The night, I literally met night..
The sun melted into the horizon, its final glow brushing the tops of trees. The heat of the day relented as the cool breeze of night began to seep in. I stood on her balcony, watching the first stars prick the indigo sky. Tonight felt different, though I couldn’t say why. It wasn’t the kind of night where darkness merely blanketed the world; it was something alive, something with weight.

If you know...
I once loved a man you know... He made me smile, he made me glow, But you what happens when he does go, He leaves a wound, colder than snow.

Dear Family (a.k.a. The Mess Makers, The Dirty Sock Hoarders, The Agents Of Choas),
Dear Family (a.k.a. The Mess Makers, The Dirty Sock Hoarders, The Agents Of Choas), After years of dedicated (and exhausting) service, I’m officially resigning from my role as Chief Cleaner of All Things, as well as the finder of lost objects, and the eternal defender from rodents, maggots, and cockroaches. Effective immediately, I am stepping down from my responsibilities of collecting manky dishes from bedrooms, guessing at the origins of sticky substances, and endlessly screaming, “The laundry basket is RIGHT THERE!”

The monster she made
The river ran backwards on the day the Queen vanished. It was a chilling omen, one that sent ripples of fear through every village in Appleton. It was an ancient prophecy that many spoke of, but many saw it as a hoax, and now, even the sky, usually clear and blue, grew shrouded in dark clouds as an unnerving quake spread through the land. The disappearance of the queen wasn’t merely a political crisis; it signalled a change so deep that even the magic of the land acted strangely.

A Fishing Trip To The Abyss
The sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm orange glow across the water as we set sail aboard my grandad's old fishing boat, The Albatross. I wasn’t quite sure how I ended up here. A last-minute trip with my old friend, Sam, had pulled me away from the comfort of my couch and into the embrace of the open sea. The idea of fishing sounded quaint enough, and it was about time I got off that sofa and stopped moping at a recent breakup, though I suppose the lingering heaviness even the sea breeze couldn't whisk away.
