The ancient gift that God gave man, the awareness of time and distance span.We stand now among a dwindling crowd, our brothers and sisters whom we disavowed.So do we care or even admit, twas only by the gift are we thus fit.Can our species' conscience bear, the dread guilt weight of death we share?Or will we run and hide in shame, fleeing in fear to avoid the blame.Pray that the Master's trust in us be right, ere daybreak...

Sive had swiftly realized her only chance was to get up into the dark rafters and crossbeams the dancing poles were attached to. If she could reach the beams and hide behind them long enough maybe the Sargo police would get here soon . They could divert the pirates giving her a chance to disappear amongst the crowd. She slowly turned to face the pirate. He was loosely pointing his gun at her as he walked towards her. She...

Thrain and company: Chapter 9Thrain woke shivering with cold and with the sensation of tiny needles jabbing into his face. He got up slowly and found himself in a dark and damp little cavern area, with the jagged little crystals forming small bedrocks above the pool of water around. "Good you're awake." A voice said from behind him.He turned and saw it was Garren who said that, and next to him were two bodies, one was Ade...

You will never know how much I wish those children were mine. The two little boys God said I could never have. The 2 little boys you told others I had but didn't take care of. I would have loved them. Why did you have to tell a lie that ended so horribly? Who are you? You are not the person I knew. He was special to me. Kind and sweet, not a cruel evil liar. I treasured his friendship and thought he treasured mine. You ca...

I was whole,  A whole person  Before you came along. You caressed my smooth skin,  Admired my silky softness.  Kissed and licked  Then declared, I am yours to keep. Everywhere you touched  Left marks.  Marks I knew would never disappear, Yet I loved them all the same. Each day that passed,  You left more marks,  Marks of love, you said.  I embraced them, embraced your love. The marks began to hurt When you no longer cares...

Thanks.---oo--- "911, where's the emergency?""Uhm..., I want to report a fatal shooting" Smiling happily, he drove his car on to the bridge on his way to his fiancee.

She sits on darkgrass, like a migratingbird with a broken wing, calling his name.The moon,like a ball of brightwool,lazes softly in a tree’sfork,its feet hanging over intospace.She has chosen night for hertask because she is empty;there are no angels here.A light rainbeats its gentlerhythm on theleaves,a benighted squirrel jerks its hairy head, suspiciousof thesilence; andsheslipsslowlyaway.

A promise from my lover isthe glass beneath my feetwhich cuts me and unfolds to me my lover’s black deceit. A promise from my lover isthe blood that wakes the dead,and dyes the hems of my long skirtin shades of dirty red. A promise from my lover is the vine that curls betweenmy bloody toes, and then it growsin places all uns...

When I first met you, you were broken No friends, no life, just drama. Wanting so badly to be loved by men. Only finding that men wanted you for only one thing. We became friends and sisters. In that we both found comfort. Your life began to change for the better. Our friendship had created a bond that could not be broken. When things went bad for me you were there, when it was bad for you. I was there. Everyone warned me...
