Collapsing

As far as I could see, Sally Samules was not okay. And it killed me inside. Once upon a time, Sally Samules had been my very best friend. We had been best friends since diaper days - our moms had met in one of those prego yoga classes to help the mother with her breathing as she squeezed a baby out of her vag, and when Sally and I finally arrived - within a month of each other - our parents had put us together and we've been inseperable ever since. Everything in my life was Sally and I, or We. I wasn't a single individual, and that was just fine with me. Sally was my other half, and without her I wouldn't know myself anymore. But lately . . . it seemed as though I didn't know Sally.
I don't even know what happened. One day, she's fine. Completely, 100% herself. Hyper, upbeat Sally. We were at a Patent Pending show and we got pulled onstage and sang into the open mic, and she looked so happy. The happiest I've ever seen her, actually. The train home wasn't any different either. We chatted excitedly the whole way home, smiles on our faces, going through the pictures on my camera to soak up as much of the night as possible. But first period the next day ... there was just ... something different. She just wasn't herself.
At first I just figured it was because she was tired from the concert, and then as the days progressed into a week I blamed it on her period, which always comes around the time I get mine, too. But week progressed into months. And as the months went on, Sally grew more and more distant from me, tearing a small but noticeable hole in me.
Within the course of 4 months, I watched her slowly disappear. She would often come into school, eyes bloodshot from lack of sleep, dark circles haunting her face. She was falling apart, and I refused to let her go down without me.
On Christmas, my family went over to her house as usual. It was a tradition that we had Christmas dinner with them. When Mrs. Samules answered the door, her face was grim and she told me Sally was upstairs in her room.
I knocked three times before entering, and when I swung the door wide open I dropped the Christmas gift I was holding on the floor. Sally had dyed her beautiful white-blonde hair red.
"What did you DO?" I asked, walking over to run my fingers through her ruined hair.
"I hennaed it. I needed a change." I stared at her with her bloodshot eyes and pale face.
"Who are you?" I asked quietly. She burst into tears, curling into a ball, shutting me out.
She cried like that for a while, huge sobs that rocked her whole body. I just sat on the edge of the bed and watched her cry, letting her get it all out. When the sobs turned to sniffles, she grabbed a tissue and blew her nose before looking up at me.
"Sometimes, people just fall apart. There's no explanation. We just do."

my preface

Once upon a time, there was innocence. There was Adam, and there was Eve, and before the apple, there was innocence. But there is always evil, lurking in the shadows even in the most pure and godliest places.
What most people don’t know about the story of Adam and Eve and their garden is the story of the apple seeds. When Eve first fell under the spell of the snake, she was so shocked at how delicious this forbidden fruit was that she dropped the apple, and a seed fell out of the apple and disappeared into the grass.
Immediately Eve was tainted by the spell in the forbidden fruit, and she ran to find Adam and plucked a ripe, red apple for him from the tree.
Once Adam bit into the apple, he too was startled by the taste that was dancing on his tongue that he dropped his apple, and another seed fell into the ground. God descended upon them then, and, well, you know the rest of the story.
But what you don’t know is the story about what happened over the next few years. The seeds grew into trees, side by side, and as the garden of Eden was forgotten by the children of Adam and Eve, the two trees twisted together, supporting each other as though twins, holding each other up, forever scarring the fate of the universe.

aghhhh

I have no clue how to start my story. I'm rewriting most of it so I can bring it away from the whole TWILIGHT scene and make it into something better (sorry stephenie meyers but it had to be said)
anyone have any ideas? i'm completely stuck. I wrote about 6 different beginining and they all suck =(

bumper cars

two words and BAM! just like that i'm transported back in time and i'm re-living a memory i didn't even know i had.

the time and place is the day we met in the cool summer drizzle at that carnival and me shyly watching as your bumper car was slammed into the corner of the floor where on the outside of the fence i was standing. your eyes widened as they locked on mine and i looked away, embarrased.
when the ride let out you whispered something into Brittney's ear and your eyes locked on mine again and being the coward that i was i looked away. I didn't hear you come up behind me but when your arms wrapped around my waist i leaned back into you, knowing it was you.
"Hello!" You yelled in my ear. I tilted my head to the side and caught your gorgeous green eyes.
"Hello!" I yelled back. You let go of my waist with your arms but hooked one thumb in my belt loop pulling me closer for a second before walking away.

I walk the line like johnny cash

So mommy brought home something called a moon flower .. it blooms on the full moon at night .. how awesome is that? o and also...
i'm soo obsessed with this song called Just Impolite by plushgun. The music to it kinda sucks but the lyrics = amazzinngg<3333

Friday night became so lonely,
When you came to make a break,
That seemed to take all day to make me angry 'cause ILike you,
maybe I'm just Like You
Holding on to something that we know we can not hold
or fold it seems it seems we just can't forget
Are you frightened, by perfection?
Is this who you are,
not who you want to be,
I walk the line like Johnny Cash
I made the bus in seconds flat
I called your line too many times
I'm not obsessed, just impolite.
Sunday came and went so quickly
now you say you want me back
you will hold on, despite my cons,
it seems we're meant to hate it!
Being so dependent.
But it seems we can believe that we're two peas in this pod
we call New York, gets so lonesome.
Are you frightened, by neglection?
Am I who you want to see yourself to be?
I walk the line like Johnny Cash
I made the bus in seconds flat
I called your line too many timesI'm not obsessed, just impolite
You're stuck on me, you don't know why
Can't leave me anytime you try
They say that everybody criesso don't think twice 'cause it's alright.
Stay here,
touching you, touching the light in your eyes
that keeps coming back
