The Masked Ballerina

Gabs😜

2 min read

I’ve always known of my two-way mirror. That is why I never step before it. I am not afraid of the phantom that awaits me there. It brings him ecstasy whenever he comes to my room to teach me, and I’ve never been able to bring anyone else in this opera house joy. Not even to Madame Giry no matter how well I perform.

And that is because I was born with a cursed face.

Though he haunts, extorts, ...

A Request For The Perfect Boyfriend

Gabs😜

1 min read

I want more than just our peace.

I want to do more than just sit with you in our solitude, where nothing is and ever will be wrong because I know that’s not true.

I want to pull you through the battlegrounds of anger, of the darkness of grief, and the whirlwinds of sadness.

And I am not saying I don’t appreciate the moments where we are so joyous that we forget the strife of life. I love the...

Venom Unrightfully Given

“I hope you die a virgin!”

In the fraction of our passing, I damage him without care. For too long, I have tolerated him, ignored his insults with grace. But I needed him to know that I can spit venom too.

While I stood there, parting the student body like a stone firmly planted amongst a river, I watched him walk away. My smile couldn’t be any wider than in this moment.

But as my tormentor wal...

Rescue Call

“If anyone needs help, my number will be posted. I’m only a call away!”

My english teacher would repeat this like a mantra at the end of every class as students urgently poured out of the room like a school of fish. I can only hope he means it now in a world where, ever since that fateful news broadcast, cruelty has become the norm.

“Come on! Come on, Mr. Green! Pick up!”

The ringing is loud, ...

When You Rescue The Wrong Princess

Gabs😜

4 min read

I charge through the castle doors, preparing for the angry growls of the dragon, for the hellfire spat from its fanged mouth. With my blade thrusted forward, I aim where the beasts’s heart should be, where I should pierce through its coarse, layered scales. Fear eludes me, for I have challenged far more sinister enemies.

But my battle cry echoes, ricochets off the walls, reaches through the wind...

The Good From A Broken Compass

Gabs😜

1 min read

When the storm comes,

My compass always points to you.

But the needle has been broken for years.

Even so, I still rely on it.

When it points to any cardinal direction

Other than north, when it leads me astray.

To far distant lands I will not yet know how to survive in.

To allies who pull me

from the waters,

or adversaries who aim

to plunge me deeper.

I will never again have a fixed ide...

Mercy Towards Love

“If only this world had shown everyone who lived in it a little more mercy…then maybe we could be together. Maybe we wouldn’t have to rely on the company of men to see each other.”

Away from the festivities, away from our stifling dates, we stumbled into the garden. Our academy’s colors bloomed in the red and white roses flourishing together in harmony, rows interchanging. The edges of the gravel...

Aphrodite’s Trick

Aphrodite tortures me

When I collapsed

On my knees at her altar

Offered her all my gold

And pleaded for her divine power

This isn’t what I asked for

I did not want the turmoil

Of a choice

I wanted to be loved again

Yet here I am, watching my two best friends

Turn from companions to sudden rivals

Ravaging each other with hatred

Ripping at tendons and bones with frustration

Killling each othe...

A Rebel Of Night

Gabs😜

1 min read

I’ve always been one of the many servants of the night. Even as I migrate, I hunt only amidst the dark. Whatever forest I am in, I take what my talons can grasp and feast into the flesh and bones of my prey. And I delight in it while doing so.

Yet sometimes, I find my desires reaching for what lies when the light comes. This longing pulls me by the feathers towards the horizon, and just as I catc...
