So, I figured, if I found my old high school stuff, I should share it, since I wrote alot duing high school. Let me know what you guys think of it, or if you have any ideas on how I can improve some of these things. Thank you!
First one, was a short story with the theme of Thanksgiving, writing in my last year in high school.
Second one, tenth grade, the only writing I had published by the newspaper
Third one, last year in high school, our first project, make a poem that described yourself so that others could get to know you Teachers comment, You are very light in your affinity with darkness, guardian angle and night.
Fourth one, a Sufi for english class, after the teacher give me guidlines one what subejct matter I could right on.
Fifth one, a Comtemporary for english class. I wish I still had this picture on my computer to show you, taken at Famine, I caught a couple kissing, and everything else is burrly aroudn them, but they are still and it wasn't even photoshoped.
Sixth one, Eleventh grade english, to show our heritage in poem form.
Seventh one, a Ode for english, can you see what inspired me if you guess right I give you something shiny!

She bent over the toilet, letting the sickness out of her mouth. Her breath ragged and labored. How she hated this day, a day to give thanks, yet there was nothing she could be thankful for. Not after everything the past few months had brought.
Her boyfriend decided to show her how much he loved her, but little did she know it would have these consequences. Never did she think she would be pregnant with the father rejecting her and her swollen womb.
Rubbing her stomach in a loving way she slid down the wall. trying her best to keep the food in for the baby, if not her own sake. The child kicked, making the girl smile. Tears overflowed form her eyes. It had been a while since she was happy. In one moment she lost everything, her boyfriend, her friends, even her chance at Yale had been torn down.
There was a soft knock on the door, it opened silently, before closing in equal silence. The boy standing there smiled sadly at her. He knew her story, he had been the only one at school that didn't throw her away or give her dirty looks. He protected her. She gave a weak smile in turn. It was so hard to smile now. Yet here she was sitting on the bathroom floor smiling at her last friend on earth.
When he had told her she could spend the holidays with him and his folks, she didn't even think. She left her family in favor of people whom she had never met. It was just a way to leave her house, away from the disapproving stares and the guilt trips. She shook her head wincing in pain.
He was at her side instantly; one hand holding a wet paper towel wiping off her face, while the other hand rubbed her womb. The child seemed to calm at his touch. She rested her head against his shoulder. More then once she wished that it had been this man that had done this, but still she wouldn't have traded that she had for anything in the world.
"Is the child giving yo problems?" His voice was soft, kind.
She shook her head. "No, the turkey set me off, I think. Sorry."
He wrapped his arm around her, cradling her to him. "There is nothing to be sorry for." He wiped her treas, humming a lullaby in her ear. giving her time to collect herself, before braving the world once again.
Take deep breaths that is what she kept telling herself, yet another wave of nausea swept over her. She pushed her white knight away, to lie over the toilet. She could feel his hand holding back her hair and rubbing her back, trying to bring her some comfort.
When it had stopped, another wet towel was given to her. She stood, blood rushing to her head making her dizzy. He caught her before she fell.
"Easy." His eyes worried as he watched her.
She nodded mutely. The child renewed its stretching, her hand flew to her stomach, rubbing where the child kicked. He helped her walk out of the bathroom. Sitting on the couch she watched as he helped his family ready the table and make the food.
The little children sat near her begging for stories and to feel her stomach. She smiled and told them old legends that she knew, spinning the tales as well as she could. She loved lore, it was going to be her minor as she study for business at Yale.
Yet she wouldn't change anything for this moment in time. He was watching her with the young ones, she glanced up and smiled.
Maybe there was somethings to be thankful for. Her child was health and would be born soon, she had found a true friend and a family that didn't judge her. She rubbed her womb, and the child kicked genitally in agreement with her mother.

Hallows Eve
Hallows eve, hallows eve
come forth with deadly treats,
Black cats and witch's hats
On all hallows eve.
Ghostly frights, fiends take flight
On our most sacred night,
Demons wake, warriors fight
For this dreamer's world.
Children sleep, maidens' scream
As we roam about,
Monsters slain, witches melt
As slayers hunt us down.
The sun comes up,
The moon goes down,
We must go.
Until next year around you must wait
'Till all hallows eve
We wait....

The Light Darkness
Darkness in the deepest light
A pillar of strength
Never to be seen as a burning fire
The past never saw
The future blind in seeing
These wings closed close to my body
Yet the wings are being torn
The pain and the pleasure found within
The blind will see
The rose turn black
Yet here I live still and dead
Love is found yet push far from being
No hatred burns for rejections taken
The eyes shed no tears in the white darkness
In this place i call my own
My own world in this darkness
Where others only see light.

To Fly
Time pauses in the dark mush like you
Quiet breath are harsh to the ear, all is silent
You search for one fleck of light, one simmer of hope
Open your eyes! dareness is nothing, time has passed
Think not on the solid ground, the cold bars
Picture open skies, the sound of the ocean
Chains and ropes hold your body down
Yet your mind goes far beyond
Making your body limb, as your leave your body
Breakt eh chains and walls, you will be free
Like the eagle in the sky
The curtain opens, light floods in
Chasing your shadows of doubt away
YOu have seen all darken places fade into light
Like the night becomes day
There is no chains only freedom
For nothing can imprison your mind
It gives you hope and life
With this knowledge you are free to fly
To fly, with the eagle in the endless sky

A Kiss
A warmth
Spreading through one's body
Arms enclose
Stopping any escape
A hand
Tilts the head up
Toward another's lips
Soft and moist
Breath
Melds together
They touch each other's lips
In a first kiss
Eyes shining
Slowly close
Arms tighten
Pulling them closer
Time has stopped
The world stands still
All weariness leaves
In the mind of the lovers

Campbell's Strong and Proud
Come one, come all, come lad and lassie
Come see our history in the clan castle
Warriors, strong never will you see us plead
For our lives or homes in sweet battle
Stubborn as the boar
Our crest shows
It is within us to our very core
Never are our spirits in sadness or lows
Never Forget
Our saying strong
Our past, preasent, future not lost
It is our purest bond
This land so lush and green
In the Highlands our songs are heard
Here to this land we are never mean
Where in our kilts we wathch the birds
Powerful, stonrg, tearless and together
Now we are scattered like the wind
We are simply Campbells forever
We are merely Scottish kin

Taken a Fool
Never fall prey to the words of a fool
Words so sweet and sound like sweet honeydew
He will lead you from your lighted path
In which the fool would then be you
Stay fast behind your unemotional mask
Let a marred heart remind you of no pain
Have your love take flight on wings of a dove
Then no fool will ever take you
From your lion's heart and your gentle eyes.

I've been a fool so many times, it just seems
to come at the most random of moments.

Thank you. I know the feeling, Since the ode was to give advise I thought of something that I just wished someone would have told me sooner and I figured that I was used my friends that I was foolishly friends with so this was advise I gave to myself. They can't change you and they can't hurt you if all you offer them is a mask.
