    556-753 wrote a new post, Big Bully 8 years, 11 months ago

    She is a big bully
    fighting this little girl
    she fights with weapons
    all the little girl has are books

    why fight the little girl
    have you forgotten
    you too were once bullied
    and then you rose to be […]

    556-753 wrote a new post, Creatures of the night 8 years, 11 months ago

    Night falls darkness surrounds me
    it sounds the siren for them
    the creatures of the night
    you cannot see them
    as they invade your mind
    making your fears come alive

    you cannot hide from your
    own mind
    so […]

    You used to hang onto every word I used to say;
    Now you hardly listen, girl tell me what’s changed;
    My smile used to turn you on, now you can’t stand the sight of my face;
    Something is wrong, things just ain […]

    556-753 wrote a new post, I was loved 8 years, 12 months ago

    I was loved before I was born
    before I felt the sun on my skin
    before I was seen with scorn
    before I came to know Him

    I was loved before I was born
    the moon was made for me
    and each sunset and dawn
    along […]

    I was pleased to hear your name
    I was amazed to see a face like you
    Your smile, time stop for that moment to wonder

    556-753 wrote a new post, Grey clouds 10 years, 2 months ago

    Grey clouds surround me
    the darkness envelopes me
    as the light fades
    the gloom fills my soul
    and I cry out for help
    but no-one hears me
    no-one sees me
    I am drowning in unhappiness
    joy evades my soul […]

    There’s a darkness about him
    cant put my finger on it
    something sinister and foreboding
    there’s no glow to his face
    like his hiding something
    dark clouds surround him

    But do I tell you my friend […]

    She’s back Imogen is back

    Dear Mamma, it’s been quite a while;

    Since last we spoke and you cracked a smile;
