Literature

Replaced Angel

He feels so old and used up He's not the only fallen star anymore Upon a time he was the biggest of the bad-assed boys But now he's not even worth mentioning anymore A has-been player on a broken-down stage All his efforts have come to naught They're not unsuccessful; no, it's almost worse They're useless, he's done so well he's failed He can't turn good girls bad anymore It's wasted effort He's been replaced With shiny shoes and a credit card Rock stars and bottle blondes He's barely in charge anymore Everything's in chaos He feels so old and useless Made redundant by Hollywood Boulevard What's the point anymore It's not a

The Vacation

She ran away today And I need her back I've never lost something so important And I don't know what to do I got a call today (A wake up call) She tells me, she's on vacation But it sounded more to me Like she was on strike She knows how important she is to me But I don't know how to bring her home Call out the bloodhounds and the helicopters I'm desperate, I need her, I'm addicted I need her working with me I'll do anything to have her at my side I'll be more patient, more forgiving I'll try to be more caring than before I'll keep it up forever more Because without her I can't function She's got my heart and thoughts in th

Faith and Hope by Cerrilynne, literature

Literature

Faith and Hope

He was a big-hearted brown-eyed blonde With a life ahead of him But he cycled through the system A victim of his own anticipation He hoped so much his hopes were dashed Because all he had was faith He was a big-hearted brown-eyed boy With more virtues than he had faults But somebody wasn't listening to that rendition God was on vacation; why should he care When all you have is faith You'd better hope you've got faith in the right thing Otherwise you become a victim of the system Just another cog in the machinery of society Just like God's forsaken blonde haired boy He got caught up in trust and hope And he forgot about the vir

Shame

Shame Oh shame on me I screwed up I did a bad, bad thing But I claim ignorance As my excuse I didn't know How to do it Any better I did the best That I could do I was the best That I could be But oh Shame on me I failed I wasn't perfection incarnate Like you wanted I screwed up I fell down In your estimation I didn't do good enough To please you To pleasure you To make you smile I didn't succeed Didn't try hard enough (Oh, shame on me…) (What a shame…) (Shame on me…) (So sorry…)

My World by Cerrilynne, literature

Literature

My World

Welcome to my world Broken hearts and callous lies It's a part of life you grow up into I hope it doesn't break you like it broke me Say hello to the gatekeeper He'll let you out someday, he says Don't let the red eyes and dark smile throw you off He's not that horrible of a guy Well, for here Maybe I should remember where I'm coming from Because it's not a chivalrous, white knight kind of world We're all haunted here By broken dreams, fragmented promises, and wasted lies Welcome to my world Don't let the dark clouds make you cry for home You've been through worse Or couldn't have managed the journey to get here

Reasons by Cerrilynne, literature

Literature

Reasons

You're not my reason for being You're just a good excuse I live for me and me alone I'm selfish So what's new I live for me It doesn't matter That I love you too Love's not my driving force I'll survive another heartbreak I've been through it all before This is just another bump in my road So you're callous So was he You're nothing new Not to me You're not my reason to be My reasons are simpler I live for me For today For tomorrow's sun-shiny day I live for roses and for smiles You're not my reason You're just a convenient excuse You're my excuse Hope is easier to explain Than faith But honestly I have neither in

Broken-hearted Bastards by Cerrilynne, literature

Literature

Broken-hearted Bastards

She can't afford to go after the broken-hearted boys anymore They're breaking her, all to pieces, as she falls And they're so self-absorbed That they don't see How much 'she' resembles me Because once upon a time I thought I could heal you But all you were was full of insults All unwitting, you didn't even see You never even looked at me I'm so sick of broken-hearted bastards Who pay lip service to friendship Who don't even know how to pretend They can't even fake basic caring... decency And they wouldn't see... even if they tried Because nobody wants me if I care Nobody loves me, nobody could I've been broken into too many

When She Dances by Cerrilynne, literature

Literature

When She Dances

She's dancing her life away Without an ounce of regret Over and over she flies through the sky She's found her releases, her happiness In ballet Because when she dances She feels free She's not looking for someone to catch her She's independent She's dancing on feathered wings She's in perfect form Because dancing mends her broken heart And protects her from again She's been burned Twice too many times She doesn't care that she's dancing Her life away Because when she dances She feels free She's not looking for someone to catch her She's independent She's dancing on feathered wings She's in perfect form She's smiling W

Happiness by Cerrilynne, literature

Literature

Happiness

Show me a new life With a new love And a little bit of happiness Give me a new life In a new place With smiles instead of tears The more I cry The more my heart breaks And I can't afford to be in pieces anymore Too much is riding on right now More than happiness and smiles A future that I hope to God is mine All I want is for my tomorrows to be free Of depression and oppressing gray Here's to hoping hope's enough Here's to hoping faith's enough Because it's all that I've got left I've all but given up On happiness

Literature

Castle in the Sky

Welcome to my castle in the sky Where all these dreams were once mine Where my heart remains unblemished and unbroken And my soul remains unharmed and mine Welcome to my castle in the sky Where I remain unaffected as life rolls by Where my friends remain faithful and mine And what I do will always be good and true Welcome to my castle in the sky Where the walls and gates protect me from problems of mine Where the roses have withered into sharply piercing thorns And protect my hopes from casual lies Welcome to my castle in the sky Where I say it's lightening that make my eyes go blind Where I loose myself in dreams and lies And

Literature

Dance

We dance as though tomorrow's gone A day we'll never see We love as if no life's ahead And today's my only day with thee We dance and love as though No tomorrow shall we see Dance as though we've silken wings To love with in the clouds Flighty and free all the while We soar above the winds No tomorrow shall come to me And the thought shall set me free We dance and love under darkened skies The sun shall never rise for me It has begun, the end you see This world has not the life for me We dance and love and still we sing As though we've nothing left to leave There's really not, you understand In a world without tomorrow's su

Literature

Faded

I wish I could just Go away. Lock myself into a crowded room and Fade away. I don't want to be here, And I don't want to deal. I never really wanted this Never wanted to see you like this. Send me to an empty plane, Devoid of happiness and pain. Let me be me again, I don't want to be the way that I am. I don't want to deal, And I don't want to feel. So lock me in a crowded room, And watch me fade away. Why do I have to see you smile everyday? Why do I have to feel sorry for your pain, every time I stay out of your way? I want to believe that silence Would solve the problem of my broken heart And I want to believe, that

Fairy Tale - Lost

She drank to keep the memories Bottled up inside She drank with a desperate kind Of hopelessness She drank as though her drunkenness Could save her pretty eyes Could save them from the lies That say her love is gone That say she's all alone She downed bottle after bottle Just trying to forget Every bit of loneliness The fabled love that left her all alone Never to rejoice in life again She's got no one now And she can't stand it anymore She's goina hide inside A whiskey-drinkin' bottle Because she can't hide any other way Any longer So she drinks to keep her memories Hidden in her mind So that when she looks around At

Granite Drain by Cerrilynne, literature

Literature

Granite Drain

Can you see this world we live in With broken hearts and promises, With ghosts and lies and these crushed dreams of mine? We all had hopes for love, But then your hopes were dashed Against a granite drain. We all had star-specked eyes, But then your stars were smashed, Burned out by the rain. Well don't rain on my parade, And don't tell me the tide won't come in. Don't let my hopes be dashed. I want to keep my dreams. One, Two, Three, Four... I won't see the years wasted; I won't be made forlorn By broken promises Which should never have been made By your uncaring loves Who never should have mattered anyway. I never want

Jury-Rigged by Cerrilynne, literature

Literature

Jury-Rigged

In time Everything will be fine That's the kind of belief That made the world The crazy place We caused it to be Nothing will be all right If we don't fix it Things don't become okay Without effort; magically It's not another's job You're not a bystander in life It's not your fault And it's not mine But that's not an excuse For not trying to find A way to fix the problems That we face every day It's not another's job To find a way To jury-rig the world today It's not going to be okay Just because you hear them say It can wait another day

Literature

Intertwine

Darkness protect the child of light And light protect the shadow's soul Darkness shroud the air in shields Sun and shadow intertwine Forever night brings broken minds Light sans shadow means no tomorrow Darkness protect the light so bright Brightness save the broken shadow Darkness is home to shadowed demons Demons to be harnessed to protect Only the dangerous can save the beautiful And only beauty beats the demons away Light and dark dance along Wary but in desperate need Protector and protected opposites together Two halves to a fateful whole Shadows enfold the light shines through Darkness protects the saving bright Light

Momentary Weakness by Angel8, literature

Literature

Momentary Weakness

My mind Fades away to black Like the sunsets The horizons That we played with So far back In our lifetime Just a whisper Just a glance A hesitation Nonetheless But I will be free from all the promises Won't be weak from all the lies Maybe tomorrow things will be better But tonight I'll die a little Momentary weakness/ Came about in this story Where the hero has no glory Turn the light on I'm coming home Another long ass day away/ And maybe someday Maybe someday/ Maybe someday I'll be okay again The hope That I had in My heart here lies again Always newly Damaged Always bitter And I struggle/ To survive Caugh

Literature

This One Girl -Side One-

She's been used and played. Her feelings, tampered with. She's continuously betrayed, All by guys, guys like him. She lets him back into her life, And this is what he does. Make broken promises and make so many lies. A selfish jerk is what he is. This is too much pain for her mind and heart. The line between love and hate has been cut loose. Now their "love" they once had is torn apart. There was no REASON for this; just a lame excuse. Now she hates him, always and forever. He acts so coldly now, and doesn't even give a care. She hates him for doing this, and especially hates another, That other girl that caused the pain she h

What You Cant Give Her

Every night, she cries herself to sleep She prays to God, for him her soul to keep But God's not the one that listens to her plead It's Cupid, and he's not inclined to let her begging succeed She doesn't really know what to do She's got a real love, and she's so in love with you It's a big love, a love quite unrequited Look into her heart, do you see what you've ignited She's on fire with the passion of youth It's not her fault, she doesn't understand the truth Types don't change and she's not the one for you It's just that she doesn't know how to give up on her views And in her eyes you're absolutely a hundred percent perfect Ev

New Website and Other News

0 min read

Whee, finally got a fairly-well-working website for the story that was previously tentatively entitled "The Three Temples" and is now entitled "Thaumaturgists of Tlotte," which is, indeed, a mouthful, and shall henceforth be referred to as "ToT." Vickey and I have just started chapter eleven, although only chapter one is posted at the moment. The website still needs some tweaking, but it's capable of supporting the chapters now, and I'm sick of waiting. In other news, I have approximately nine more days until I have to start in on my summer homework, and approximately one month until the return of school. That's sad times. In more news, I

The Three Temples

0 min read

Whee... score one for the wannabe novelist. Finally started in on a new summer project, "The Three Temples." I'd tell what it's about, but I don't want to give it away. Got two chapters done, but I'm not sure what kind of chronological order I want, and they're not done being edited yet, so they get to sit on my computer and not be posted. It's a co-author effort between me and a friend, Vickey... but it's looking to be fun. Unfortunately, there's some cross-cultural miscommunications between me and my beta-reader, who is british. Apparently, in britain, people who are sort of dickish and a-holish, and popular... the kinds of kids who are th

Hello... I'm Xia, a.k.a. Cerri(lynne). I'm sixteen, 5'10, and blonde. I've got a mild talent for poetry, but my first love is prose. I'm currently in search of the patience to write the oh-so-elusive GAN (Great American Novel). As of this moment, I've written 230 poems in total. I have a copy of every single one except one that I threw away because it was too embarrasing... I've just started my summer break, and next year I'll be a senior in high school. My favorite male character is Lafe, the arrogant, overprotective bastage of Lornan fame, currently bonded to the leopard Joanna, and my favorite female character is the lady I draw my pennam
