…stretched and got to his feet. They grabbed their suitcases from the rack and shuffled down the carriage. They stepped out onto the platform. The October wind tugged at their coats as they headed for the exit. Craig and Mike would be spending a few days in the small Yorkshire town of Mytholmroyd. The lads called these breaks walking holidays but it was as much about the beer as the hiking. They…

Generation Rant

/

…are the generation of the unseen realm of emotion, unseen but felt

Lured by liquor and love we laugh but hesitate to communicate. And if we did talk it would be the split second of a waking moment

We judge without knowledge and we curse without thought, as if it was meant to be this way

But until the sun is down and we lock our selves in our rooms, that's when we are truly afraid. Trapped by our own thoughts now only because daylight and human interaction was our distraction. Lack of satisfaction because material products would give a…

Send me to her.
Oh, take me home,
To her, where I belong.
I love her now.
Forgive me, my dear.”
He saw her again.
He looked…

Two Birds Story

/

…upon a time, there was a southern bird who was raised as if he doesn’t have wings! When he was young, he was taught that it’s safer to stay in the cage until he knows how to use his wings! He enjoyed watching the sky from inside his cage, but never dared to get out of it.

Growing up, he always had these thoughts of how it feels if he stepped outside and tried to look at the sky without seeing these parallel linear metals interrupting his vision, but he never tried to risk his safety.

For many times, he…
