Riddle. Tom Marvolo Riddle
People are like a box of crayons
Each one is unique
But when brought together the picture is complete
The green becomes the grass
The blue becomes the sky
The white is the clouds drifting peacefully by
The yellow becomes the sun shining so very bright
The black and gray combine to draw a starry night
Everyone is different
Each person is unique
Some are like a ray of sun while others are very bleak
Some are shy
And others cry
Some are sad
Others are always glad
But when they stand together
They can weather any weather
Behind every person lies a story
Do you wish to know mine
Of the past I left behind
My family
My friends
A very happy life
Replaced by conflict
Anger and strife
But my story has yet to end
And my life I have yet to mend
I wish to see a light
Glowing so very bright
A light to chase away the night
A light to give me strength and might
To conquer the sadness and fears
That has accumulated over the years
So this is the story that I hide
I hide it deep inside
Away from the world
That is very cruel and cold
Where all they do is judge you
sanity:)
The familiar sounds of the waves
Lapping against the shore
Soothes my heart and soul
Til my troubles are no more
Basking in the sun
As it washes time away
It’s here,always here
That my heart will stay
Diving into the ocean
And riding on the waves
Wrestling in the water
Playing the day away
This is where I renew
My body soul and mind
It’ll cause my heart to break
To leave this place behind
actually i am much smarter than most boys that i know and i am very short(5 feet maybe 5’1) and i am in the top five most intelligent people in my grade.
ICOT very nice poem with a great message. 🙂
I watch the sun as it dips into the sea
So many emotions swirling inside of me
I feel at peace. I feel happy.
The beauty of the ocean and the colorful hues of the sky
Make feel as if I am flying high
No worries, no pains
Not a care in the world
Nothing can bring me down
For a moment all my fears are cured
The ocean fills me with peace
All my worries cease
For a short while
I feel tranquil
blabla – you are never alone. Hashem is always by your side. You also have all of your friends from the CR and the Poetry Thread:)
Who ever said life was a piece of cake
Was clearly making a mistake
It is not a piece of apple pie,
A cookie, croissant or anything nigh
It is full of hardship, and full of pain
Full of people who care only of personal gain
Stand apart and follow your heart
Through all the conflict and all the strife
Try to live a happy and honest life
SaysMe – I am fine thanks for asking. Y”T was ok. I had some great cheesecake 🙂
I got to hang out with my sister and we had some good bonding time. Usually we can’t be in each other’s presence without he house exploding so it was nice that we managed to get along for the 3 day Y”T.
Now I am back to school with finals set to begin 🙁 – I had better start hitting the books
I want to wish everyone a chag sameach! Enjoy all the cheesecake:)
people who write large are more confident in themselves and people who write small are less confident in their work.
I dreamed upon a star
of a world that seems so far
of a place that everyone had a face
or that everything seemed to sine with a taste
I dreamed of a place where nothing went wrong
that innocence was a constant song
of a place that crimes were very limited
that people were always shy and timid
I dreamed of a place where lies don’t exist
that truth was truth on a spectacular list
where love was so strong
that every single person seemed to belong
the day was sunny and night was clear
that everyone held each other so close and so dear
A place so far
a place I dreamed
that one day I’ll see
A place I dreamed
upon a star
that just seems
like a place so far
I agree with yekke2 and would like to add Inkheart. it as an amazing fantasy book but very different then most fantasy books in that is is not about witches or dragons or stuff like that. it is a very clean book and i highly recommend it.
the 3rd and the 7th are my favorites.
Pawn
Rook
Knight
Bishop
Queen
King
All line up on a checkered board
Now,
replace the checkered board
with a real life situation.
What piece are you?
Are you the one that started it
but is too scared to fight your own battle?
The King.
Are you the spirited adventurer
that ends up being the first out?
The Queen.
Are you the very last resort
never fully appreciated?
The Bishop.
Are you the one that tries to solve things
in a completely different way?
The Knight.
Are you the one that plays by the rules
yet is never respected for it?
The Rook.
Or are you the most crucial
and most overlooked piece of all?
The Pawn.
Whatever piece,
you all have the same purpose.
To protect what matters to you.
What do you see, when you see me?
Do you see another person to take advantage of?
Do you see another heart to break?
DO you see another innocent person to destroy?
Do you see a target for your latest scheme?
Do you see a new tormentee?
Do you see a threat to your dictatorship?
Do you see someone to tear down?
or
Do you see someone that needs help?
Do you see a person that wants to be loved?
Do you see my desperate attempts at socializing?
Do you notice when I falter over my breathing?
Do you try to understand what I’m going through?
No.
You ignore my attempts to prove I;m worthy to myself
You help the world tear me down
You help drown my little self esteem
You laugh at me behind my back
you make me want to die.
TheMusicMan – HUH????
of course the mods don’t have a life – they spend all their time reading our posts and in mod 42’s case memorizing the Harry Potter books :):):)
Into my head
voices unknown
which way now
The wind is blowing in different directions
My heart divided into lots if sections
Should I stay or should I go
Tell me heart I want to know
now or never
hurt, love, pain, hope
with all this I need to cope
unknown feelings fill my empty soul
where should I go?
what is my goal?
As my heart sways
to G-d I pray
Please show me the way
42 – one of my favorite lines in the book.
hey what about me?!?!? Do I get a subtitle?
pretty please :):):)
I’m willing to give you one if you post what you want (and I happen to be the mod that catches it).
question – why would anyone think Aberforth is a molester? I read the books plenty of times and I never got that impression.
OOM – wouldn’t your patronus be a werewolf (the same as Tonks:))
SL – that was a Bogart. when a facing a Bogart it will turn into the thing you fear most in order to scare you.
A phoenix
I think it does. All my friends say I am just as loony as Luna Lovegood. (What do you think) :):):)
Coffee Addict – very funny(said in a sarcastic tone)
i know plenty of women who can look at a situation without their emotions getting in the way. It is not only a “guy trait” or whatever
Squankum –
It’s the name of a street in New Jersey which in English means “the place where evil spirits dwell”
I have two hands
I have two feet
I should be dancing to a happy beat
To be thankful for what is mine
For my eyes, my ears, my voice
For the fact that I have free choice
I spend all my time deep in despair
For my soul in need of repair
All I see are ugly gray clouds
The world seems to be covered by a dark shroud
All I see is darkness and despair
And no one in the world seems to care
my superpower would be the ability to make logical decisions without my emotions getting in the way and influencing my decision.
I picture Popa as more of a Dumbledore.
Someone should start a new thread “Who is your favorite Harry Potter Character”
OneOfMany – nu uh. Luna is way awesomer than Tonks!!!
bygirl93 – I actually look nothing like Luna Lovegood(I have brown hair, brown eyes…). Although on Purim I dressed up as Luna and wore a blonde wig and a pair of spectrespecs and my friend said I look just like Luna Lovegood.
MP – great mashal. very nice message. and amen – may we all have the strength to overcome our difficulties.
look into my soul
tell me what do you see
do you see the fake smiles?
the forced laughter
the happy facade
or do you see right through me
past the fake smiles and laughs
do you look so deep you see the scars?
the tears, each one shed
tell me, what does my soul look like?
You expect me to be perfect
A cut above the rest
Perfect scores on every test
On essays, papers and all the rest
But there are other things that matter
Like personality and moral character
I like being smart, intelligent and bright
Knowing that I am a good person does
Knowing that I help people where ever I go
Knowing that people like me for me
Because of my personality
Not because I am smart
But because I have a heart
SaysMe – thanks for the welcome
Two roads lay in front of me one life and the other death
Should I continue on or take my final breath
I feel as if I am alone adrift at sea
I cry out lama azavtani
Will I ever be happy?
Will I ever be free?
My heart was once glad and joyful as peaches
Is now breaking into millions of pieces
Why do you fight
Scream, shout and yell
And blame everything on each other as well
Take a good look around
If you continue only sadness will await
My words appear to carry as much weight as air.
I have only two options to choose life or death
Will I have the strength to continue on or take my final breath?
I suspect the Nargles are behind it 🙂
yaff80 – great quotes
As angry as the roaring sea
wondering if she really loves me
raging as the waterfalls
from deep within my anger calls
crying with tears like rain
to show you I am in pain
Swift like waves upon the sand
my heart aches, there’s only so much it can withstand
Lost like snowflakes upon the sea
wondering if anyone can see the real me
day is gone.
Night is here.
What once was love
And now is fear.
Shadows are here.
The dwell and roam.
Once was safe.
Now far from home.
What now is darkness,
Once was light.
When gone to bed,
Won’t sleep tonight.
Forever falling,
Not a fear.
The light is gone
And darkness is here.
Middle Path and No One Mourns the Wicked – thanks so much for your kind and caring words. I’m going through really tough time in school and at home and it feels good to know I can post here. There is no one for me to talk to and this is a really good outlet for me.

I hear the voices in my head
the constant buzz I’ve come to dread.
What is truth?
What is a lie?
To silence them I must comply.
I hear the rules.
I must obey.
There’s no escape.
here’s what they say:
Work hard, eat your dinner
Study hard, you’ll be a winner.
Don’t question, listen now
be the best, take your bow.
Be good.
Stay in line.
Don’t think too much,
and you’ll be fine.
Eat this.
Don’t eat that.
Count your calories.
Don’t get fat.
Don’t worry about the pain
to be a beauty you must not gain.
You’re not a loser.
You’re a winner.
To stay that way you must be thinner.
I hear the voices in my head.
They’ll go away if I am dead.
ICOT – you don’t need a parachute to jump from a plane.
you only need a parachute to do it twice:)

Life.
It’s a journey.
Journey.
It’s a made worthwhile by love
Love.
It began with a friendship.
Friendship.
It’s a strong bond.
Bond.
Time together that you enjoy.
Enjoy.
You’re supposed to enjoy life.
Life.
In short definition
can be defined as:
A journey filled with love and friendship,
made strong by bonds that let you enjoy
Life
