Adventure
-------------
A passion for mystery
Ferret hidden wonders
What is beyond those puffy white haze
Flew beyond it, faced no halt
A majestic black, solemn and forlorn
Boundless nightmare should I travel forth
...Mysteries...Hidden Wonders...
Adventurous spirit, no rebuff
"To the edge, here i come"
Dodged rolling stones
Soared through this vast darkness
A sign of life!
Shining spirit glowing merciful light,
A benign presence
'Twas unable to speak
Stayed by herside, kept me warm
After a campanionless travel
Rejoice for a spirit lives out here
...Boom... She imploded
Dispersed, leaving no trace.
She must've hated me.
Must end this adventure with haste
Crave to return where love is
"To the edge, here i come"
Whilst going forth, chance upon
a garden of shining spirits
Afraid of rejection, i evade
Gliding right, to my suprise
Distant glimmering lights, countless spirits
Maneuver a clumsy somersault, tried to escape
As though a giant halo
They've encircled me with no spitefulness
I fly forth,
as if destroying their balance, they scattered
but swiftly encircling me, once again
Vaguely, leading me
Uniformly, holding up this halo stance
Mysteries and Wonders awaits me
I shadow their movement
Whilst holding a distance,
Make certain that I'm inmost
A mysterious wind swept by
My amarantine seeping away
Merciless needles prickling
Cold.. A virgin to cold
freshly felt
Abruptly, spirits repositioned behind me
As though ready for battle
Me for a leader
Solemn atmosphere, defeaning silence
A monstrous pallid blue sphere, visible
Aura emitting evil
Nothing could live near
My natural weakness
Army of light, stormed the front
Spirt's only offense, a self destructing foray
Evil retaliates with solid ice spears
Waves of collision on the evil sphere
The beginning of a war, we fought forever
Prolonged battle, chilling aura
Stole my immortality
For I've never known death
Ought to triumph over Evil
Muster up my remaining strength
Released the sacred force within me
My ultimate attack
Vibrant red across the sphere surface
Flame that shan't extinguish
I left...
though my "Wonder" immortal

ANA
She was beautiful, but so idiotic
Having such beauty gave her privilege in school
The teachers always gave her outstanding references
and more than 3x she was class president
Junior and Senior prom, both years she was Queen
But she was horribly mean
Boyfriends she went through like air
Walking away with style and flair
Still she was stupid
After dumping boyfriend 13
she was climbing into her shiny, red convertible
When Alas! A demon came and snatched her away
she was tossed into the most hideous bodyand sent to live on a sheep farm in the country
She begged and pleaded to be let go
it was of no use
she would suffer great abuse
one day while feeding the sheep
she heard a voice behind her
she turned around and saw the mostbeautiful boy she had ever seen
tall and handsome with wavy browm hair and pretty blue eyes
instantly she was horrified at her own hideous appearance
but he seemed not to notice
theytalked for hours
he lived in the town nearby and heard that there was a new mistress of this land
she told him she didnt plan on staying long
when he questioned why she would not answer
Day after day, they spent every minute together
she grew fond of this poor life, she was in love
I love you he told her
and for the first time ever she said those three words, to him
and as they sat there she transformed into the beautiful girl she was born as
