Iforgot to mention that the dead line is on the 10th of august lol.

I used to wonder what it was
an intense desire to let somebody live
the way my mother and father prayed
to the good Lord, oh they prayed for him to give
a second chance to me, an unborn baby.

So here I was, a child of intense jealousy
as my mother suckled me and my brother
tore through and created a feeling of intensely
strong hatred I couldn't quench.
He had taken the attention away from me.

I was just a child, and inch by inch
I grew in school and was by far intelligent
Played on the jungle gym and watched on a bench
As my best friend cried and I was laughing
Too insensitive to understand the cinch

Became a teenager, my wrists were itching
Wondering how long until I could relax and die
I had the intense desire for dying
The black and red poster board way.
I woke up and fell asleep every night, crying.

One day, one day... I heard someone say
I was too pale, and I turned to look and behold
The voice did not go away.
There was somebody who had noticed me
And I grew attached to this day.

I eventually came to see
I would cry and wonder why I never
Said a word, and just even maybe
Because we were only kids I let
The voice say goodbye, and it left me.

That voice I will never forget.
I held a child in my arms,
Who came and looked at me, and let
Her smile as I wished her a long life
And discovered in that single moment

Love.

I'm not entirely sure if I've done this correctly, but I tried my best. I put the item I'm talking about backwards at the end of my poem.

Baby Teeth and First Young Loves
by dollwithafrown

The air was a slight mixture of
laughter and suspense,
when a smile can make a heart melt;
a picture of fragile innocence.

And upon the sun rising ,
flying light upon this day;
a group of souls together,
making memories built to stay.

Scraped knees and broken fingernails,
a few tears shed down soft cheeks;
though all it takes is a hug and a kiss
and the voice when a child speaks.

Bright colours paint a masterpiece;
melodies created through sound
of children dancing lightly
on the solid summer ground.

A sweet fragrance that speaks of love
With the softest petals so intricate
The colors are delicate but vibrant
And the over all effect so magnificent

Small leaves are scattered on the stem
With thorns so sharp, begging for blood,
The feelings this beauty of nature brings
So incredible for what started as a bud

And like every other thing so beautiful
After a while it must always wither away
But even in it's quiet, dark, somber death
We use it as the words for what we can't say

ESOR- I chose this because I've gotten a lot of these in my few years. I got red ones when my boyfriend told me he loved me, yellow ones when I was in the hospital, pink ones when my grandfather passed away, white ones when my brother came home from the army and a single dead one from a close friend of mine when I found out my brother had overdosed. I've always been fascinated at how us humans seem to communicate with this flowers. Hope it's good... :P

These are great so far and everyone is doing a great job =).
so far i am loving what I've read and each one has created the image of what they are writing about before I've read the subject at the end, so so far so good.

keep em coming!
