They keep telling me that I need to stay here, inside these green walls. They say that I need time to rest and time away from everything and everybody else. I don’t believe them, but I also know that it is pointless to argue with them. I am not crazy. I understand that you don’t get to swallow almost an entire bottle of trazadone and people think that you are normal. If I was not enclosed in these walls and this story was...

A plea sent up to a silent space.Begging the keepers of time to freeze these seconds in place.A descent has occurred in my mind today.the familiar face of sanity has taken leave this day.I fight to hush the voice that screamsfrom my eyes.Distorting the image before me untilsuspicion greets the smiles that wander in on my never ending mile.Inside of a room with the pale green tile.The man in the white coat seems to be givi...

Let this be the time when I refuse to cry, when I refuse to let the past be the future that guides. Let this be the moment that I rush into faith, steadily rapping on the door so that freedom can take its place. Let this be the era when the color on my face will never be the instrument that I use to win this race.

This is an excerpt from my story DarkLight. All comments and opinions are welcome. Oknorube slowed down his travel when had reached a far enough distance away from earth. He looked at the planet and again felt himself drawn to the light that seemed to come from within and the darkness that seemed to bathe certain parts of the planet.

In this place in this space I want my mind to behave. I want the ache in my temple to up and go away. I am longing for a touch to ease this hurt away, angry of the betrayal that led your heart astray. And then hit with the truth that your love had gone away, I could think of no other words that I really wanted to say. In this place in this space waiting for life to begin, the playbacks and the setbacks send me swirling ag...

I want her smile, her lips, her hips, I want the twinkle in her eyes that causes men to lick their lips. I want her class and taste, her charm and grace, the aloofness of walking sure because she never worries about another taking her place. I want what she has, because it is the opposite of me, when I look in the mirror there is no pride in who I see. A brown girl living in a blind, vain world, the rest stop for men when...

I've got time to go in my mind and consider the ways that I see you as mine, the taste of your lips, the spring in your hips, don't quite express the way that my heart takes a dip when you enter the room and you say my name. The deepness of your voice never leaves me the same. But I find that lately, your presence is not enough. The absence of your intentions doesn’t replace the heat of your thrusts. My body may wait in e...
