It was unexpected...

American Carnage

James and Zarina are nobodies more or less until they've been arranged to marry each other.

Zarina felt herself being stared at which is something she should be used by now.  The three versions of herself in the mirror looked back at her for an answer to the question they posed. It made glancing at the beautiful figure in front of her hard and yet she remained absolutely entranced.I’ve never been so dolled up in my life, and it’s for a stranger.Being married off was one of her greatest fear, everyone told her it...

I never meant to do the things I did,But love made me do them.The words I said were not by my choice,Love made me say them. I never meant to say I quit,But love made me surrender,Taking that terrible hit. I never meant to smile as I walked away,But love made me do it,Saying he’d only hurt you if I stay. I never wanted to make you cry,Love made me do it,Saying it was better than living in a truthful lie. Love made me force...

You should be able to seeWhen I am struggling to beCold winds howl and shakeIt's harder now for me to wakeThis year you've turned blindLeaving me to flounder in my mindYears gone past you've held my handDon't leave me alone in this wastelandBack and forth, up an down, good and badI can't have taken all that you hadReach for me before I fall into the abyssI'll try and catch your hand, pray I don't missJust another winter,...

Until We Meet Again

Written for and dedicated in loving memory to my beautiful Angel Face, Katy

Another years gone by since God called you home;It's never gotten easier, but still, we carry on;We take each day as it comes, a moment at a time;And bask in cherished memories, that always cross our minds;You were a precious gift, sent from Heaven up above;My special Angel Face, filled with boundless love;You're loved and missed by many; that will never change;You'll always be in our hearts until we meet again.

Vampire Justice Part 23

Gwen thinks about Quinn and Slade sees them getting friendly.

Gwen sat quietly, deep in thought as the room emptied. Slade sat beside her and leaned down to get on her level. He knew how she felt. It was a big step and a difficult task to deceive someone who is a friend and superior. Her face held the look of concern and fear. "Don't concern yourself with Raven. She is a smart lawyer and knows how to protect herself. She knows that giving information about police activity before it...

Take A Chance on Me

Would you take a chance on me? You’d know what you’d be getting, I’m exactly what it says on the tin. I’d be that man you can rely on, there for you through thick and thin.

Would you take a chance on me? I’d be a great dad for the little one, enter...

Gift

Precious gift our heart desires...

On the eve of Christmas day, a mother just got home from working overtime at the factory to a simple house. The dark and the silence of the house welcomes her.She sets her tired ass on the hard wooden chair, raises her feet up on a box. Looking at the white school socks hanging by the window. The wind is blowing on the socks swaying like laundry hanging outside.She opens her bag to get her gifts. She wills her tired self...

A man sat and contemplated his life It was one not worth enduring, he thought And the months stacked upon each other His feeble existence weighed heavy on his mind And one day, he stood and set out On his first day, he composed a symphony So glorious was his creation That it brought a tear to all who heard it On his second day, he set aside his fear of rejection And he bedded a woman, fair and beautiful So rich was his ex...

Surfing Santas and Sandmen

Minus two with freezing fog? Not this year

Catrin ran full tilt, her bare feet kicking up sand. Gleaming in the sunlight, her long auburn hair billowed out behind her like a sheet of flames. Without breaking stride, she glanced over her shoulder, and shrieking, picked up the pace. With the bells on her felt antlers jangling raucously and peals of laughter ringing from her throat, heads turned to look as Catrin smashed headlong into a huge, smirking Sandman. “Arghh...

Leona is now in charge of VJS. Things get moving to capture and watch Carlo.

The door opened with a loud bang as Connie and Leona entered the conference room. There was rage on the faces of the women and the group in the room looked up in fear and shock. Slade rose immediately approaching the vampires. He took Leona's hand pressing it to his lips trying to console and calm her. She tore her hand from his, glaring at the group around the table. She glided to the head of the table and stood there co...

Vampire Justice Part 21

Gwen meets Quinn and Anna

Anna tightly hugged the unicorn's neck, as Gwen and Quinn descended the slight rise before they shifted. The fact they held hands gave Anna hope that Quinn finally found someone to love and accompany. He was alone since his steady girlfriend died at the hands of a vampire. Her death sparked the trip to observe the VJS in action in solving preternatural crimes. He hoped to learn as much as he could to set up a VJS in Kiev....

This is a world of illusion,where truth gives way to fictionPeople say they want the real,but too much and they will bristle Where those who say they are open,lock you out when they are done,and the non-judgmental among us,will define you by your weakness They tell you to let your light shine though,but only if it stays out of their view,or that you're connected to all,while they hide behind a wall Speak your mind and the...

I have so much love for the arts and anything creative. It just sets my heart on fire, and that's why I'm always trying out different things here and there.I was trying to do a little bit of writing. I get my inspiration mostly from my friend Anthony Chansa. I swear this person can write no lie and my aim is to be even at least half as good as him.It is the tiny piece of writing I did last night when I couldn't sleep. It'...
