  She Had Always Wanted To Fly

  

  By BeeFish, Dulles, VA

  She was a beautiful little girl. She would run a round the garden, trying to fly up, up and away with the colorful birds that surrounded her, her dirty blonde hair whipping behind her as she ran. She loved to color drawings she made of herself, flying, singing, and being the happy little girl she wa...

  Silence

  

  By BeeFish, Dulles, VA

  I could hear every breath, every inhale, every exhale. Everything was dead silent except people’s breathing and every so often a sob released from otherwise silent tears. No one knew what was going on. Teachers were panicked, students were scared, and I was taking deep breaths, trying to calm myse...

  My Magic

  

  By BeeFish, Dulles, VA

  I recently had a classmate of mine laugh at me for expressing my love of words, writing and literature. We were reading a passage from Emily Bronte’s “Wuthering Heights” and I had written on the side of the page, the simplest of words, “beautiful language”. My classmate laughed and said th...

  Fights

  

  By BeeFish, Dulles, VA

  Sometimes they fight. Blaring, roaring, angry, terrible fights. They say that they hate one another. “I never want to see you again!” She screams. And then he leaves, because he believes her, and because a part of him feels the same way. He goes out to his favorite bar, the one he always goes...

  Silver Linings Playbook

  

  By BeeFish, Dulles, VA

  If I'm being honest, and I am, there is only one word to describe David O. Russell's Oscar-nominated film, “Silver Linings Playbook” and that word is: Perfection. Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper's Academy Award-nominated performances as two slightly insane small-town people willing to h...

  The First Boy

  

  By BeeFish, Dulles, VA

  The first boy that ever loved me was a chubby little French boy with gorgeous blue-green eyes. The sad part of the story is that I didn’t love him back. There’s no real reason as to why, just that I was a funny little 3rd grader who still had higher expectations of the men in my life. Fortunatel...

  Flying Tips from "Travel Girl"

  

  By BeeFish, Dulles, VA

  I always resented my mother for dragging me around the world. I was born in the States, and 3 weeks later, my mom and I flew right back over to Guinea (in West Africa). I’ve been a world traveler ever since. I could recite flight safety instructions on cue, and I know all the little tricks to make...

  Struck by Lightning

  

  By BeeFish, Nairobi, Kenya

  We all know what it’s like to want to get out of high school, some of us more than others. Struck by Lightning confirms that everyone has problems, even cheerleaders and football players, and Chris Colfer’s (Glee) Carson Phillips has dirt on all of them. As a Kurt Hummel fan, I was a little appr...

  There Were Three of Them

  

  By BeeFish, Nairobi, Kenya

  There were three of them. Three names. One girl, and she loved all three of them. The first name was Caleb, and she loved him as her best friend. He was kind, caring, and loyal. He was Monday morning lattes and Tuesday afternoon runs. He was Saturday movie marathons and Sunday morning breakfast. Ca...

  Me and My Friends

  

  By BeeFish, Nairobi, Kenya

  Writing is something I do to escape, to leave the world I live in and enter another that I may or may not wish I were part of. I write about crazy old women who pig out on pizza, and then to work it off, go mall walking. I write about girls without the perfect parents, because I don’t know what th...

  The Color Red

  

  By BeeFish, Nairobi, Kenya

  The sky in the evening as the sun is setting, her dress as is falls over her creamy thighs. Pricks of fingers onto white sheets, the cherry cough syrup that tastes nothing like cherry. Berries on wreaths at Christmas time, and poppies pinned to chests. An apple a day keeps the doctor away, an...

  I Love You

  

  By BeeFish, Nairobi, Kenya

  It’s so hard, Being alone, Without you here, Holding me. It’s not easy, Knowing you, Then you’re away, Far from me. I wish you were here, Laughing and singing, In that loud voice, That I miss so much. You’re my best friend, My soul mate, Someone I love, The one I love. ...

  Madison

  

  By BeeFish, Nairobi, Kenya

  She was named after a city. Madison. Madison with a rattle, shaking as though her life depended on it. Madison, up on stage in a little pink tutu, dancing through thoroughly rehearsed choreography. Madison, learning to make waffles in the mornings. Madison, bringing her baby brother home from the ho...

  Different Kinds of Love

  

  By BeeFish, Nairobi, Kenya

  I love you, so what? What does that mean, to you, to me? I love you, whether you’re black, white, red, yellow or green, Or even something in between. I love you, so what? Why does it matter who you are or what you do? I love you whether you’re fat, thin, ugly or pretty, We don’t even ha...

  No one saved me, Why? I know the answer. You couldn’t. No one saved me, No one cared. No one loved me, No one could. No one saved me, Do you care? I don’t know the answer, No one did. No one saved me, Do you miss me? I don’t know, No one does. No one saved me, I’ll be ok. D...

  A Different Kind of Life

  

  By BeeFish, Nairobi, Kenya

  It’s not as amazing and glamorous as everyone thinks it is. Yes, we get to experience things others can only dream of, and we usually have more pull later in life. But, with all that comes more responsibility, more heartache, and a whole lot more horror. There are a bunch of us, all over the world...
