It's a beautiful day outside blue skies not a cloud  But in here it's stormy  Grey clouds building thick with no signs of clearing.You have really done it this time  alienated everyone that helps you, the people you called friends. Even the person you call your best friend,the person you always asked for help And he bailed you out, if he could.What are you going to do now? Do you have a plan for when you get out of hospit...

Restaurant windows blazing lightOver rain slicked pavement.Warm glow embracing you as you enter.I remain in the limbo of the night,Watching you from across the green.The silent watcher in the parkStaring through the drizzling dark,Concealed in dripping shadows. A figure rises, moves to greet you,Auburn tresses haloed in light.I see her hand take yours,Your arm pulling her close.Your soft lips meet.She's beautiful. I loath...

They were like no other: The gentle touch; the soft, comforting presence. They rested on my shoulders Only for a moment. But they felt like They were there for a lifetime. For those few moments they were there, I felt a comfort long forgotten by Many like me, many without a father, Without the father they know and love. I grasped those roughened hands- So large yet so loving- with both of my own- So small and tender besid...

My princess deserves to be playing with dolls with long purple hair Or chasing rainbows to discover the gold. Not dealing with these issues, She is only a child. Our home is our castle, So she should have been safe. Why did this happen? What did she do? I guess I am to blame, Because I trusted this person They were like my family And I never suspected. So as I went out on the town Enjoying times with my friends My princes...

Since I've known you all I've doneIs build you up and give you love.I loved you for so long and yetAll you do is take and get.You tear me down and make me cryAll I can think of is "Why?"Why did I waste all these years?Why did I give you all my tears?Why did I care what you thought?Pain is all it ever wrought.I trusted you and held you closeBut never again, "That's all, folks".You belittle me and break my heartSo now it's...

Was there no way to kill Alex so that he would just stay dead?Jason leveled his blaster and shot again, hitting Alex in the center of the chest. Alex hit the lush green grass of the park with a dull thud, and lay there unmoving. Jason waited, his arm extended straight out in front of him, his blaster unwavering.Around him, people scattered in all directions, screaming.Jason knew they would call the authorities, but he did...

I slowly awoke from my slumber. I heard the steady drone of a fan. I remembered the shadow of a dream as reality spread before my senses. I had been frightened and running, but I couldn't remember anything specific just a feeling of desperation. I began to notice my surroundings. I didn't know where I was. I didn't feel Billy curled up next to me. I wasn't even in my own bed. Memories sluggishly filled the void of my cons...

I felt numb. I needed clean clothes and a shower. I felt.... dirty. I needed to stop seeing Billy entwined with that woman as though their two bodies were one. The harder I tried not to think about it, the more I saw all the details in my head. I could still see her legs lifted across his shoulders. I could still hear the primitive sounds of their passion escaping their throats and her scream as she begged for more. I sti...

There was no mail in the box that dayJust a lonesome little noteIt was opulently dressed in a gold leaf sheatheGold wax stamped the back flap closedBlack calligraphy skillfully addressed The letter in care of my nameThe return address was markedly absentAnd its postmark conspicuously the sameThe lone envelope felt very weightyAs I clutched it tightly in my handAnd although its contents were not yet revealedInstinct hinted...

Verse 1 You were the love of my life Well that’s what I thought It was all just a lie Like it or not Try to run byYou can’t fool my eye You better watch out Time will run outPre-chorus Something critical comin' in the dark Can’t stray away from me  I’m gonna catch up Look over your shoulder you’ll never find me I’ll be a surprise you ain’t ever seenChorus Lights lights lights lights lights Those lights are comin' after yo...

There once was a lonely wood spriteWho went searching for nymphs to woo. He went to a glen, to a grove And met a precious Alseid. She tossed him away and left him Without any hope of true love. He traveled up hill to a vale Where an Auloniad had been. But she never appeared to give Him a chance to plight her his troth. On the breeze he met an Aura Who blew him a kiss and wink. That was all he would get from the Little sof...

Words of love were spoken.Trust was asked and given.Faith in truth was broken.Hope and hearts were riven.What does this betoken?All my life I'd strivenBut her oaths were lying.Even though protestingHonor, vows were dying.Pledges made, attestingTo the end denying,Twisted lies divesting.*************************At the start we marriedBoth our souls into one,And our hopes we carriedTowards the far horizon.All our fears we bu...

She didn't mean to lie. Not to him; not to anybody. Yet, despite her efforts the truth was never an option to speak out loud. She loved him. That was the only truth worth mentioning, the only thing that had ever mattered in her life. Tears clouded her vision, letting memory lead her to her destination. In her head, she replayed the scene over and over again. She was sent out on a job by her father. One target, an officer,...
