Sudden explosions
Beginning a new chapter
Welcome twenty fifteen

I feel it

I feel it when I wake up
And the sky is a violent shade of pink
As it celebrates the simple miracle
Of a new, untouched day

I feel it when I collapse onto clean sheets
After all the stains have seen washed away
And the scent of freshness lingers
Enveloping me completely

I feel it when she hugs me
Bigger, tighter, stronger
Like she doesn't ever want to let go
Because it's new to be wanted

I feel it when I make him laugh
And when it rains so hard and the thunder is so loud that the world sounds like it's collapsing
And when I hear songs that remind me life is beautiful
Even more when she sings them as loud and passionately as her lungs will allows
And mostly when we both sing them together

I feel it
This new sensation
I think it's called joy

Maybe when I'm old
And my skin is wrinkled
And my hair is starlight grey
I won't be able to look back
And tell of my grand adventures
Over mountains
Through caves
Under ocean depths
But at least I will be able to say
I loved well
And in the end
That is the greatest adventure of them all

Stars and a Sepia Sky

One Sentence Story

If I touch you I'm afraid the world might tear in two.

Wondering and Thinking

I spend my days wondering
And thinking
Of you
I spend my nights watching the stars thinking
And wondering
If you are
too

Creative Writing: Darkness and Light

Darkness came in secret
But obviously
He was an evident whisper
Like water so hot it becomes freezing
His gentle grip tightened
And I became ensnared

Darkness
A cloak of nothing
Nothing with nothing hands
Nothing hands that hold me tight
Nothing, Nothing, Nothing
How can I escape this Night,
This Nothing
This Darkness

I fought

I pounded on the Nothing knuckles
Squeezing me
I clawed at the Nothing fingernails
Pricking me

But Darkness is only defeated by Light
And Light cannot be found in Nothing

But as I struggled
I saw a glimmer
Small at first
But then thousands

Light in the Nothing?
How could this be?
But it was there
A sparkling invitation to Life

So the Light shone through the Darkness
And Darkness was defeated
For little did Darkness know
That Nothing is the place of the stars
Stars that give hope
And Light that sets me free
