Life as I see it!
She hadn't felt that kind of joy in a long time,That sudden spark of energy that seemed to fill her up.Her heart had yearned for that spark,Yearned and yearned until all had seemed lost,And yet, there she was today, all healed up. She had resigned herself to a life,A life of loneliness, and a life... Continue Reading →
For a long time now, she had missed it all,Never thinking about it, never forgotten.A whole other life, a whole other chapter,Memories ignored and stories tossed away. And yet, today was different,Almost like a walk down memory lane.All the ignored feelings taking centre stage,Reminding her of all that had been missed out. A chapter in... Continue Reading →
It only ever took her a second,A second to close her eyes and remember.Remember every touch, remember ever memory,Remember them all, never forgotten. The days since hadn't mattered,The days before almost forgotten,For the time together were centre-stage,All consumed by him. Life had kept going,Never taking a pause.And she had stayed right there,Still waiting to feel... Continue Reading →

She finally had it in hand,That one thing she had been looking for.Something she had yearned for, all her life,Something that had kept slipping away.

She stood in front of her shelf, looking,She had stood there now for almost an hour.What lay before her now was a simple choice,A choice between the pages. There were a thousand options to choose one,Any world she wanted, Any era she picked.All it would take was one-touch,One-touch to get transported. The magical world of... Continue Reading →
He had sat there for awhile.Five years ago when she had sat him down,Never moving, not even daring to blink,Awaiting the time when she'd finally walk in. When she wasn't looking, he'd secretly move,Just a little, just that unnoticeable little bit.Only so that he could see her better,Watch the beautiful angel go about her day.... Continue Reading →
She had never expected to hear from him,After all those years,She had. never expected him to reach out,And yet, there she stood, take aback.

As her hands stretched out, she let herself feel,Feel the music run through her,Her eyes closed of their own accord,As her mouth formed the words that led her mind into oblivion. She had always had but one release,A release that always worked.That worked in making her let go,Let go of all everything on her mind.... Continue Reading →
The pain and become almost monotonous now,It almost felt like only the paint was permanent.Despite it all, despite the time and despite the effort,Nothing had changed the outcome at all. He had started fresh, right back at the beginning,He had refused to give up, hoping for the best.And despite never having seen. change in the... Continue Reading →
