Random Persephone Story, Part III

She jumped with gentle grace from her chair, and stood still once again. A cool breeze came from an old fan, and her carefree hair jumped as a fairy to dance in the wind. But her eyes and heart were far beyond the soft meadows and hills. The unmentionable fear was crawling silently through her [...]

Emilie Autumn

 
Music flew from the speakers. Breaking the air at the speed of sound, feeling the whole house with strident vibrations. Her voice, her violin, feeling the air he breathed, feeling the air I breathe. Filling the air that separates me from the screen. Darkness becomes electric, darkness jumps and becomes alive, darkness begins to dance and make [...]

Random Persephone Story, Part II

Sleep came with pleasant ease. Her soft green eyes were shielded by soft pale lids and long black eye-lashes. Her heart-shaped mouth closed in peace. Her body finally relaxed after what have seemed ages. Her left hand rested gently on top of the chair’s arm, exposing her pale wrists to the dim light of the library. Her [...]

Night Falls Fast

Night falls fast, as the last blue sky is murdered by stormy clouds. He sits by his window, contemplating the water fall.

For The Days of Yore

We have witnessed the stars fall one by one in the summer’s sky. We have seen rivers froze, and mountains break. We have seen all hell turn loose, and we have turned loose the swans. We have seen things no one would ever believe. The healing power of a hug, the magnificent embrace of a [...]

Too Close to Breathe

“I’m impressed”, she said.
“Why?”, he replied.
“Well, not too many guys do what you have done, or could actually keep on doing so. Besides, it is a nasty looking wound the one you carry.” Her soft smile glimpsing for a second.

Amber Sky

( Written between May 26, 2008 and June 15, 2008 )
 

The last purple sky slowly fades, the last shadows slowly creep into grey. A gentle piano whispers in the silent reverie, just like the sung of a Robin lost in the cold morning light. She gasps in her last moments of consciousness, her soft eyes [...]
