Wow! Ol' Writing

So, I wrote this awhile ago, but I just kind of wanted to post it. Not really sure why yet, but I'm doing it anyways. So there!...lol.

985 Cranes
By Moi

Now that the cranes have suddenly gone
And their sweetly covered words have disappeared
I am left;
Left with the hope that they will return;
Left with the reality that they may not;
Left with the sad memory of their departure.
Flashing images plague my eyes
Whether they be opened or closed.
In my mind, reels turn to remind me;
Remind me of the sweeter times;
Remind me of precious moments;
Remind me of the end.

The end.
It came with little warning.
Days before the departure there was no sign;
No sign of chill in the air;
No sign of frost on the ground;
No sign of ice on the rivers.
I believed I could keep them forever.
As the wintery breeze gained strength, I saw the distance grow;
Grow between those cranes and I;
Grow between those precious moments;
Grow between those sweeter times.

So, Now, I am left, but have I lost;
Lost my self;
Lost my strength;
Lost my passion for life?
No.
I have lost my cranes and I have lost their sweetly covered words.
But I pray that they find;
Find their self;
Find their passion;
Find their happiness.


What do you think? I hope you enjoyed it. Some things I'm not happy with yet, but for the most part I like it.
Keep an eye on those days!

CRAZy Feeling!

I feel terrible for all the people in my life right now. I've been so crazy lately. It's kind of ridiculous actually! I mean, I've been surprising myself with my crazy roller coaster emotions and stress level. I'm shocked that anyone is still talking to me. I don't think I'd talk to me, but I guess I kind of have to...lol.
School started out way stronger than I was expecting and not living with family really put me off balance. I think a lot of it comes from not really being able to plan out my next steps. I want to just know already. Where am I gonna get my first job? What's the next big project due in methods? What am I doing this weekend? Will my grades be what I want them to be this semester? Will I EVER be able to pay my Dad back for everything? (Well, probably not, but I plan to try.) Will my friends and I make it through the year as friends? What does this year hold for me?
Just crazy......I can't wait for things to just fall in place, but I also know that with the answers comes the experience, emotions and everything else that goes with the lessons. I'm not sure how I'll react or behave, but I do know that I will make it through no matter what the outcome...
Here's to the days disappearing under your feet and wishing that the world would stop spinning...
