The great celestial begin to fall below the curvature of the horizon; all life being drained from the sky above. Sensing his departure, his younger sister began to slowly fade into existence; if only for a time.
Although he had left, and taken his fiery warmth with him, she would let him rest....
“What the…”
Jamie’s voice trailed off.
“LORD HAVE MERCY!”, an old woman’s voice screaming from the patio.
Jamie dropped the knife to the ground and dashed for the patio door.
“He was joking. He would never. He would never he would never hewouldneverhewouldnever”, she chanted in her head. She knew things had gotten headed between them, but there’s no way he would-
She burst onto the patio to ...
Love explored is ambition ignited. Souls call to those near to be freed from their earthly bound, the wheel, the pendulum. It swings, I step. Again. Body aches, mind awake. Fires stoked, the hearth hums. It quiets against its will, waiting for the next moment to set ablaze. It begs, avail not. Not to burn, none in sight. The hound rests as ears raise, ready for the call. The chase, the wild. It’s ...
Ryan ducked under a branch and kept up the sprint. He had never seriously RAN a day in his life and his lungs felt like they were going to burst in the cold forest air.
Still running he turned his head to see if he could still see it behind him, but saw only darkness.
“Did I actually lose it?”
THWACK
Ryan crumpled to the ground. He sat there in dazed confusion, unsure of what had just happene...
I yelled for him to stop; but the act was in motion. What our middle brother saw as a gentle push, our youngest saw as cataclysmic.
It wasn’t the pain but the sick that triggered his eyes to burst with tears. Our middle brother instantly stuttered apologize to both him and myself, promising and crossing his heart that he didn’t mean to push him that hard.
I move past him to the youngest and pro...
Why must love be so hard to find?
I don’t believe in star crossed eyes
Meant-to-be just seems so dull
Soulmates are in truth such gull
But a truer love will there ever be?
Perhaps the Fates waste not on me?
I must consider what it is I seek
Just a hand in mine to keep?
I close myself but long to talk
To share life’s all in common walk
Men of my life have proven trickster
Many tears that fell...
I had just killed a few moments fumbling with a cone cup when I caught Jason making his way over.
“Please don’t talk to me”, I inaudibly mutters as I walked away pretending not to notice him.
“HEEEY, Brian! Whats up man how’s your morning been? You see that invite I forwarded you for the company fly fishing team I’m looking to set up? Back in high-school I was actually a heckuva flying fisherma...
“… so I think I’ll have to stick with Aquafina for now on.”, Marley struggled out through her laughter. I nearly spat my caramel macchiato out onto table as I seized up myself in tears. I caught others side eyeing our noise in disapproval, but neither of us cared.
I had never laughed this hard in my life, in fact I don’t think I’ve ever held a conversation with someone for over a half-hour befor...
- I opened my eyes again and suddenly I was standing on a sprawling battlefield, surrounded by men charging each other from both sides.
None of the men had swords in their hands though- instead they chose to slap and punch each other. I watched as one man put another in a headlock, and slam him down into a nasty suplex.
I looked to my right and saw a man lying on the ground holding his stomac...
