Weekly Contest #353
They say we don’t have feelings. But they don’t even wanna grasp the idea of us enduring pain and experiencing happiness. Outer body happiness, estranged happiness. Their happiness. We meet each other every day, but most days humans don’t even aknowledge us. And on even worse days they do and they ruin us. Give us scars, cutting us for wood, for a material to make their beds, or worse to make something not useful. But part of us remains, a remnant of us, a physical memory that we existed. But we don’t die this way. We endure decades until we...
Weekly Contest #343
*contains mentions of sexual and physical violence, suicide, mental health and grief*It was out of any order, out of my mind was this path I took today. I couldn’t bring myself to have done it earlier. What was happening inside of me was too strong. I did not dare admit what it was. I would be a fool if I didn’t know now, and I was no fool. Or maybe I was the biggest one. The drive was not familiar by me. I never once have gone to the graveyard in the town. I told my men that she needs to have the biggest space, the best casket, every single...
Weekly Contest #342
*it has theme- grieving a lover and a brother*I loved her even more now carrying his baby. She was so gentle and idyllic. Like a blooming flower among just green grass, lonely but strong against the wind. She was always with a hand on her stomach, expecting the baby to start kicking any time soon. The sun cast it’s spell on her skin, making her cheeks rosier as she was sitting by the open windows to the balcony. She was afraid of heights so even when she preferred to be outside it was not quite. The sun lounger almost all the way inside the ...
Weekly Contest #331
"Probably you have a pet in this cozy place?"- I then asked while looking over at the snow falling softly from the sky. It was a sunny day in the Cotswolds, but definitely cold. I was glad we had a break from it inside the café. I looked back at Staniliya and she smiled at me fondly. I could wonder. Or was it ,,hope" the better word I was searching for. " I do. I have a brown cat. Her name is Lily." " Oh. I have to see her. For sure!" - I was so enthusiastic but I was pushing my luck. Demanding a second..date? Too risky if I might say. " You...
Weekly Contest #305
I told myself I quit. It was two years ago. I said first to myself then to the others - I quit. What if meant? Easy. Exactly what it says- I quit. On what you ask? On life! I wish I could say smoking. Feels too easy somehow. Like it's truly possible. People do quit smoking. But also people do quit their lives. One is healthy and admirable. And the other. A taboo no one talks about. Why so? Why are we afraid of the word Death and death itself. Because it is the end of the story. There is no more continuation. We don't know if there is - so te...
