I thought thatI would writeA poem about The feelings thatI have for youThere ain’t a momentIn the day that goes byWhere I’m not thinking About youEvery second of every minuteEvery minute of every hourEvery hour of every dayThat doesn’t go by without Having you on my mindWhen I first saw you, I was afraid to meet youWhen I first met you,I was afraid to kiss youWhen I first kissed you,I was afraid to love youNow that I fina...

Reaching you will unmake us,it is the end and start of our impossible divide,placing our every mistake in a clouded hourglassand hiding flaws in time's delicate folds.All of these moments have their own weightlike stones of different shapes and sizes,decorated in glyphs and runes of the languages we lost,each can build a road and towering castles for us one day.I've broken time for this,shards of space to be assembledunti...

I had turned sixteen and it was suggested by my father that I do something to give back to the community. It was decided for me that I should volunteer at the local retirement home.It started out just talking to the residents or walking with them. As I got to know some of them, I'd help them with meals and play games, usually gin rummy.One such resident was a veteran marine. He was strong and steadfast and you could tell...

Emma had listened to ‘Moments of a Welsh Village’ by her favourite author a thousand times. Well, not actually voiced by him, but by a cast of actors and actresses. The leading voice was of the best narrator, in her opinion, that ever lived. She even had the DVD of the movie, with the same actor playing the leading role, though in her mind, she didn’t think it was as good as the hypnotic voices that echoed in her psyche.A...

I may keep this all inside where my heart can still see you.In time I will becomemore dreamlike to you,more akin to abstract faithrather than flesh and bone.Maybe I'll last longer this way.You'll miss me the same way I'll miss you,it'll only be allowed to come in fragments.To pour over you as an undamaged coda.A fall breeze that will sweep your locksjust like my fingertips would,each strand was pure silk to me,the strings...

I do not burn among the flames.Where even the slightest proximityengulfed me in the everlasting blaze,where the heat sank through to bone,the soft and delicate marrow,to the anima that drives us all...I knew of true fire elsewhere,the purest form of liquid moltendripping from your exposed corebefore my throbbing flesh couldeven enter your own.All else before and beyond thatseems to pulse without meaning,an impassive lustf...

She arrives before he does, parking up on the third floor as it has the least amount of cars. She sends him a text.Third floorStaying in the car with the AC on full blast, she shivers, welcoming the cool air. It's only then she hears the roar of a motorcycle. It isn't just one but two.“Now he needs a bodyguard or something?” She mutters to herself, as she climbs out of the car as he approaches, she slams the door to make...

The dark language our bodies have learnedmay not survive beyond this night,this whirlwind of feral flesh, maybe that is the way we need it. You will ask if we are morethan a body ceaselessly penetrated,more than lustful vessels writhing.This is where the very soul is pierced,the vague entity that tells us this is some connective tissue that we are not meant to understand.We are lucky to toucheven for a little while.I only...
