Yes, I am completely shameless.

I watch her grow; another victim of time’s cruel continuity.

Being her home becomes life’s truest purpose; my oasis full.

Dancing on a tightrope with fear.

Fear of watching her cross the finish line before me.

At least we got to dance.

You know what REALLY grinds my gears?

That the em dash has become a flag for AI writing — we live in dark times.

IS NOTHING SACRED??

"People don’t change. All they do is find new ways of convincing you their old habits are in the past."

This was a dark one. You've been warned.
#writing #shortstory

You are the one who let me inside of your walls first, you led by example.

You took a chance on
me, even though you had every reason to protect yourself.

Your courage provided the kindling
which allowed our fire to grow, and my wounds to heal — wounds you had no hand in creating

#poetry

Your ability to be vulnerable, with the rotten hands you’ve been dealt, unconsciously gave me permission to do the same.

For that reason, I am the lucky one.

A story of a young fairy’s broken ties with tradition to forge her own path.

Just a friendly reminder that your desire to have a bookshelf with a rolling ladder is valid. Don’t allow anyone to disrespect you by telling you otherwise.

In the spectrum of all human emotion, core or nuanced, what is your favorite to experience in fiction? #fiction #books

Between the realms of knowledge and belief exists a truth unknown by humankind. A boy’s curiosity becomes a man’s quest for answers, as his devotion is tested in pursuit of eternal grace. #shortstory #fiction
