I am the black night at your window. I am the stars in your eyes. I am the pain in your mind. I am your thoughts when you’re thinking and the tears in your eyes. I am the beating of your heart. I am the turning of your life. I am the breeze in your… Continue reading I AM

Somewhere far beyond the boundaries of human knowledge exists the guardian. It is a force so controlled from within itself it can never be damaged. It has a power so strong it can never be captured. With it, it carries a passion so deep that you’ll never find the bottom. And for a small few… Continue reading The Guardian

Missing Reflections

Writing Sparkle

A mirror looking one way reveals copper tears falling into a gold coloured vase. Through the crystal years I waited. Through the diamond nights I cried rubies, jewels, and emeralds that I once saw in his eyes. Sapphires that cut like daggers in a pearly white mist.

The Rain

  The forest looked different this morning after days of rain. The eerie feeling hadn’t washed away but instead was magnified by a heavy silence. The branches on the trees pulled towards the ground and with no wind to stir them it felt oppressive and suffocating. The small snippets of sky that could be seen… Continue reading The Rain

The follow story snippet was written in response to this month’s theme of contrast as well as the picture prompt below.

Interrogation

Writing Sparkle

The room is dimly lit by recessed lighting. Its dimmer switch is currently set to a low setting to draw little to no attention into the room. The walls are a dirty yellowish colour. They are bare, no clock, no pictures, and nothing decorative or inviting. Sydni is aware of hushed voices behind her talking… Continue reading Interrogation
