The Living Room

I jolted from my sleep, hastily sitting up from the feeling of a cold, slimy hand on my shoulder, yet when my eyes shot open and darted around, I didn’t see anybody there.


ā€œ_Maybe my mind is making things upā€¦ā€ _I thought to myself.


But, what I did see was the fact that I was sitting in a homey yet outdated living room that looked nothing like the one in my apartment at all. When I breathed in,...

Aftermath

The cold is bone chilling. So very cold. I can't work up enough moisture to clean the blood off my sword and parts of my armor. Moisture is freezing in seconds. We were decimated. My band of soldiers could not match the fierceness of our enemy. The danger is over for me. The horses were killed or taken by the French.Ā  I am moving aimlessly away from the battlefield, with only the company dog takin...

The Godly Place

ā€œWhat is this place!!ā€ Said Kyle as he examined the clouds. He was on marble stairs that were above the clouds. Downwards was unknown but upwards led to a golden gate.


Kyle walked up scared of falling down and yet to continue towards the gate. He reached them and saw a massive temple with pillars of white quartz. He walked towards it and saw gardens and beautiful buildings on the side of the pat...

Positions

It’s like I’m standing at the bottom of a hole, the shovel in my hands… my grave.


It’s like I’m jumping from an airplane without a parachute… my death.


It’s like I’m hanging from the edge of a mountain… I’m so scared to let go.


What if I fall?

What if I can’t get up?

What if I don’t make it?


It’s so hard just to be okay.

It’s so hard to smile.

They stare,

I swear I’m fine.


I hurt- the throbb...

šŸŒ A New World šŸ—ŗļø

Alison didn’t know what had happened. One second she was looking through her mother’s, who had just passed, things, and the next second she’s waking up in a mysterious place filled with colors. It was so alive.


Where was she?


She took one step. And another. And another. Several steps later, she came to a giant rainbow, tie dye like mushroom that had a door on it.


She spotted another. And anot...

The Forest Takes You Far

I decided to run. I took an old vehicle 1400 miles from home to explore the terrain. I needed out; this wasn’t just a split second decision. If I were to just take off with no plan I would probably find myself in an even worse situation than I started in. No, I saved up the money, quit my job, waited until my apartment lease was up, and prepared with supplies and training. The wilderness is daunti...

Clubbed

The voices all around me laughing and bawling over the repetitive dull thud from under our feet. It makes me think we are on the floor above a club of the kind I haven’t been in for nearly two decades.

The screws on the walls which hold the corrugated metal panels in place are buzzing loudly in time to the music. It’s a harsh tinny sound like an annoying alarm and I long to reach over and switch ...

The Strange Journey

I felt wet drops on my face,it woke me up . I found myself in an unfamiliar place that I never saw before. I looked puzzled I didn’t know where I was and I didn’t remember when I got here.I was in an old dark cave which looked like it was made thousands of years ago. I got goosebumps,up my spine I was shivering. There were cobwebs everywhere in the corners of the cave and weird writing on the wall...

Mama

Mama has been sleeping a lot…

When she wakes up

Not knowing who we are

We all look at each other with hurt in our hearts

Mama forgot my name, the girl that made her a mom

It broke my heart that day

I know she knows who I am, I think?

Dad says it’s the meds

Mama is so thin and her arms are cold

Do you need your corn bag warmed up?

I know the pain it hurts

Time to check your blood and take some me...
