i would go through this a hundred more times
if only it meant i could relive those special moments with you
because having you just for a moment is worth the pain of missing you for a lifetime
i think of you every day
i wish you would just get out of my mind
i wish we were fighting right now because at least it would mean you still cared enough
but in the end u are just a memory to me
a memory I can't put aside no matter how hard I try
i will always appreciate the love youve taught me to give
i would never wish to forget you
because even through all the pain youve given me so much of everything else ive ever needed
and i will never forgive myself for letting something so special slip between my fingers
i loved you more than you will ever know
and i still hold onto the thought of you
waiting for the day i can finally let you go
Silver Light
Shining
eye-catching
sliver light
you fade away
the light goes dark
awaiting stands the afterlife.
The silver light was drawing near
daring yourself
to peek out and see
the silver light
stands bright and tall
flashing lights
shine all along
What other people will fall for traps like this?
Things may not be like they seem
I learnt this quite the hard way
Though silver lights are catchy
perfect
gleaming
captivating...
Sometimes its better to keep to yourself
when harms way can be close to reach.
Make sure you know your boundaries
and silver light will recede.
Siri, please make me a sandwich.
Me: Siri, please make me a sandwich.
Siri: I’m sorry, I do not have the condiments.
Me (getting angry): Siri, I command you to make me a sandwich!
Siri: I’m sorry, Elie. I do not have the condiments to make a sandwich.
Me (slams down the phone): Siri, I’m done with you! Make me a sandwich or else!
Siri: Elie, why don’t you make me a sandwich?

Murdering three
I was nine years old when I murdered my friend, Nessie.
She had died fast, her body thrashing on the ground. I stared, awestruck. The only sadness I’d felt was when it was over. Destructive me.
I was ten years old when I killed Finley. He died the same way as Nessie, his body thrashing on the ground, squirming. It was a really interesting sight. And I've kept it a secret, because I'm pretty sure no one would have liked to hear that I had killed two of my good friends.
Finley and Nessie are buried together. I didn’t have that much space for them, because they were... well, they were really big. I used a shovel to sink them into the ground, and then I prayed for them.
I did the same thing when I was eleven to my other friend, Feefee. She died the same way, and I began getting bored of killing. I went out to bury Feefee that day, but then, my dad my stepped outside.
“Athena, will you take out the gar-” he’d started to say, then stopped when he saw me. His eyes grew big.
I was dragging Feefee out onto the lawn. My dad’s eyes grew even larger, if that was even possible, and his eyebrows bended over so much that they crossed. He looked ready to choke, and I couldn’t blame him. Dragging something takes a lot of effort.
“What is that your carrying?” He asked, his eyes now bulging out of his head. He closed his eyes. “Oh God, tell me I’m dreaming, tell me this isn’t real.”
He told me I had a lot to explain. And I did, later. I told him about Nessie, Finley, and Feefee.
Nessie, Finley, and Feefee.
In my life, I’ve murdered three.
Fish.

New
I was new to this world. I was about 2. My home was very dirty, just the way I liked it. My home was moving. It did that a lot. My home was moving towards a white valley. A huge object loomed over it. Suddenly, a jet of something hot shot down and started drowning me. I couldn't breathe! I was being boiled alive! I was being swept away from my home and landed in the valley. After that, I remember being somewhere dark and smelly. I was barely conscious. The stench of rotting germs who didn't survive. The grimy floor. This was an improvement!
