As the sky turned

Gloomy my smile was

Wiped away all my

Feelings came out to

Play as tears over

Took I felt like I was

Stuck with nothing

Left but a cut I stair

At it hoping my feelings

Stop but no I just feel

Like I’m going to rot...

“It’s not fear I smell, it’s future,” encouraged the scientist.

“No, I’m pretty sure it smells sweat, and it smells bad,” I disagreed.

I have been participating in a study attempting to prove that humans are also attracted to pheromones. That means I had to sweat profusely in a shirt that they will ask women to smell. I was a bit uncomfortable with that idea.

“You see how people get closer to ...

Berserker.

That’s what they call us. Famed for our savagery. Lauded for our reckless fury. Mythologised for our frenzied destruction.

We stride the fields of our battles, unleashing havoc; our howls, our mayhem, terrorising both enemy and ally alike. Do they see me as bear or wolf? It matters not, for what they see is merely the harbinger of their earthly departure. We are merely the bringers of...

His helmet rested against the wall, his heart pounding against his chest; fingers clinging to the gun, and his thoughts filled with prayers as his officer repeated the words.

“You’re going up top!”

He prayed with shaky breath as the sound of boots approached.

“Did you hear me Riggins? I said you’re going up top!”

“I … I can’t please.”

The officer’s hand grabbed his collar as he pushed his fac...

Its not fear I smell, it’s future

Even that sentence is complicated

I fear itself and the future

I didn’t realize how much I ran on that

Fear based ideology

Fear based choices

How do you even unlearn that?

I feel like this situation between the two of us is teaching me how to unlearn

Almost forcing the hand

My hand

To unlearn what my father taught me all those years ago

That’s why things are...

I have been resisting my true self for almost my entire life. It took a mental breakdown to force me to sit with the sadness, fear, trauma, to realize I have been forcing my existence.

It's like over all these years

I've been living with a tumor, that kept growing and growing because I knew it would hurt to go in there and rip it out.

Society will always tell you to be something you are not. Sink...

It is not fear I smell its future

I start sweating and feeling crummy, I close my eyes and breath in and I can smell the sweet aroma

The smell of fresh cotton

The feel of the sun beaming down on my face

The sound of the waves crashing into the rocks

Then I open my eyes and see that I am on my own

new start to my life

It is not fear I smell it future

I close my eyes again

and imagine my f...

It’s not fear I smell, it’s the future.

I used to have it all

A sign upon my wall

With my back against the wall

I fall

It’s too late for me now

I am broken

It’s something inside of me

Hiding from myself

It’s fear that I can’t separate

From my dreams

From my darkest desires

It’s here

Stay clear

Of me and myself

I cannot love without

My aching longing

Wading through

My residual fear

I hope I don’...

When I think about my life

The thought consumes my mind

My emotions start to take a turn

And tears start to fill my eyes

What if I can’t reach my dream

What if it’s not within my reach

Is my destiny meant to fail

Will rage echo off my screams

My senses flare at the idea

And I start to no longer feel secure

It’s not fear that I smell, it’s future

And the pain that I may endure

For if my fu...

“It’s not fear I smell, it’s future.” She said this with a big smile on her face, standing in front of a whole crowd filled with black gowns.

She came up, and I hugged her, both of us wearing black gowns, I couldn’t believe it we were graduating.

“I’m just Glad I have you, I know I don’t say it a lot but there.”

“Awh, Luke, I didn’t know you were such a softie!” She lightly punched

“I didn’...
