I wasn’t like other boys. From a young age, I remember not wanting to play sports on the playground during breaks at school. I didn’t want to join any teams, preferring to sit in the library or other classrooms and read books. I graduated highschool without many friends. My twin was there with me, walking the stage, but he preferred the sports, the friends. We were close, and we shared a room for ...
I loved you before I met you
My twin from the dark
You were our mother’s favorite
She’d play with us in the park
Little rubber boots
Puddles in the rain
How she’d gazed at your picture
Now missing from the frame
A million thoughts echoed in her head
Not one of them directed towards me instead
Where’d you go, oh brother of mine?
To a far away place I’ll never know
Our house doesn’t feel the same
Wi...
After Loreley and Aran finally finished baking the apple pies, she was sent out to their humble little baking stand to sell them. Aran got to work on preparing the other dishes that Loreley had not mastered well enough to help with. When she neared the door, she grabbed her jacket and slung it over a shoulder. She let herself out and closed the door behind her.
“Try to be back in four bells,” Da...
The smell of burning metal wafted up Loreley’s nose as she passed by the forge with a basket of oranges, cherry tomatoes, strawberries, and apples swinging in her hands. She could hear the clanking of metal on metal from inside the forge and many men’s voices. She placed her basket down on the dirt road, stopping to braid her dark hair. An animal’s shriek split the sky a few moments later. No one ...
Aran lifted the swaddled baby from Queen Ellowen’s arms. Her old friend said nothing. Dannon’s face was solemn as he watched his daughter be transferred from her mother’s arms to Aran’s. Loreley stirred in her sleep. Her big, golden eyes opened when Ellowen bent down and laid a kiss on her forehead. Loreley worked her arm out of the warm blankets sheltering her from the bitter cold of winter, plac...
Ellowen rocked from side to side gently and slowly, the baby in her arms cooing at the motion. She felt her daughter caressing her dark hair like she always did as she drifted off to sleep. Ellowen found it adorable. She began to sing to her daughter, her voice rising and falling like gentle waves on the sea. A siren’s voice, her mother had said before. The young princess’s tiny hand fell and dang...
The two were the same. The two were so different.
Writing, reading, seething, heaving.
Writing great.
Reading great.
Seething in pain.
Heaving pain.
Despite the similarities, they were individuals nonetheless.
One was content and knew what they wanted. One was happy and felt crowed with friends. One was insecure on the inside. One was gasping with anxieties. One was in the middle of ...
For as long as I could remember my dad changed into a wolf under every moon. It was quite the site to see until finally I became of age and it happened to me. It was as if the world became this brand new place; the sights, the smells, the tastes were all different. They were more pronounced. You could appreciate them better.
It wasn't until my first transformation that I felt it either; The pull...
The iron chain presses cold and rough in my clenched fist, a fragile thread keeping me alive. Fingers purple with lack of circulation, my eyes skim over the pale, thin sheet of paper written on in delicate crimson.
Soft, frigid breath brushes my neck as the faerie circles me, every movement filled with inhuman gracefulness.
“Do you understand the deal, human?” She steps forward, her voice smoot...
In the Kingdom of Heart when light became dark two women appeared from the bush.
Bouncing around with their feet on the ground they smiled and took a look at all the things they could see in the light of the fair full moon.
The two Tweedle sisters Tweedle Deedee and Tweedle Dumitra were the same in every sense, they ate the same way, talked the same way and dated the same women and men.
Not a ...
