Let's write some riddles!

Rune-spot on
Raven-Solid answer but not what I had in mind. I think something fits even better.

Thanks for the praise and participation.

You folks are too good so I'm going to try and make them a bit harder. Here's to seeing if it works...
------------------------
We see escape and push to be free
Our captor, frantic, binds you and me
Caught we turn and slow betray
‘till none could ever get away
And trapped again within our cell
A pressing prison ‘till our death knell
 

Before my birth I am conceived
and grow and sprout both limb and leaves
until I’m brought to proper form
then idly I do adorn
till brilliant minds upon me find
a whim or dream or vision prime
and then my form is too complete
a mask I wear for all I greet

A
dairy
or possibly a
journal
?
 



Last possible answer I have is a
Thesis
.
You and Raven both got really close. The answer I had in mind was a Canvas. Begins as a plant until transformed into a canvas and sits upon the easel until someone finds their inspiration upon it and begins to paint and when it is done all who look upon it see the vision of the artist instead of the face of the canvas.

A bump since the the riddle four posts up has no answers just yet. You all were answering them so quick that I tried to make this one harder but perhaps I went too far.
 

Forgive this wordy riddle, please:
You qualify your works with these.
Difference is shown when used alone,
But joined one way or joined the other,
One yields its meaning to its brother.

Here's one I'm working on and could use some help coming up with a last line...I just added something I'm trying out as the last line by it doesn't hold together as well as I'd like:

When my name is called your children run screaming;
But if you think to find me then surely you're dreaming.

Down your spine I send pin-pricks as if some chill
Had sapped your strength and roasted your will...

...I come at night to take the name of your mother,
For what's fair for the one is fair for his brother.

[MENTION=67]Rune[/MENTION] Ah it says "qualifying works" as in deeds or actions. Good one! The answer has got to be...
