The Music Box
It was Marie's sixteenth birthday and she was spending the afternoon before her ball with me in my wing of the palace. She had finally come of age and looked so lovely it was hard to believe this young woman had once been the little girl who loved to sit on my knee. "Come here Marie and sit by me. It is time to give you your birthday gift." She came over with a quizzical look on her brow. Her eyes lit up as I gently pulled her gift out of its velvet case. The Music Box: shrouded in mystery with its surreal beauty. "Oh grandmamma," she breathed and ran her fingers over t

Anno Mundi I have come upon this placeAnno Mundi8 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
By means of long forgotten roads overgrown with revolution
And in asseveration to the Gods of olde.
The bent forms of worshiping trees huddle in secluded cloisters,
Hissing and slithering up from fissured cracks in stained asphalt
To praise the light,
As the others concede to choke on cast shadows.
Consigned to abeyance, even the winds seem reluctant
To intrude upon the sacred stillness here.
The lethe touches of coarse undergrowth ink dewy masterpieces
of refracted lights upon my stripped feet and ankle

The Sea Of TranquilityI do not believe in sinThe Sea Of Tranquility9 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
I have been there before
I live life on a whim
I swim the shore of liberty
This is about delicacies
The lure of flesh
And the most delicate of seas
The salty taste of your skin
It is about touching
The inner core
And releasing all doubt
It is about being
In the ocean of love
I swim it willingly
In compliance of the laws
That deem truth the winner
And does not see my flaws
I am beautiful here
Where the waters flow free
I can be myself
I can be me
It is quite liberating
The refreshment is sublime
There is no time
There is only tranquility

Se was an outcast, she was weird
But there was not much that she feared
Until one day, cause of all the hate
She suddenly lost all her faith
She couldn't take it anymore
It was too much, yes that's for sure
The horrible things everyone said
Were definitely her cause of death

This song is for anyone
Who has lost all hope
Whose dreams are incomplete
For those who feel broke
Please just remember,
And what I say is true
There is someone who cares and,
You're perfect being you

Everyone was shocked and scared
Yes, suddenly everybody cared
But the ones who should've been bla

out the window let it
land on your head like waterballoons.
Open me up
and let the insides out because
I'm tired of being afraid to feel.
I want
your autum red hair and
your song, to be mine.
I want to listen to you cry too,
happiness
Make you pay for this pain by splitting
your heart down the middle
in horrible, irreversible, earth-shattering

I miss the lullaby
in your voice
I imagined when I couldn't sleep
I miss the sunshine

The Sacrifice of Young Hearts - Part 5 After the events of the night before Luciana felt exhausted and had slept the entire day, only to wake up that evening, finding herself safe laying next to Aralyn on the old bed. She yawned and pulled the blankets off of her, moving over to the window and glancing through the cracks of the wooden planks that covered them. She smiled lightly to herself before glancing back towards Aralyn, going back and shaking her to awaken her.The Sacrifice of Young Hearts - Part 52 weeks ago in Introductions & Chapters More Like This
"We're still safe, Aralyn." Luciana murmured, smiling as Aralyn returned an unsure smile back towards her. She sighed lightly, "I sure am hungry though. I suppose it is time to hunt again. Perhaps we can find food for you as well." She smiled back towards Aralyn and got back up of the bed.
Both Aralyn and Luciana made their way outside and moved towards the shoreline of the nearby lake not far from the farmhouse. Luciana stood there watching the moon and stars' reflection against the dark waters within the l

There I went, sticking my foot in my mouth. Stupidity, thy name is me. Of course, I didn't know my own name, so that didn't stand too well in my own favor.
"Okay, you say you know my name. What is it then?"
"Link. Your name is Link. I can't tell you any more than that," I said quickly, looking from him to the ground. A lie, but I didn't want to get in even deeper doo.

Moonlit Love, Starlit BeautyDrew walked softly across the beach. The soft Mexican sand warmed his bare feet, while the gentle Caribbean breeze cooled his bare chest and face. All the while, he cast a long shadow across the coast, as he stood silhouetted against the fiery glow of the setting sun. Eventually, Drew stopped walking, and simply turned to gaze out upon the vast sunset-laden sea. As he did, he eventually closed his eyes, and could feel a sudden serenity embrace his entire soul.Moonlit Love, Starlit Beauty3 years ago in Free Verse More Like This

Who To Marry...?Calvin- Despite the two's age difference, Anela and Calvin would make a great pair.

Goodbye SummerDrew stood at the kitchen counter, mixing ingredients together into a pitcher. As he did, the light of the setting sun outside glimmered through the nearby window, illuminating the entire room in its fiery glow. Smiling, as the light warmed him, Drew carried the pitcher over to the sink and filled it with icy cold water. Still bathed in the setting sunlight, he grabbed a nearby wooden spoon, and began to stur together everything in the pitcher, until the liquid inside of it began turning bright red in color, the same color as the evening sky. He then held it up to eye level, to examine the beverage.Goodbye Summer2 years ago in Short Stories More Like This

| Meteor Showers |♥ I sat up on the grassy hill, gazing up at the stars that covered the dark bleu sky. There was a small bay down the hill, so there was a cool breeze in the air, and it was quite chilly. I started to hear the sound of grass being stepped on, and some leaves crumbling in the distance. I heard it get closer and closer, and I looked over, and saw a pair of legs. I looked up to see the face of my lover, Edward Elric.

A sunset on a beach
Orange, yellow, and red streaks painted across the sky
Waves gently crashing upon the shoreline
Birds softly singing as they fly across the colours,

There's a cool breeze that harmonizes with the waves
I steadily sit myself down in the cool sand
