Taking a Shower

I went to the gym for a swim.

I was at the gym the other day. I wanted to swim for an hour, but they closed the pool for cleaning and maintenance. I settled for a nice ride on the recumbent bicycle instead. After pedaling for fifteen miles, it was time to stop. I went into the locker room, got out of my sweaty clothes, grabbed a towel and took a leisurely shower. When I finished I got dressed and left the locker room. On my way out the door past the f...

Woman

forgive me for praising my own kind...

Designed to be soft... Fighting to survive in this lifetime. Loves unconditionally without expectation. Willing to get pregnant with a child for nine months. Willing to endanger her life by giving birth. Surrendering her life for the one man. Designed to be needy... Her loved ones first in everything she does. Happy to have made you smile. A slave by choice for life. Provides a homey atmosphere. Loves to take care of her...

A Chance to explain

A second chance please...

I really need the opportunity to make you understand what I actually meant.  To tell you what I was trying to say  when my words just came out all wrong.  You see, my nerves got the better of me  and I got all tongue tied  And the compliment I was trying to give  came out more like an insult instead.  So I hope you will accept my apology  and please give me the chance to explain.  'Cause you are really are one in a millio...

Every once in a while you are lucky enough to meet someonewho changes your perspective. This one person comes into your life and alters the way you view the world; the way you view yourself. Mundane tasks become enjoyable when you are with them, and even the shortest length of time spent apart seems like far too long. They are the first person you want to share good news with, and the one you want to console you when the...

My treasure

My treasure

You stood there at my side, when others walked away, not wanting me to be a part. You lent me your ear, when others turned their heads. You lent me your shoulder, when others would not. You took me in your arms, when other pushed me away. You wiped away my tears, when other looked away. You calmed my nerves, and eased my pain, when other enjoyed it. You kissed me on the forehead, told me everything will be okay. You hugge...

I was about to leave  When you reached out grabbing my hand. Pulling me closer,Placing me on your lap.I looked in your eyes, As you wrapped your arms Around my waist. Resting my head on your shoulder, As you rest your head against mine.  Enjoying a brief moment Before turning to ask.What can I do? A tear runs down your cheek, And you said "please stay and just hold me tight".

2014

So Far...

What is it about the start of a New Year that gives people hope of change? As if, once the previous year ends, the new will be clean and the past can’t hurt us. I am, of course, a victim of this thinking. Or, maybe, it’s just me who thinks like this? I’m not sure. The start of 2013 was pretty good for me. I was happy, I had a boyfriend, I was healthy, and I even met a person, who quickly became my best friend. I thought 2...

Slap!

a dream

I walk down the hall. There's a hutch with trophies in it, all of them made of gold or silver. The floor is wooden, stained oak. Stairs are ahead of me and my friend stands at the bottom. I try to smile, but my lips get stuck at a grimace. She looks up at me, her green eyes wide, and shakes her head, eyelids falling to half down her eyes. The disappointment slaps me in the face and even as I awake I swear I can feel a bur...

You will never see your sixteenth and all because your sister's ex was mad she was dating again enough to kill you because you got in his way and kidnap her after choking her into submission. You will never kiss your girlfriend again and I know many say you were too young to understand love that you both were too young to know it, but I hear her sister speak of you two, and I know it to be true. You will never dance toget...

Gidealis Enigma Chapter 21

To win the war. To find solace. To do something important.

Chapter 21 The Shadow of Ari Taken aback by the prophet’s reaction I glance at Eva, standing there very calmly. “I told you to kill them, Demi, not send them running!” Sada is distraught, and she leans on the counter, shaking. “I did that. But this turned out to be even better – it’s shamefully hilarious! They ran with their tails between their legs… hehehe!” “Wait, these are not your species? They had tails?” Eva is visi...

A Welcomed high school reunion

One of the few people from the past I welcomed

Anyone that knows me is aware that I always hated school, and that's a hate with a capital H. Such was my disgust at the way I was treated by students and staff that I quit in my Junior year. As I said in an earlier story there were no bullying laws in place, complaints about being picked on and targeted by the school toughs were answered with a "You better toughen up".Students that did well were praised, those of us that...

Friend

What would we do with out friends?

Darkness invade reality, light and color fade. Our world completely tipped upside down. Deep in the gloom, feeling totally betrayed. Words from a friend can remove our frown. Brightening our day with kindness and a smile. Without even knowing, they change grey to blue. Making life worth living, able to go another mile. Darkness fades, again the suns rays shine through. Colour invades and reality returns to entice. Love of...
