We're not on the same page
We're not even in the same book
Charred and crinkled, your pages
Probably don't look much
Different from mine, but Mama
How can I tell? When you keep
Hiding the words from me?
What language am I speaking
That you don't hear me?

It's not that I'm trying to
Shut you out or
Ignore all your advice
(I know you have so much to give)
But I can't ignore this barrier
Between what used to be
An innocent child and her
Mother... how I miss my mother
Do you miss me at all?

I'm looking for your books
Littering the shelves after
Memories of time, age, and space
My tears black as ink, I recall
All we said and

Long OverdueFace softened by nighttime glow
Drew gasps through parted lips
Head crowned with hair in a flow
Tickled hesitant finger tips
Gentle laughter arose my own
Matching smiles said no longer alone

Eyes glistened with newborn charm
Never ever to be clouded with harm
Grasping fingers adorned tiny hands
Swallowed up in my palm
The bright future and the plans
All come to an odd calm

Cheeks filled with marshmallows
As bright as the sun's yellows
Little feet as fragile as glass
And as precious as gold
To skip through grass
And make memories to hold

A dream come true
A sister... long overdue

- Abirami Vina

HueNot too many times I need words, curses, or brutal honesty
But lately I've been thinking that's possibly the best policy
So father, when you hear that I'm busy and don't give a fuck
Chalk it up as horrible timing, bad luck, or my own self-disgust

See I'd typically discuss anything but now the trust is rusted
Broken down and tired around the neck of the only thing held up
Grimy reflection in the water had me thinking of letting it go
I associate that with you because you're the only bridge I burned slow

Thought little calls, visits, and speeches would lead to preaches
Between either you and my momma, just salty leaches
You can't re

Deadrose's Choice "Hey Tigerlily, can I talk to you?" asked Deadrose.
"Oh StarClan! Your having kits aren't you!!!" asked Tigerlily, unnecessarily loud.
"What?! No, are you crazy! I've only been a warrior for barely a moon! Why don't take a walk in the forest, then I'll tell you."
"Okay."
-----
"Alright, you swear your not going to tell anyone?" asked Deadrose.
"Of course."
"Um... well I've kind of been seeing Goldenflame again." Deadrose whispered.
"What?! I thought you were done with him! What happened to our promise?" asked Tigerlily angrily.
"Well that what I wanted to talk to you about. I know he's a MoonClan warrior, but I... I

Tigerkit and Deadkit "Look! Her eyes are open! Can we bring her outside now?" asked Tigerkit eagerly.
"Now, Tigerkit there's no reason to get that excited. You might scare her." scolded Icepool.
"Sorry," said the tiny amber tabby sheepishly. "But does this mean we can bring her outside?"
"Not yet, and stop pestering Lilypad, your nearly ripping her fur off jumping like that." replied the strong but slender warrior.
"It's alright, that's what sisters do." said Lilypad, while suckling her newest kits, Pantherkit and Frostkit.
"In fact, I guess Deadkit can go outside for a little while." said Robinstar, Deadkit's mother, "It would do her good to get

Icepool's apprentice flashback "I'm going to be the best warrior ever!" exclaimed Ravinkit from outside of the nursery.
"Fine then, I'll be the best leader!" shouted Tigerkit from her perch. While the two were arguing who would be the best, Goldenkit and Flamekit shared tongues and watch their brother and sister.
Suddenly, Icepool was sent back to to the time of her apprenticeship.
----------
"Icepaw, get down from there before you hurt yourself!" pleaded Robinpaw to her sister.
"Applepaw you too!" added Sweetpaw, Applepaw's littermate.
"Why should we come down," asked Applepaw "we're going to be leaders one day. Why should we have to listen to you?"

Lostsoul's Story 3  After walking for about half an hour, Petalkit finally asked, "Are you sure we're going the right way? Are we even in our territory anymore?"
  "Hold on, I think we're almost there, the scent is growing stronger." replied Stonekit.
  Eyes wide, Petalkit followed silently.
  Suddenly, after a long walk, they came upon a large boulder with a crevice in its stone wall. From inside, a sudden, loud breathing erupted. Obviously, it came from something big and powerful.
  With his voice nothing more than a whisper Stonekit said, "I'm going in." Nodding his head decidedly, he padded forward.

Alone in the darkness
In front of a mirror
With nothing but silence
Searching for love
Sometimes it is like a candle
You light it,
But it can be blown out
Sometimes it is like a death
When it eventually passes away
Crying
Sitting there alone
Searching for love
