  Purple

  

  By Erinwolf1997, San Carlos, CA

  I awake, frozen but sweating beneath my chartreuse flannel sheets. My mind is racing, my heart beating faster than normal. Facing the wall, I try my best to recall what had terrified me in my sleep. Still paranoid of the room around me, I fail to remember anything meaningful. The only image I can r...

  Pink Pool

  

  By Erinwolf1997, San Carlos, CA

  You sit in your shallow, pink pool The water washes away your troubles Not like you have any The water reflects your Innocence and carelessness As you grow, the reflection changes And every day you change a bit as well Like how that pink pool faded And chipped away It was hurt by both the...

  The Hunt

  

  By Erinwolf1997, San Carlos, CA

  Heavy Breathing, with short breaths, eyes focused and fixed on one point, paws fly rhythmically over forest floor, nose smelling, tension building, slowly, as they approach. Legs springing, Jaws snapping, Life leaving, Ravenous feasting....

  The Controversy of Autism Speaks

  

  By Erinwolf1997, San Carlos, CA

  It’s expected that every charity does nothing but good for whatever cause they promote. However, some, even large and well-known ones, don’t do all they are expected to, and it will definitely be better to consider giving your money to a different one. Autism Speaks is the largest and the most w...

  fun. Concert

  

  By Erinwolf1997, San Carlos, CA

  Inside a dark room, people all around My heart beats fiercely, quickening my breath My body?s hit with a mountain of sound Adrenaline pulsing, ears in protest My hand reaches out, but they?re all too far To see my face amongst this sea of eyes The wave becomes numb, it?s dead like a scar Fi...

  The Sea

  

  By Erinwolf1997, San Carlos, CA

  Salty breezes day through night Ripples and waves cast dazzling light It washes through the sand beneath you A content, graying shade of blue Beached shells tell many tales Of crabs, seagulls, fish and whales Solitary stones, smooth and round Discarded jewels, all around Discover something n...

  By Erinwolf1997, San Carlos, CA

  Like the croon of a dove you tell me that it's alright inspire me to face my inner monsters and demons light up the once darkened room that is my mind Now it is something different and extraordinary where night meets day and the victims are butterflies where weakness is strength and the d...

  The Fae

  

  By Erinwolf1997, San Carlos, CA

  With their glittering wings of greens and golds, their giant onyx eyes They lurk in the forest, the respiring cold and weave their patchwork lies Their hair is grass, their skin is bark their tears flow like the sea They glow like moons when it is dark they haunt the hollow tree Thro...

  Ceaseless Grace

  

  By Erinwolf1997, San Carlos, CA

  The air hot and humid Clouds looming Anything remotely human Disappearing Air still with a storm Of tropical sorts Rain begins to fall And more and more Of me wishes to fall Cascade through the air An eminent ball Where nobody cares Just the endless sea And the scent of a bloom T...

  Some Nights by fun.

  

  By Erinwolf1997, San Carlos, CA

  Fun has been in the spotlight since their single “We Are Young” was covered by the cast of “Glee” and climbed to number one in the Billboard Hot 100. It's surprising that an indie band made it to the top of the charts, surpassing mainstream artists like Adele, One Direction, and Katy Perry. ...

  The Parakeet and the Crow

  

  By Erinwolf1997, San Carlos, CA

  Her eyes didn't use to notice what I was becoming. She never noticed the way I would preen her feather ruff with my fingers, as if everyone could see them, Or the way that I would talk to her birds, not in words, but with melodies she had taught them to sing. Maybe she started to see when ...

  Brand New Eyes by Paramore

  

  By Erinwolf1997, San Carlos, CA

  Very few music artists are skilled enough to put out an album that has equally impressive melodies, lyrics, and lead vocals. In 2009, Paramore released their third studio album, which is their most popular and critically acclaimed album to date. Since its release, it has been certified gold in the ...

  Absence of Something

  

  By Erinwolf1997, San Carlos, CA

  Eerie pale light lit up the forest floor. The night lived quietly, like a sleeping animal. Aria didn't hear the noises she usually heard. She was never terrified of the forest, not until now. She felt a strange presence in the atmosphere, equally mysterious and terrifying. Her eyes, now adjuste...

  Butterfly

  

  By Erinwolf1997, San Carlos, CA

  Wings shimmer and flap Radiant sunlight It crawls noiselessly among the flowers A gossamer dew drop falls and twirls Catching the early dawn And lands on its fragile wings Magnifies and clarifies its Miniscule golden scales And runs off, a drop of pure light...

  Werewolves

  

  By Erinwolf1997, San Carlos, CA

  When the howls of the werewolves are the things that we all hear, Most will get their weapons out and gather up in fear. But we mustn't be afraid of them and their obscure, dark past, For we're the ones who treat them like they're monsters and outcasts. When somebody went mis...
