STORY STARTER
The head detective is retiring after fifty years of success – but they treat everything like a case to be solved.
Write a short story about the detective’s co-workers attempting to throw them a retirement party.
I Am The Voided…
Burn your lips into mine.
Oh obsession and lust
are a torment of the mind...
The sleepless nights
I cried insane.
In and out of
consciousness,
I’m never the same.
Black out sad,
in my broken state.
A heart of make
believe and long
lost fate.
I’m addicted to
the sour of his notes.
The unclaimed darkness
of rhythms wrote.
Stars thus fade.
As the clouds rummage
through what’s left,
in disdain.
So it seems,
the reality of what’s
right has left so
much wrong in me...
