The faster he ran, the longer it look to reach the end. His ocean blue hair looked like a blur of sky against his grass green skin. His tail swished behind him as he hopped over logs and streams. His cat-like ears tried to locate his enemy over the vast forest he was stranded in. The creatures clothes seemed to float with him, his hood always staying close to his head.

The creature suddenly stopp...

The world will burn.

They sent a raging fire across the country. No one knows where it came from, only that it kills everything it touches.

I ran with my family, out of our village to the next one over. We barely escaped, most of our belonging were burned as we fled. I watched my friends die, I watched my house burn, and I watched everything I loved disappear.

As we drove off, I could see the...

My life is pretty boring. I wake up, look at my bed while contemplating life, and get some breakfast. Today I had some leftover corn. Boring. Everyday is the same.

Some days, my friend brings me food from the outside world. Sometimes she brings me ingredients to make cake or pie, and sometimes she beings me the fresh produce she bought. God I love her.

I walked over to the entrance of my home; ...

The space between stars is best described as…

A vast nothingness

A chance to lay down in darkness

A way to forget all about the future

A way to forget all about the past

Space is nothing at all

Space is everything at once

It is vast, lengthy, and huge

It is compact, short, and small

It is the space between stars...

*Ding!*

I stood up from my chair in the living room, put down my phone, and headed to the door. It was strange that my doorbell dinged, I didn’t invite anyone over or order anything.

I opened the door and looked around. There was no one here.

Then, I spotted a gift. A brown box with sparkling red ribbon and matching bow. However, the strangest thing was that there no labels that said who it wa...

I sat on my chair at my desk, with a glass jar in my lap. The jar was clear with the company label imprinted on it. It had dirt inside. I was waiting for something to grow.

I stared at it, waiting for something, anything to grow. Nothing did.

I closed my eyes and concentrated harder than I ever did before. I visualized plants growing out of the jar. Vines, flowers, and leaves all sprouting out ...

I passed by my fireplace. Oranges, yellows, and reds, dancing on thick logs behind silver bars.

I headed towards the bookshelf on the wall, and picked up my favorite book. I’ve read it a million times, but it still excites me.

I sat down on the couch, in front of the fireplace, and started to read.

My mother called me from outside, “SWEETY! Uhh, get outside, NOW!”

“Coming!” I rolled my eyes, t...

I fell into your trap

How gullible of me

You put me in a trance with your forest green eyes

I’ll never get lost in your forest again

You told me you loved me

And I said the same

Your blood red lips touched mine over and over

I let you willingly

You were my lover;

Never Again...

She was the sun, burning with love, compassion, and energy.

I was the moon, cold, sorrow, and lazy.

The people of Earth adored her dearly; she made their plants grow and their happiness stronger. The people drew her in a heavenly way. She was their queen.

The people didn’t appreciate me as much; I was only lighting up the night sky a little bit after all.

The sun was so regal and beloved, that...

Once a year, They would come down from the heavens and grant our wishes.

They were what we worshiped and gave our prayers to.

However, for some reason, they have not come down to greet us in a century.

We suffered with famine, sickness, and death. These were the most terrible years in the history of our community.

One day, a slit formed in the clouds. It was spectacular. The suns’ rays shone ...
