Frozen Eternity prompt

Recently, I received a writing prompt from Justina at Welcome to My Imagination that is, to be cliché, to die for. Seriously, this is the prompt she gave me: To reach out would mean to die, but to never speak would mean a frozen eternity. I spent 10 minutes with this gorgeous prompt and came…

The God Connection

Rain slices through the light. Lightning flashes in the night. Night falls on a single moment in the life I was, in who I was in the cold before. Before I found myself lying here. Before I found myself dead. Dead and unburied, my ashes spread nowhere, each grain carrying across the wind same dreams.…

Breach

I want to commit suicide. I want to die. I want to let go. But I can’t. Something won’t allow it. Never could. Something won’t let me. Never will. I won’t say it’s God as the Devil is said to prolong suffering. If I must continue when I wish it to end, how can I…

The Dead Don’t Cry

He’ll remember them without ears, as no one would listen, hear him, when there was something he needed to say. He’ll remember them without eyes, as no one could see into him when there was something he couldn’t say. He’ll remember he didn’t belong because everywhere felt wrong, and he was wrong to be with…

The Last Remnants Of A Dying Mind

Chasing beams of light scattering across the globe. Fading into existence, having had their chance at tomorrow. Oh where art thou, that which I know of not? Lost in the confusion I know of not. The last remnants of a dying mind. Facing into the light. Traveling into the distance. Each step toward oblivion, each…

Every Day Die

I used to try to live until I realized my life ended years ago. I’m already dead and dying once again. And in death, when facing death, I just want to smile one last time, laugh one last time, make someone happy one last time, create one last perfect memory with those whom I love,…

Prayer For The Never Lived

I wish I had time for my entire life but I’m living in an empty shell. A step away from escaping Hell at the will of a merciful knife. One second here, one second gone, welcoming a brand new dawn. A divorce from Agony, my faithful wife, and Silent Suffering, my beloved son. Concede to…

Here Lies…

I can never be happy as long as happy people tell me that they don’t want me to die, that I can’t allow myself to die, that I can’t allow myself to find my happiness. So here I fade away. I don’t want to talk to understanding people who don’t and can’t understand me, only…

Love Of My Lady

She waits for me, beckons for me, desires me to go with her. Her innocent eyes, that precious smile, soft hair curling on her petite shoulder. It would be so easy to give in to her, give myself over, answer her call. Open the door to another world, one without pain, without noise. All it…

Love Mourning

“A life well spent is one spent preparing for death,” is what I’ve learned. So I live for my demise otherwise I’ve no motivation to live, is what I believe. But I come upon you and you me, suddenly reasons change as I live for your smile. When you are saddened my heart wilts at…
