Ten Apples Up On Top please (:

Ok, I'm not that sure if I will have time to do this but i'm going to start by reserving one title. "Butterfly heaven" please =]

Ten Apples Up on Top

Those precious items you hold
so close to you, you'd never let go.
To lose them would simply be unbearable.

Bright and shiny red apples
shimmering in tree tops
Catching the sun just right, delicious

No one knows the fullest extent,
to which you love them.
Yet you'd do anything to keep them safe.

Perfectly crisp.
Cream of the crop.
Sittin' right at the top.

I'm also going to try...

Within My Silken Treasures

I just broke my writers block =]

Butterfly Heaven

Through the sweet eyes of shattered mental illness,
Lays a mind taken away from the blackened stillness,
Although named insane but brought on from depression,
Is the beauty of the mind which once was utterly strong,
Listening to the peaceful tunes of such an entrancing song,
As the pictures of insanity replay through focused thoughts.

Alone in a world brought to mind by ones own delusions,
Lost in-between thoughts of these harmonious illusions,
Toxic butterfly's glisten from the colors of sparkling gold,
As they fly gently throughout a pink sky towards the stars,
Leaving a trail of blue upon the brains already marked scars,
While tired eyes hallucinate the colors of a pastel rainbow.

A heaven so beautiful, painted upon the mist of butterfly's,
Escaping painful reality from the truth of misfortunate lies,
A land of fairytales so admired deep within ones heart,
Although ill to the core, affection is still what they seek,
As a child with schizophrenia lays their head to sleep,
For another day goes by, colored within depths mind.

Within Her Silken Treasures

Silky smooth to the common onlookers.
Elegance in a curvaceous figure,
yet mysteriously inviting.

Folds upon folds of unknown details,
keeping her true treasure buried,
for the right one to come along .

Waiting for the man.
The man with the key.
The key to her treasure chest.

A glowing flame of desire and love,
silently growing to a deadly passion.
Hoping for that man with the key.

A sultry girl at heart.
Romance at every turn.
All apart of her silken treasures.

No one can see the Real her,
she's hidden in her silky layers.
Patiently waiting for someone to find her.

Changing up the rules a bit. once you have completed your three you can do as many as you want..

(this means you are legible alot more then one set of prize comments. haha

Brilliant :) lol. i have it all marked down

Thanx deary. :) hope more enter!!

3) Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are?

plz! but I can't promise anything =P

Chow baby!

Ha, I actually wrote it and I like it. Bah, go figure...
````````````````````````````
Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are?

Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are?
You can swim in the air and bathe with the stars.
You can breathe underwater and talk to the fishes -
You met a genie who didn't limit your wishes.

Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are?
You could get a cut and never, ever scar.
You can run on the clouds and talk to the flowers.
I could sit there and just watch you for for hours.

Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are?
You can fly so you have no use for a car.
You could pick me up with just one finger.
Around me, your aroura just seems to linger.

Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are?
If you're hungry, wish yourself up a candy bar.
I wish I could have everything that you do.
But then again, is any of this really true?

When will this be over?

I will be closing it when i get back from the long weekend. so.. august 6th at midnight!

I was gunna jedge it today, but some things have come up guys. i'm sorry i won't be able to judge it for a few more days. i will keep it open until i do judge it though.

I Can Draw Myself

I can name-drop all night long, but you know I

Can`t find the one to fit well enough with your
Attitude, and maybe it`s my fault that I
Never took the time to get to know you, but

Darling, pinning this on me won`t go over
Real well in the end. Your absence is
Already doing the number on me - you
Wore the perfect attire for the part you played on

Me: a black suit for the funeral of hearts; and
You always said that my
Selfish ways would catch up to me in the
End, and this picture I painted in my head of the
Love we once had is dead. But Baby; I can
Forget about you and draw myself: happy.
