The Two Hearts - Original Writing She walked endlessly down the shore, the sea mocking her conscience. She hears the waves whispering its verdict that she’s wrong. She cannot cry any more for the sorrow she feels is too profound, too deep. She looks up and sees the scattered clouds partially dim the littered stars, tormenting the knowledge that she could never have the love that she had and lost. She sees the crescent moon staring down at her with pity, reminding her of the warmth and gentle

In this latest installment of college-age church dissatisfaction, I'm trying the online sermon route today. There's one obvious pitfall here though- unrestricted reign of my distractibility. I'm still listening to the sermon. It's just paused for now, while I'm reading the Creation vs Evolution essay posted on the site of the Emerg Doc referenced as a sermon example. Well-written, balanced stuff, and encouraging to realize how long ago it was written, even if I disagree slightly with the conclusions
The sun was halfway through its descent of the Transylvanian sky by the time Arali broke through the tree-line, six days after her departure. For this, she was grateful; she was in no mood for the questions she knew those of her blood would pose. In the clouded sky, a gyrfalcon circled, scouting, before swooping into a sudden dive to glide low over the lawn. Arali smirked at the timing, suspecting she already knew the contents of the message it carried. Nevertheless, after stabling her horse, she
The Oddly Shaped Box – Module 5 Assignment Jade stepped lightly on the attic ladder rungs. She tried to keep the loud creaking noises to a minimum. No one was home. it wouldn’t have mattered anyway. The attic was foggy from dust, and the fragrance of candles, old newspapers, and pine permeated the air. From the window a beam of light in the odd shape of an obelisk washed across the wooden floor and landed directly in the corner. Jade was drawn in that direction, not knowing why. She thought that

Eulogy for Grandmother I looked at myself in the mirror. I noticed the lines of my face and the curve of my neck. I looked down at my hands remembering the moment I first realized that they looked like hers. Long, thin, delicate hands perfect for playing the piano or braiding cornrows. All my life I had not noticed until the day I sat at her bedside holding her hand in mine. She had told me that she was not afraid to die. We sat in silence for a long time, sometimes sharing a stare and a smile
Then she looked at me. I thought that she was looking at me for the first time. But then, when she turned around behind the lamp and I kept feeling her slippery and oily look in back of me, over my shoulder, I understood that it was I who was looking at her for the first time. I lit a cigarette. I took a drag on the harsh, strong smoke, before spinning in the chair, balancing on one of the rear legs. After that I saw her there, as if she'd been standing beside the lamp looking at me every night.
The sun has going down, yet I still can look through her mesmerizing eyes pleading to me for the nth time. Hope this is not true, hoping that all of my statement is nothing, like I just want to tease her with my joke, one of my really bad joke, and after that we could be all together and feel the other presence as always. But these 3 years we had shared together, all moment we could not forget easily, will become our last secret, which others wouldn’t know. Nothing had come from my mouth, as well
Everyone is faced with trials and tribulations throughout their whole life.

"I love you, Allie!" Mark's voice came through the trees. Even through the pounding hooves and sound of the ultralight, the words were surprisingly distinct. Allie reached the edge of the dense woods and slowed accommodate the thickening of branches and brush. Jay tried to keep up, but began to lose sight of them as they zigzagged through the woods. "Allie! Wait!" he called. Shock of shocks, she stopped. The pack horses crowed in around her. The ultralight swooped past at about the same time Jay

I have 2 big sisters, Elizabeth and Jodie. Eli is 5 and Jodie is almost 2 years older than me. My father had raised us alone, because my mother was died when I was 7. The days that time were really hard for everyone. She was very cheerful and kind. All of my memories what were made with my mum are precious still now.

About being unable to spend every night with her, he was sorry. About her being confined to the hospital, he was sorry. He was sorry that her fever never left 104.9 degrees fahrenheit and he was sorry that all he could ever do was hold her hand and wait for her body to heal. There was so little he could do, and now there were only two words that described him: desperate and helpless. Roy rested his head on the edge of the bed. It wasn't a coma she was in, per se, but it was still pretty damn dangerous
The road exploded into a collision of dust and air with each step that she took back to that flimsy house, with that thatched, broken roof, where souls are broken, with only a flicker of light guiding her in the ebony blackness of despair. Darkness engulfed her, as she slithered into the house, hoping, praying, begging that no one saw her. Yet to her dismay, he stood inside, a ferocious, untamed tiger waiting to pounce. This is my chance, my chance to stand up to him. Yet, before she could conjure

Klarissa stirred her spoon in wide circles, watching her cereal-islands flood. She picked up the newspaper, skimming the front page article about the Orochimaru—the famous black-turned-white pop singer. She popped off the cap to her sharpie, drew a speech-bubble, and scribbled, "I like little boys," inside. It was quiet. The clock ticked. One of the tenants upstairs was fighting with their spouse again. Klarissa set her head down in her arms, and shut her eyes tightly. She wiped down the counters
