  1. Stood. Stood is the past tense of “stand” and a word that is commonly used especially in fiction-writing. I don’t like this word because it sounds kinda horrible. But that’s just me.

  9. I stood alone at the edge. The earth fell away before me and revealed air, the sheer cliff face, and far below, the rushing water at the bottom of the canyon. “Every time,” I remarked to Jason as he carefully walked up behind me. “Every time I stand at the edge, I wonder if this time, I’ll be able to fly.”

  20. He stood in place, and finally understood what came of faith, and the absence of faith, and everything in his life that he had ever believed or wanted to believe came shining back to him in the bright gleam off the side of the polished chrome of the guillotine’s blade.

  21. Stood up for his life. If that ever made any sense. He kept fighting, because life’s a fight.
    “Life is hard,” he’d always say.

    And he’ll punch me in the face.

  24. stand, standing…he was standing on a sidewalk filled with grief. I’m not sure why the sidewalk was grieving, but it did make it very slick. The man tried to stand as hard as he could on this slick surface but slipped and fell on his butt.

  28. Everything froze. Even the breeze halted it’s slow movement through the hallway as he uttered those two words with such finallity. The months had been hard but she never thought it could come to this. Tears wished to well in her eyes but even they obeyed the unheard command for this moment to last forever. With two simple words everything in her world had stopped. I’m leaving; it’s all he had to do to stop all life for just one moment that dragged on. This one moment stood still in time. The rest came quickly as time sped back up to catch up except she still couldn’t move. Forzen; destined to watch him turn his back and walk out. The moment burned into her memory; the moment time stood still just for her.

  32. I stood on the deck, wondering when he was going to come. It was nerve-wracking, terrifying, the anticipation and the excitement, the not knowing and the wanting it to happen and yet not wanting. Sometimes it all seemed too much, just silliness, and I’d wander inside to make a cup of tea of see what was on the television, but inevitably I’d end up back on the deck, waiting.

  33. I stood wondering what i should write here, weather or not a comedy should take place or a deep horryfying triller in which the murder turns out to be a chicken.

  34. He stood her up after her best friend showed up at his front door. She was unsuspecting. She didn’t know her boyfriend and her best friend were lying to her face, together behind her back, loving in her place. Don’t stand for what’s wrong.

  35. I stood at the foot of the bed wondering what to do next. It was simple really. I just walk out. That was it. Just walk and don’t look back, don’t think about it, and don’t regret a moment of what happened.

  37. i understood immediately what he meant. she had been murdered. i would never see her smiling face again. the light would never shine through the trees onto her gorgeous, smiling, face again. in fact, the light would never at all, shine again.

  38. I stood above the bridge, overlooking the waves crashing down upon the rocks. So stereotypical for a somber day, I thought, yet still the feelings of happiness resided in me., His face broke through the clouds and the sun was shining over head, yet the rain kept pouring. Cold and colder it got, but the sun still bright above the sky. The devils’ beating his wife, I thought. It’s something, my moth use to say to me. Very graphic to say to a child, yet it stuck with me to adulthood. a forecasting shadow on a world I’m falling into, but i can’t stop now, I can look back but I just can;t stop now…
