The Night the Truth Stayed Silent
The road was long, the night was cold, A stranger walked into the town. His coat was torn, his hat pulled low, His weary eyes fixed on the ground. The streets lay still, the lamps burned low, Behind locked doors, all lay at rest. But in the bar, the glasses clinked, As whiskey warmed the sleepless guests. He stepped inside, the room fell...

I should've stayed on the side but I am hiding already
Now my hands rest in my pockets and I stay still and don't bend. You know I still can't see the end, well one thing I sticked on. But still the only thing I wanted to go away. You really did as If you ripped off everything of my body, nothing's there that would describe myself clearly. During that...

Premium Member Gable and Vivien in Stayed With The Heat
The trees grows tomorrows leaves it's yesterday and Spring was here it waited for the Summers Eve and Autumn's spread of gourd ease and winter's rest on Christmas gifts a world of wander opens the gate and behold their living past are now at last alive again into your loving open arms and you are mindless to stench of their scent turned to zombies and start...

Premium Member On Leaving my State versus if I Had Stayed
I left my state to study afar. A church college lured me to go west where it’s so dry and no fireflies are. But I was young and followed no star that could lead me to what would be best. I left with no really firm goal. A psychology major I’d thought to pursue. My apathetic soul got off that bus. A different...

Premium Member I Chose To Run But Had I Stayed
As it is feature of choleric personality, I was often hot, dry, and fiery in totality; Speck like small imperfection is enough to flare me up, My temper got agitated like hot tea in steel-cup...! Single word or deed of annoyance of any neighbor, My aggression tried to pierce them like a sharp-edged saber; I tried to alter my accommodation from...

If Only the Love Stayed
If only the love stayed Love of devotion and grit Why didn't the Love stay, The Love I see best fit You were here until you weren't Pushed through with all your might You stayed until you couldn't Maybe you were right I ask for a lot, but I give so little I understand you leaving Maybe I'm just too brittle I wanted you...

Premium Member I Chose To Run But Had I Stayed Things Would Have Been Like
A continued cycle of torture and abuse: If I stayed, I would probably be dead, so I had no choice but to run as far away as I could. Living with you was hell on earth; as soon as you knew I loved you; everything changed. I didn’t know at the time that you were grooming me. You made it,...

'i Chose To Run, But Had I Stayed, Things Would Have Been Like'
For you, not for me. The words I said to myself years ago. While looking at what seemed like a reflection of myself. With clenched fist knowing I didn’t ask for any of it. Running away became a default feeling. For a long time, I thought of it. Then the opportunity came. It was my birthday. I didn’t have to stay...

Premium Member Wish She Had Stayed With the Carpenter
Joanne’s first husband treated her like a queen. He was handy with a toolbox, and built her a fabulous salon. I was in high school when she asked for a Cinderella stairway. So the girls who were trying on gowns could walk down the stairs. Making a Cinderella entrance, showing off for the old ladies. The gowns she sold reeked...

Premium Member Stayed In Her Room More Often Now
You do not understand her mother often said Her father understood her but he was not home much Her mother called her names; not nice ones. She shrunk a little every time her mother spoke. Expecting to be put down, cringing when she saw her mother. She stayed in her room Decorated in snowflakes, There was a reverence about it It was a...
