OnTheOtherSide

Wanted: Fifteen words, either a sentence by themselves or randomly chosen and thrown together. Why: Because I want to suffer by creating a story, that preferably makes sense, using those words.

Fifteen words? super easy,

the challenger is just being sleazy,

my flow is still breezy.

Blame the coffee

Stood up looking at the sunrise with a cup of coffee in my hand,

was feeling pretty confident so i confessed to the girl i liked without thinking and hit send.

Later in the day anxious me decided to face my fear and open the chat,

then i saw she had blocked me on whatsapp.

Challenge

Angels & Demons

In any style of the written word, I want to hear about the angels and demons in your head or on your shoulder. What ideas do they represent, who put them there, do they amuse you? do they abuse you? do they protect you? e.g personal heavens and hells mindscapes...

ONE MORE MINUTE

One more day

one more step

down the hall it slowly crept

In my ear

on my mind

all the walls I could've climbed

I must resist

I must restrain

the longing nagging at my brain

Just one more hour

one more minute

I won't let the demons win it.

THE PRICE YOU’LL PAY

The price tag has been torn away

It's unraveling at its seams

Does this mean that love is priceless,

Or could the cost of love be free?

I don't know why I had to have it

I can't remember what caught my eye

Why didn't I see the price I'd pay

For not resisting, as I walked by.

Love will wrap it's arms around you

It can feel warm or cold as ice

If you place your bets on love

you're gonna have to pay the price.

The Edge

Why am I never enough

for the men that I love.

Wish I rendered them speechless.

Wish I was the drug.

IF I’M NOT MISTAKEN

My nails are filed down to the quick

My hair is all tangled; all the windows I've licked

Last night I walked and danced in the rain

If I'm not mistaken; I've gone insane.

My mind filled with paranoia; I'm angry and sad

I'm pretty sure the nurses have killed my Dad.

The people here are drinking my blood that they've drained

If I'm not mistaken; I've gone insane.

I'll sleep when I'm ready; I'll swallow the drugs

I'll pick at my arms crawling with bugs

I'm not an animal; I refuse to be trained

If I'm not mistken; I've gone insane.

Is this real, or am I mistaken?

Do you keep a record of the drugs that I've taken?

Surroundings are unfamiliar; they've altered my brain

If I'm not mistaken; I've gone insane.
