The Monster Always Came At Midnight (Nonfiction)

My eyes fell on the red mocking numbers displayed from across the room. Silently screamed at me in volumes what I was about to face. I snuggled deeper into my comforter. It stuck out in my mind how the same things that comforted one during the day made the shadows that hid the unseen boogie mans... Sign in to see full entry.

The Runaway Boxers (Nonfiction essay/Humor)

There were two things Grandfather M loved. A funny story and a good joke. The only thing he loved more was a good story about a joke that wasn’t planned in the first place. These usually had Grandmother M as the unwilling star when the story was retold at family gatherings. Trust me the stories were... Sign in to see full entry.

My Own Worse Enemy

She puts me down, Not one good thing she has to say, Love is cutting me to pieces, I think it’s the highlight of her day. She’s always the one who tells me not to try, I’ll always fail, The one who convinces me I can’t be loved, I’m a fool to think other wise. Why do I let her do this? I’ll never...

I Always Knew You

I never saw your face… Never knew your name… Never heard your voice… Never felt your touch… Still I knew you before we ever met. You are the one who haunted my dreams… You are the prince who climbed my locks to stake your claim when I was just a little girl… The star that I followed to the ends of...

Dear Timothy

Dear Timothy, Why do you feel the need to hurt me? What did I do to merit such anger from you? I turned to you in my time of need, Trusted you with my most treasured gift, Now you just want to steal her from me, To pay back a debt that our mother has owed. I once held pride in my heart for the man... Sign in to see full entry.

When I Wasn't Looking

You slipped past most of my walls, Slipped under the wire, Was only expecting friendship, Never thought I’d get so much more, When I wasn’t looking you swept me off my feet. The wonderful words you have spoken, The way your eyes look when you say them, Makes me start believing that they might... Sign in to see full entry.

The Girl In The Mirror

Sad Eyes stare off in the distance, Remembering the young girl she once was, Wearing an empty smile one her face, Thinking she is hiding from the world her pain. Never realizing that every word she speaks drips of heartache, Every action she performs screams of the betrayals hurdled her way. No... Sign in to see full entry.

Tears In My Sleep

My mind replays every moment that led up to me telling him good bye, I watch it all in my dreams each and every night, Helpless to stop it, All I can do is stare in disbelief, As the stupid me does all the things I have now come to regret, I have left myself with nothing but a ripped up heart and...

Ready

In your eyes I’m lost, I don’t want to be found. With each kiss you leave on my lips I come alive, I can still feel them lingering after all this time, Gone is the memory of anyone who isn’t you. I live for each moment we have stolen from the world, Daydream about you when we are apart, Not a single... Sign in to see full entry.

Only Every Second

My heart breaks, Every day I face without you is a day filled with heartache, Every day filled with an ocean full of pain. I can’t find an escape, No matter how hard I try, No matter how fast my feet move, I can’t run away. I think about you only every second, Only every hour that fades away to a...

No One Hears me

I reach out to the world… But the world rejects me… Doesn’t want to even acknowledge the person who is me. Many walk on by… Right through the soul laying before them… No one hears me as I cry out in pain. Just another causality of society… I am riddled with the bullets of despair… Blanketed with the...

Mother Earth's Sorrow

Her tears fall by the buckets, Shattering into tiny water slivers before they are gobbled up by the hungry mouth of the greedy soil. Never to be seen, Washing over those who she’s long sheltered, Even as they devour her loving soul. Ripping and raging through her, Claiming more than deserved, Still... Sign in to see full entry.

In His Eyes

In his eyes… I’m the undeserving hero who holds the stars in my hands… I fight off the bad dreams with the sound of my voice… I’m able to put his fears at rest with a hug and a kiss. In his eyes… I can do no wrong… He accepts me for who I am… No questions asked… He doesn’t try to change me… Which... Sign in to see full entry.

Her Eyes Tell The Story

Her face is weathered with age, Her body now old and frayed, Most just disregard he as worn out and feeble, Not of her right mind, But if you look beyond the wrinkles, Look past the graying hair, Look past the absent smile she always seems to wear. You’ll see her true spirit, You’ll see there’s more... Sign in to see full entry.

Glass Houses

Living in glass house, My pain on display for the world to see Nothing to sooth the heartache that lives within me. I lie to myself, Make excuses for those who’s joy is tormenting me, Even when they continue to step on me. This house is of my own making, Built on what I have allowed to be, As I...
