Monitors are beeping everywhere, but I’m not the patient anymore. Twelve years through medical school did a number on me. My name is Fran, and this is my story. I was five when I was diagnosed with skin cancer, all those days by the pool might have been a bad idea. I went through many trials of chemotherapy before my doctor cleared me. After ten years of fighting, I finally won the battle. College...
There was a relief in feeling the storms approach
The thunder rolled between the clouds
And the lightning filled the streets
But only for a mere second
The storm approached us fast
But lingered below
It would leave damaged goods
As it blows through
Nothing can save us now
Perhaps if the summer were to leave
The storm would brew another day
Then my laughter could maybe stay away...
We walked up the steps, we didn’t realize it at the time. At the top was a secret pressure plate, it was disguised, blended into the top of the stairs. It opened the front door, but surely this was a trap. The second we stepped foot inside the dark caves, the feeling in the atmosphere changed. Julia and I made it through the first room with no traps set. She thought it would be an easy trip to get...
There he was, his smile could light up a room. It certainly amused me. He was one of a kind, his strength was ungodly. At first it scared me, until it didn’t. He saved me from a terrible past, the kind that haunted you until you fed into it. He could move things so fast and with so much ease. It was the reason that I fell in love with him. He could talk himself out of any situation. He was the bes...
Yellow haystacks followed one another. Zach and Kaycee were the best of friends who thought the Halloween themed maze was a great idea. Kaycee was ready to celebrate with her friend, they had been in this maze for an hour now. “We need to find the way out Zach.” “I know, I’m trying to find it. I tried to push the bails of hay, but it is as if they are cemented together.” The laughter from the othe...
Loving someone includes a warm embrace
Lasting forevermore
Living with your soulmate
Lost in the words I cannot speak
Learning everything about him
Love alas everlasting
Lonely nights gone forever
Leaning near him always
Loving someone includes two souls
Lasting for centuries more
Living in a world chaotic
Lost at sea
Learning to find myself
Love again and yet again
Lonely nights are chipp...
The ground was purple, and the sky glowed yellow. I was the maid of the land, I did everyone’s chores. In hope for a better life, I cleaned my life away. I know I wasn’t Cinderella by any means, but could I at least try? My mother passed away when the Dark Age came upon us all, the planet gave off deadly toxins. My mother wore her mask, but it wasn’t enough. She went out for groceries but never ma...
Writing is my bliss, I spend hours writing. I can create any fantasy, any world I desire. From fantasy to horror, my screen is my open world. I can write just about anything, or nothing at all. The screen on my word document is mine to create. I can stare at a picture, or watch any movie screen and instantly have an idea for a novel. I am currently writing a romance about a vampire who could only ...
I saw him standing there, but his mind was absent. “Hey Josh, earth to Josh?” “Oh, right.” “What’s going on with you lately?” “Nothing, I just have a lot of homework to do, I will see you later?” I wasn’t sure if he was asking to see me later, or if he was unsure of himself. We’ve been dating for three years, we were now seniors in college. I saw him get into his car and drive away.
I was packin...
