If you are reading it elsewhere, it has been stolen.Little star within the heavens,Twinkling down from indigo,Send me shining, sweet delightsAnd drench my dreams in fairy glow.Silver moonbeams flow from your hair,Diamond sparkles adorn your dress;Glitter softly on my face,I long to be a star princess.As I look up into the skyWhere thundering hooves of midnight horsesPull the zoom...
All of it was true-What I said in the letter-But you already know that,Don't you?There were some rough patches,Amidst all the randomness,And sweet words,But we talked about those-Your words had mine caught in my throat.You do that to me so often-leave me speechlessor with a happy little frog in my throatI say happy, because, really, you've never made me cry except in happiness and joy.~~~ You make my heart flutterand my b...
It was dark and cold under the looming canopy of trees. The moon shown through the leaves, casting pale patches of light, obscuring the eerie shadows. Everything was still for this was the meeting place. A frigid breeze sliced through the trees filling the empty space with the rushing sound of leaves. The wind faded leaving a deathly silence and a gathering of figures appearing. Solemn and silent they stood, examining the...
Fog had seeped into the empty space just beyond the tree line of the forest, submerging the small house. A thick cloak that even the most skilled of hunters could barely see through. William wasn’t concerned, summer was fading to fall and fog was likely to start appearing more often. He made sure his father took another dose of medicine. These were leaves stir fried so the medicine contained within the plant was released....
This poem only available on Stories Space. If you are reading it elsewhere, it has been stolen.Search the starsFor dreams that are lost.Fly upon the backs of carrion crowsAs they batter their ragged wingsAgainst walls of dead airWith gluttonous envy in their eyes.Lay down your ragged breathUpon the iron earthAs it rusts away in the peat bogsAnd raises the stink ofIdeas in decay.Pluck your visions from theEntrails of sinAn...
Last night was like all the others I have as of late. I sent my baby to bed, with a kiss on the lips. Oh so sweet. I ventured into the kitchen and made myself dinner, where I fixed some stir fry, asparagus and Texas toast. My evening was fine; I was even in a good mood for once! As the night went on, my mood stayed high, it was oddly good though didn't know why. I sat here and read endless stories, even got to speak with...
She held her covers over herself in an attempt to hide from her nightmares. Curled in a ball, she felt protected and safe- much like a cat does when it sleeps that way. But if she had only known then what she knew now, she'd escape to dreams- no matter how terrifying- instead of reality. She would soon learn- there are scarier things out there than heights and falling, and scarier men than the unknown murderer on the TV s...
Dream Time I (draft) Shortly after she'd sent me away at 12, feeling like a good horse or warm buffalo robe, my mother was returning me from a visit at the studio where she lived, to my father's house – we'd not stopped for homemade pie and coffees at the truck-stop as I’d hoped – when she looked over to me, questioning my long, unaccustomed quiet. She was taken aback by my appearance next to her in the passenger's seat....
It was official. This was the worst day of her whole life. The humiliation she felt flaunting around in a slightly revealing dress to a man she had never met before. The man was more interested in the cupcakes than her. She irritatedly growled and excused herself from the banquet, before she had to see him gorging on another one. “My father expects me to entertain that!” she shouted, once safely inside her room. Helen rus...

If you are reading it elsewhere, it has been stolen.Tired old mud-splatteredWell-worn boot.Nobody's Number One,They don't give a hoot.Dull ugly colours, somewhat ragged,Got some holes.Dirt-stiff ancient lacesHolding on to worn-down soles.Glitter-pretty princess shoe,Shining golden heel;This is party girl's first choice,Like royalty, she'll feel.Shining sequins scatteredUpon a gol...
Just after dawn the stranger trudged into Harper's Gully leading his horse. They stopped at the watering trough where the horse plunged his muzzle and the man filled his hat which he poured over his head. The water only removed some of the dust from him. He pumped a stream of water from the pump, captured a double handful and slowly swallowed it. He pulled the horse from the trough and continued along the street to the li...
Friend me she said, I remember the day. So many months ago, But seems like just yesterday. Chat me she said, You seem like a nice guy. I don’t have many friends, So I gave it a try. Kiss me she said, Come closer to me. Trapped by her charms, She led me so easily. Touch me she said, Her body was mine. How could I not? Even if only online. Fuck me she said, I’m ready for you. I slid inside her, As my feelings grew. Love me...
I don’t remember your face or your smile. I don’t remember the warmth of your skin or the touch of your kiss. I don’t remember you at all. I've heard the stories my brothers and dad tell about you, stories about a beautiful woman with long blonde hair and a glowing smile. Of how you were kind, gentle and loving. Always ready with a hug or a smile and there ready to help on a project or with someone’s homework. These are t...
(3/7/13) Searching for a dream that had become undone Searching for a dream that I knew would never come Searching for that dream in my later years No more perseverance, just a lot of fears. Time is now against me – no longer will it bend Time is against me – it’s no longer my companion or my friend. This dream that I had will be a memory in my past This dream that I had – gone away too fast. Why do we fail to strive for...
Lay down, Ignore the pain, Close your eyes, Imagine it again- You aren't alone, There's someone with you, Don't be lonely, I am here. Curl up close, Careful- it hurts, I'll hold you tight, but gentle enough that it won't hurt you. Tight hugs, tight enough for closeness; safety, soft enough it doesn't squeeze, Are you okay? I breathe I leave I go to school, Back to bed- Back to sleep.
