Once Upon A Time...

Once upon a time, in faraway land, there lived a handsome Prince. The entire kingdom loved him and every maiden wanted to be his Princess. His mother and father wanted him to find the perfect Princess. So, the Prince went on many dates that his parents arranged. The maidens were usually the same: pretty, rich, spoiled, and mean. The prince tried his best to choose a Princess for himself, but he didn't feel that any of the maidens were for him. A little way outside the kingdom, a lowly maiden lived in a little old cottage. She worked at her grandmother's little old second-hand bookstore down the road from her home. While she was not at work,

Old Crush

Is that, no, it can't be… can it? I think I see my old friend coming towards Eddie's house. I didn't know they knew each other. I haven't seen him in years. I still remember his name: Heriberto Hernandez, but we called him Junior. He was my neighbor's cousin. And since I was at her house every day, I saw Junior a lot. I vaguely remember playing with him on the swing set in her backyard. He taught me how to do a back flip on the monkey bars and said I looked like a monkey. I wonder if he remembers me. I sure remember him; He was my first real crush. My friends and I are sitting in front of my friend Eddie's house talking. I'm

Old Crush, Part 2

A couple days later when I go to the baseball game at Bevier, I see him again. Everybody is already in little groups talking quietly to each other. So I decide to sit by the only person not talking: Junior. But crap. It's too quiet. "So, you're Roseanne's cousin, right?" Really Marissa? How lame can you get? Smiling, he replied, "Yeah. Marissa, right?" Ohmygod he remembers my name. "Yeah, Junior, right?" "Yeah" Somehow, that lame excuse for a conversation starter began the most incredible talk I have ever had with anybody. Well, at first, it was just about Skittles. You see, he bought a lot of snacks at the snack bar for everyone

Hidden

She hides behind her book Most don't even care or look She's a good kid, they say Gets good grades, perfect life But what no one ever sees Is the hurt and fear in her eyes She hides it well Her act is perfectly swell Just like anyone else She keeps a smile on her face When asked "how's your life?" She only gives them a taste "Life is cool, technically" If you count the cool tears Streaming down my face at night And the scars on my heart For putting up a good fight "How's your family?" "Good." Well, good as we'll ever be It will never end you see This life-long battle My family, him, and me.

Pause by AmateurExpert92, literature

Literature

Pause

You may say silence is silent But I believe otherwise Things you might call "sounds" Simply pause your mind Silence is loud, deafening Thoughts go through my mind, running Voices in my head, memories from the past Makes me want the silence to end now, fast Memories of fighting, yelling, screaming How much I wish I was only dreaming Silence is louder these past couple years It's gotten to be worse, even when I cover my ears So when I feel the silence approaching Memories pasted in my mind like a collage I reach for my ipod and put the headphones on I press "play" and put my mind on pause

Update :)

0 min read

Summer break = No School = No Photoshop = DEPRESSING :'( I do, however, have GIMP, although I don't really like it anymore. I got so used to using Photoshop!! So now GIMP feels just so UGH!!! Does anyone know of any better alternatives?! If so, please leave me a comment! :) I know I've been slacking on uploading new deviations, so now you guys know why. But I'll upload new stuff soon... I promise!!! :) I'm thinking about doing a "Peace" series. I might make more things like "Never Lose Hope" and "Dark Peace" (Links are posted below) I have a few ideas, but if anyone else has an idea for me, please leave a comment! :) http://amateurexpert

Hi there,

This message is probably a little overdue (like months overdue xD), but I want to thank you so much for watching me. I hope that you'll continue to enjoy the kind of work that I do and keep reading my poetry and literary works.
