I feel so lonely,
Wondering if Only,
I don't know how to think,
But I'd better learn quick before I sink,
Closer to the edge now,
Oh really? Wow,
Is this what you really are?
I couldn't have envisioned something so dark,
I wish you were there,
But now I just don't care,
I wish I could help myself,
If only you thought of anyone else,
But I can't blame you for everything,
I am, myself, exempt of nothing,
I drove myself into hell,
By telling you all I could tell,

The little girl never slept very well. She didn’t like the dark. In her twilight lit, dusty room, she watched the gas lamps outside flicker and fade, casting eerie shadows dancing on her walls, which scared her more. When she did sleep (which was in snatches), she dreamt that the shadows on her wall would come alive and drag her away into their evil world. Her father laughed when she told him, telling her that big girls never had nightmares. Shaking her head weakly, she snuggled deeper into her covers, trying to block the shadows away. For a while, it was working and the girl drifted into light fearless sleep. Then…

On the night when worlds meet at the veils of existence
I had a dream
It left me with a cold grip in my heart and a burning acid in my veins
It wasn't the first, and surely won't be my last
But in this night I felt it more clearly than I saw it
And it left me in fear I had never before known
Nor ever want to have again
For it felt as if I had walked in a night of a world at-end
It had not the feel of the world I live in.
The light filtered differently through the air as if the very composition of whatever the inhabitants existed in was not the same as what I am now.
Gravity as a force felt odd, but not so fully as I moved down a long dark ca

Just a Shadow
She smiled at herself in the mirror with a twisted kind of amusement, almost laughing at her dilemma.
Here she was, an assassin, staring at her red rimmed eyes and tear streaked cheeks in a public bathroom.
So many years breaking into military facilities, striking down dictators, and she broke down after just one kill. But then again, when she thought about it, she had never really been an assassin to begin with. Every last one of her kills had been celebrated by the world.
But now… now was different. She was a snake, a cold-blooded killer.
"Oh how the mighty fall," she mused as she wiped the remaining tears from her face. Once a her

This may feel like it was ended too quickly, judging by the length of my prior works, but this is exactly how long I intended it to be.

I really love this. Sure its short. Butits still meaningful. Although it left something hanging in the air...a response of some kind.
Like a secret...about to be devulged...only to be drawn back in by the sudeenly scalded tongue.
