Tiny black bodies dotted the grass, like ebony candies scattered on the sidewalk. They looked like beads, shining in the stormy gray sunlight. They traveled with determination, blatently ignoring obstacles and marching right through them. The ants left and came back, left and came back. When they'd return, they'd be carrying something to eat on their backs or inside their crab's-claw mouths. They went straight to their anthill, without pausing except to avoid collision with other ants. If all the food had been cleared out from one area, they would travel farther even if there was danger there. The ones that did not come back were not r

How to Save a Life

Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend somewhere alone in the bitterness... The guitarist was singing that song, as far as I remember. I wish I could recall the other ones, but you know how you just get wrapped in some moments and can't really remember the specifics, but know exactly how you felt? This was like that. The guitarist was the exact image of a cliche romance novel; he was beautiful and talented, but what stood out the most was how much he loved the music. As a musician myself, he inspires me every time I play. I remember walking into the cruise ship bar, snatching for myself some time alone. I was drawn to the prospect of a

Smile Like a Mask

She wears those scars on her wrist Just like memories -- She thinks I won't find out, Says there's nothing to tell. And I can't believe That -- After all that we've been through You went and did them too. Well tell me again that you're fine Wear a smile on your face Look me in the eye and tell me, "Just another good day -- I'm fine, I'm okay." But you go home and you sit down Lay your things on the bed Tried not to look as you bled All you could do to keep your head. You tell everyone you're fine When they ask you -- Because they start to notice, too That you're not being you A little hobby went all black A lot faster t

Literature

Birthday Presents

Elaina stepped timidly into the bakery, her shining white shoes smudged a bit from the rain. The black buckles on them were stained with dirt, but they looked just as fancy to her as they always had. Maybe even better. Her yellow ankle socks were perhaps a tad bright for a day like today, but it was her birthday and she was allowed to pick out her own outfit. She'd chosen her dad's leather jacket, her mother's white blouse with flowers along the collar, her aunt's wedding ring and her grandfather's favorite blue belt looped through her jean shorts. Her mom had looked... well, she would have looked

Happy Spring!

So hello my lovelies! I understand that I really have no new uploads whatsoever but I'm pretty much done with this site and I have been for awhile.  I just come on here to message sometimes.  (:  I do think, however, that ya'll should follow my Tumblr account: http://ticketstothehighway.tumblr.com/ http://ticketstothehighway.tumblr.com/ http://ticketstothehighway.tumblr.com/ And yes, those are all the same account, I just felt like linking you guys three times.  Anyway, for spring break we went on this really cool trip (I didn't think it would be this good, actually...) to Ohio... haha yeah, I know, it doesn't sound very fun.  But it actu
