Default Friendly: kannon vs. Pent uP \\ 3.5-3.5 tie

OK, here's the deal: Pent uP is going to replace Lars by request. kannon advances via no-show. But since they both wrote to the same topic, we'll let this be open for votes even though it won't count toward either site records or the tournament. But it will count toward tournament voting, if you're so inclined.

Topic:


Touch the Sky


kannon

She held my hand and whispered that she never did enough
I listened up because I hadn't seen her in some months
I moved away at eighteen, our relationship kinda changed
Only saw her on holidays, or if family members got engaged
My grandmother... She blamed herself for us losing touch
Couldn't bring myself to tell her that I used to make excuses up
Her smile a mix of calm and worried, I held her and lied down
Knowing all that mattered is that we're both here right now
I whispered "I love you," and wrapped her cold hands up in mine
A tear fell from her eye, and her soul touched the sky...



Pent uP

Hand gliding

The brown dirt was vibrant under my gray and white Asic shoes.
Eyes widened to the amazing view that had my whole life racing through;
Half my hair sweat drenched and half of it waving in the wind.
Heart racing and in sync to Guerilla Radio playing while I think
“What better place than here? What better time than NOW?”
Dirt crumbled off the cliff as I head to finding out –
Blurry fern greens, dirt, leaves made the wind feel motionless
While a cascade of cool and rough hit me so intensely.
A flock of birds laugh as I slowly sink from my rush and high –
I’ll never be as grounded as the moment I no longer touch the sky.
