We said if we were single

When we reached a certain age

We would wed eachother

And we were on the same page

We never married another

And stayed friends with eachother

But we grew apart

As time went on

And we became strangers

I saw your name in the park

After our years together were done

We had not talked in awhile

But I missed your soul

I checked the sign

Hoping to reunite

Only to find a stone...

Twenty. Twenty years it’s been since that scrawny thirteen year old and twelve year old promised they’d find a way to make their fantasy a reality…

Now it was getting more difficult. A bead of sweat dripped down Adeline’s face as she rushed to meet her deadline. It had to be printed and done in three minutes. One more tap and… done! Sent to the printer. She grabbed it while it was still hot and ru...

“If I don’t date

Then we’re together”

The words were spoken

A cross of line

They were kids then

Not even they were teens

They grew up

Had there separate lives

They came back to talk

About the promise that was made long ago

One wants to date the other

The other isn’t sure

But say she can be

There platonic girlfriend

The other isn’t sure to believe her

She said girlfriend and yet platoni...

“I pledge myself.”

“And I pledge myself too.”

Those words were spoken by two immature and naive children, Jake and Hanson. They pledged together that no matter what, they would be on each others side.

They were best friends. They always hung out with each other. And after a big fight, they had decided to make things right be promising.

“That feels like something was released off my chest,” bre...

To keep a secret of our friendship from all our other friends when we were young

It’s a special friendship that nobody must know

Even though you, you go out with other people are loves and I go out with other people and leave my own life we are always secret friends

It’s hard to be somebody that you’re not to each other

It’s hard to be false and keep the pretense of truth

One day no matte...

Blood brothers

No other

Long time promise

Need to be honest

No longer children

Promise between them

Breaking promise

Feeling dishonest

But this promise

Continues to languish

Decision to break it

Committed won’t take it...

I used to have a piano that was light brown. It’s wood was worn and cracked and the seat squeaked as you sat down. It was next to the kitchen in the house I grew up in. I would get home from school, hang my backpack above the shoes and run to the piano. My mother would cook dinner in the kitchen and she would tell me songs she wanted me to play. I quit piano lessons a long time ago so I would do i...

The day started off normal enough, I went to my favorite coffee shop and got my usual coffee order of a honey & nut latte with almond milk. And took a seat at my usual coffee table. Feeling a little bored, I decided to scroll on my phone to see what's new. Shortly after my fifth sip of my coffee, I suddenly noticed that someone had sat down at the corner of my table. "Is this seat taken?" the stra...

a quiet sunny day everything was peaceful except for the fact there is a loud war cry from two 5 year old boys trying to kill to each other. A quick slash from one wooden sword to another it looks like a never ending battling between the two sides but eventually the battle ends with one left standing. "I win!" Fred announced, holding the tip of the wooden sword toward the fallen Marcus one the gra...

Lily and Emma were inseparable as children. Were one went the other followed close behind. Lily would spend days at a time at Emma’s house. They’d go to school together, and wreak havoc on the town side by side. “Those two girls are joined at the hip” everyone in town would always say at the sight of them cruising down the street in their matching purple bikes. Their baskets full of snacks they sw...
