Passing
Would you wait in a field for me to appear?Or would you walk away because I’m not here?With a spring in your step or was it just fear?Did you ever care or was it just an idea?I don’t know but I can make a guessYou wanted something without pushing for itThought it would land inContinue reading “Passing”
It
I’m creeping up the stairsStill so lostWill you think its fair?Not the costWaiting for my chanceDon’t want thisNothing for you to glanceJust a hissBut soon I will strikeSay goodnightThere will be no fightSmiling at spitePrepare for my endStill drowningOut of time to spendNo accountingSo with your time now doneSaid nothingYou are just long goneStill running
Sands
Wednesday story time is here again. This is another longer story at about 7000 words and it’s also Sci-Fi. Not going to give any details because otherwise it’ll ruin the surprise. So lets just get right into it shall we? Water laps at Oliver’s torso, breaking against his body, sending spray high enough for itContinue reading “Sands”

It’s Wednesday, so that means story day! This time it’s a Sci-Fi story, set on an alien world, in the future, involving humans and an alien race. This story will be the longest I’ve posted thus far at around 7100 words. Because of its length I’ve had to put in a number of page breaks.Continue reading “Swarm”
Locked Eyes
