Otherworldly Memories Part VII: The Dark Son
- Otherworldly Memories Part VII: The Dark Son -
It was a period of war and conflict in the lands of Eriu, for the tyrannical king Bres had been cast into exile from the kingdom of the Tuatha de Danann over which he once reigned. It is said that his rule of terror lasted for seven years, but seven years to Elfin kind is a long period of time indeed for any ruler to reign, especially one given to great cruelty! Though some argue his reign was longer, and that it was only in the last seven years of it that the worst things happened under his monarchy. Time for me during those years...

Stay positive
It’s hard to stay positive, When it seems that you’re only alive to see your downfall.
To feel as if this heart that has been abused and broken so so many times,
to a point finally ending it all seem like your only way out,
Feels better then feeling as if you’re not meant for love or to be loved.
To suffer from this weight you put on yourself to not feel like the disappointment in your family.
To feel as if you should be the provider and give your all to those that could care less about how you are deep down.
To feel as if your life is spiraling...
To feel as if this heart that has been abused and broken so so many times,
to a point finally ending it all seem like your only way out,
Feels better then feeling as if you’re not meant for love or to be loved.
To suffer from this weight you put on yourself to not feel like the disappointment in your family.
To feel as if you should be the provider and give your all to those that could care less about how you are deep down.
To feel as if your life is spiraling...

Otherworldly Memories Part V: The Two Kingdoms
- Otherworldly Memories Part V: The Two Kingdoms -
The years passed swiftly following the advent of my transformation, a thing that became over time, to me both spiritual as well as physical. I began to practice with and hone better the use of my enhanced third eye, and the mechanical augmentations felt for the most part as natural as my biological attributes. During certain months, I would retreat unto the tower at Ynys Gwydr in order to avoid causing any sort of distress when I trained myself both physically and mentally to become more at one with the body I now possessed. It...

Before it all went to Shit, character assassination, and good bye.
10/ 3/21] This is not the first time I've heard "Targeted like this". I'll just leave that lay for a while. I my experience the people you find the most annoying tend to be just like yourself. Yah, that's just gonna lay there as well. You sound just like someone I know that feels threatened [my word]. 2 women that say they've been targeted. 2 women with the same sexual desires that voice those desires from polar opposite perspectives. 2 women that have de-activated their accounts temporarily. 2 women that are really protective of their emotions. 2 women I like/ love/ something completely...

The Requiem of Suzanne
I sat in the shower this morning, with my head against the wall as I breathed in the steam, and all I could feel was nothing. And all I wanted to feel was everything.
Sometimes when I walk too fast I catch glimpses of you
In the back of my mind, staying hidden like you are prisoner to my brain, doomed to spend eternity inside of a grieving mind.
I cleaned your house last week, and I could feel you inside of the air; the stillness and the quiet.
As if you weren’t inside of that brown cardboard box,
Your essence shoved into such a small vessel.
I re read...

Bereft
People are odd creatures filled with a myriad of idiosyncrasies.
First perception of nobility lost, the true character emerged.
I would say I’m surprised but humanity has taught me too well what people are capable of.
Ruminating in my disappointment is nothing I aspire to, moving on the logical choice.
I find traces of the one I lost in those I entertain, but it’s very faint.
I seek what was lost however pale imitation are all that I’ve found.
Nothing becomes real because no one is him.
Almost...

Kiss Me
They say a kiss seals two souls for that one single moment in time.
I'm screaming inside, I want mine.
A time stopping, heart racing, pain erasing kiss.
Long, gentle, and passionate.
Is this really a feeling one can get?
A fantasy in my head, and now a moment of weakness.
A forbidden Temptation, mind blowing, passion is what I need.
Am I saying this right?
Will you just kiss me, tonight?
I'm screaming inside, I want mine.
A time stopping, heart racing, pain erasing kiss.
Long, gentle, and passionate.
Is this really a feeling one can get?
A fantasy in my head, and now a moment of weakness.
A forbidden Temptation, mind blowing, passion is what I need.
Am I saying this right?
Will you just kiss me, tonight?

Otherworldly Memories Part IV: The Evil Eye
- Otherworldly Memories Part IV: The Evil Eye -
So it came to pass, that after my marriage to the duchess Kar'mila Crom-Cruach, known to me more intimately as Kaitlin, was officiated and celebrated across all of the lands that belonged to us... we did set out with much ceremony and with a mighty host at our side for the island of Eriu, which was of old the ancestral seat of Kaitlin's people. They ruled there from a great city that had once been but a hill fort in the earliest of days, and the name of that city was Tara... the same as the great hill upon which it lay. Many peoples...
