Perfect

🦋Ryan🦋

1 min read

I never understood how she could be better than me. Perfect in every way, though we shared the same face. My twin sister was everything I wish I could be. Not that I was struggling with my own life. I had great grades, several friends, and never had trouble getting boy’s attention. But no matter what I did, she was better.

I idolized her, envied her, and was so fascinated with everything she di...

Till The Mockingjay Sings

All that glitters is not gold.

All that’s gray is not dust.

All that’s rusted is not old.

All that reigns is not just.


All snakes do not slither.

All songbirds do not fly.

Not all arrows leave the quiver,

racing up towards the sky.


Not all traitors carry guilt.

Not all singers have a stage.

Not all lovers really love.

And sometimes love turns to rage.


All betrayals are not heartfelt

And with i...

June Fifteenth

June fifteenth.

The words echo in my head, in a haunting chant, chilling me to the bone.


The date had been haunting my nightmares for months, and I had no idea why. Haunting, scratching voices whispering it from behind, as gruesome images appeared before me. A knife flashing in a blur of silver, a pool of fresh crimson blood, a white rose laid on a grave.


I had told no one. It had been eating me...

Blood Red Roses

🦋Ryan🦋

1 min read

Roses are red,

Violets are blue.

You said I love you,

I had loved you too.


But the roses wither

The violets fall

You gave me nothing;

I gave you it all.


The roses, they droop.

The violets, they fade.

You showed me your love

With a tarp and spade.


The roses are ash.

The violets are burning.

Way down in the earth

I’m restlessly turning.


Now the roses are dead,

The violets are dying.

Though I ca...

The Child Queen

🦋Ryan🦋

2 min read

Ciara buried her face in her pillow, willing the tears not to come. She wouldn’t cry. She couldn’t cry. She would be brave.


It was unbearable. The girl let out a gut-wrenching sob and allowed the tears to flow. Her life would never be the same and she knew it. Her days of running barefoot through the open valleys surrounding the city without a care in the world were long gone. For now she, a gir...

The Girl In The Ashes

🦋Ryan🦋

2 min read

Crash after crash sounded, buildings shattering to the pavement, flames flickering against the starless night sky.


A city destroyed. Demolished. Captured.


The ships buzzed through the air, shining lights over the city set ablaze. The foreigners from the vast regions of outer space, come to take the planet for themselves.


For months they had taken any major cities, ridding them of all human life...

Regret

🦋Ryan🦋

2 min read

I sobbed into the pillow, not knowing if I was crying for myself, or what I had done.


I was selfish. Horrible. Everything I touched I broke.


I killed a man.


Everything had shattered as soon as I pulled the trigger. I was a murderer.


Keep it together, I scolded myself. No one needs to know. It wasn’t you. You know nothing about it.


But it was only a matter of time before I would break under th...

The Spiraling Tower

🦋Ryan🦋

1 min read

On the darkest day

Of the darkest year

A spiraling tower

Will appear.


Shooting up out of

The vast rocky ground,

A place where no man

Is around.


Windows all shattered,

Walls all torn apart,

Through long empty halls

Spirits dart.


No light shines inside

This dark, haunted place

That’s rid of all the

Human race....

Shifting Seasons

Flowers bloom and daisies sprout

The willow wands sway about.

The birds whisper their spring songs

For the earth to dance along.


Then comes summer to end spring;

And sun shines on everything.

Long warm days are filled with fun

While we play under the sun.


And soon leaves begin to fall

In shades of red, orange and all

A cool breeze fills the crisp air,

And days pass by without a care.


Though soo...

The Narrow Path

The man stared up at the palace, gleaming with the purest of whites, the sun lighting it up so that it looked surreal. It towered over him in a way that made it look powerful and fierce, yet safe and welcoming at the same time. It was so close but the he was unable to get across the cliff onto the pathway.


After a nine day journey he had hit a dead end. There was only one other way to the castl...
