“We’ve got to go looking!”

“He’s been getting farther and farther away. Nobody can talk to him for more than 5 minutes now.”

“Now he’s gone! No one can find him!”

“No one can seem to get in contact with him either. I say we check the old woods, near the paths. He loved to go there when he was a kid.”

They set out on a manhunt.

But what I didn’t expect

Was to walk out into the city

(Inspired by this YouTube series I saw once, the first video is titled “being pretty” by the creator Dead Sound if you wanna check it out.)

She is pretty

He is pretty

They are a pretty family

She wears a mask of happiness

He wears a mask of happiness

They are a happy family

They have children,

A boy

and

A girl

The children start their own families

She is pretty

He is pretty

She wears a mask ...

The actors were tired

The writers phoned it in

The plot kept going back to

Where we’ve already been

The rumors were flying

The producers were pissed

Because the main character’s oomph

Was now totally oomph-less

A show that was once light

Dimmed into dark

Because the show’s star got depressed

And lost her spark

They didn’t jump the shark but

She was lost at sea

Now instead of enjoying t...

She’s smiling

And laughing

Her friend cracked a joke

She’s quick with her tongue, that one

So with her words she builds and builds.

She’s weird, she’s wild!

They say live in the moment,

They say that she’s the definition,

So fun, so spontaneous,

And I watch her,

With her blue eyes

And her bouncy curls.

I watch her like I’m in the ceiling,

Because even in a daydream,

I can’t face my face.

I watc...

They gaze into those eyes of hers; They only see the stars; they orate and smile, expecting reply, yet only hear the space between.

And when she talks, she doesn’t say; and when she walks, she doesn’t sway; further from edacious, she bore a soul impervious, with nothing to be said nor done to skew her empty heart.

Aji leaped at the man while the other three went for Theo and Aarti.

The man disappeared from his spot and reappeared behind Aji. Aji gasped and managed to stop herself from falling. She spun around and growled at the man.

“You’ll never get close to me.” He sneered.

Aji leaped at him again and he disappeared. Aji stumbled.

Suddenly, Miles flew at the man and brought him to the ground.

“Pathet...

“I still don’t trust you, Ken. Not after what you did.” Aji said.

Ken sighed. “I told you, it was my dad that did that. I would never do anything to hurt you.”

Aji growled. “Really? Because I’m pretty sure I left YOU up there. No one else.”

Ken grabbed Aji’s hand suddenly. He fell to his knees.

“Stop being dramatic.” Aji rolled her eyes.

“I’m-“ Ken froze.

Aji rolled her eyes again. “Get up, ...

The sun beams down harshly upon the bloodied terrain. Several youth rush to the weapons scattered around the crumbling buildings. A sword on the ground, an axe embedded in the wall, all are swiftly taken.

The village of brackenbriar has a sacrificial ritual - made every sixth year - in which twenty one young adults are “elected.” Aged sixteen through twenty seven, the “elects” are forced to fight...

She runs from the shadows following after every corner

She wakes every morning with a start

When she’s alone she gets a little shiver

And she always knows when’s she’s being watched.

You walk down the alley way,

Your eyes playing sly.

You’ve got your hand on some pepper spray

And more shady surprises.

You’re on your way to meet a friend

Who says she’s got some news.

Could this shiny new boy with...

They were two young lovers. All they ever wanted in life was to live as they pleased and have the world see them as what they truly were: really truly infatuated with each other. Despite this, it seemed society saw them as nothing more than children playing at a relationship. It caused them to fracture to the point where they didn’t even know what love meant anymore.

I never meant for it to be th...
