• Cake For Elenor – writing prompt

  One bright day it was a birthday for an ungrateful girl named Elenor. She screamed out loud, slammed her door and decided her gifts were all a bore. “Not enough presents – I need more!” Shrieked that annoying girl named Elenor. Her spoiled nature was her greatest flaw.

• She wore a yellow coat

  It wasn’t just her coat that irritated me, it was also her luxurious heels. I sneered at her dark denim jeans, those stiletto shoes were unreal. Her hair was extremely frustrating somehow still neat in the breeze. Her seamless makeup was maddening, she looked like an unblemished Queen. I trail in the shadows behind her, […]

• Him

  In response to The Daily Three Things challenge. Silence, Quieten, Sedate. Reality collapses in. Thoughts that are not my own start tumbling across the surface of my mind like debris lashing around in a tornado. I reach for him.

• Chaos Continues

  In the chaos that cycled around her, just for a moment she surrendered. Shoulders slumped, eyelids heavy, reality suspended. The world trickled off her like a rain shower in the spring.
