Writing Trouble.

So I'm getting pretty close to bringing Missing to an end, and unfortunately I feel I could have done a far better job at writing it this time around. I did really like the direction it took this time, but there's quite a few scenes that I feel don't really fit amongst the rest and I want to fix them, make them belong, but I don't

know how to do that.

The first scene, as well, really bothers me. I… Continue

October First

It’s been one month,
Two weeks,
And three days
Since I kissed you.
Your taste,
I’m no longer familiar with.
Your smell,
It makes me dizzy no more.
What is left now?
Just a memory.
The problem with it?
The longer I keep remembering,
The harder it gets forgetting.
I do wish,
For one more kiss;
For one more touch.
Will I ever slip?
It’s been one month,
Two weeks,
Three days…
I’m just fine.

The 101st Reason for Getting Into the Oldest Profession

I have been in what my mother refers to as the “shmate” business (retail clothing sales) ever since I could walk. And I’m pretty great at it if I do say so myself! My clients, my “girls,” all love me.

I’ll tell a client when a pair of jeans she has been coveting for

months makes her thighs look like the colonel’s drumsticks covered in

some weird blue batter, or that the simple black dress simply MUST be

bought (even if she has nowhere to wear it) because it is a staple…

An unfinished Entry

I wrote this for a Fan site of Harry Potter. I didn't finish it because I joined the contest in the last 5 hours.

I told the contest holder that I didnt finish it but she accepted it because I was the only one that submitted a comedy bit. I won too!! lol By Default though!

I do not own Harry Potter nor its characters just plot. (lack of plot lol)

I walked down the halls of my marvelously great school of Wizardry and fancy stick work(aka Hexwarts) when I was tripped!!… Continue

Unreachable

My simple stare:

Quiet, yet it screams.

Lost in sight,

Awaiting reply.

My simple stare: inexplicable, real, invisible.

My deepest thoughts:

Oblivious to everyone.

Forever like that they shall remain.

My deepest thoughts: inexplicable, real, unknowable.

My craved desires:

They’ve pushed my brain aside.

At times, they make me cry.

At times, they make me laugh.

But they always make me feel alive.

My craved desires: inexplicable,… Continue

Excerpt II Book II

With the boxes being reorganized, that was like the disorganization of the government for its negativity. Putting the boxes in some kind of order, that didn’t remove the weight of the boxes or their sizes from the garage, but it did shed perspective upon the situation. The government has all kinds of negativity associated with it, but if one could box up the different levels and…

A Glimpse into Haemahlen

“I could tell you in Haemahlen; well for the most part things were always good. But with the fall, even Haemahlen had become dark as well as Voldebrandt but not to its degree. Too, the Maetra had their affect and how they influenced the Council. But that was…

I sent this to the man I love to let him know what made him special to me. The fastest and shortest poem I've written.

To You

There is a place I know that exists

Its filled with the warmth of three gifts

These gifts are surely unique indeed

They are buried safe and deep within me

Its not as you may think it to be

Its not any special part of me

Its more of what has been given

It makes life worthy to live in

These gifts were given to me free

From a mans heart for me to see

The first was a smile…
