Katrina woke up suddenly. She noticed that the sun was nearly at it zenith. Looking around, Katrina saw that she was lying face down in the grove of trees in front of her house. It took a moment before the experience from the night before had revealed themselves in her memory. Remembering the pain she felt in her head was a bittersweet memory because thoughts that were not her own flooded into her mind. Disconnected images of children being slaughtered, their parents being killed, and various other scenes of death and evil acts against the innocent shone brightly in Katrina's mind's eye. The person who committed these crimes was never f

Early in the 21st century scientific exploration had been deemed only of importance on the surface or under the waves, and only if it could show appreciable results that would benefit man at that time. Any dreams of off-world expeditions were relegated to those of children that still had access to comics and science fiction books and magazines. Adults had become too jaded to

the song of the birds.
may the soft clicking of
the woodpecker act
as our metronome,
a sweet mockingbird
will act as our demure,
yet beautiful,
concert mistress.
do not dare leave out
the tittering of an excited blue jay
who hops along his music stand
demanding the solo.
or the cranky old owl
who is forced to act as our baritone.
wise eyes blank for he
has memorized his part
since birth.
a sweet harmony of tradition
innate and pure,
resonates in my head
and within my heart.

The Broken Pieces of My HeartMy heart is broken like glass shattered and falling to the floor.The Broken Pieces of My Heart1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
I hear them crack and burst as you step across them as if they weren't there.
My empty shell crumpling without my joy, hope..., and happiness.
My insides twist and burn from it's loss... the loss of you... the loss of trust.
My anger is bitter and painful.
My tears a torrent flood.
You look past it as if it's not there.
It happened. And it matters.
It's ingrained in my memories as if burned by a hot iron.
Bringing flames to my emotions...
Hatred and thoughts of banishment towards you.
Hatred for myself for still loving you...
Love for the the one thing I have of yours
The best part of you... Our Boy....

A world of hellish thoughts.
Welcome, to my world.
A world of envy and supressed emotions.
Welcome, to my world.
A world of being cast away and forgotten.
Welcome, to my world.
A world where, no matter how much I yell, no one hears me.
Welcome, to my world.
A world of sadness, darkness, nothing.
Now, Welcome, to my new world.
A wolrd of miraculous mircles.
Welcome to my new world.
A world where all of the pople I used to envy now envy me.
Welcome to my new world.
A world where I am equal.
Welcome to my new world.
A world of confidence and good thoughts.
Welcome to my new world.
A world where I can be

is in the right place.
But sometimes my head
Is in the wrong space.
I'd give my life for you.
I know you think 'It can't be true.'
I feel like I've known you forever.
I think that we always were together.
Maybe I've never met you before.
But I think I've known you, that's for sure.
I don't know your face.
I don't know your space.
But I know with me, that's your place.
When you feel down.
When you feel out.
When you feel you need me.
I'll be there,
So we can share.
Yes, we do make a pair.
I know you name.
I know your game.
I know your fame.
But I don't know what makes you tick.
But still, above all you

"Do you see do you see them?
They are there on the edge, just outside of view.
Damn it! Why can't you see them!
They're staring straight at you!
Just turn a little bit so you can see better
No, just a little more, almost there
Ha! See, in the distance I told you!
Now you see them stare?!
No? What do you mean!
Just squint a little more
Now do you see them!
Caw caw caw
There look!
I can hear them now too!
Why are you looking at me like that?
Right
you've got no clue.
Look! Stand where I'm standing
Now look straight ahead
Now look and LISTEN!"
Why do you converse with our dead?

Butterflies Are FreeButterflies Are Free1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
if butterflies are free
then paint me the
colors of the rainbow,
give me the wings of
the earthly angels
and allow me to escape
from my mortal binds.
if butterflies are free
then kiss antennae
to my forehead
and find me a lover
among the gardens and gardens
of daisies.
if butterflies are free,
then sprinkle sugar
on my tongue and lead me off
to the heavens with the
wind beneath me.
i have no need to be tied down
while my heart flutters to the sun.
My heart is a butterfly,
so let me be free.

Your sweet voice enchants me
but I do not dare reveal myself.
I love you from the grass
hoping one day
you'll see my face...

The warm sun welcomes me
as I stretch my wings,
embracing the warmth.
Your beautiful face inspires me;
until I see it I remain speechless.
My voice is for you, Lily,
and one day I hope you'll see that.

What We WERE...You're the only one that has my heartWhat We WERE...1 year ago in Songs & Lyrics More Like This
You have your own little part.
Yeah you, had it from the start.
You made my thoughts restart.
I look at the world a little differently, now
Don't know what you did, or how.
But you did it, so take a bow.
Does this mean that this is the vow?
You have the key to my heart,
Please don't rip it apart.
I'm telling you from the start,
Or to the moon you'll depart...
You're the only one that has my heart
You have your own little part.
Yeah you, had it from the start.
You made my thoughts restart.
So here we are, together forever,
Nothing could rip us apart.
Tied to the hip, where we sit

Love is like a roller coaster ride
There will be lots of fights

Sometimes you can be on top of the world
You found your boy or girl.
But in second it could die,

You might even cry

Afraid, Katrina stared down the undead woman. Panic and fear wanted to take control but Katrina wouldn't allow the emotions to dictate her actions. Slowly moving towards the woman Katrina kept her eyes locked with the other woman's eyes.
"What do you want with me? Where is the child that was with me? What have you done to the family who lays here? Answer me," spat Katrina.
With a laugh that sounded like a loud sinister echo, the decomposing woman responded, "It is none of your business young one. It is our concern and no one else's. They add to our own collective power in the netherworld. Soon we will be able to break free of our bo

Waking up with a start, like I usually do; I looked around my bedroom from the comfort of my own bed. I felt completely safe from the world. The heavy cloth drapes shielded my room from the harmful daylight sun. Still half asleep, I expected my mother to start yelling up the stairs for me to get out of bed and take hold of the day.
Taking a deep slow breath I realized where I was. The memories of the last month of my life came rushing back to me like a bad dream taking over a peaceful slumber. Yet as the memories of the night before came rumbling into my consciousness like a pleasant dream, shoving the last month's bad moments away fro

All The Lonely Times And DifferencesAll The Lonely Times And Differences11 months ago in Short Stories More Like This
A child looks out the window wondering what it's like to be out there. His entire life, he grew up alone. He didn't have very many friends, so he didn't know what it was like to have and share special memories with special people. Nobody in his life was special to him, not even anyone in his family. To the child, they were just regular people. It's really lonely not having anybody special in your life. When you cry, nobody hears you. When you laugh, there's nobody to laugh with you. There's only silence and the occasional echoes of your own voice. This is why the child wondered if the outside world was diff
