Still Waiting by obliwen-kenobi, literature

Literature

Still Waiting

Her neck's so sore from looking at the stars She's bound and broken but you cannot see her scars Trying to escape but she cannot see the way Hiding from the world painting shades of gray And she's waiting for the bush to burn And waiting for her saviour to return She's still waiting She's still waiting Such a kind man, never broke those two stones Everybody loved him, he was never alone His wife just thought that he was working late He was on his way home but now he's at the gates And now he's waiting for an angel to come And waiting to see the sun Now she cries herself to sleep In a crumpled messy heap And no matter how she l

Literature

Uninspired

Fix my suit, ring the doorbell I really hope I can get you back 20 roses, one for each year You probably thought that I'd forgot The door's unlocked and your car's in the driveway Open the door and call your name Hairdryer's going, guess you can't hear me I'll come in and surprise you And there you are I'm glad I wasn't five seconds later You fall into my arms And a million feelings run through my head You've been gone for a while I don't know why Haven't seen you smile or seen you cry The colour's run out and my eyes are tired Just shades of gray so uninspired Can't understand why you were so unhappy Can't comprehend why you

Literature

Waiting

Her neck's so sore From looking at the stars She's cut so deep But you cannot see the scars And she's waiting And waiting And waiting For her angel Such a selfless man Noone thought he'd have ill fate He was on his way home Now he's at the gates And now he's waiting And waiting And waiting For his angel Now she cries herself to sleep In a crumpled messy heap And no matter how she lies She feels the emptiness inside He comes in and strokes her hair She doesn't know that he is there But in her dreams it feels so real And she's waiting And waiting And waiting For her angel And he's waiting And waiting And waiting An

Opposite Reaction

I pass another street sign Bright lights Streaking by Dots and dashes turn to white In mid-flight Fade away Everything I wish I knew Is right in front of me Far away another apple falls Another victim of gravity With every tick I feel a little older A little colder Time goes by Every time I look over my shoulder Another boulder Morning light Everything I wish I knew Is right in front of me Right in front of me an apple falls Another victim of gravity And you're still falling And I'm falling with you And you're still falling And I'm flying with you Take a picture cos it lasts longer It doesn't matter We won't have ti

Footprints by obliwen-kenobi, literature

Literature

Footprints

"Footprints" You came walking into my garden Not knowing what you'd find Weaving your way through a tangled mess Of bushes and overgrown vines I talked to you in riddles To protect it from you But you could walk straight through them There was nothing I could do Tread softly in my garden Cos there's something you might break Don't want to see you fall to the ground Don't want to make a mistake As you venture deeper There's places I've never seen You're slowly finding things That I never knew were there I let you into my garden And you left footprints everywhere Now it feels like you're a part of it It will never be the sam

Part of Me by obliwen-kenobi, literature

Literature

Part of Me

You were there when I needed you most You really cared You helped me through the times Which without you I couldn't have beared All I have I owe to you You're more than my best friend I can tell you all my secrets On you I can depend You make me who I am It's you that makes me be When I'm with you I feel complete Cos you're a part of me You shared my joys and my tears Yet you never pried Like a pillow you were always there If I needed to hide and cry When I was feeling nervous You'd take my hand and it would be ok If ever I got lost Like a candle you'd show me the way You make me who I am It's you that makes me be When I

Thank You by obliwen-kenobi, literature

Literature

Thank You

Thank you, for teaching me how to smile, how to laugh, how to be myself. You will often be thought of, you will always be loved, and you will never be forgotten. The world is blessed to have been changed by you, your friends are blessed to have been touched by you, and I am blessed to be your friend. In memory of Sarah Frazer. Orange 4 eva!

My Perfect World by obliwen-kenobi, literature

Literature

My Perfect World

In my world, Where all the roses are the perfect shade of red, All the oranges are perfectly round, All the birds sing at perfect pitch, And the water in every river is pure. In my world, Where every blade of grass sits at the same angle, Every pebble is the same shape and size, Every wave breaks with the same sound, And at night, the stars twinkle in unison. In my world, Everything is perfect, For if it is blemished is cannot be allowed, And so, my world is perfectly empty.

Safe by obliwen-kenobi, literature

Literature

Safe

The warm embrace of your presence surrounds me holding me tight, dissolving my fears melting me, washing away tears Brittle layers fall away from my skin, shedding my burdens, setting me free slowly revealing the veritable me Fond memories come flooding back illuminated by your aura, glowing with bliss giving me hope now life is amiss An ethereal tingling overcomes me, as I feel your gentle touch assuaging my pain though I sense you are here it's not the same My reverie slowly fades away, shimmering, becoming a smile on my face I won't let go if you don't.

Google maps is pretty cool... Not as good as google earth, but its free and it runs entirely in a web browser. This is where my home is: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=-17.942890,146.093445&spn=0.037623,0.059279&t=k&hl=en (South Mission Beach, Queensland, Australia) This is where I live at the moment / go to university: http://maps.google.com/maps?&ll=-19.328315,146.757431&spn=0.037318,0.059279&t=k&hl=en (James Cook University, Townsville, Australia) This is where I will be going to work next year: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=-20.719190,139.474182&spn=0.073978,0.118558&t=k&hl=en (Mount Isa, Queensland, Australia - Mine on the left, T

Fake M and M's

0 min read

I made the most amazing discovery today whilst wondering through an Action Supermarket in Townsville: CHACHAs They taste exactly like M&M's but they are like $1.20 for a 200g packet. Jackpot! Just what a poor student chocoholic like me needs.
