  1. I hate when I fall asleep in class and wake up all startled. It’s always embarassing because I freak out, sometimes making a noise, and then everyone looks. I’ve got a really bad cough right now that is probably startling my family as we speak. It’s enough to startle me everyone few seconds.

  3. She pulled back the curtains to see the man she never wanted to meet again. Before a gasp could even escape her lips he collided with her. She didn’t want any of it. But at the same time she couldn’t stop. Delicious ambiguity.

  4. I wasn’t expecting it.
    I jump and shot without thinking.
    Now you’re bleeding on the floor and my bandaids aren’t big enough.
    It was dark and late and I hadn’t known you were the one outside.
    Now you’ll never hear my apology.
    Never hear me say I love you.

  6. She couldn’t think, everything was to chaotic. Nothing made sense. And the dancing clown face wasn’t helping any. No, the to bright white face paint and the ugly pealing face paint around the lips. She was so shocked and tramatized she couldn’t even think strait. And she didn’t like the way that clown was looking at her.

  7. “I’m scared No, please don’t hurt me again.
    Are you leaving me?”

    He jumped up, I flinched.

    “No never, I promise.”

  8. it was the scariest thing i had ever seen. One minute he was fine and the next he completely out of control. It was one of those events that can either define your life or change your perspective on everything. He loaded the pistol and we pleaded with him to stop. It had already gone too far, but to a man with nothing left to lose, the end was inevitable. Brains.

  9. You startled me. I sat before the steering wheel and you approached the car from behind.

    It’s good that I like you so much.

  10. my heart is startled. it is a frightened confused bird beating its wings frantically. it is trapped and the wires of the cage are so solid and so unmovable. one day the bird will die. or the cage will.

  11. Taken aback, he jumped. Only to find that he had startled at a mere cord on the ground. Why was he so jumpy nowadays. Could it be the accident. Only time would tell whether or not he would ever come out of this with his sanity. Startled! A way of life.

  12. I peered closely into the dark room. Suddenly, a dark shape flew at my face. AAAHHHH! I screeched like a 5 year old girl. Fur slid along my arm as I realized the fearsome figure was only my skittish cat who had been locked inside the room all day

  13. startled
    so it goes
    rain pours and sun makes the mistake
    to appear without taking out the rainbow

  14. footprints dig deep
    as the deer runs
    from the noise
    between the trees
    and it gives no thought
    just
    runs
    away
    startled

  15. The dog jumped from the rolling car, startled, as the man who had loved him for so long abandoned him on the side of the road. Poor dog, I guess he gets to go home with me muttered the little girl, as she picked him up and carried him in her arms. The dog sighed and grinned.

  16. i felt startled when i fell off my bike and saw blood dripping on the pavement. My skin started to tremble, there was no other feeling. i was startled. also it reminds me of southpark hah! but i don’t like feeling startled. it’s not that cool.

  17. You jumped into my life and you startled me. The kiss you planted on my lips, at first gentle and appreciative then longing and wanting, startled me. You started me with your looks, your smell, your act, your speech. I fell in love with you, and that startled me.

  18. i was startled when i stumbled upon this site. i was also startled when i woke up in a stranger’s bed. well, she wasn’t a stranger, not after the night before. i hope that i can work things out with my girlfriend. is she my girlfriend? i’ll be startled if i end up not with one, or two, but nothing. neither the one i woke up to nor the one i had courted.

  19. i was so startled i dropped my fork in a pile of frogs that screamed in pleasure as they were led of to war by spanish pixies that chated gregorian calenders days and nights in a russian accent that was borrowed from a shop, it was the best day of my life. and then i saw a special dog from mars, it had nine legs that all looked like gophers.

  25. Again a noise brought him from his rest, and suddenly he found himself face to face with a snarling mouth. teeth dripped with saliva that smelled distinctly like spoiled meat, the breath pulsing against his face.

  26. A crazy dream of eeriness messed up with a weird octopus. How startlingly freaky. I’m groggy but I’ll eat my cereal and try to get it out of my head.

  32. I am startled. Startling things make me think of heart stopping the moment without oxygen lungs momentarily collapse, out of breath, suprise, followed by horror or joy, sweet happiness or desperate pain but the return of air, of conciousness, a return to a more natural state of being.

  33. I was startled once by a cat that came out of nowhere…I didn’t know what to do so i just kicked it. It flew through the air and when it landed it morphed into a man. As it got up, I noticed it was actually my father. I didn’t know what to say so I just stood there. Fact is, my father had been dead for well over a decade. Slowly, he started to walk towards me…

  34. i was startled when i saw the light flashing before my eyes. it was bright and white and incriminating. it blinded me as i started at it from where i lay. the room i was in was cold and white. i had a thin white sheet draped over me. i was confused as i blinked my eyes open. confused, i turned to see where i was, but found nothing to help me decide. i knew i was in a hospital of some sort, but i did not know where. where had i been? who was i? and why am i here? i couldn’t figure it out. soon a man in a white coat came in. he called me by some name i did not know, apparently, it was mine. i wasn’t sure, but i think he was my doctor. i answered his questions as they made sense to me. it took me a long time to understand his words, but slowly, i started to understand.

  36. I was startled when my professor put his hand upon my thigh, and I tried not to think to hard on the idea because what if it was an accident or what if he had meant to put his hand on the thigh of the girl next to me, or what if he doesn’t realize it’s a thigh- I’m a little bony after all – or what if he’s realized I’ve had an awful crush on him and is only following through –

    startled.

  37. I was startled when i realized that i was not the person that i pretended to be. Im a sham, ama fraud. I pretend to be social and verbal and smart, but i dont necessarily believe that Im that person. I would dearly like to be, but i have to continue to work on me. Im not the father i would like to be and Im

  40. i was so startled to see that poor girl being thrown out of her car and onto the street. There was absolutely no reason for the police officer to make any arrest on her. All she did was drive two miles over the speed limit and now she will have scars that will never leave her. Our society is truly corrupt.
