I Keep Forgetting to Remember

Lately, I've been forgetting. 

The number of things my mind trails behind my head...

I keep forgetting to put my shoes on in the morning

Sometimes it's just one shoe

What does this mean?

Will I forget everything about myself?

Will I forget you?

But as I remember questions, something else leaves my brain

Taking things in takes other things out

It's almost like a light bulb as it cools down

One thing stays in my mind always

A question

A single question

Will tonight be the last time I'll see the light?

I always start to cry... And you're always there for me

You try to calm me down

You ask me questions, and I try to remember them...

And I try

And I try

And I try

And something clicks

My mind remembers

Just one 

"When will we own ourselves completely?"

That question gave me strength

It became louder and stronger in my mind, and I started to remember

Remember

...Remember...

.......Remeber

Remember what?

I keep forgetting to remember

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer 's Stone

The Hero's Journey

Ordinary World: Harry Potter's ordinary world is the world he's grown up in. The house he grew up in with his Aunt Petunia , Uncle Vernon, and cousin Dudley. 

Call to Adventure: The letters. One day, Harry is having tea with his family, when suddenly, the house erupts with letters; all addressed to Harry Potter. They come form every where. Including the chimney. Another call to adventure is when Hagrid show up at the cottage on the island and tells Harry directly that he is a wizard, and that he is enrolled at Hogwarts. Another call to adventure happens when he finds out about the Sorcerer's stone. 

Refusal: Although it's short, Harry doesn't believe Hagrid for a minute, and almost doesn't go. But he does in the end.

Mentor: I think Harry has 2 mentors. Starting with Hagrid because he helps Harry through the threshold. But, later, Harry meets Dumbledore, and Dumbledore helps Harry through trials. 

Threshold: Harry crosses the threshold when he crosses the barrier in King's Cross to get to the Hogwarts. Symbolic, no?

Test, Trials, Enemies: One of the first trials and enemies Harry meets is Draco Malfoy. Malfoy really makes Harry's life a living hell from the very beginning. Is there a reason? No, not really. Malfoy is just a jerk. Harry meets the Potions Master: Severus Snape. Snape makes it very apparent that he doesn't like Harry, although, the reason isn't made clear. He makes Harry's life a little harder as well. 

Voldemort. Voldy has been a threat to Harry since he was born. In fact, he is the reason Harry doesn't  have a mom or a dad. He murdered Harry's parents and tried to kill Harry when Harry was just 1 year-old. He is also the cause of the whole big disaster that happens as Harry starts and finishes his first year at Hogwarts.

Approach: Harry, Ron, and Hermione find the location of the Sorcerer's stone and find the entrance blocked by a very big 3 headed dog. But what else is under that dog?

Ordeal: After getting through all of the chambers, Harry finally meets with the person who has been trying to kill him all year. He's surprised to see not Snape, but Professor Quirrell, and he's not who he seems to be, and he's not alone. He shares his body with Lord Voldemort himself. 

Reward: Harry is rewarded by getting the sorcerer's stone, and he kills Quirrell and Lord Voldy evaporates into nothing.

Return With Elixir: Harry's bond with his friends and his mentor are strengthened because of trials he's gone though. 

The End!

My Life in a Short Story

Dad's been different lately. 

Really different.

But in a really good way.

I guess... He's just happier. 

I know why... It's just hard for me think that it's actually happening. 

So soon.

But is 3 years really that soon?

Some people might think it is.

You see, three years ago, my mom died.

She had cancer, and she fought hard.

She lived a whole year long than the doctors told her she would.

It doesn't feel like it was that long ago for me. 

I guess it wasn't.

That's a hard thing for anyone to go though.

The thing about Dad is... He's started to date again.

In fact, he has a girlfriend.

He has for months now.

All of us think it's weird.

Really weird.

She's nice. I guess. 

But she's not my mom. 

She won't ever be my mom.

I miss my mom.

But Dad used to mope about the house. 

He'd just shut himself in his room, and you could just tell he was miserable. 

Then he started dating.

He's happy again.

That should make me happy right?

....Right?

Call Her Change

The butterfly droops.

                  Call her war.

Time's head bends.

                               Call her promise.

Revolution dives.

               Call her the solution.

The world suffers.

Those speaking fondly dive into time.
They remember the world for the promises it presented.

    They're waiting for time to bend back.

Call her change.

I got this text form the book Speak. Pages 6-7. I took random words that stood out to me, and I wrote them all down on my paper. I didn't use all of them, I just used the best ones. But this is what came out. The words that I put in there are change and waiting. I don't think I need to put all of the original words.... That would take too long.

Words

These are some words and phrases that I adore. I am also in love with this website.

Thanks for looking!

Waiting

I look out the window, then look down at my wrist. 

He should be back by now. He promised he would be back soon.

 I met the man of my dreams. Just a short time ago. He walked into my life, and I accepted him. I never thought I would find the right guy; And yet, this simple man comes waltzing into my life... Perfect.

A tall, skinny man, with a personality to match that of my own. 

We were married just three months after I met him. 

Tonight was supposed to be a night we had to ourselves. We were making dinner, and he had forgotten an ingredient at the store. 

What's taking so long? It only takes ten minutes to get there and back. It's been over an hour. . .

Even as this thought entered my head, I could feel something was wrong. My stomach was churning as the lightning flashed and the rain fell.

I waited for two more hours. Then, I heard the knock on the door, it made me jump. . . .

I sat in the den, looking at the piano as I sipped my hot chocolate. It was his favorite thing to do. Sit at the piano and play me my songs and sing to me. I waited for the keys to start playing themselves. It has been 2 years. Every night, I sat and I waited for the piano to start. Praying he would walk through the door and start playing the piano for me.

My head started to bob, and my eyes closed and drifted. 

In the distance, I could hear something. my favorite song. I started to hum, my eyes opened slowly.

There he was. Sitting at the piano playing and singing. 

I stood up and walked over to him. Hardly daring to blink.

If I blink, he'll be gone forever.

He turned his head, looking right into my eyes. And he smiled.

"You've been waiting all this time. I'm home. You don't have to wait any more."

Warm tears streamed down my face. 

Every night after the first, he came and played for me. One song, then he ascended again. Disappearing right before my eyes. For months.

One night, after he sang to me, and turned around on the piano bench. He looked me in the eyes. 

"No more. It is time for you to move on. If you keep waiting, no one will come."

He stared for a few minutes. I looked right back at him. Tears welling up in my eyes. I knew it was time. I couldn't wait for him every night. I needed to find a new love, a new life.

I nodded my head, and blinked my eyes. He was gone. He told me with that last look that I could wait. Wait for the next  one to come along. And he would come.

 I waited.
