Rooted And Grounded

Karina Oakes

Rooted and grounded in his love

This love, is definitely from above!

Immeasurable, as far as the east from the west

He will love me forever, always the best

His love is deeper than any trees roots

Deeper than any river

Fuller than a quiver

My roots dig deep down

By him I want to be found

Having his salvation

Is my foundation

This love from above

Forever rooted and grounded in his divine love...

Elodies Traits

Alaina Hall

1 min read

Determined. Understanding. Resilient.

Three words that defined her existence. Something that anyone is capable of, but rarely achieve due to their own selfish pride. Or so she had observed.

Her determination came from her fathers demonic line, no doubt. Though most demons lean closer to obsessive ambition in their pursuit of power. Elodie however, never let her fear of failure reach the surfac...

"Here we are," Huo Linghun said as he helped Xiao Xin off the horse. Sometimes he didn't reveal where they were going so he could surprise Xiao Xin. He loved seeing the wonder and awe on his face when he was met with something new and amazing.

This time it was an enormous cliff made of a light-colored stone. It stretched on in both directions as far as they could see. The cliff face appeared as ...

My footsteps are silenced by the weeds poking through the damp path. My breaths are visible in the cold morning air, a veil of silence between me and the rest of the world. Walking down this path, wiping my clammy hands on the front of my tee shirt. All but remind me of my past and my could-have-been’s. The significance of this path is invisible, but it’s the lighthouse that guides me to work each...

Togetherness.

One an one equals two.

You are the one , but your just one.

You see the one that pluse you.

New Home

I woke up that morning feeling empty. The morning, that is, of my first day at my new job. The morning, that is, of my first full day out in the rinky-dink town of Autumn Hills.

A month ago, I began my move here. I’m still not sure as to why I woke up one day and decided to move from my hometown of New York City.

Seriously, I loved it—the honking cars, the yelling, the nasty looks, the rush of...

I got mean

and when we fight I refuse to eat.

You're sensible.

She glanced down at the fuel gauge of her car, her heart sinking. She had been so preoccupied by the array of thoughts plaguing her mind that she had completely forgotten that she needed to stop for gas about 20 miles back. She did not know the area well, but she did know that there was not much in the way of civilization. As she drove around the sharp bend ahead, rows of what appeared to be grape...

**Fake Scenario #1: Pull Me In-**

She holds my waist

And pulls me in!

There is less and less space

Between her chin and my chin.

Gosh, I just want her

To kiss me on the lips!

Then, it all becomes a blur.

Her hands move to my chin from my hips.

**Fake Scenario #2: Musician Boy-**

He plays me a song.

His guitar hums.

Aria

The trees loomed like silent sentinels around us, shadows thickening as the sun dipped lower. Alec’s grip was tight on my arm, his eyes sharp, scanning the underbrush. “Something’s off,” he murmured.

Before I could reply, a low growl sliced through the stillness. My breath hitched. From the gloom, glowing eyes appeared—dozens of them, a snarling pack circling in like hunters closing in on ...
