The taste of gold

His hand was outstretched grasping,clawing and pulling towards the sun. Piece by piece it was disappearing. Slowly, flakes of skin were taken away by the wind,to be one,with the earth it came from.His wedding band was shinning like a star under the sun´s light. It felt so bright and blinding and it would be the last thing he would see. This is what made him the happiest,this is what caused his demise, and it would be the last thing he would see.Poetic.
Sky was getting filled with smoke,dark thick smog,everything was turning black around him,the death was near now. Creeping and clawing at him,slowly getting closer.He could taste that shining ring in his throat,cold,acidic metal, leaving a sour taste before his death. The ring was on his hand but everything at that point felt tied to it,because of it. Soon there will be nothing left of him,no trace,nothing but ash and he will be one with the smokey skies and the dark earth.Man was leaving this land but his treasures will stay,his gold will be left behind to poison this earth he will join. To poison and haunt him in the afterlife.She had no limits,no brakes. She could not stop,she would not stop. He was hers,she chose him and that was his curse.


Why would she do that?What has he done to her but give nothing but love?Is this how she repays?Her poisoned heart has no limits,her poisoned heart lusts for pain and suffering and destroys all in her path. In the end,his love cost him his life. His love for her,cost him his life. However,he had no regrets, but questions.Why him?Why now?What for? Now,  he´s gone.It is done,it is finished. She watched him suffer from a distance,unable to bring herself closer,unable to witness what she has done. Now that he´s gone,she approached the smoking fragile ash,picked up the ring and left in the search for a true love and maybe this time,it will be different. Maybe

Performance anxiety

   I´m so nervous. This is my first time. Hands shaking uncontrollably. Never really felt this way. It is like they are not my own. Sweat dripping all over me. All over my face and down my brow. I feel my whole body shake. I don´t feel steady on my own two legs but I know,I will get used to it with time. I know it will be alright. Besides,I have the best tutor. Nerves are natural,he said,and it would be strange not to be nervous. It will get better. Still hear that in my mind,which by the way is a nervous wreck at this point. I can´t think straight. All I can think about is making sure it goes down well,it´s perfect. It´s my first time but still.    Here we are,student and the master so to speak. About to begin the show. I am a wreck and he has seen it all. Thank God he is by my side. I do need the guidance even though we practised a dozen times,i still need all the help I can get I want to be perfect. At the moment he is giving me the talk,it will be alright,he s...

At the top of the hill

   Old wooden church at the top of the hill. Some people say cultists gather at night to worship the demons. There were tales of sacrifice,people captured and kept there. Chanting has been heard from a distance by some and blood has been found in the area.Whether you believe it or not it seems like something,something is going on there. Some people speak of salvation and say that church does a great thing,helps people. Maybe it does but nobody speaks openly about what they see or hear at night and now. Now it is time to find out. The angry crowd gathered outside the church at night,they are determined to find out what is happening in their house of worship at night,whether the rumours are true and if they are,the cultists,those who abuse the faith will pay. As a the crowd approached the church,the doors flung open. People in cloaks and capes,covered in blood,carrying stones and books ran out.Screams were heard from within. Some managed to escape through the crowd while so...

“Rip. Rip rip away. Rip away the pain. Rip away the suffering. It is over. Do not worry little angel. It is done now. You are free and you will not suffer no more.I will make you better,I will stop the pain and I will help you leave this wretched twisted world. You are too good for them. Let me help you. Be free now little angel. Go forth.”He said making the last slice across the dead mangled face,finishing his masterpiece.     Once the latest piece was completed,it was ready to be presented now. He dressed his little angel up and hanged her high up for all to see, he is here. He will help all the angels of the city and they can rest easy,their time will come. For all the sinners,it was a sign. He was in the city and he will save the pure souls from the wicked one´s influence. All the angles will be free and they will all soar high,and when the time will come,he will join the angels. That night,he disappeared into the darkness of the streets. Lurking in the shadows,tra...
