**The worst day of my life was the day of the funeral. **
****
My husband, Tarry, was the best partner I ever had. The brunette boy had that cute cheeky grin. He sat on one knee like he knew what I'd say.
That's how it began.
If you want to know how it ended, it was a week ago. I was crying in my empty room to a dusty old photo of him. His soft, gentle lips and his fluffy hair between my ...
My journey from the abyss was filled with fear and dread. Tired, driven to madness, and the hunger pains my insides. I pull myself into the pale moonlight, looking for the witch who summoned me. I see her, at the opening of my former prison. She seems lovely but I am ravenous, I am wary from the long road back, and the thirst has driven me mad. I must feed....
There are two graves—one I dug, and the other you did. Equally covered with the same amount of dirt, only unlike other graves, these don’t carry any roses or lilies, no pansies nor flowers of any kind. No, these grave are opposite from others in every way.
Problems tend to lead to yourself making wrong decisions, right? Everything is a choice. I could’ve chosen to not dig a grave so deep, but I ...
A pennyless man can’t buy me the world
Nor can a rich one
Only stories of gold
Can save me
A thoughtful man can’t buy me piece of mind
Nor can an ignorant one
Only gifts from the Heavens
Can save me
A helpful man can’t save the whole world
Nor can a helpless one
Only a fool so blind
Can save me
A living man can’t keep me alive
Nor can a dead one
Only a grave so bleak
Can save me
So if no other...
I’ve got nothing left, I am nothing, I’ve always been nothing. Like you said, I might as well not even be around.
Now that she’s in the ground, it’s where I belong, too. She was pretty, she was nice, she was charismatic, I was always the hanger on, the third wheel.
I’m wretched and decaying. I’m miserable and cringe to be around. You said it; I finally heard you. I believe you, you’re right. Let...
Words could never describe,
My everlasting love for you,
Like no other book would define.
The sky immaculate blue,
But now growing grey,
Like a storm coming in full view.
Not even when I pray,
On bended knee,
The storm remains to stay.
Never to be free,
I close my eyes and see your face,
Refusing to get up and flee.
The storm gathers at fast pace,
Suffocating my lungs,
Winds teari...
I tried but failed
It seems I always do
Survived and went missing for almost 2
I should have written, I acknowledge that
I’m sorry I went missing
I was not my self
My head was too focused on things of the past
My soul to broken but at least it had last
I haven’t gone cold yet
Not with all your smiles
I’ll try to open up more
So please forgive the vile person on the run
I didn’t mean to offend a...
Laying deep under ground the air grew thinner. The walls closing in on me, and my chest becoming tight. I could hardly think from all the commotion going on. The only thing I could do was scratch and kick until even a speck of light seamed through the thick layer of soil and muck. The desperation was unbearable, my finger nails bloody from tearing at the cloth of the coffin door. I was six feet un...
I sat at the edge of the universe with my mind below the waves, thinking of the summer months. Now, I light two candles in search of the reasons why you've left. One for me and one for you.
I believed we had more time, but it's evident that I was mistaken.
Not a day goes by without me thinking about your existence.
Your honeysuckle lips are too sweet to be neglected.
If you were here right now, ...
At 12 today my dads Uncle Freddy died from cancer.
He's sad.
I knew him and I've talked to him but I barely feel sad.
It seems inhuman to me to not feel anything about the death of a family member.
A member that watched me grow at every Christmas or Thanksgiving.
Now my family is sad.
I'm just sad about my dads state.
He told me, hugged me, and moved on.
He's breaking but won't show it.
N...
