Into my life, he crept. No questions or doubts were considered. His tales of loves' misfortunes fell upon my ear; words of wisdom and encouragement I did utter. My heart he did make stutter, for within its cavity he did seep. Questions I now long to ask begin to form on my lips. Soon my fears gain control; those questions dissipate. This tale of love - my great misfortune - shall never fall upon his ear.

Driving along the desolate highway -
Looking out a window,
Gazing upon multifarious faces.
Their vacant eyes beseeching the heavens.
Jagged noses marring their guise -
Twisted mouths suggesting an everlasting wail.
Driving along the desolate highway -
Looking out a window;
I realize the abundant faces are not!
Not faces at all, rather the cliffs.
Distressing images infringe upon me.
Ghostly reflections of the dejected and starveling -
Haunting pictures of the neglected and rapidly dying.
Driving along the desolate highway -
Looking out a window;
Glimpsing forever lost spirits
Encased in the cliffs along the forlorn highway,
Being touched by the faces, forever saddened
By my troublesome thoughts.
*I wrote that one while traveling down Oregon. I'd fallen asleep right before we'd left Washington, growing too hot in the car I started to wake and the first thing I noticed were the cliffs. In my sleepy state I thought the cliffs were faces of some kind. As I gradually woke up the above thoughts drifted through my mind so I captured them in my journal. Yet another reason I travel with a journal at hand lol.

Take my hand in your hand.
United we shall stand.
We will face all
our earthly fears together.
With a love as strong as ours; we shall
Remain Forever.

Protective forces shimmering

Forever More
Tonight you shall vanish
from my reach.
But can you distinguish
the things I long to teach
before you slip away once more?
Today my heart breaks,
and you can't hear my cry.
Why do I allow the stakes
to get so high with the escape of my empty sigh?
Soon the pain will come once more!
In the morn you shall be gone
from my side.
I can only ask, how long?
Am I asking too much; to let my heart be the place you reside?
Or is it my destiny that you should leave once more?
Dusk is approaching all too soon.
My stomach is slowly beginning to churn.
After you're gone, my gaze will find the moon
and my tears will begin to burn.
I cannot allow you to see my pain once more.
For now I will rest
In the comfort
of your warm caress,
and I will try to fight off the hurt;
for this moment I must cherish Forever More.
Hidden among the rubbish.
Before There Was You
A church with no voices raised,
singing loud in heavenly praise,
is just four walls 'round a silent room.
That was me before there was you.
A ship with no guiding star
aimlessly drifting near and far,
with no harbor to sail into.
That was me before there was you.
A world where darkness fell
like a coin down an empty well
where no wish had been whispered.
That was me before there was you.
That was me before there was you,
the last dark cloud in a sky of blue
On a lonesome wind just passing through.

So accurate it's scarey
Your result for The Color Code Test...
Color Code: BLUE: The Social Butterfly
26% Red, 31% Blue, 31% White and 11% Yellow!
Here is the basics: For a more in depth analysis, I suggest you look up the Color Code, and take a more intensive test.
BLUE MOTIVE: Intimacy
BLUE NEEDS: To be good (morally), To be understood, To be appreciated, Acceptance.
BLUE WANTS: To reveal insecurities, Quality, Autonomy, Secuirity.
SUMMARY: Blues are motivated by altruism. They love to do nice things for others. they look for opportunites to give up something in order to bring another person happiness. selflessness rather than selfishness is their guiding philosophy. Blues seek intimacy. They want to be loved and to love. A true blue will sacrifice a successful career to improve an important relationship. Blues crave being understood. They are gratified when they are listened to, when they feel understood and appreciated. Blues may have thier hearts broken more than most people, but they also spend much more time in love. Blues are directed by a strong moral conscience. They have a moral code that guides them in their decision making, their value judgements, and their leisure time. A blue would rather lose than cheat. Ethically, blues are people who should be in positions of power, but seldom are.
I found this interesting
Your result for The Where Should YOU Travel Test...
Thai Resort
You scored 65% culture, 42% social, 45% activity, and 61% adventure!
Thailand...an exciting, culturally rich destination that offers you all the relaxation you can handle. This is a more satisfying place to visit than the usual hot 'n sunny places because you are experiencing a very unique place. The beaches are gorgeous and you can chill out in a hammock and be left alone. But you can also venture out into the floating markets, restaurants and even ride an elephant. The resorts are an oasis of tranquility surrounded by a world of adventures. It really is the best of both worlds. You can stay in a typical resort, of for more privacy, you can stay in a beach house all to yourself. Thai food is one of the most popular cuisines in the world, but they also make all types of dishes to suit all tastes. You will come back feeling like you've been enriched and energized. If you had fun dreaming about where you might go, don't forget to rate my test. Thanks!
Not much goin on
I haven't been working out as much on the Wii Fit lately. Instead I have been taking a 5 mile walk every night. I plan on getting back on the Wii Fit next Monday though. And I am hoping to start riding my bike more. Hahaha I dread riding it though because my town is all hills. I am not that into self torture. :)
That is it for tonight. I am going to turn The Other Boleyn - I think that's the name. We rented it a few night's ago and I still have not watched it. So I will watch it tonight, if I can't sleep when it is over I will get back on here.
I started writing more on that first story but I am not finished with it yet so it isn't posted. As soon as I finish it I will post it.
Sweet dreams to all you that actually sleep. For the rest of you - happy reading and may you find something to occupy all the lonely hours in which normal people are sleeping.

Her first time
Sara asked her mom if they could go down to watch a movie and there was no mention of bringing Jimmy. If Mom gets mad I'll just tell her she never said I had to bring him, and I did ask if Alex and I could watch the movie not Jimmy, Alex and I. Sara pushed thoughts of impending punishment out of her mind. She had been waiting for such a moment for what seemed like an eternity. Alex had asked Sara out a few months ago and Deb had warned her what Alex wanted, told her that if she didn't seal the deal that he would dump her as quickly as he had dumped Deb.
Sarah was not sure what Alex was going to say, she just knew it was now or never. Leaning against him she wrapped one arm around his shoulder put her other hand on his chest and she kissed him. She was so nervous that the kiss was a bit harder then she had intended. Their teeth smashed together and she thought she could taste blood in her mouth. Oh great he is really going to think I am an idiot now she thought.
