Love Desire
I thought he was different
But he was not
He broke my heart
And I haven't forgot
He was kind
His love was fire
And now I’m afraid
To feel desire
He broke my heart
And I was the last to know
So I'll sit and watch as
She makes him feel low
She’ll break his heart
Like he broke mine
And when that happens
I’ll feel devine.
But he was not
He broke my heart
And I haven't forgot
He was kind
His love was fire
And now I’m afraid
To feel desire
He broke my heart
And I was the last to know
So I'll sit and watch as
She makes him feel low
She’ll break his heart
Like he broke mine
And when that happens
I’ll feel devine.

Secret love of mine
Secret love of mine, divine
Come to me, let me be thine
Never let me
Fade from thy light
This is my deep and secret plight
Don't let my heart
From thy seek flight
Free me from this wicked night
Let me make this promise now
I'll stay by you
As long as i know how
Come to me, let me be thine
Never let me
Fade from thy light
This is my deep and secret plight
Don't let my heart
From thy seek flight
Free me from this wicked night
Let me make this promise now
I'll stay by you
As long as i know how

unnatural heartbreak (a short story)
I look into the eyes of my love & I know that I have hurt her beyond hope for forgiveness. I see the tears running down her beautiful but pained face, the loneliness and anger in my Sariah’s eyes. I turn away & step into the shadows I have to hurt the person I love but I have to make my beloved hate me. I have to, there’s no other way.
I step deeper into the shadows wishing I could at least hug my love before I go I risk a look back & see my beloved weeping on the ground. A week ago I would never had done this, but I have to. I cannot bring her into this mess. She cannot know...

The Rebellious Wait (a short story)
I sat waiting, watching.
If he walked out we had won and the war was over. if he didn’t come out he was either dead or imprisoned to be questioned or tortured later. if he didn't come out we were all in danger.
The seconds ticked by a slow tick, tick, tick. i looked down at the watch he gave me. if he was not out in five minutes, we were to leave without him.
Tick, tick, tick.
He should have been out already.
Tick, tick.
I wish i knew what was going on inside.
Tick.
Than it happened.Fire seemed to explode from the...

The Meeting Two (part 2 )
...but father, I want to have him as a pet,” Jane complained. She knew that she wouldn’t be able to convince Aro to let her keep him as a friend, but she might just be able to to convince her father to let her keep Demetri as a pet.
“No,” Aro said forcefully, “I need him for my experiments.”
“Father,” Jane pleaded, “Aren't there a million humans of his age and gender that you could use?
“Yes!” Aro gulped. Jane knew in that one moment that Aro was lying, that there was something special about Demetri. She realized that she had him figuratively in a corner. He would...

The Meeting Two (part 1 )
The boy was about her age, twelve or thirteen. His hair was as black as the darkest night, plastered to his head with sweat. He was covered with cuts, some still bleeding, others weren't. The smell of blood was seeping dangerously across the small room and closer to her. He would be an easy snack. It would take less than three-hundredths of a second for her to be on top of him and have her teeth into his flesh, but Jane knew better. Her father would know if she so much as put a finger on him. Aro wanted him for experiments, and he was unpredictable when angry. He claimed the boy was human,...

Deep Realities (a short story)
It was just another hot day in a succession of the many hot days of my childhood. The sun baking the cotton in the fields. the air seaming to boil.
The slaves working ever hard in the fields as I watched them from the main house.The way I watched them was like a bored person watches bugs crawl across the dirt.
I was higher than them, more human than them... or so they told me.
My father, the owner of the plantation and all the slaves, man, woman, and child, always told me that those who weren't one hundred percent white weren’t to be trusted. They were feral...

life
Life defies all logic
All hope
All reason
Death is undefined
Marked only by a beat
Once it ends
We leave life
Leave the known
Enter the darkness
Cross the oblivion
Meet the void
We fear death because
We don’t know
What we’ll face when we meet it
And meet it we will
All hope
All reason
Death is undefined
Marked only by a beat
Once it ends
We leave life
Leave the known
Enter the darkness
Cross the oblivion
Meet the void
We fear death because
We don’t know
What we’ll face when we meet it
And meet it we will

The Morning's Fog
fog covers great lands

The House
The fire burns the house,
leaving a shell of the memories it held.
Broken, like the family it once held.
A pile of char, never again to be home.
Abandoned, never to be loved again.
After all, who loves a piece of charred wood?
Nobody.
The house failed,
was lost to the flames.
Or was it the people who failed?
Was if life?
Is the house just another casualty in this twisted game we play?
Is the boy that never escaped a casualty?
Why, why should it be that way?
But it is this way
And it will never change.
It is and...
