twinkeling stars and burns

twinkling stars
red flashes of light
bursts of flames
over and over it happens
out of the fire
still with the pain
the world quickly
catches a flame
running screaming
a red burst a loud crash
i quickly sit up
sweating panting screaming
another dream
another nightmare
a nurse runs in
trying to calm me
i want to run away
i fall to the cold hard floor
not caring for the pain giving up
i know its over
forget the pain
the pain that twists and turns
the pain that burns my heart and soul
the nurse picks me up
she sets me on the soft bed
she starts rubbing the burns
the big black burns that cover me, burning me
darkness gathers around me
twinkling stars beckon
flashes of lights fade
bursts of scorching currents trying to bring me back
the stars are calling
my heart stops
the pain is gone, I'm gone
gone from the pain
gone from the nightmares
now I'm free, free from everything
I'm among the twinkling stars now
and I'm never coming back

~ok im not depressed..... i think?~

Question for the Teachers

The end of the school year is coming pretty hastily. So what becomes of the 9th graders who were involved in this group and this blog? Do we get like kicked off or something when the year ends? Are we aloud to still come to meetings next year even thought we'll be at the high school? I have a feeling that this group (if continued) will grow and become something very cool. I want to watch that or possibly still be involved. So what can/should I do?

???

So um... I couldn't help but notice we haven't had a contest or anyone posting any of their work on here, so... what's going on?

Teen Writing Conference

So as some and or most of you know, there will be a Teen Writing Conference on the 6th on June (Saturday). It looks kinda cool. You guys probably got a flier for it, but here's a link just for reference:

Yes.

Remember, all forms have to be mailed in by the 25th!

Re: Poetry Slammage

Just out of curiosity, what did all of you fellows think about the poetry slam? Reactions? Observations? Claims of epic win? I'm just wondering because I have nothing better to reflect upon/do right now (besides update my actual blog for no reason other than to rant about magazines someone found, Twitter, and my age-changing thing soonish and also talking about myself in a post on a school blog that should basically have nothing to do with me). I enjoy feedback and perspective, in short, is all. So to speak.

Uhhh, personally, I thought it was neat. But I didn't really pay much attention. I had to add up numbers and whatnot. Nothing to see there.

Yes. What did you think?
