Hey, look at that. How do I know you made it to another Monday? Well because you’re reading this of course and I’m watching you right now on Google Analytics.
 I love that site, I can even watch visitors in real time.(This is me dancing like a retard) “Woot Woot!”
Lmao, please slap me if you ever see me do that IRL. I will be forever grateful. Soooo – Sadly Runes of Magic, which by the way, took FOREVER to download, was a total bust. I played it a total of maybe two nights in a row total before saying “This totally SUCKS!” and uninstalling it, therefore continuing my quest for a good game to play. Like I said before, AMAZING graphics, buuuut the quests are really easy and monotone and they either take forever and aren’t interesting, or it’s something stupid like going to talk to the guy in the next building over. I really hate busy work. It sucks even more because I went and got all my friends to play it too. I’m really thinking of just getting one of those popular games, I think I said that last time. I’ve got a friend trying to get me to play WOW now too, sending me all these links etc.There’s just the small problem of that little $15.00 a month fee as well as having to get the expansions, and my not having a steady source of income. .. .YET. (Insert Extremely determined face here) Then I’ve got my brother trying to get me to check out MythRuna, which looks like a rip off of MineCraft so far but for free and not yet completed programming wise. I think it’s pretty obvious that I’m most likely Not going to check out said game. Too bad I haven’t figured out how to record myself playing games yet or I’d do a video review for you guys to have a little more solid evidence with which to base your opinion off of. On that note, I’ve made a Note To Myself (NTS) Quick! Somebody slap me before I make that noise again! Lol. To my attention, has come the fact that there is a virus going around again, mostly because I, who rarely gets sick, also has contracted said fever including virus. @_@ I really hope that you all survive that too, I’m sure you will anyway it’s just a little cold type thing, but – uh – watch out for that it’s not fun. If any of you know of a game I might like, or a game you’d like me to review, go ahead and let me know in the comments, not only would I appreciate it but I’m sure it’d be fun and I don’t get nearly enough comments. Also, if you scroll up and click on the white figure with the words “I pledge to read the printed word” over the top, you can get the same badge or a variation for your own site. I don’t know about the rest of you, but I much prefer physical books with their new book smell, and these E Books are causing a lot of authors as a whole to lose a lot of money when it’s already hard to be an author. So pledge to read the written word and don’t let the art fade! I pledge to read the printed word! That’s all I’ve got for this Monday. I hope you enjoyed and that you’ll come back again soon. Don’t forget to suggest a game and get the badge, I hope all of you have a great night and manage to avoid the plague. TTYL! |
You Survived!

So pledge to read the written word and don’t let the art fade! I pledge to read the printed word! TTYL! CALM DOWN! There’s no reason to be so excited! Unless, of course, it’s because you’re on my website, I mean, who isn’t excited to be on my website?
BREAKING NEWS! I was SOOO excited to see that on March 29th I had 165 Visitors and181 pageviews! Amazing! Absolutely FANTASTIC! Other than that, unfortunately, I don’t really have any news. However, I can offer this. For those of you who like MMORPG‘s, I’m one of those people who are always lookin’ for a new game to play. Yes, Ethereal Melody is a gamer, and a good gamer too. I recently found this game called “Runes of Magic” and so far it’s pretty awesome. It has amazing graphics, and so far the missions are pretty cool. If you want to hit me up there, I’d love to game with my readers sometime, my username is. *coughcough* SURPRISE ~ ETHEREALMELODY but only the E and M are capitalized. I usually favor the Mage character but this time I went with the Rogue. I’ve never played WOW, but I’ve heard things about it and seen pictures etc, apparently ROM is a lot like it, but the reviews I read said that it’s still awesome (the reviewer had played WOW). I’ve also noticed similarities to Shaiya control wise, for those of you who have played that. ( I got bored of that game around lvl 17 or so). That’s all I have for today. Hope you all enjoyed my fun use of colors to keep your attention and everything, and if you have any questions or comments, Well A) There’s a comment form down below, and B) if you want to simply give feedback or leave a private message you can do that by hovering the mouse over the “Welcome” up top and by clicking on the “Contact Us” page. 
Are you Excited? Pfft, of course you aren’t. I’m probably one of few who actually enjoy Mondays. What do I know though, there may be hundreds of other perfectionists all riled up and eager to get back to work. Then again, I work everyday. Except Sunday that is.
If you’ve been paying attention I’ve begun posting more poetry. In fact, I posted three poems last time, and I was very pleased to have gotten a few comments. Brightened my day to know someone actually read them and cared enough to let me know. I still haven’t posted “Over the Wall”, but you’ll be pleased to know that I now have the basic idea of how to go about that and will be working to get that page posted on ASAP. Another highlight, for me anyway. On the 26th I received sixty visitors. The first two days I joined I got up to a hundred and thirty, so I’m trying to get back up there. I was thrilled. I’ve only just started, so I’m not too discouraged, but I could use a little help, meaning ah, well visitors. I could use some visitors, so don’t be shy to click the little button up there that allows you to share this post with facebook, twitter, myspace, instagram, etc. You won’t regret it. That I can promise. Anywho, I hope you’ve all survived to see another dreaded Monday and that you’ve escaped relatively unscathed. I will see you all later, So as everyone does, I’m sure, I’ve been thinking about a few changes to not the site, but the posting schedule. I’m thinking that I should definitely add more than just one poem a week. It’s not a big deal, after all on the schedule I’m on now I’ve enough poetry to post for two years even without writing anymore. I want to post more though, the only question is, which day shall receive the honor? Perhaps Tuesday should be the day TWO poems are posted?
If you’ve paid attention to the whole site, you’ll have noticed that I (shamefully) have not posted “Over the Wall” yet. At all. So here’s my excuse. I honestly am not yet sure from which approach to take it. I could post my ideas for stories, but then I’d be paranoid about plagiarists, I could write as if from the inside of my imagination, but is it just me or does that seem a bit limited? I could also post my thoughts, kind of like a diary, but I get the feeling that no-one wants to hear that. A good friend of mine has also suggested that I drag you all into “My World” the world I’ve created for one, or all of my books, which sounds great, but how exactly?
What do you all want to read? is there anything else you would like to see on this site that I’m missing? Please post your suggestions in the comments below. Lovingly ~ Ethereal Melody Hello Everyone, EM here.
If you’re here from WordPress, Awesome, I’m so glad to see you here! If you’re new, Welcome! This is the “News and Updates” Portion of the website where I’ll be posting, well, News and updates. (What else. .. .?) You may have noticed that I’m a lot more “Cheery” than I usually am, but haven’t I the right? It’s not everyday you publish a website. Anywho, this is where I’ll be posting updates concerning everything I write and post and do on this website, and possibly the WordPress. If you haven’t seen The Posting Schedule you should probably look at that. You can find it by hovering the mouse over the word “Welcome” up above the picture at the top of the page. Or by clicking that link. At the top of the page, above the picture that is, you can also find links to the poetry I’ll be posting, the “About the Author” and “Contact EM” page, however, the only way you can get “Over the Wall” is by clicking the button next to the giant picture of my face on the “Welcome” page. Remember, I will not post Sunday’s because that is the day I set aside for writing books, editing poetry, editing pictures if need be, and other creative activities. If you come from The WordPress you already know that. (Kudos to you. .. .No need to rub it in though, come now Now for the conclusion! Thank-you all again for coming to my website and reading, and for commenting if you decided to do that. (I love getting comments.) I will be posting poetry today, because it’s Tuesday, so be sure to check that out. (And now I have eight hours and twenty minutes to figure out which poem I want to post as a first.Lovely.) Everyone have a good day, don’t do anything I wouldn’t do (that’s not much of a boundary) and tell your friends about Ethereal Melody, and come back tomorrow for whatever it is I’m posting then. *checks the schedule* Oh! Tomorrow I blog! See ya. </3 :D |
The Mind of the Author
You open your eyes to find yourself in – a kind of space like no other. The sky and the surrounding – space – change by the second, as if to the whims of a very impulsive, or perhaps random, mind.
A few speeding clouds disappear from view as the sky fades from sunrise into late evening, and out of the corner of your eye, fantastic creatures appear and prance about.
Then suddenly, everything goes blank, as if a complete reset was induced, to make room for an image that fills the sky, of yet another fantastic creature.
Finally, your eye is drawn to the center of this space, the spot just a few yards in front of you. Here sits a large flat rock, and atop it; is what soon appears to clearly be – a woman. The way she looks also changes from time to time, but more slowly as if after careful thought. However, one thing always stays the same; The beautiful silky brown hair that hangs to her waist.
As you watch, her clothing fades from what seems to be cargo pants and a T-Shirt, in just mere seconds.
The image also fades, blown away by whatever unnatural wind was called, and as the woman stands, everything, for the first time, is still.
She stands gracefully to turn to greet you, and it becomes apparent that she is very young, somewhere around sixteen to twenty years of age. Her now flaming red corset petal dress makes her skin seem all the more pale, and though her bare feet seem so innocent, there is something darker to this woman’s being, sadder, wiser.
She walks to you silently, and holds out a hand, palm up. “Welcome” comes her low but clear, echoing voice “Tothe Mind of the Author”.
Envy I Want to Be Better
What are you Envious of? Have you ever heard or seen someone do something much better than you can, and then tried to do the same or better for the next week?
I’ve done it several times. I had five years of choir, and I can sing pretty well, but not that well. Not that kind of music. Though I can sing a wide range of notes, project my voice and all, singing does not benefit my goals in life at all. Yet every time I hear someone sing something I like, or the way I like, I’ll sing until I finally accept that I just can’t do it, or until I get it perfect. ( < —– perfectionist )
For example, the version of the song Hallelujah by the four Norwegian guys. I sang that for the next week until I sang it the best I could. (I mostly sing soprano, high soprano) I’ll do the same thing with art, cooking, writing. Or if I see someone do something I think I can do better, I will. It’s not that I want to one up everyone, or anything like that, in fact, I really don’t know why I do it at all. Maybe it’s that I’m ambItious, or that I just want to be good at everything I can be. I know it doesn’t particularly matter whether or not I can hit a perfect High C or hold a note for longer than eight counts. So why do I do it? Besides liking the sound of my own voice to the near point of narcissism.
What do you do, and why do YOU do it?
And Now for an Especially Morbid Poem by Ethereal Melody
Enjoy.
________________
FAREWELL
________________
An abyss beckons
from the organ of love
highlighting spots where your presence lingers
and pointing them out
with barely warm fingers
Where the mask once protected
a fragile light
when it broke it enveloped me
in eternal night
So tiny and vital
The mask held together
all the beautiful pieces
of a shattered soul
and made us believe
she was all the more whole
But the tear drops stood out
like a starless sky
To one who possessed a practiced eye
and I cherished their lullaby
as it ran through my head
like she cherished the bodies
that belonged to the dead
Oh the abyss is so welcoming
when you’ve been knocked about the head
for the trees seem so fruitless
without you here, My friend
But if you ever don the mask again
Leave the dark abyss behind
remember that regardless of time
The return of your presence will never be declined

Poetic Pleas of Passions Pride
I’ve noticed that a lot of people here on wordpress,com really like poetry. There are countless blogs just for poetry, and so in realization of that knowledge I have decided to post poetry more often.
And Now for another Morbid poem by Ethereal Melody.
If Only You Knew
If you knew you only had twenty years
so many days
yet so many moments too few
How would you pass the time away
waiting for time to end too soon?
Would you spend each moment in laughter
each day as if it were your very last?
or each second in haunting agony
recounting each moment you’ve regretted the past?
What would you tell your family
those who’ve been there through thick and thin
and what would you say when they asked you
How do you plan, to end?
With dignity or grace
With a bang or a blast
with a signature move that will help you live on
even after you’ve long last passed
What would you do,
To make sure they knew
who you were
before you grew
before you turned the leaf of luck
and saw the door around the bend
The tunnel signifying,
your long life’s end
What would you do, if only you knew?

A Website VS a WebBlog or Weebly VS WordPress
First off, you should know that “Webblog” is the proper term for what you are currently reading right now. So if you want to sound smart and avoid the slang for a few seconds, “Webblog” is the term you want.
A few weeks ago, I started looking for a new place to call my official web home. Not because I don’t like WordPress but because I just wasn’t satisfied. There are just too many limitations. Call me greedy if you will, but I wanted more.
To me, http://www.Wordpress.com is a bit difficult to use. My readers tell me that my blog is hard to navigate and that it takes ages for them to find the thing they are actually looking for. It’s hard to figure out how to make the words different colors, and change the fonts, and when you do find out it takes too much effort, in fact much more than it should. Sure it’s one of the most popular sites for this sort of thing on the web, but I wouldn’t recommend it unless you’re just looking for a very simple, singular blog. Don’t get me wrong, some people have some amazing blogs here, very impressive, and get some real work done. It’s just not for me, and weebly is really user friendly.
I much prefer http://www.weebly.com. It takes a little more effort, but with just a few hours of work if you’re willing to put it in, you can have a great site. Multiple blogs, Easy to edit, modify to exactly what you want, the upgraded plans are very cheap, it can be classy or fun, whatever you want. I have not had a single complaint about navigation abilities, and I go find people to take a look at my site and critique it, give me ideas.
For the Stats junkies, per-fect! I’m a stats junkie too, I sit here and watch the stats graph for about five minutes at a time hoping it will go up. I study that thing, check it probably three to four times a day. Perfect. With Weebly you can check how many views, how many unique visitors, how they got to your site, the most useful keywords, which page and which time. Literally stalk your visitors every movement, and for us that’s a good thing, pretty much REQUIRED if you’re serious about getting the maximum amount of visitors and your name out, etc.
In general, blog VS site and vice versa. They both get information out, but, a website can get multiple genres of info out simultaneously if need be whereas a blog can only do one at a time. So, One topic, VS I want to talk about multiple topics. Both have a really large, and great variety of backgrounds By the way, for those of you who are really concerned about the look of your page / site.
Websites seem more professional and less like a hobby. You can do the same thing you do on wordpress website style and blog, but still call it a website. Odds are an employer would be more impressed with “Hosted / Managed a Website” than “Ran a Blog” or however you put it, and it seems more independent and less like you need a helping hand.
A con of a website though is that it’s harder to find and follow. On WordPress you can follow people and subscribe to their posts, I have not yet found a way to do that on Weebly so as far as I know, with websites you have to go back periodically and check, which isn’t too much of a hassle but it’s not as convenient.
Some websites and or blogs have programs that will proof read and edit your work if you need that which isn’t really a big deal, If I need that I can just open Microsoft or Jarte and use the spell check there. Something that is Super awesome though, is the draft feature on Weebly that saves drafts of your work whenever you make a change. Absolutely love it.
Overall, it really depends on how you want to come across, and the different features. Usually, the one Blog per blog VS multiple per website is kind of the norm and defining point, if that isn’t obvious. You’ll just have to shop around so to speak, look at different plans etc, and choose one for yourself. Like I said before, I personally much prefer Weebly and you can check out my own personal site at http://www.etherealmelody.weebly.com
Taking Over the World
Did I say that? No way did I just say “Taking Over the World”. Or maybe I did. People see and hear what they want to. Honest truth though, I cannot be the only person who fantasizes about taking over the world. Raise your hand! I see you sitting there in your chair, on your couch, eyes glued to the screen, and I know you’ve done the same thing. So maybe I’m a little ambitious, maybe I’m totally bluffing, maybe I’m just nuts, either way, I’m not the only one. Whenever you get with that one friend the topic is bound to come up, am I right?
“I get Japan.” “Hell Fuckin’ No you don’t – wait – only if I get china” ” Fine! But I get Russia.” “What? Fine you take all the cold places, but I get SA because I like fruit. Quit whining, you get Russia!” ”. .. .but I only like them for the funny hats. .. .and Japan makes robots. .. .”
Tell me this now, do you always dream about making a “Better Place?” Well your idea of a “Better place” Some people have horrible ideas of a “Better Place” and for some people, well it doesn’t take much for their Bad to get Better. Or! Or do you have that side of you, or maybe your always like this, do you just want to see the world burn? I have that side. Sometimes I’m like
” WELL – but I really just want to rip out a flame thrower and incinerate all those people I absolutely hate. Catch one on fire, let them run around, and it’s like a grass fire – WHAM the night is day.”
But wait for it! I would kill all but those that I think would make the world a “Better Place.”
That’s just that “Other Side” though. Kinda like Mogwai’s have that other side after their midnight snack. They just aren’t “Them” when they’re hungry.
The other side ( The boring side) that says “Wait! You can’t kill them they’re Innocent! They know not what they do!” Blah blah blah, all the humanitarian stuff where I force myself into even higher logic and do everything the right way (my way) and make everything more efficient and wipe out as much disease as possible. .. .though I’m not sure how to do that humanely yet. .. .etc, etc.
[But Mo-oM I don't wanna curb my temper and be nice to people!]
That one friend. I bet a lot of you are wondering which of us is the bad influence on who right now, and to be honest, I’m not sure either – but if I had to make a decision I would have to say that well, I’m probably the good influence believe it or not.
What’s your take on the matter? I know you’ve got ideas running through your head, your own ideas about taking over the world, or maybe regretfully ideas about referring me to your shrink, (–_–) please don’t - I want to hear them. Down below is a lovely little form just click in the box, give me your name of choice, click submit, and let me know your, or maybe you and your friend’s if your a duo / partnership, plan to conquer the world. Maybe if I like it I’ll even respond with some suggestions, or maybe a friend request on pyschos.net. (Not a real site.) If you’re lucky.
I’M WAITING!
~ EM
Death Unto Trolls ~ I Beg of Thee
Does this look like someone you know? Maybe not. However, it probably reminds you of someone. This person would be what this generation of teenagers and young adults calls a “Troll”. No, not literally a troll, silly. A “Troll” is “A person who submits deliberately inflammatory articles to an internet discussion.” (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/troll?s=t) Though the term can also be used to refer to someone who deliberately manipulates semantics and pretends to misinterpret ambiguous statements, both online and (IRL) in real life. Personally I like my definition better, but then again I’m biased.
I’ll admit that I’ve played the part of troll. How many people can there be that haven’t tried or at least wanted try it sometime? “If I say this will it piss them off?” I’m thinkin’ the number can’t be too high. Especially when people are bored, and are looking for reactions out of people. However, those same people, including myself, Ethereal Melody, also know that it isn’t always right to do this. Some could argue, that I, that no-one has the ability or the right to truly decide what is “Right”, “Proper”, “Correct”. “Ethical”. However, I could in turn argue that if not I, than who, has the right to decide what is right, to do for myself, and what gives them this?
I want to share with you my definition of a “Bad Person”. My definition of a bad person is “Someone who intentionally does things that causes pain and or suffering to other creatures, yet knows it is wrong.” I can’t explain to you the term “wrong” or why it’s wrong, but if you don’t already know it, do me a favor. Take your dictionary for elementary children and go back to school. Unless it’s self defense, Trolling is wrong. More than likely, you are being trolled however, because you Trolled first. If not, well we’ve all heard the phrase “Don’t stoop to their level.” If you haven’t, you just did. Congratulations, you’ve learned something today. The act of trolling has no beneficiary product, and all of you self proclaimed Hairy Footed “Trolls” are just wasting precious time and air that could be used with much less effort to do things that are so much more worthy. However, if you want to go hide under your sewage bathed bridge and ignore this because you’re angry and sad, go ahead, because if you aren’t willing to do anything to improve your lot in life you don’t deserve for anyone to try to help you.
My name is Ethereal Melody, and as an inhabitant of the planet Earth I call for my race to Grow Up so that some of us don’t have to be so ashamed of the label “Human.”
Peace Out.
A Choking Muse
This isn’t what I want to say
Not the words I’ve called
Not the feeling that I wanted to share
Not the poem at all
A poet who cannot find the words
to fill a soundless bay
might as well turn in their brain
And learn to live another way
When pen can’t scratch the paper
and nought can coax the ink
there’s not much you can really say
but
Try again another day

Hey World ~ Update
Hey Everyone, EM here again.
Did you miss me? Doesn’t matter anyway. I’ve found an answer to my website difficulties at http://www.weebly.com. I know this sounds like good-bye, but it isn’t! I swear. At the new site, which has eight pages, three are blogs, so I will be posting duplicates of some of the posts here as well. Why not? There’s no reason not to. I’ll still be working on this site to get it to perfection, but then I’ll pretty much leave it alone except for the scheduled blog posts, which will be. . . .*thinks* let’s just say Monday and Thursday for now.
http://etherealmelody.weebly.com/index.html
That there, that thing up there is the link to the new, much more awesome site that I’ve been working on. I haven’t posted anything yet, but I will, as you can see if you look at the posting schedule which you can find under the “Welcome” tab when you hover the mouse over it.
That’s all for now, so until next time. .. .Well, do something with your lives.
Love you all. ~ EM
The Creator “EM”
What? Oh- uh whoa! I’m sorry, I don’t mean to frighten you little one. YOU startled me! Nonono, don’t run! I won’t shout anymore. It’s okay. Come sit in my hand so I can see you better.
Ah, that’s better. Well look at you! Veeery interesting. Hm, well, don’t take this the wrong way now, but- ah, What are you? Hm? What’s that? Oh! You must be one of Zeus‘s creatures! A Human! You must be, let me see, well you don’t look like one of those tree people, uhm, the Moriko’s or one of those other strange little mishaps those buffoons created. How delightful. You know I don’t get many visitors up here, but hm, I could have stepped on you (and wouldn’t that have made a mess.)
Who am I? Well I’m Ethereal Melody, the creator of this world, yes your whole world. Yes the grass too, yes yes, and that as well! No stop asking such silly questions it irritates me! *sigh* Let me just set you down here for a second so that I don’t accidentally squish you.
(EM gently set’s you down on a Creator Sized work table. You can’t see much of anything besides the table, EM, and a few shelves because of your size.)
How could you have gotten in here? Well it doesn’t really matter now does it? You must be very curious. Say, how would you like to be my friend?
(EM laughs at your bewildered expression)
Yes, my friend! Do you really think that you could ever stop wondering if I just set you down and let you go about your mundane life? Of course not. You’re curious. All of Zeus’s little human creatures are.
(EM lowers her voice and takes a seat in what seems to you to be a gigantic chair. It’s at least the size of a house.)
Just imagine if more of you got up here.
I’d always be stepping on you when you got underfoot and then I’d have to bleach the floors of your blood and get a dog to eat the stinky flesh. (She wrinkles her nose in disgust) And more than likely I’d be flicking you all out of existence by the hour’s wane.
(EM clears her throat and looks back up at you.)
But-ah, I wouldn’t do that to you. I like you, mostly that there’s only one of you.
(she peers at you) It’s a pity you aren’t a bit bigger. Oh well. Come here again.
(She holds out her hand and waits patiently until you clamber onto it.)
This, is my workshop. (she turns slowly to let you get a good view)
Since I get lonely here, I’ve decided I’ll let you stay here and learn from me. (She seems very pleased with herself)
And maybe one day you’ll be somebody important. (She says this thoughtfully and then carefully kneels to set you on the ground.)
I’ll set something up so that you don’t have to be on the ground so much, we’ll call it the danger zone. I have some work to do now though, so why don’t you scamper off and satisfy some of that curiosity? And maybe when I find you again you’ll have thought of a name for me to call you.

An Idea of the Future ~ UPDATE
So my idea, is to have a page for blogging, another page for blogging poetry, and another page for blogging about Sundays. Or at least a way to keep them from being seen all at once and instead individually. I figured out the sticky posts, now to figure out the parent pages. Anything else I should figure out while I’m floundering around here in the lava? No? Liars.
I’ll keep ya updated, don’t miss me too much.
Major Changes Upcoming
Hello Everyone, EM here.
You may have noticed the lack of posts this week. Let me explain myself.
I am currently having slight technical difficulties with this site. I would like to be able to Blog to more than one page for starters, not different blogs, different pages of the same site. The only problem is that though I’m not sure of their purpose, I feel like perhaps the sticky and parent pages could help with this? Maybe you all could help me out, do you know of a way I could do this, or of a site I could do this on? It would be very helpful.
Anywho, that is why I haven’t been blogging, I’ve been plotting a major change! (I never plan, just plot 
)
Thank-you for your patience and understanding. ^_^
To This Day Project : Video By Shane Koyczan
A fellow poet asked me, all of us really, to watch this video. I did. I cried. I said,
“This is the most beautiful yet saddening thing I have ever heard. .. .and not just because I can relate.”
But I was wrong. Perhaps it was beautiful in it’s own way, tragic, in another. In reality, I think the most accurate thing to say is that it is very touching.
I recommend you watch it, and share it with everyone.
This is the new viral video.
Share it to Facebook, Twitter, instagram, Stumbleupon, Myspace, Flicker, I know you still have those. Share it with everyone because I know that ALL of you have been able to relate to this at least twice in your life. I know that none of you WANT anyone else to feel that sorrow, and I know this because I am one of you.
None of us enjoyed that feeling, so hare it with everyone you know, share it with your kid brother, your parents, that little kid that looks up to you because they wish they had an older sibling. Show it to the bullies,
And Repeat.
This Goes To Everyone
On my Home page I mention poetry. Some of you may have wondered where that is. I thought today that I’d give you the first glimpse of many. It’s certainly not my best, or even my worst, but every word comes straight from the soul. I hope you Enjoy.
Sorrow fills the innocent mind
and I just want to scream
The frustration builds
as the feelings swell
and I just feel so helpless, Hell!
I see the tears, I feel your fears,
Your anger, your sorrow
and the most prominent thought
in my empath mind is that
I’d like nothing more than to heal you
I want to reach through the screen
and hug you,
and take your sadness inside myself
because I’d rather feel all the fears you’ve known
because your smile is addicting-
I just can’t get enough
and I yearn for it, need it, want it.
Crave it.
I just want to hug you and make it better
Because even though it hurts me
and to me the pain is so real
I’d gladly feel that everyday if it
Would only help you heal
Because I genuinely care,
and I swear to you
no feeling has ever been more true
and if I could take everyone’s pain
Feel it everyday,
It would be entirely worthwhile
If only I could live long enough
to see all of you truly smile
