How The Suffering Spread

Lydia Mae

2 min read

The poor _pigeons_ sat in their cages. Waiting for their fate. For they already watched half of their friends taken by the humans in the long white coats.

These pigeons had spent their lives flying through the skies but, at last, their time had come. One lady with _nutmeg _hair stepped into the room and reached in to grab one of the birds. It screamed and strangled but in the end the girl wrapped...

What Happened On March 5th?

**March 5 2025**

It all started with the old cars hidden in the woods. My team has had tons of tips coming in about the small group of cars sitting in the middle of our local forest.

One man came into the station early this morning and loudly said, in a thick country accent

“Me and my Pa have gone deer hunting back there since I was a kid and we ain’t never seen those old things before.”

Then la...

Cold, cold air

Stuffy room

Medicine smell

“Don’t pull at your hair”

_Don’t tell me what to do_

Tapping feet to the soft music

It’s meant to sound good

It’s a headache

This chair gets uncomfortable

When you’ve been sitting in it for

An hour

_She’s probably not coming_

Like last time

And the time before.

Then the lady leaves

She claims she will be back

I’ve learned that’s a lie

I’m alone with...

Apocalyptic Lovers

Lydia Mae

I leap over cars and swing past street lights. Alice follows behind me. I hear her strangled huffs, her bad leg must be killing her. But I don’t look back as we continue to run through the barren street. We can’t stop, the zombies are hot on our tails.

It was a bad idea to head to the city, but we needed medicine. The one thing people are desperate for in this stupid apocalypse.

I see our escap...

Rosey Red Trail

Lydia Mae

2 min read

The girl walks, quickly, hugging the small bouquet of roses tightly to her chest. Her hand wraps around the stem of one and a sudden pain flows through her body. She attempts to brush back her brown messy hair but only smears blood across her worried frantic face.

Her quick steps are the only noise filling the Red Forest, but somehow they only make the space feel more empty. She knows not of the ...

A Bird With Great Timing

“Nonononononono!” I huff with gulping breaths.

I haven’t looked back for five minutes because I know they won’t stop chasing me until I’m dead. My heart is pounding as I sprint through the woods…..when I see her soaring above me in the sky. First I don’t believe it, because I only know her from legends and myths, but then she dips down through the trees.

She is beautiful, and unlike anything I’v...

Two Bickering Thieves

“It’s hard to be inconspicuous when you’re hanging upside down.”

He jeers at me

I fight the strong urge to kick him in the face.

He is holding my ankles as I hang off the side of the building, peering through the highest apartment window in the city.

“If I had a penny for every time I wanted to break your nose I wouldn’t have to rob this building!”

I only just met him today and somehow he has conv...

Scared of the past

(This is a palindrome poem so when you finish you read each line from the bottom up)

To fly backwards in time

I don’t think I would want,

After all I’ve been through,

To make anything different

Because all I want is

To live in the moment

I don’t know how

To heal because

Regretting things won’t help

All I know is

I can learn from my mistakes

Going backwards...

The Beauties And Fears

Lydia Mae

2 min read

When you wake up in a place where you didn’t go to sleep there is a lot to think about.

1: I don’t remember falling asleep

2: I don’t know how I got here

3: I’m really hungry

So that’s the position I’m in. But not for long. To be honest I’m not surprised this happened, in this day and age getting knocked out and kidnapped isn’t your biggest problem, more so trying to avoid the terrifying forces o...

His primary concern was the fact he had no idea where he was. He could hear thunder around him, but the blindfold and handcuffs made it practically impossible ...
