Premium Member High Decibel Wife
For twenty years of nearly happy married life he heard the harping voice of high decibel wife, and in the process lost half of his hearing sense, the other half now gets tense in wife’s presence. He wouldn’t start any conversation with her ever, for over the years the ears have become clever. They have learnt to save the strained...

OH, SO HIGH
Time speeds up, I slow down. In my pain, I started to drown. I flew so HIGH, With no fear. The consequences Were severe. I ended up here All alone. With no place To call my own. Lived my life, Doing time. My eyes were open, But I Was blind. I remember yesterday. I know there is A price to pay. ...

Premium Member Things I Almost Understood
A soggy teddy bear lay on the shoulder of the highway— head twisted, limbs askew, its damp fur clinging to gravel and its sightless eyes beseeching heaven. I watched from the backseat, wondering if it was dropped in sorrow or thrown in rage, or left behind after something that didn’t leave anything else. Two women in white nightgowns ran across their front lawn on a frosty full...

Penned to an Old Friend
Hello! Old friend, You crossed my mind today, After decades of no thoughts of you. Today, I sat across a meeting I'd rather avoid; Then I thought of you. I wonder what happened to the life of us. We were there, then we weren't; Too absorbed by the happenings. We didn't remember to preserve our sight of each other. My old friend, I thought...

Thirteen Tapes
A voice recorded, soft but clear, Echoes pain we failed to hear. Hannah spoke from shadows deep, Of secrets buried none should keep. A hallway's whisper, locker stares, Unseen wounds and empty chairs. A photo passed, a cruel slight, Each reason dimmed another light. Justin's love turned into blame, Jessica’s tears, the haunting shame. Bryce’s smirk, a predator’s grin, The silence loud—it let him win. Clay rewinds...

Tenderronies
The dusk slips down in lilac swells, And I am caught in dreams again— Of girls with velvet, painted eyes, Their lashes dipped in midnight rain. Their lips are full, like fruit at dusk, So ripe the moon forgets to rise, And every breath a muted hymn That trembles through the tender skies. I ache to touch their tilted chins, To feel the hush...

Dark Male High School Secrets
They came in packs, shoulders knotted with gym weight, smelling of Axe and iron, boys who scraped knuckles on lockers just to feel something slice. At lunch, they stalked the quad like wolves— every joke a blade, every girl a mirror they wanted to crack or crown. One leaned too long on the freshman in geometry, his eyes doing the talking his mouth was too...

Dark Female High School Secrets
In hallways hushed with painted lies, They glide like ghosts in silken skin— Their secrets shimmer in their eyes, Too delicate to hold within. Barby Doll smiles with perfect grace, Behind it waits a hungering heart, Each selfie frames a porcelain face While something deeper falls apart. They whisper sharp as winter wind, In circles cold as marbled stone, Each gaze a mirror trimmed in...
