Awaiting Love (Poem by Gabby)

Am I the only one who falls asleep lonely? With only a chipped heart beating too slowly. Am I supposed to grow older in solitude- Or do I have a chance to find a love so true? I feel like my hands will always be empty, And I wonder if anyone will ever hold me. If this freckle-painted skin will ever be touched. As insecurities flood in; Will I ever be enough? Will anyone ever smile at me in that way? Or tell me that they love me every single day? I canā€™t be the only one who wants things like these, But oftentimes, I feel like it really is only me. Is loneliness a permanent inscription in my book? Will I ever gain a manā€™s second look? Oh, how I wonder if itā€™s already set in stone, That Iā€™ll spend my time entirely alone. But I have hope that Iā€™ll find a true love; Somebody I can open up to and fully trust. Maybe heā€™s been praying for a girl just like me- Awaiting a love heā€™s yet to meet.

My Talent (Poem by Mark Borne)

Many places, I've come to know, People of different cultures, too; They all have their thing, Something that they can do, But not me, not yet, My talent has yet to show up. I write and write, plots And twists and poems and Even the rare favorite of The readers I've lured And ensnared in my blog. Yet deep inside, I force myself To write the words that meet The lines of text and thoughts. Then I turn to run, and Find the wind upon my face As I escape my life, But it always catches up, And the worries I face Distract me, making the Outside world obsolete. Even in reading, I find Myself buried in stories That show misfortune in the Lives of fictional characters, Directly only to do as they Were told by the writer. And yet, in stories there is a Beauty unmatched by reality, A world that eventually Results in kindness and Peace and excitement. And being in those worlds, If only for a mere moment, Is my hobby. If only I could Be the character in the ...

Nexus Mad Libs

I assume most of you are familiar with what Mad Libs are. Basically, you're given a bunch of blanks to fill in, and you do so without knowing what the story is. Each blank has a part of speech labeling it, and that blank needs something that fits the part of speech. For example: Adjective: ________ --> Adjective: Explosive In the end, we usually have a hilarious end result that makes no sense whatsoever. One example is this (which is a real result I got once with my siblings): "Another way to help you fall asleep faster is drinking a nuclear glass of warm vinegar ." First, let's go over some rules. Obviously, keep it family friendly. This still goes for all blog content. Do not submit two words in a row. Submit one, and when someone else does one, you may do another. Submit through comments. That'll make it easier for me to assemble the final result. The category is Medieval Heroes . Here are the blanks: Adjective: Constipated (Kyra) Per...
