The Dangers of Falling in Love

Being picked up when you fall to the floor

Leaning on someone in your time of need

Hoping they remain the one you adore

Sometimes hanging back and letting them lead

Knowing they will always be there for you

But then the anger beings to crash down

And you are left wondering what to do

Should you leave them or continue to drown

A fake love is not good for anyone

Both souls will be damaged beyond repair

In the end neither will have had much fun

Love is not beautiful nor is it fair

In love you will find the charmers and fakes

Fools like to see if they have what it takes

We’re Best Friends Right?

I blinked up at the man in front of me, so mesmerized since I was in love with him, and realized that he sees me as a friend, a best friend, but still a friend, however I am hopelessly in love with my best friend, and either he doesn't want to admit it to him self, or he is as clueless as he is cute, because everyone can see it, except him, so I just keep looking at him and say, "Of course we are best friends," as I long for more.

ING!
Create a poem where each last word ends with 'ing'.

In the morning

I wake up sighing

I leave to go walking

On the bus I am sitting

My coffee is mixing

My head is tilting

Through the doors I go bouncing

Walking up to him smiling

Getting ready by changing

On the line ready for calling

Almost ready to be crying

Because he will be ignoring

Going through the motions struggling

I find someone to bring in laughing

The shift ends with me having tears but grinning

Sitting there waiting

For my ride to finish cleaning

So I can go home and finish crying

How are you?
Just put it out there. In any form of writing. Thoughts that are eating you up, feelings you've pushed down... Won't judge. Don't limit yourself on curse words either - if that's how you're feeling. If you need to express yourself, I'm here. Also, no winners, no losers in this challenge

Pissed off. Livid. Torn. Hurt. Why do I care? Why am I stuck being in love with someone that can't and won't love me back? It pisses me off that I stretch myself thin for a bitch at work I don't even like. My blood boils when I think about a girl trash talking me and then coming for my throat when I do the same. Fuck this life. This can't be it. I can't only find joy in a stupid rom-com that would never actually happen in real life because the guy would be arrested.

Is my brain broken? I laughed and giggled at the fat pigeons on the walk to work but then cried because I had to ask a chef on the line for fries. Make it make sense.

I could look at the most beautiful view ever and it won't click. Nothing is there. But he could leave me a stupid note at my work station and I will put it on my wall to look at when I'm down.

He won't love me. She hates me. They all don't actually care about me in the long run. Hopefully I love me, and care about myself enough to get through this.

Lament Or Celebrate The Inherent Insatiability Of Existence (30 Words Or Less)
Yep, that's what I said: 30 words or less. Exciting, right? Isn't it simply better to be restricted? To have rules to follow or even to break. After all, to accomplish something by limited means is a far more agreeable feat than to face the queasy expanse of a blank slate, is it not?

Pigeons

Get excited at seeing fat pigeons on your walk and realize that they are enjoying their time more than you are.

in 15 words, describe a moment or activity you've shared with someone which makes you love that someone even more.
So this challenge was originally created by EstherFlowers1 like 2 years ago, but I like it so much I kind of want to steal it.. It's okay to have a bit of leeway, but try to stick to about 15 words. Please tag me in the comments below your post cause otherwise I don't get a notification :) Have fun!

Cards

I set up our daily 7AM card game, we had hours to play before class.
