I used to be her secret keeper But now she thinks I am just another attention seeker. All I can do is sit afar and watch as our friendship grew weaker and weaker. I used to braid her hair while she told me about some book she just read Now look at where a little joke lead I don't know where this will head I remember playing truth or dare talking about boys and what clothes to wear. gossiping about pairs, and listening to you swear I don't want to loose this, you're really giving me a scare. You can't end this friendship, don't you dare I am living, in my worst nightmare Please come back to me, I still care I'd rather have you, ...

To Keep Myself Awake...

Image
 To Keep Myself Awake... Seated in the History class,  I nearly fell asleep. So Boring was it that, I looked around me, and saw all my friends drooping. Not sure what to do with my time, I started writing randomly although I wanted to sleep badly, but I couldn't, sadly.. If I end up sleeping, My tears will end up leaking And I will end up freaking And look like a weakling.. I try hard not to sleep or I will have to weep, cos the teacher is a creep, and wake me up and screech I knew if I had a pillow, I'd snore right now and score zero.. But I'm no Dumbo, So I try to follow... I heard bits and pieces of how Hitler murdered millions.. and tried to stay interested although they went over my head... Losing interest once again, I looked out of the window, trying hard, but almost failing to keep myself awake I think of other ways,  to keep myself awake Until dreams carried me away, and made me think of that one day.. I was in our yard, With my sister laughing hard about that ti...

                                                                         LOKI Chapter - 1 Mystery of the Missing Glasses Summer started only a week ago. Mia was really excited to come back home after the long term. She went to a boarding school about 60 miles away, because there weren’t many secondary schools in their tiny village. She’d just woken up, the weather was lovely outside. She sat up with a smile and reached out her hand to the bedside table. She was unfortunately among those few unlucky people who had to wear glasses at all times. So when she couldn’t find them there, she panicked. She gave the table a ones over, but her glasses weren’t there. Her vision was lousy without them. Still sleepy but very worried, she searched the table and everywhere else she could think of. Half an hour passed, an...

Road to Success - Poem

Image
One cannot live without failure  There is no victory without a battle  Won you have if you face it  Loose you will if you retreat  You cannot avoid the inevitable  You can only postpone it.  But when you finally confront it,  Give it your best -  Stun it, then shun it  And move on with life  Live like a sun  Shine as bright as you can  Give it your best.  Have fun, Don’t run  Rise high, Keep up.  Try again in case you fail.  Never give up.  And this is the road to success  For know that Success is failure turned inside out  Friends, NEVER give up. you CAN do it. Just never loose hope.

Musical Jeanne

Jeanne A wonderful flute music echoed through the forest. The nature seemed to be dancing in rhythm to the heavenly blissful sound. Jeanne was sitting under a white willow tree leaning against it’s large trunk which was right next to a beautiful lake. She was playing the flute which her mother and Aunt made with her Grandfather’s help when they were young according to her aunt. It was she who gave it to Jeanne before leaving her in a bus stop. She played it for the first time only five days ago but she turned out to be a natural at it. It was about a week ago that her whole life was turned inside out. She was living in a camp she set up herself alone, with no one but animals around. Living like this made her feel free, she liked it. It all started with her Aunt Lucy taking her shopping to buy everything. At first she thought they were shopping for her cousin Nancy or someone else. But then her Aunt asked her to try on a few casual outfits and shoes. They didn’t stop there either. Aunt ...
