TheRelevanceOfSleep

All lazy, were the winds the tapestry did not flow. the water did not ripple, the reflections were crystalline. The lithe reeds twinkled with flies of fire in the dark. A lullaby of quiet took to the sky. Quiescent. Serene. Homely. A shadow shrills in the silence a cracked noise of dark color. music of shadows dance on the walls. secrets are revealed. A child awakens the garden. light dances on her fingers, the reeds sway, the pool ripples, the tapestry flows.

The Somewhat Complete Summer Worn and Insecure Mischief    Storyline: A young boy (Felix, Felix is a sarcastic guy who doesn't like to confide in people, he makes awkward situations fun and easy.Felix isn't very trustworthy, but is rather attractive and cunning.) unaware of his family's history with his mom's cousin goes on a trip to a summer camp (Aether Dutch) and unknowingly meets his second cousin, Tabitha    (Tabitha is a spontaneous flirty girl who gets attached too easily.

    Light crept through the curtains and floated down onto Mercy’s face. Her nose twitched and long eyelashes on her eyelids quivered as she slowly gave into the daylight and awakened. The scent of fresh basil and wine filled her nose. She gracefully climbed out of bed. Her room was not tidy, four avocado green walls covered in posters of bands like, My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, 3oh3, and Panic at the Disco. She sashayed barefoot over her cluttered floor. There were outfits and dresses laying across the floor. She trotted to her vanity and looked in the mirror. Her smile disappeared as she saw her horrible reality after her sweet

CHAPTER 4    Half an hour later Rose and I had walked further into the garden and come across a table that must have been intended for picnicking between Prince Mattin and my mother. The wooden table was worn and rotting. Perhaps it was only used once, but it most certainly had been used. There were two plates coated in dust made of yellow painted and grey plaster. Rose and I had never traveled down this path. Funny. For the ten years we lived here and the daily walks in the garden for seven years after mother died we had never journeyed this mysterious path. “Rose. Do you recognize this area?” Rose’s gaze flickered back a

   CHAPTER 3    We turn our attention to the sound. Roses cat, and evil little wrench, Ralph, comes pacing into the light from beneath a large obnoxious willow tree. She steps over the broken glass and picks up the rugged looking old grey cat. She frowns at me, I grimace.     “Sissy.”    She smiles after a moment. My heart skips a beat, I begin to step forward but remember the wine and look at the stains of red on my feet. I step back.    “I’m sorry Rose but i’m going to ask you to call me Lily.” I turn around and continue walking down the garden path. I hear Rose scoff behind me as footsteps follow. T

The pale girl walked across the wet pavement, the stringy cuffs of her jeans dragging and flinging water into nearby puddles. She slowly ran her tongue over her soft, rarely used, lips before starting up the stairs in fake confidence. A heart beats somewhere within her cold chest, but she felt it longed for silence. She trekked up the cement stairs, silently willing herself not to scream out, “I'M ALIVE! I'M A REAL HUMAN!” as she reached the top. The gates with the “No tobacco, no drugs, no alcohol” signs let her know she had reached her hell. Her fear in mysterious ways of sort. To most however, it was her high school

CHAPTER 2       I frown. “Rose, what in heaven's name are you talking about?” Rose was crying and her hands, my own little sisters delicate hands. They were shakily holding a strand of black hair. I swore my heart stopped. Mother? I was standing in the middle of a high ceilinged, baby blue, circle room with two double doors exactly across from each other. A room I told myself was the room where I would die. Yeah Lily, that's bullshit and you know it.  Rose stood and ran over to me hugging into my chest, I gasp. “Rose do you mind?! I haven't the slightest clue what you are talking about or who’s hair that is!”
