ice hung from her face, dangling               off her lashes, closing her eyes for eternity.               her fingers a bitter ghost that numbs               as they glide over the cracks                    silencing the unspoken screams                    poised on now frozen lips, panic should be swelling instead          of ebbing, skating away, smooth.                  never would have guessed                  how comforting the cold would be, a fragile balance so easily broken but serene.       a walk on thin ice,                             chancing life and meeting death.

The scream had belong to a red hair dancer about eight seats back from where Russell and Andi had been sitting. Phyre Baker had no idea what was going on when in the mist of flirting with the male passengers in the seats in front of her, the plane had started shaking. She tried to voice her concerns with the other dancers within her party, but when she turned to talk to Christina, she saw her friend permanently frozen in a laugh. Phyre elbowed her in the side, trying to break the mold but nothing came from her. In fact, Phyre's touched seemed to be completely unrecognized by even her own senses. She glanced down at her hands and then the men

Lying, curled up in disarray among the covers,            Sunlight creeping pass the small slit between the curtains Bringing a soft glow to the room.                         A sweet smell of roses captivates the senses;            I open my eyes to gaze upon the peach colored roses.                     Dew still clinging on to the petals--not wanting to fall from the beauty.            A note tied around the slender glass vase.                               I smile at the recognition of your handwriting--                                          "I love you, my angel.                                                  Not eve

Upon this earth, you’ve been blessed            To walk out under the sun And dream among the best.                    You’ve been gifted with wings The words you write—your air                Your heart—joyous—sings   And you live without a care. Glittering beauty, bless us again                With your stories of love That captivate your friends.              Show us that smile for today is your day Upon this earth, you’ve been blessed                           Your words light our way. All those years are now behind you             But many good ones lie ahead Glittering scarlett—y

I opened my mouth to explain  But you stopped me with a wave of your hand. "Just enjoy the rain," as you lifted your head back       I obeyed--the sky a starless black Feeling the rain caress my cheek--  I closed my eyes and smiled. Never before had I felt so fresh--                      Out of breath--                                    Free. Your attention turned back to me.   I felt your hand against my skin. I opened my eyes for a moment         Only to watch you move in. My head tilted to the side    And then our lips brushed together Only long enough for us to feel the hunger.  Never had it been so strong--  

On the whisper of the wind, I hear A voice that reminds me of times When I reached out and could pull you near A time when you once were mine. The branches tap against the window pane A haunting sound that makes me reach For the blankets to cover my pain But I know that there is no release. A chain surrounds the heart and pulls I gasp for air but no one knows I failed it all; I'm going down I'm not the type you want around. Rain echoes against the glass I touch the pane with my fingertips Feeling the coldness but it won't last Eventually I'll be reminded of your lips. Closed my eyes but I had dreams That all displayed one tr

Hold me tight and close your eyes And just pretend we're there. In a place so far away A place without a care. And as the rain comes pouring down Lets hum a lullaby, Close our eyes and drift away Across the starlit sky. While we dance lets make a wish A wish that will always last. That you and I together make A bucket full of laughs. Let the bad times fade away And let the good appear. And make sure to let go of All that troubled fear. Together we can make Such an amazing pair. If we just look into each others eyes And find we're already there. In a world where no one can go But only you and I. Here we will know only hap
