You're breaking my heart
it's not even yours to break.
Go to hell.
Your silence is worse than anything
I don't even know which way is up
Fuck you
How could I let you make me feel this way?
Give me my heart back.

Remarkable. That's the word he chose.
Remarkable? That's not a word used to describe me.
Is it?
Ordinary, now that's a word I'm used to.
Forgettable, and there's a word I deserve.
...But he said "Remarkable"
He doesn't even know me.
He's wrong.
How could he be right?
Is he right?
No. I know better.
He said "You're charming."
He's lying.
I'm awkward at best.
"Why can't you see how wonderful you are?"
Because I'm not?
Am I? Could i be?
God. How does this happen?
How do a few words and a handful of texts.
make my heart flutter. Everytime.
Am I that easily won?
I know the game. I play it well.
But he didn't say "Beautiful."
He didn't say "Gorgeous."
He said remarkable.
It's like he read my mind.
He's just a better player
He doesn't even matter.
He just wants me for a fling.
Remarkable?
God. He's absorbed my brain.
This is wrong.
I can't.
No.
I need to put my walls up.
Call the guards of my heart
back to their posts.
I'm calling it war
Game on.
Remarkable?
He's too charming to be true.
Still, I can't help it.
I'm dying for it to be real.
My heart can't belong to him.
But he can borrow it for a while
I'll play along, for now.
I'll play until remarkable
becomes boring...predictable.
I'll play along, for now,
until he's not confused.
It's the least I could do
Remarkable?
God. I hope he's right.
But he'll never know if he is.
Game on. Game over.
Goodbye.
....I wish.

So I can't promise that the layout will be good, I typed this on wordpad and pasted it here. I didn't spell check, so deal with that if you want. I'm not sure where this is headed, or if I'll even finish it, but here.:

Shifters
It could be said that I'm a victim here. I mean, every problem that is blowing up in my face right now is one I didn't even want to be a part of. But I guess when somebody threatens your life you end up going along with whatever they say. It's not that I love my life, but there's just something to be said for our instinct of self preservation.
Okay, I know. You have no idea what I'm even talking about. I'm sorry, sometimes I get ahead of myself. I'm working on it. Let me start from the beginning and hopefully this will all make sense. Okay? Okay.
My name is Denver, and for the first seventeen years in my life, I thought I was a normal human. I can't give you details about my life, because if this got into the wrong hands before I'm finished with it, I'm pretty sure that they would destroy everything even remotely connected to me. I'm going to be changing all of the names of people and places, but that's it. Even my name is changed. I grew up in a decent sized city, and I went to an average sized school. Really, my life was as boring as it got. I lived with my adoptive family, and I had a decent sized friend group. Life back then was simple, but it was good. God I miss those days.
Things changed the night of my eighteenth birthday. I had gone to bed early, feeling unexplainably exhausted the day before. When I woke again, the house was silent. I looked at my alarm clock, and it was blinking 2:13 in what was blaring red light to my sleepy eyes. Frustrated, I rolled onto my side and nestled back into my bed, pulling the blanket over my head like a bonnet and tried to fall back asleep. I thought I saw something move in the corner. Was someone in my room? Suddenly I was wide awake, and terrified to even breathe. The hairs on the back of my neck stood as though I'd been electrocuted. I could feel eyes pouring over my skin, staring unblinkingly at me. I covered my face in the blanket as stealthily as I could, waiting for something to happen. I swear, I thought my heart was beating so loud it would wake up the entire family. "You're just being paranoid, there's nobody in your room. " I scolded myself, "Take this blanket off of your stupid head and face your fears. You're way too old to be afraid of the dark. Grow up. Act eighteen."
Still, it took me until the count of ten to pull the blanket off of my head. I laid there, my head dangerously exposed to whatever mstery was lurking in the dark. When nothing attacked, I sat up. When I did, it felt like my bones exploded. Every inch of my body simultaneously spasmed, as if I was being jolted with thousands of bolts of electricity. It was easily the worst pain I have ever experienced, and I fell backwards onto my bed in shock. My body took on a mind of it's own, writhing and convulsing endlessly. Every movement was sheer agony, and I rememeber I tried to scream but I couldn't get any sound out, which scared me most of all. Surely I was going to die right then, and I couldn't even yell for help. I don't know how long I laid there spasming, but eventually I must have fallen asleep. Despite what I had experienced, I woke up feeling more rejuvinated than I ever had before. Convinced it was probably just an incredibly realistic dream I rose from my bed. I got dressed, and didn't think of the night's event again.
My mother was the first to wish me a happy birthday. Even though I was adopted, everyone insisted on noting our similarities. It drove me crazy because personally I didn't think we looked alike at all. She had dark brown hair and chocolate eyes, as opposed to my cinnamon red locks and grass green stare. Our noses were similarly shaped, both straight and narrow, but my lips were full and my mother's were a bit on the thin side. My figure was stick thin, as if I was still waiting for puberty to hit, but she had curves most women would kill for, and she knew it. I suppose we are alike in our mannerisms, but that's to be expected. The woman did raise me after all.
She was making breakfast in the kitchen, and she looked up happily as I shuffled in. "Good morning birthday girl!" She said enthusiastically as she pulled me back into a hug. I hugged her back in reply, and my eyes found the feast already on the table. My brother was already seated and digging into a stack of pancakes. He was older than me, but acted far more immature. "Shouldn't the birthday girl have gotten to eat first?" I asked teasingly, slapping him lightly on the back of his head. He rolled his eyes at me with a mouth full of food. "Just because you're the birthday girl doesn't make you a queen." He shot back, tiny pieces of pancakes flying out of his mouth. I raised my eyebrows in disgust at him, but took my place at the table without a retort.
"Dallas. Denver. Please don't start. I haven't even had my coffee yet." my dad grumbled, rubbing his temples. He had been handsome when he was younger. Dallas was often told he was an exact copy of my father, and in this case I had to agree. They both had shaggy, inky black hair, though now my father's was greying at the sides and his previously well toned muscles were gaining a softer edge. He was a stern looking man, but his eyes sparkled when you got him talking. Dad was the kind of guy people respected automatically. He had never really told us what he used to do for a living, but he had made enough money doing it that he and my mom retired at thirty, and we still lived pretty lavishly. When Dallas and I were younger, we used to pester him with questions, but he would only clam up and his eyes go dark. Ususally he just assigned us some chore to distract us from our questions. All he would tell us about his career is that he was some sort of bounty hunter, and we could never tell anyone. I guess, yeah, it was suspicious but her was our father. How were we supposed to know?
My mom brought the rest of the breakfast to the table, and I helped her before sitting down myself. "It smells so good mom, you didn't have to do this for me." I told her, gushing about the enormous amount of food she had prepared. Dallas chipped in, "The rest of us have to eat too, idiot." I glared at him, but didn't satisfy him with a retort. Mom smiled at me, "It's your eighteenth birthday Denver, it's more special than you know" I raised an eyebrow at her, "Oh...kay?"I looked at Dallas, but he just shrugged and kept eating. I took a bite of pancake and asked, "So when is my surprise party this year?" I leaned back in my chair smugly as my father laughed. "The surprise this year, Denver, is that you don't get a party." he answered with a wink. I laughed back and looked at him, "You say that every year Dad." He took another bite of his breakfast, "This year I mean it." We shared another chuckle, but suddenly his whole demeanor changed.
"Denver, Look me straight in the eyes and don't blink." he commanded sternly. Surprised by his sudden mood swing, I stammered."W-what? Why?" I turned to my mother and Dallas, but noth of them looked equally as startled as I was. My father spoke again, "Now Denver." I gave him a weird look, but did as I was told. I stared at him, holding my eyes open as far as I could. He stared right back, studying my face as if it was the first time he had ever seen it. Abruptly, he broke the stare and left the dining room. My mother watched him go, a worried expression on her face. "Don't worry about the dishes you two, I'll do them today. Just finish eating and keep yourselves busy for a bit." She told us before following my father out of the kitchen.
Neither my brother or I were finished eating so we stayed, eating in silence. Finally, Dallas pushed his plate forward and leaned back in his chair, "Well that was fucking weird."he stated, breaking the quiet. I nodded, and replied, "I know, it's like he'd never seen my face before and it made him mad. Like, what was that about?" My brother shrugged nonchalantly. "Well, maybe he doesn't like your contacts." I looked at him, cocking my head to the side in confusion. "What? Why would he be mad about my contacts? He bought them." Dallas rolled his eyes at me again, "No, Dad bought you regular contacts, not colored ones. I remember the fit you threw when he said you weren't allowed to change anything about yourself until you moved out. Don't you remember that?" He asked. I did remember, but I had no idea why that was relevant at the moment, it had occured a few years prior. "What does that have to do with anything Dallas?" I asked, and he looked at me like I was the stupidest person on the planet. "You're wearing colored contacts right now, idiot. Also, blue is a terrible color for you." He got up, obviously annoyed with me, and left the kitchen as well.
I got up too and rushed to the bathroom to study my eyes. I wasn't wearing colored contacts, I didn't even own any. Once I got to the bathroom I locekd the door so no one would barge in. It took me a while to actually look in the mirror because I was afraid Dallas was right and I had blue eyes now somehow. I took a deep breath in and opened my eyes. I studied them hard, but there was no sign of blue anywhere. They were my same green eyes, just like every other time I had ever looked into the mirror. I laughed as I realized how stupid I must have looked. Of course my family was pranking me, it was a birthday tradition. I didn't really understand the point of the joke, but I guess it was funny that they tricked me into thinking my eyes changed color. Now the I knew there was nothing weird going on, I showered and got ready for the day, making sure to put in some extra effort to look good since nobody would tell me when the party was. They could be stubborn when they wanted to be.

I should update update my house. It's been forever. I Think the time I wrote all the stuff on there was in 8th grade. Maybe freshman year. Almost all of the wiki's listed are dead, and I have made different friends on elftown, [The Black Cat in Your Path], and the ones that are listed either we don't talk anymore, or never get on anymore :-(

but i read the bio part and whatnot, and that hasn't changed. How sad is that? I havn't changed since 8th grade. I just graduated...
Screw it. my laptop is screwing with my typing. The cursor keeps moving to random places in the already typed text. Anyone know how to fix it/

wow richard...

you're freaking psychic. that's a little creepy....How did you know we'd like each other?...

I'm missing you guys terribly already!!!! I can't believe we won't see you for another two years...that's freaking CRAZY!!!!

Trying to convince Dan to move in with Matt up here when he turns 18. It would rock. haha. It's a good thing he's got unlimited texting...cuz I'll probably harrass him for like, ever through it.

It was surpisingly even amazing to see Jon again, and really hard to see him go. But he'll be back in three and a half months supposedly, and for good. *I'm a bit nervous about that...*

I've read the second and half of the third book today.

This trip has revamped my energy for doing the books. You have to write every chance you get....

And you have to call me every week

you are good looking, youre intellegent, you're smarter than half the human population *don't you dare let that go to your head*
Jadee. says:

Jadee. says:
why do you care about anyone else?
Jadee. says:
that's how i figure things. why bother caring?
Jadee. says:
and when you don't care is when it grabs peoples attention and makes you matter to them
Why so serious? says:
Congratulations, Jade.
Why so serious? says:
You just beat me in an argument.
Jadee. says:

okay. I'm officially a nerd.

And it's awesome. hehe...Yup. that's right..for the first time ever...I, [shadowfire09] has played dungeons and dragons...

and i kicked butt i'd like to say!

hehe...but that was more just lucky dice roleing...

hehe...i was pissing thomas (the dungeon master) off..cuz he couldn't ever get hits on me...cuz he'd always role one less than would let him. *sniggers*....

        though he decided it'd be funny to make me get grouped...seeing as i was the only girl there.

so in this night...kkk W.O.W has been made into a really dirty masturbation joke (thanks bryan) if i was a man, i'd have a 20 inch long penis (fun dice roleing game...with a 20 sided dice. *you ask the die a numer question such as "how long till i die...(which by the way...i roled a 7..and we were going by days...CREEPY!!!!) because jeremy is a pervert....and my boyfriend was kidnapped by the night by bryan and thomas...and i'm not allowed to have contact with him till noon tommorrow.

GAH!!!...oh well...that's quite okay..seeing as i work from freaking 6 in the morning till 2:30 in the afternoon *dies slow and horrible death*

that is, if i kept my job...

I lost my temper at work...everything was breaking down, there were double patients, and we were over an hour behind......

     I was downstairs, so it had nothing to do to me...
but my "supervisor" for the night, who honestly has it out for me..., decided that she would write me up, for negligent behavior, smart-mouthing, and purposly damaging the machinery...

which i wasn't even near. Now, the kicker is...she didn't tell me. Which is way way against the rules..if you get written up by a supervisor, you're supposed to be notified immediatly....

I found out because she left the slip laying on the desk...

asked her about it...she shrugged, and i asked her why she left a slip like that out for everyone to see....*admittedly, i could have been nicer...but under the circumstances...i did pretty well*

her exact words were "well, if it were an important employee and not someone with the intellegence of the dishes she has to wash....i would have. But i didn't even figure you'd know what this said..." as bitchy as she could...

so...

     I hit her.....
          okay. it was more of a bitch slap....but it felt so good. left a pretty good welt on her face too.

stupid stupid bitch...

I lost my temper...and that's why evan (my boyfriend ftwdk *for those who don't know...ftwdk) invited me to play dungeons and dragons...so i could "make fun of him being nerdy..." (which i would never honestly do...but hanging out with him, thomas, jer, and b-ry...there's gonna be slams...(oh and i'm not allowed to call bryan b-ry....hehehe but seeing as i'm lazy and not one of them is on elftown...i'm gonna do it...just to spite them...hehehe) so its' a major anger reliever...

though not one of them expected that i'd actually like the game...and be quick to understand it. it clicked...

and it was fun!!! WHEEEEE

Don't you just love clicking on someone's house, and the first thing you see is either "Fuck off..." or someone flipping off the camera?...It just makes my day to see that human intellegence has been reduced to nothing more than that. oh, but it's simply brilliant when it's both...I mean, the combination of the middle finger and a swear word...they should win the freaking nobel prize for the genious-ness

I mean, don't get me wrong..i swear casually...*sorry to all offended by that* But when you're on the internet...making a description....for people all over the freaking world to see...I should think you'd have a little more to say than "Fuck off bitches..." or whatever...

Effigy

I step forward
A faltering chance
Rehearsing to myself,
What I can say.

Short clauses
Stuttering voice
Uneasy stomach
Heartbeat furious

You’re in front of me
I stare in disbelief
I become inarticulate
Can you feel my belligerence?

Furtive effigy
Ineffectual glances
Inscrutable heart
Tacit anger

My statements are festooned in harsh honesty.
Oh, how I would love to see you founder.
This… is… a conspiracy.
You falter to stand upright.

Shattered glass
Bloodied knuckles
Tempestuous coincidence
Dubious encounter

I speak calmly, at first.
Relaying my message,
Then, just as abrupt as a wall,
I shattered the glass of your pride.

I shouted…

YOU FUCKING LIED!
My rapt face shined clear.
YOU are a manipulative, ludicrous,
Failure at life,

You think I wouldn’t care?
YOU FUCKING THINK…
That’s your problem
Incompetent bastard

I looked at him…
Straight in the face
I stood upright
Finally seeming taller

You, disgust me
I stare in tacit
My incursion harsh
I wish I never would have met you

Silence

He opens his mouth as if to speak
Then realizes the intensity of my voice
I pause a moment
As if to take back everything, cry, and apologize.

I look up, after staring blankly into the dirt,
You are an effigy.
Again, I pause to recollect myself.
I look up again.

In the same manner, I begin to speak
First calmly, I never want to see you again
My voice gradually changes in volume
Get… Out… Of… my… FUCKING SIGHT!

I walk away
Calmly I start my stride
Knowing I will never see his face again
Never letting him manipulate me.

No. i didn' t write it. i was house zapping and i came across it...but it rocks.
