You see how they act, who you want to be like and who you want to be around. You see how people react to your behaviors and your feelin.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/723844/ "That was the third most important day of our relationship. The second being when we met, the fourth that conversation just a couple short weeks back, and the first yet to come." http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/722702/ Rather ironic, considering I'm very much against people my age making these sort of decisions. But what's the world without a little hypocrisy now and again? :) http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/721568/ A rather rainbow-y arrangement of feelings in these little things. One just didn't seem to cover it. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/720859/ This is where it sort of gets sad, but long-distance relationships these days have lost all of their romance. But all the same, I dove right in. Love is love, right?We'd been talking on facebook for some time. This kid has the most amazing taste in music. And movies, for that matter. He likes The Sm.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/719403/ Just how I'm feeling right now. Singing this song while it plays so I don't overhear the conversation down the hall. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/717706/ I had bright, dark red hair. You had braces and really cool sunglasses. We were bound to happen from the start, really. And this is how it did. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/717415/ "This isn't a love story, it's a story about love." -500 Days of Summer http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/717406/ Oh the things you can accomplish when you move on with your life and let yourself be happy again. I missed it. :) Inspired by Feist's song "Mushaboom" a bit. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/717139/ She has cat's eyesAnd child's handsA warm faceSkin that just won't tanShe has wheat for hairCranberries for lipsThe lace hugs her tightTightest at her hipsFine and frailAnd strong and thinEvery so shyAnd eager to winHeart of goldSo heavy to bearJust needs someoneWith whom the weight she can share http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/716779/ I'm a widowerWe all are in a wayIf not, you soon will beIf not soon, then somedayLove diesIf lovers don'tAnd if they doThen love killed them http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/716501/ Someone stronger could have moved on fasterYou gave me a year and I took twoI sat after the sermon, the very front pewListening to my long-gone pastorBut that year is over nowAnd I look toward what's newThe sky opens to the brightest blueThe sun shining through the cloudsSomeone stronger would have .. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/716495/ What I know better than to say in person. Or at all. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/715084/ Just a silly little thing I came up with when I realized "LATFH" had 5 syllables. :) http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/714945/ Hopefully this is one of the last I write about the same thing I've been writing about for a long time, haha. But it's helped me get through a lot. Let me know what you think please! http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/714492/ This one's pretty straightforward. I tried writing once before to get out my anger and such with relationships, but the stories and such didn't work. Less is more with words sometimes. Yay haiku. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/714056/ This was inspired by a tall friend of mine who was kind of hated when he went to a music festival a couple summers back. Seriously people, you don't listen with your eyes. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/713948/ Another little gravestone piece. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/713941/ True beauty is far more than skin deep, my loves. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/713935/ So, one other kind of poem we did was basically what you'd put on a gravestone. So I made one for an old love. I'm a teenage girl. I sulk. Get over it. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/713932/ The original title was "A Good Portion of Kansas". Because, seriously... http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/713926/ I know I'm posting a lot of limericks here, but I love the sing-songy style of it. And this one is one of my favorite stories. :) http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/713921/ I've been doing a lot of work with Invisible Children the past few weeks, and let me tell you, it's beyond inspiring. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/713916/ We're doing a poetry project in school, and it inspired me to weave in some of the charity events I've been working with and the powerful feeling of human rights and capabilities that's given me. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/713913/ Just a little dose of reality that came to me. Let me know what you think. This is one of my first poems with an actual rhyme scheme- yay. :) http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/711824/ @font-face { font-family: "Courier New";}@font-face { font-family: "Wingdings";}@font-face { font-family: "ＭＳ ゴシック";}@font-face { font-family: "Verdana";}@font-face { font-family: "Cambria";}p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNor.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/710975/ The open airThe box of the netYour muscles jumpingYou know this is it.One goalOne mindOne teamOne ballThe score is tiedThe rain starts fallingYour lungs forcing the airYou can feel the sting.Ninety minutesEleven playersFIfteen ouncesOne hundred metersAnd you run. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/709750/ Oh I heard a sad song todayand I didn't feel nothin'No I didn't feel nothin' for youI watched your favorite movieand I didn't feel nothin' No I didn't feel nothin' at allnothin' for youYour friends are my friendsand I still don't feel nothin'No I don't feel nothin'You sir, can go straight to HellI d.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/707728/ The title says it. It's not even how I'm feeling anymore, though it did bring back a lot of memories. I hope someone can relate to it, and it brightens their day to know they're not alone. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/705578/ @font-face { font-family: "Courier New";}@font-face { font-family: "Wingdings";}@font-face { font-family: "ＭＳ ゴシック";}@font-face { font-family: "Verdana";}p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal { margin: 0in 0in 0.0.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/702641/ This is one for my friends who were always proud of who they were and never hid behind the ideas that society has for young people. There's no greater gift than the truth that we're all beautiful. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/702222/ No meter or reason or rhyme, these are the things I love about the world. :) http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/702212/ This is short, I know. But I think it's my favorite piece so far. Just saying. :) http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/702202/ This is the town I live in. I hope to add more to this song later on and may publish more updated versions, but I'm pretty proud of this as a start. Let me know what you think! :) http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/702200/ Here's one I wrote on a rainy day in a rainy mood, but don't be sad. It's all good now. :) As for the contest it's in- it was inspired by All Time Low's "Remembering Sunday" http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/702196/ I just sat down and this sort of came out. It's definitely not some of my more developed work, but it'd be a fun little Ukulele ditty. Let me know what you think! :) http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Anna-Stoots/702191/
