The Forest Camp

T.L. Hart

1 min read

I heard the noise coming from the bushes. It caused my heart to leap into my throat. It sounded like footsteps but I could not be sure. Had I not been pulled from my slumber it would have been easy to identify the noise.

Looking around I notice the absence of Zash. Everyone else was accounted for, but the young messenger was missing. He was to be on lookout but he was no where to be found. The n...

The Pen

It fell to the floor

And it shook me to the core

I watched as it fell slowly

Never had I thought of my self so lowly

As it broke my zen

The falling of the pen...

Christmas Day

T.L. Hart

1 min read

I hear the footsteps come down the steps. I see the smiles on the children’s face. Today is a special day. I wait all year to see them play with the toys that we make. Being an elf can be a lot of work. Days and Days making toys for one special day, but it’s all worth it when we see the child’s face. Santa may bring all the toys for the little girls and boys, but it is the elves that do all the wo...

It’s Never Really Christmas

T.L. Hart

1 min read

I watched out the window. The snow drifted slowly to the ground. I could hear children playing in the distance, but it didn’t make me smile.

I had not been in the Christmas mood for years now. I saw no reason to smile or laugh. I hadn’t even seen my family since my birthday had passed. Nothing had felt the same since you left me.

You told me you wanted me to be happy, and I usually would, but w...

I Am Sorry

It was completely dark in the cells. I could feel Dex moving to my left. It had been a long time since we had been alone together, and I could feel tension hanging in the air.

“Dex, I said, my voice breaking the silence, “I am sorry.” It felt good to finally say those words, but I was also afraid of how Dex would react. I had left him alone for almost two years, thinking I was dead. I knew that ...

Protect It: It Could Save The World

T.L. Hart

3 min read

We were sprinting through the castle—Thane and Dex were right beside me; it felt like old times. We had come in, got the file, and were going to make it out alive. Then they came.

All around us, we were surrounded by guards with guns. They came from the ceiling, through the windows; some even came through trapped doors I had not seen on the way in.

How could I be so foolish to think that we wou...

What If Magic Was Real

T.L. Hart

1 min read

What if magic was real

Would it still give us that thrill

Would we open our eyes as it floats on by

Or would we be nothing but another bird in the sky

What if magic was real

Would it really be that surreal

To see magic every day

When we let our minds drift away

What if I told magic is real

Would you do a cartwheel

What if I told you we see it every day

When our minds stray away

What if I told y...

The Traitor

3 min read

I slipped into the king’s chamber that night. It wasn’t hard, especially since he dismissed the guards early for his mistresses.

The room was large and filled to the brim with gold and jewels. Expensive plates sat in cabinets, and crowns that were far too heavy to wear were seated next to them on pedestals. The king had been hoarding the wealth of his country for far too long, and his subjects w...

A Land Of Strangers

The buildings were made of trees, and when I say they were made of trees, I mean the trees were actually buildings. They were tall and foreboding standing above me like the tallest skyscrapers in the city.

The buildings had no doors, just moss that fell in front of the doorways to keep nose people out. The windows had no glass, but I knew that they would not need glass here. In this city, there ...

Hometown

It’s winter back in my hometown

The snow will be falling slowly down

Twinkling lights will be hung downtown

That’s just how it’s done in a small town

The snow will be falling slowly down

Children are playing on the playground

That’s just how it’s done in a small town

And so it will will stay until sundown

Children are playing on the playground

Parents are on the porch counting down

And so it wi...
