Stretch your minds, pour your hearts out, and vivify you souls. Who will lay claim to the covetted Leather, Red, and Charcoal Sketchbooks? Let the competition begin!

WONDERING


I wonder if you think of me
When night is drawing near.
And in the shadows of your room
The walls around you disappear.
I wonder if in your quiet thoughts
Your dreams of me are anymore.
When in the silent, velvet blue
The moon is tapping at your door.
I wonder if the shining stars
That dangle from the clouds above
Reminds you of my whispered words
In promise of eternal love.
I wonder of the lonely light
That breaks upon the early dawn
Still holds a tender memory for now
So long I have been gone.
I wonder if you dream of me
When the cloudless skies are blue
Because across each day and night
My thoughts are constantly of you.

To die in your love,
To die a hundred times more,
To never leave your side.

Ok, this poem was written about someone I thought I loved, though it is slightly modified from the original copy that I gave her...My friends seemed to think this was a good poem, though...

Like a moth to a flame
You draw others to you
You once asked for a reason
So now I'll tell you what's true
We have much in common
We two, you and I
But staring at you
Is like watching the sky
Both ever changing
And never the same
Different each and every day
Like a guessing game
The way that you laugh
And the way that you smile
Tends to make life
More worth my while
The way that you listen
To what I have to say
It always keeps me smiling
All through my restless day
So in short, the reason
That I love you
Is you're smart, you're funny
And you're beautiful too
