  1. the room i am in is still. except the air i breathe… and the sounds i make. if you really think about it….. nothing is really ever silet or still. the trees…. they are always moving. you… you are always moving. even in your sleep you are moving. no matter how much you try or think about it…. nothing is still…. nothing

  2. I’m not really sure what to think about. I guess the mountains. It’s where I’m from and I am really missing it right now. Then I think about Evan. When I’m with him, there is no stress, everything is just still. Everything is calm. Everything is better. I wish that my life were constantly like that, but every weekend I have to leave him and everything comes rushing back.
    If I could make things be still for forever, if I could just live in the mountains away from here, with Evan. Life would be still. Life would be calm. Life would be good.

  3. She stood still, waiting for the train to come by. Faster and faster it came, her eyes seeing a blur. Her hair began to fly messily. Time was flying by her, but she didn’t know.

  4. The world around me stays still, as my mind spins, races, and bounces off the wall. I try to steady myself, take a deep breath in, exhale slowly. I hear a high-pitched, never ending scream, open my eyes, and realize that the scream, well, it’s me.

  5. There was no movement now. None at all. Her once trembling hand lay sill in a pool of blood soaking into the floorboards.

  6. The water stood still over the graveyard of bodies. Lia walked along the edge of the water, silently counting. Twenty five male, fifteen female, and twenty children, six of which were just babies. They were all in traveling garments. The rumors about the forest claiming its pray had to be true and this is where the bodies were laid to rest. These were only the fresh bodies. There could be countless victims who had sunk out of view.

  7. lots of things at=re still. the air can be still but then can stir up very fsat and turn into a storm. Storms are cold and no fun :(

  8. Breathe and let the air become still. It’s all right. I’m still here. I will not move from this spot. I will not leave like everybody. Do not worry about me. Just don’t forget to breathe. This is what we do. Don’t forget that. Just come back and remember why we’re here today.

  9. He sat in stillness, watching the raindrops roll down the window, rooting for one to beat the other to the bottom. Ali refocused his glance to the girl crossing the street. If I sit still enough, he thought, I might just not be noticed by her.

  10. The single most lonely thing. This is because there is no interaction. There is not feeling or progression and as a human this is frightening. We need movement and we need change.

  11. Blood runs and I stare into your eyes. I only see the pain. I bet in mine you see a still calm. Yeah, such a worthless and uncaring expression within my eyes. You must hate me for this. It must make me inhuman. I’m sorry for what I’ve done.

  12. I stand still in this dark corner. I can’t help my fidgety movements. My fingers shake and my eyes dart from side to side. Why am I afraid? What do I got to lose? It’s no big deal, yet I’m making it one. Maybe I need to learn to move on.

  13. they say still waters run deep
    so that must mean i have more to myself than my solum appareance
    more of a bite than i’d like
    but i can’t unsay those words
    i can only apologize and hope for the best
    tomorrow will be the day of apologies
    the day i remember to forgive myself
    and pray for others to forgive me

  14. My name is Anna. I am still because I am dead. I am living through others, but my spirit remains unalive.

  15. I still like him even though he never thinks of me, but sometimes in the still of nature I feel at peace about it. I know. It’s cliche, but you told me to write about this one word. I just studied daoism and it’s on my mi

  17. The night was still and the forest was lonely. The breeze rippled through the trees as the moon made it’s reflection on the lake below. You could see crows sitting in the trees. Strange since it was so frigid out. It was beautifully eerie.

  18. I can still see her face and hear her laughter. I long to see her, to touch her, to embrace her. I want to smell her hair and feel her skin. I dream of living in a world free of Cancer.

  19. a swan on a lake

  20. still on the docks.
    close, together huddled in the midnight
    trying to keep each other warm
    while the wind runs tracks across our faces
    and the water slaps our frozen toes

  21. I was still. The trees, the people, and the animals were all around me. Yet I was still. Observing.

  22. Fourteen years and still…. I think of her everyday. I miss her everyday. I hurt everyday. I’m angry everyday. I love her everyday. I anticipate seeing her in Heaven someday.

  23. Not moving. holding in your breath until it’s time to let it out. Holding it in when some one walks by, holding it in while taking a picture. or still life. painting a model. quiet, beautiful. serene.

  25. I still love him like I’m 15-years-old again. Only more. The same and different and young and old. Old and new. Twenty years apart makes us better now. Still.

  26. It was exactly 3:30 a.m. Bundled up in his parka and hat, he stepped outside. The night sky was a deep orange color, though a few stars managed to peek through the haze. The air was thick and cold. He could hear a rustle in the hedge; maybe it was a squirrel. He hoped they were nocturnal. Otherwise everything was still.

  27. Be still and know that i am God…be still…cease striving…be still…stop worrying…be still….and breathe in the glory of God…..

  28. I’m still waiting. For you to be the one I’m waiting for. So I sit here and wait for you. Still. Sitting still. Not moving. Still waiting. It’s ok. That’s how it’s always been, so I will continue to sit here and wait for you because I know you’re coming some day. :

  29. Winter air surrounds us’ caressing, icy, kisses. Falling, fluttering, flakes land silently on our shoulders in the light of a full moon. There is peace here.

  30. I sit still all the time and sometimes I think that All i do is sit still so I start thinking maybe i should move, maybe I should do something with my life. but there i sit, still. One day i will move and it’ll be awesome but for now I keep sitting still, i don’t know why, i just do, it’s not fun, just complacent.

  31. still means to not move. to just sit and think. not to do anything, but to exist. by yourself, with no one, nothing but your own consciousness. to be alone. not to move. not to do anything. just think. pass time. usually at night, like this. contemplate

  32. I have to sit still in class. It’s very difficult for me. No, I don’t have ADD or anything, but I do enjoy to move and be active. I am a character. I am crazy and a fun-lover. To keep still would drive me crazy. Hopefully, it won’t happen anytime soon.

    by Nick on 10.27.2011
  33. I was told to sit still one day, and could not figure out why? As human beings aren’t we supposed to explore the world around us, figure it out. I do not want to be kept still. I want to LIVE. Living can’t be done in just one place.

  34. Still staring at the blinking cursor in the blank box of the profile she had hastily began in frustration, Jo was baffled as to how to describe herself in any kind of way that might sound appealing to some man reading her profile.

  35. All was still
    When her chest fell
    For the last time.
    All was still.

  36. The turmoil inside her was so different to the stillness of the water that surrounded her. Here on a boat, floating on the lake of her childhood, she thought she would be able to find the peace that had so forsaken her. A peace so long forgotten.

  37. stay still, do this, do that, finish this, respond to this….we are all told what to do so often, we forget who we are as people…when so many other people dictate our lives, we forget what it is to live it ourselves.

  38. Still.
    I wait for you
    still.

    What do I do?
    Why do I wait?

    Am I lonely?
    Are you?

    I don’t know if this still
    means forever.

    But it can’t, not for me.
    I cannot
    be
    still.

    I will not
    be
    still.

    Still.
    I wait.

  40. This word is an adjective. It means to not move. Stillness is another form of the word. When something is still it is calm. Still can be used to describe a mountain lake undisturbed by anything.
