Do Not Play the Game. by FelicitySilver, literature

Do Not Play the Game.

I’ve been studying Japanese at school. I’ve always been intrigued by the language and Japanese culture, so when my school added it as a foreign language I jumped at the opportunity. As part of an extra credit project (now halfway through my fourth year of learning Japanese), our teacher encouraged us to change the language for our browser, temporarily, to Japanese as a practical application of our learning and good practice. While browsing, we look up stuff interesting to us, read stories, browse Tumblr, whatever, then screencap pages here and there and write up a translation of each page. For every page of translations (our teach

Chronic Myeloid Leukemia

There’s a creature that haunts us, Daily it sinks its claws through his flesh Stealing bits of him for itself, Slowly wearing him down. It circles us, at the very edge of darkness, Prowling through our hearts, Nipping at our heels. Silent, Unseen, Always there. We take measures, He takes pills Attempting to poison the creature, At least to put it to sleep. At night, we lie awake Listening to its footfalls, Terrified as it draws near, Taunting us, watching us, Never allowing us to forget, One day it will drag him Away into darkness And never return.

On Tiptoe

If I tell you, I like you, Will you tiptoe carefully around me, Stepping lightly, For fear of making My infatuation Worse? Have you not, in guessing, Already done so? I hate lying to you, But I am afraid Of your response. Will you hate me? Be ashamed? Feel betrayed? Be gentle and kind In your rejection? Will you say, "It's fine," Then turn around, Change, And wait for me to… Get over it? Or will you Slowly start to avoid me, So you don't have to deal With treading lightly, Around a love-struck friend? Will you slip away, Slowly, Inching away, Ne'er to return? I am afraid of Losing you.. and of Loving yo

To Lie, Or Not To Lie

I…like you.. And…I feel like I am betraying you, Betraying your trust, Taking advantage of you – your kindness and your friendship – By…being attracted to you, By having the…audacity to… Want more. I joke of "circles" with a friend. One might think I refer to sex, that I objectify the act, But for me, It's not that! For me… I think of intimacy, Of closeness, Of bonds. I think of kissing you, Of holding your hand, Of brushing your leg with mine, Of lying in your arms, Of being touched and held, Safe and warm, Protected In your embrace. I think of walks, And conversati

Looking Close by FelicitySilver, literature

Looking Close

Looking Close Hello, have you seen myself? I seem to have misplaced it. Maybe you have seen it? Oh, how might it appear? Ah, well, at first glance, It appears normal: An average shape, Curvy, Long hair, Hazel eyes, Full lips, Snow-pale skin, A smattering of light freckles. Ah, but as you look closer… That is when you truly see it. Beyond the gestures, Below the skin, Past the smile, Deep into the hazel eyes, That is when you see the truth. Beyond the gestures, The body language of the Hale and hearty, The flapping away of suspicions, The false energy, Hiding the exhaustion, Disguising being done – Unab

Assumptions by FelicitySilver, literature

Assumptions

As some would argue, I agree that it would be nice to save intimacy for between one's self and whoever one cares for. Unfortunately, in society today, sex is a wide-open topic. And one's orientation is a large part of who they are--though this is often taken for granted by the heterosexual majority. Even the knowledge of a person's orientation is taken for granted: there is an assumption that everyone is heterosexual. Because of this, straight people are already "out" of the metaphorical closet. They are the majority and th

...Away and Back... by FelicitySilver, literature

Literature

...Away and Back...

...Away and Back... I have a place, A secret place, Where imagination comes alive I walk along the river, Past the big Oak tree, Through the fallen timber, And across the raging falls I come to my place, And step Into the circle The circle of dreams, Of truths, Of answers I feel myself fly, High and fast, I fly away, Away from here From reality I soar over mountains, Rivers, And oceans I dive deep and fast, Into the watery depths I turn to see the dolphins As they swim swiftly past, Frolicking, playing Chasing and all so happy, Unaware of tragedies above The memories nearly Pull me back, Back... To the painful

Wrote my first creepy story tonight. It scared by boyfriend when he read it, so I'm pretty happy with it. It creeped me out as I read it, too.

Losing my big Brother

0 min read

This past Saturday - the 26th of September, 2009 - I was roused from sleep at 5:36 in the morning with the devastating news that my older brother, Jacob, died in a motorcycle accident. I could not believe it. I still cannot. He has always been here, whether beside me or in an entirely different area of California. I cannot seem to realize the reality of the unreality I am in. I feel as if the ground below me has fallen away, yet I stand solidly upon the earth. I know it is not some sick joke as I wish it was, but I cannot seem to grasp it. It's hit me and yet it hasn't. I guess I'm pull of paradoxes. I don't know what to do. I don't know how

Sonnets

Hello Everyone, I'm in need of a little assistance. In English we have an assignment to write a sonnet; it can be Shakespearean, Petrarchan, or Spenserian. I'm having some issues with writing one. Does anyone have any tips on how to write a good sonnet?
