Mommy... Johnny brought a gun to school,
He told his 老友记 that it was cool,
And when he pulled the trigger back,
It shot with a great crack.
Mommy, I was a good girl, I did what I was told,
I went to school, I got straight A's, I even got the gold!
But Mommy, when I went school that day,
I never 说 good-bye,
I'm sorry Mommy, I had to go, But Mommy, please don't cry. When Johnny shot
the gun, He hit me and another,
And all because Johnny, Got the gun from his older brother.
Mommy, please tell Daddy; That I 爱情 him very much,
And please tell Chris; my boyfriend; That it wasn't just a crush.
And tell my little sister; That she is the only one now,
And tell my dear sweet grandmother; I'll be waiting for her now, And
tell my wonderful friends; That they always were the best; Mommy, I'm not
the first, I'm no better than the rest.
Mommy, tell my teachers; I won't 显示 up for class,
And never to forget this, And please don't let this pass.
Mommy, why'd it have to be me? No one deserves this,
Mommy, warn the others, Mommy I left without a kiss.
And Mommy tell the doctors; I know they really did try,
I think I even saw a doctor, Trying not to cry.
Mommy, I'm slowly dying, With a bullet in my chest,
But Mommy please remember, I'm in heaven with the rest. Mommy I ran as
fast as I could,
When I heard that crack, Mommy, listen to me if 你 would,
I wanted to go to college; I wanted to try things that were new,
I guess I'm not going with Daddy, On that trip to the new zoo.
I wanted to get married, I wanted to have a kid,
I wanted to be an actress, Mommy, I wanted to live.
But Mommy I must go now, The time is getting late,
Mommy, tell my Chris, I'm sorry but I had to 取消 the date.
I 爱情你 Mommy, I always have, I know; 你 know it's true, And Mommy all
I wanted to say is,"Mommy, I 爱情 you."

***In Memory of The Columbine Students Who Were Lost***
Please if 你 would,
Pass this around,
I'd be happy if 你 could,
Don't smash this on the ground.
If 你 pass this on,
Maybe people will cry,
Just keep this in your heart,
For the people who didn't get to say "Good-bye."
Now 你 have 2 choices,
1) Repost and 显示 people 你 care
2) Ignore it and 你 have just proven 你 are a heartless mole

Dearheart I kinda wish there was a third option. When I read this a while back, I admit it was sad and touching (despite the fact that the poetry wasn't the greatest, lol), but it's been passed around SO many times and become so, [i]so[/i] cliche that...well, I guess I'm a "heartless mole" now. :-/ Go ahead and bash me if you want. *never really appreciated chain-email-guilt-trips to begin with...* EDIT: Woah. Uses the word "Mommy" way too much, lol. 24 times! Sheesh! "Mommy blah blah blah mommy blah blah blah mommy mommy MOMMY blah blah blah..." Wow, I feel really mean now... *laughs nervously*

Sweet_Pants It is sad, but doesnt change my opinion on it. I always thought there was another way, as all.

VampirePrinsess Well if its ur option than its ur opinio so i cant blame u........

BrittanyAM It was beautful but sad it made me cry and no i cant pass it on cuz i'm too shy i would if i wasn't shy and no that dosen't make me a (heartless mule) cuz i wouldn't pass it on but it will all ways been in my heart and stay there (forever)!!!!!!

Cammie This has really saddened me, both the poem and the smart-arse heartless comments from some. Cliche? That's a really friggin interesting word to describe innocent people being slaughtered by wackos. Thank you for posting this.

Twilightzook I agree with BrittanyAM.

Cinders This is a chain letter. Touching as it may or may not be, it is not original work. Soapboxes are meant for original poetry and writing, not for chain letters. If you want to post this in the forums of a more appropriate spot, than I fully support that, but I don't think it belongs here if it isn't original work. I'm sorry to be blunt, but I'm getting really tired of seeing so many people posting chain letters and unoriginal work as soapboxes. MajorDork got a lickin' for doing that, and at the time I supported it, but if you only enforce a law sometimes, it's not fair to the people who suffer the consequences if others can get away with it.

SkyHedgehog that was beautiful

Heya WOW

inexplicable ... so sad...

Jakeluvr101 Whoa that wa so amazing i luvd it

twibabe2 it was woundful love it

HecateA its nice, but I think some of the beauty of the work gets taken out of it when you say things like "tell my daad I wont go to the zoo", "tell Chris I had to cancel the date" and "tell my teacher I won't be going to class today".

dramarama That was beautiful...made me cry. People today have a very odd interpretation of the word cliche. It may be a recycled theme, but feelings can never be cliche. btw people have used the word cliche so much lately that it in itself has become 'cliche'.

EmzLovesCheryl This is beautiful, it made me want to cry.

ladycountry omg it's so sad.i like it

PoweredKaoru that was sad, and since it says mommy so much it sounds like a little kid(around 5-9) is saying it, which makes it even more sad.

luna-lefright wow how sad!!!!!

krissynaytowhow wow thats thesadest thing i ever heard well not as sad as my grampas funeral

The Distance In Your Eyes (Short Story)

posted by gravity12

I stand here looking at your emotionless, cold face from across this empty field. Behind me stand my most beloved people of all the world besides 你 with me. I can hear them breathing nervously along with mines, as I take slow, steady steps towards you. Our breaths get 更多 nervous as I near you. However your piercing stare will not scare me, even if this act will be the last thing I do. With each step I try to remember through hazy memories what went wrong.

Only weeks 以前你 were a bubbly, lively, cheerful and friendly girl who wanted to have fun. Along with me, we were unstoppable, nothing...

Human: Chapters 2 & 3

CHAPTER TWO
“Ok well the whole not kicking me thing is definite progress!” I 说 the uncomfortable silence was killing me. His midnight blue eyes for once showed something, I couldn’t tell if it was surprise 或者 anger, though it was probably anger. That seemed to be a common theme with him. He walked over to me and I noticed that his feet still didn’t make a sound as they brushed against the dry ground.
“Ok,” He said, “what gave 你 the idea that I’m still human?” I rolled my eyes as I brought them up to meet his. “Well for...

Buy my 爱情

posted by blossomyumyum

I know I asked for too much before
I know I deserved for 你 to walk out the door
But 你 didn’t need to give it away
I promise 你 I’ll give it a try

你 don’t have to buy my love
你 don’t need to give so much
I know I asked for a lot, never seemed satisfied
The word want makes me needy
Cause 你 don’t have to buy my love

Wants have become a trigger
I’ll put your white string around my finger
Shouldn’t have asked
I never should’ve asked

你 shouldn’t be buying love,
Don’t give it all away to me
I hope 你 finally see
That wanting from 你 makes me feel
你 shouldn’t buy my love

Dear Noel,
I wish 你 were still here. At times I go back to when we were little- we loved to eat Push Pop Ice Cream and played in the pool every 日 at summer. 你 were my best friend….. But we were like sisters, playing house with my little brother. Your grandmother got along with my grandmother, too- they talked to each other, and life seemed to be so easy. But then we parted 由 moving away. I still thought of 你 every day, and every night I worried that something would happen to you. But now, you’ve left us all, and gone on to a place only 你 and your sister know about, along with...

The New Age (prologue)

posted by graystone

I don't remember how long I've been running on the open grounds. It does seem long enough. But I was determined,devoted. Up above me,I noticed the jet planes streaking through the blue-black sky. I did not care. I did,but I'm not going to pay any 更多 attention to it than the sinking feeling of hopelessness that wrapped my mind. The grounds were filled with rocks and sharp stones. Any other day,I would have bothered to watch my way trying not to fall onto the sharp stones which threatened to tear my skin,but not today. No,not today...
There were sirens screaming faraway,in my direction and...

Chapter 1
The new girl
The first thought that came to Phire's mind of the new 首页 she was ment to live in for the 下一个 four years was how strange. Her new hometown looked like something from a movie 或者 a magazine.
If Phire hadn't known that she was in Open fields she probably would have mistaken this for L.A. 或者 even Hollywood.
Everywhere Phire looked there was always something there. Whether it was stores 或者 houses 或者 even forests, it all looked perfect. What was funny was that Open Fields didn't even have a single farm. Nothing personal to the place but with...

Max's POV
I ran into my room crying. My head and my 心 ached. I thought it was clear I loved Fang, but I guess he didn't know. I saw him 接吻 a blonde haired tramp at school today. I fell on my 床, 床上 and burried my face in a pillow. I cried.

10 分钟 later

I heard my door open, but I didn't dare to look. I knew who it was and I didn't want to talk to him. Fang sat down 下一个 to me and stroked my back.
"Max what's wrong?" He said, worriedly. I just shook my head.
"What's wrong?" I took my head out from under the 枕头 and stared daggers at him. I didn't care my mascara was running 或者 that...

20 things guys should know about girls (will update as I think of more)

posted by angeladdie270

1) Girls (at the age of 15 或者 so) think about sex just as much as guys do... The only catch is some of us think about it for the emotional parts, and some of us like it for the physical parts. You'd be surprised who is in which group.

2)If 你 like us, tell us. Do not be worried about what we'll think, because we are flattered no matter if we like 你或者 not.

3) Most of the time girls are 99% sure when a guy likes us. The only way to be 100% sure is if 你 tell us.

4) For some strange reason I've always found myself to become attracted to guys that like me. (Unless they're super creepy and stalk...

Save Me Ch. 8

"Alessa! What happened?!" Micah shouted. I had a long, somewhat deep scar around my face. Last night Dad pushed me down the stairs, and the railing had scratched my face. But I just shook my head.

"Nothing. I just fell," I said. He sighed and shook his head.

"Would 你 please be 更多 careful? Do 你 know what it'd do to me if anything happened to you?" I frowned.

"I'm sorry," I 说 quietly. He rolled his eyes and hugged me.

"C'mon. We're late for school."

After school, I told Micah I wanted to go to the park 或者 something; just to have fun. I didn't tell him I was still afraid to go home. He...

"Overall, I can say that I do love him.."<3

I was still in his tight embrace. I never noticed how warm he was. Well maybe because I have never really hugged him like this before. I was just happy to have him back.
"Mmmmm. I missed you." I heard him whisper in my ear.
"Mmmm...No I'm pretty sure I missed you." I manged to whisper back. It felt a little weird saying that too him. I didn't want to be all rude and not say it back, but I just.. I still haven't decided whether I actually wanna go through with this 或者 not.
Granted, I did say that I do 爱情 him like 爱情 him, 爱情 him, but at the same time I 爱情 him as my best friend and right...

He took my face in his hands, so normally-as if it were a natural instinct to be doing something like this with me.
My breath caught in my throat,as we inclined our heads towards each other in perfect unison.
His lips were warm and soft and sweet,all at the same time,the sensation blinded me.That he was 接吻 me,not other better girls who'd had 更多 experience.My 心 was beating like a birds wings fluttering together in my chest.
Taylor pressed his forehead against mine ans sighed,his breath warmed my face.
We pulled back form each other but still twined our fingers together like we were never...

My story

It was a cold, breezy Autumn evening while Anna Brown, a reasonably fair girl, was watching EastEnders. She loved this programme and never missed it.

Anna, like I said, was a reasonably fair girl. Her kindness and helpfulness would sometimes flatter people. When she was a little girl, people used to 'oooh' and 'aaah' at her cuteness.

Soon Anna's Mother put her to bed. Her Mother told her to go to 床, 床上 early that night for her Mother had a surprise in-store for her the 下一个 morning. It was for Anna's 9th birthday and she was extremely excited.

At the door, there was a woman, and 下一个 to her was a large, purple, alien. "I'm Charlotte, and this is Penelope, the proud mother." 说 the woman. Penelope happily greeted us. "Where's the dad?" I asked.

"Oh, Zapnis? I honestly don't know where he ran off to this time. I suppose 你 want to see the babies?" she led us into a room. One ran forward, and crashed into my legs. She was light pink. "Boys are...

Spirit Of Stone part 5

Eddie just sat there in the plain dark room, looking at the many tubes coming from the floor to the ceiling. He wondered how far away he was from home, he wondered what his parents thought, and if they'd already called the police, trying to look got him. He estimated that it had been about 3 day's sence he'd been taken. Now he could tell that it was getting dark, he wasn't sure how though, the room was dark, had no windows and was cold and damp. He thought that he might starve down there, sence the mutants hadn't been down there for some time now. He really thought that they were just messing...
