I love to lay upon my trampoline staring into the deep, blue sky or looking at my neighbor's tree which amidst the leaves, only I can see the beautiful sky bird egg. The white egg glints at me and I hear the scream of its protectors. I imagine the huge pale blue bird with its fluffy white eyes and golden beak. Then I see more some with white spots like the clouds in the sky, slightly darker birds with pink on the beaks, there's even a dark blue one with a shiny silver beak and eyes, silver spots glinting on its back like the countless stars at night. I look at the tree and see the mothers wings camouflaged to match the leaves. With the grace

Clouds coat the sky, there is nothing but various shades of grey. I lean back a agains the thick trunk of the tree and stare up through the leaves. The dark browns and greens with a dark grey background. I sigh loudly and open my mouth. What does it take to build a wall What does it take to break it down What does it take to open up And let me see See the beauty behind those eyes Ohhh That wall is coming down Coming down fast Water begins to fall from the sky and I listen as it hits the leaves and the ground. The soft thump thump. I start to sing again. I will break it down Tear it down Bring it to a ruin To fix that smile "You can't sing

SUICIDE WARNING (minor) The screams echoed in the night All I could do was lay in bed and try to ignore them No-one else heard them It was just me They sounded so close and so distant So real But they were fake In my head So I had to put an end to them And those nights of trying to block them out I could only think of one way

The castle loomed above our heads. In that classic dark and misty manner. There was no sign of life, other than or breathing. Simultaneously heavy and refrained, from the climb and fear. The silence was broken. By one of those screams that haunt the night. High and painful. The sound of torture. We had to go in. To help her. Leaving was not an option. But now it is. You've come to take our place. Good luck.

The carrots were just beginning to grow in the garden. They were the first plants to come up. I was so excited. "I can't wait to make a vegetable soup!" I exclaim to my mother over the phone. It's only early days but I remember working in the vegetable garden with dad as a kid, before the accident.

The ground is hard and dry, the grass is hot and covered with burrs; but I refuse to wear shoes. I look over to the water just meters in front of me, I can't wait to get in. I watch as the boat approaches and plod over to the edge of the water. It noses in and I walk into the cool water, its such a nice difference from the heat. I  dive across the top of the water and come up at the end of the boat. I climb up the back and walk up the side. Stepping on the side of the boat I pull my wakeboard from the rack and take it the end of the boat. My mum hands me my life jacket and and I put it on. I place the board on the deck at the back and pull th

I listen to the patter of the rain fall on the roof, I watch as the droplets hit my window and race to the bottom. I watch as puddles form on the ground and as the trees gather the water. I watch as the droplets explode on the concrete and get absorbed in the puddles. I watch as the sun comes out and shines. I watch as the birds sip from puddles, as the ground dries and hardens. I watch.

The waves crash over my body, I am pushed back and forth as they pull and throw me. They crash on each other in a load roar. I close my eyes and hold my breath as another wave crashes over me and pushes me forward only to pull me back.

Sleep. What is it? Going comatose for a few hours so you can have a 'productive day'. Missing several hours of you day just to reset your brain and store your memories. Sleep is forgetting the day for a while and not having problems, slipping into an alternate reality where things are better, or worse.

Moving. Slowly at first but gradually the speed increases until you are flying and all you can see is the green streaks of life as you fly past at unimaginable speed. You fly as fast as you can faster still until the lines disappear and it's just you and black. Then you wake up.
