Cast shadows in the night,
By candle flame and ash;• Commented on by judge. -
As the sun bleeds into the ocean
Gold rays slipping in salt water• Commented on by judge. -
As the sun bleeds into the ocean,
It's stains my skin with tainted light,• Commented on by judge. -
Starry-eyed and sleep-deprived,
the voices sing to me• Commented on by judge. -
As the sun bleeds into the ocean
And the morning grass is beaded with dew• Commented on by judge. -
The ghosts of so many do haunt me
Though woven well with counterfeit smiles• Commented on by judge.

Good
Actually I want to comment on your choice number 4. All because someone does those things doesn't mean they are "witchs" Wiccans (like myself) do those things as their religion. They are often mistaken by being witches. I just wanted to make sure you know that and dont actually think there is witches. (laughs) Good contest I am thinking about entering! Of course probably the witch one to!!!

I would like to say something about choice number four. Yes, I know that a lot of Wiccans don't call themselves "witches", but I choose to call myself a witch because the word "witch" stems from the Anglo Saxon word "wicce", which means "wise one." I practice the religion of Wicca, and I practice some witchcraft. Sorry for any confusions.
Love, Ashlee -
In reply to your comment, care bear love, I changed the word to remove any confusions.
Thanks. Love, Ashlee
