  1. it was so high up in the air. i saw the world off that small balcony. i didn’t want to get off of it. i liked watching all of the people pass, and see how oblivious they were to me watching them. it was so serene just to watch and not have to worry about making them uncomfortable. i liked sitting up there, until they had to take me away.

  2. a place to sit so that way i can smoke or read or look at the plants grow. its relaxing and is easy for me to get away from the damn dogs. I also like to talk on the phone and vent when i sit outside with others. Its warm during the summer and cold during the winter, but the over hang helps it stay dry during the rain or snow. I love my balcony.

  4. A balcony provides a high place. A place of quiet and peace. A place to get away from it all. That’s a happy place. Alone. Away from your thoughts, all your thoughts. Go to a balcony and be happy. No jobs, no pregnancies, no stupid friends.

  5. I sit atop the balcony, legs dangling over the edge, cool night air chilling my skin. He’s all I think about as I get shakily to my feet, feel a burst of wind threaten to topple me over as it ruffles my hair and makes my skirt dance around my knees.

    I look out at the courtyard, fountain bubbling quietly, look down at my arms, lined in scars and burn marks.

    I’ve never been good enough.

    I close my eyes and lean forward, shuffling off the edge, spreading my arms for one second of flight.

    One second of freedom before I’m cast into eternal darkness.

  6. She looked at the park from above, wondering about the time of day and cursing the shadows that trailed from the rails of the balcony. A bird twittered somewhere and cars honked from the street below. But most of all, Juliet just wanted to be free.

  9. up above looking down. There you are. I see you and you see me. How did you get up there. Can I join you. Well I wonder how many people have passed by here today and thought that.

  12. I stand on the balcony and I think of him. The sky is turning to midnight blue as the wind picks up and makes my night gown flow in the breeze. I can’t think of anything but the cold and his face. Both glorious thoughts

  14. I am standing on the balcony
    I look up at the marshmallow clouds
    down at the sheet-cake ground
    and the world is my oyster
    because I know
    that in a few seconds
    I will be free

    I balance on the railing
    slowly tilting forward
    and fall

    Thirty stories of joy

  16. She fell from the balcony with such startling grace that I knew she’d seen God, knew she was going to meet Him.

  17. She looked down from the balcony, dizzyingly high.
    Took a breath.
    One, two.
    In, out.
    She breathed.
    She blinked.
    She tensed.
    She jumped.

    Then — nothing.

  18. He stood with soaking hair and a tell tale grin, on a balcony overlapped with five year old ivy. He wasn’t a particularly charming man, but he had the soul of someone not easily forgotten.

  20. this one time, I was chilling on the balcony. I had a delicious scotch on the rocks, and a cigar. I was texting my buddies on the phone, setting up a party, and enjoying the view. Eventually, they all came over, and we got drunk and crazy. We played rock band until we passed out.

  22. I sat on the balcony overlooking the lake. The moon shone on the water like a strobe light. A ship passed with all the lights on and it was beautiful. I leaned over and kissed him… It was perfect.

  23. The balcony is awesome. From here I can view the ocean, or the mountains. Or whatever scenic vista being offered. You can always smoke on the balcony. It is a good place for relaxation and reflection.

  24. I wish I had a balcony of my own. In my own place. I would have plants and flowers, maybe even plant a tomato plant or something. In the end it would be my balcony, where I could soak up somes rays, read a book, have a beer and just relax.

  27. I stood on the balcony and watched as a thunderstorm rolled in over the forest. Dusk colored the sky with reds and oranges, and the flashes of lightening against the dark above the trees was mesmerizing.

  28. As she looked down at me from her balcony her eyes filled with something other than love; contempt shone through. How dare I love her more than she loved me, how dare I care so much that I would take this risk? And then she smiled, but it was already too late.

  29. edge out,
    i balance tenatively,
    mountains and glaciers form before me,
    the world is scupted for this,
    some every lasting hand pointing out cracks and crevasses.
    the fear, overwhelming,
    there is no fence,
    no safety guard.
    compareable to the safe window’s view,
    only by imcomparability.
    but this way i’m not
    bound by glass
    just by air

  30. I sat upon the balcony in the steamy southern summer sunshine. Viewing gnarly trees seemingly growing out of nowhere. Memories.

  31. my mom had a balcony in her henrietta apartment and it was kind of grimy but i really liked that old apartment, even though it was in kind of a scummy area. it wasn’t really safe but i always liked playing my video games there or driving there on winter nights with my mp3 player.

  32. the balcony rested in the groggy summer heat. planters held humidity-soaked azaleas and had sweating summer beers resting on their edges. a cat walked precociously on the barrier gate. we sat and watched the showers roll in.

  33. up on the balcony she stared out at the majestic terror that was the Great War. Caught up in the muss and fuss of land, resources, and power she couldn’t imagine a more fitting end to an unwarranted and untimely ascension to a throne she never wanted.

  38. There’s a balcony at the top of the stairs. I go on it sometimes to get some fresh air and clear my thoughts. When I’m up there, I can see the entire cityscape, lit-up windows like glimmering stars in the sky. It’s like the entire city is there just for my viewing enjoyment.

    Claire
  39. on the balcony she sat watching the street below, with its boisterous revelers and thier drunken laughter. She moved into town to be a part of it all not to sit by and watch. But night after night she sits on her balcony and watches the world go by.

  40. In 15 years, I see myself sitting naked on a balcony with my significant other, enjoying the cool breeze on a warm spring day, snacking on toast with sun-dried tomatoes and basil.

    Yeah.
