Beating Heart #8



Storm's dream started off sweet, but soon turned into a nightmare. The faceless shadow haunted him. It finally revealed its true colours. The background turned scarlet. The dark figure rose up. Its eyes were filled with hatered.

The shadow held the photograph in its hand. When Storm tried to reach out for it, he fell down a black hole. Suddenly bullets flew past him. A bom exploded nearby. Body parts were raining from the sky. Little Storm was drenched in blood, surrounded by corpses. Five of them had been decapitated and put on for display. The boy stared into their lifeless eyes.

Storm woke up, bathed in sweat. "I need to see that picture. Now!" But how could he ever explain Roxanne he knew where that photograph was? How could he explain her why he needed to see it? All he had, were some vague memories, a terrible feeling and a bad dream.

He could wait for the old man to come back, just like he first planned. The boy was way too curious, though. And after that nightmare... For all he knew, that detective could be the faceless shadow.

Storm looked up and down the room. Everything was exactly as he remembered. The man didn't look like he'd change a lot, either. "The photograph must still be in the same place," the boy thought. "If I can have a quick look at it... They don't ever have to know."

Counting the Stars

Source A dream so vivid when I woke up seems now so far away. How does a memory fade so easily? A voice, a touch, a smile… It all gets blurry so fast. You can try grabbing the moment, holding it closely in your arms and cherish it, but it will slip through your fingers, stretch its wings and fly away when you don’t pay attention for a second. That’s what moments do. They don’t last an eternity. They’re meant to leave. Instead of convulsively clinging on faded memories you should better focus on the present and cease the day. If you’re lucky your brain won’t delete the whole memory afterwards and if you’re not so lucky… Well, at least you’ve been happy for a while. That’s all what counts at the end anyway: being happy and living your life as you want. You might even end up changing someone else’s life for the good. Or for the bad if you prefer being a bad guy, I don’t judge.  Just remember to be happy. No regrets, never forget and smile. A smile smoothens the pain of ...

My Valentine's Gift for You

Valentine From all the people I've met, you're the one stuck in my head. No matter what I do, I'll always love you. And it's killing me we're apart, because you're forever in my heart. Please, hug me real tight. Stay forever by my side. I can't come up with anything else to rhyme, so I'll end this poem, asking: "Will you be mine?" (image found at:  tenchithoughts.blogspot.com )

Beating Heart #5

"People only help you if they somehow can use you." He stared at the girl with the caramel hair. "I wonder what her end game is..." "You really don't trust people, now do you?" Roxanne seemed to answer his thoughts. "How did she-?!" "I'm not a mind reader," she said slightly amused by his busted-face. "I just see it in your eyes and I noticed the-" she pointed at his arms. Ashamed, he pulled down his sleeves to hide his wrists. He felt a bandage. She nursed the new-?! "I saw the blood. I hope you don't mind," she hesitated. He shook his head: "No." "Why is she so nice to me?" Storm couldn't seem to figure her out. (Image made by yours truly)
