**This is inspired by a dream I had about a year ago-- I just found the paper on which I wrote about it, and it inspired this story. It will be a short one (read: not a novel), but I wanted to split it into more than one part so that it can have more time to fully flesh out. At the end, I will also try to get a better title, since this one doesn't quite fit. Let me know what you think, and as always, Enjoy. :) **
Notebook flipped open to an empty page
Pencil in hand, eraser in range
A mess of ideas desperately waiting to be written
But yet I think to myself, "Where is my inspiration?!"
Empty, like a useless vessel, I feel
If I was really blessed with such an incredible gift
Why am I not pouring it out to the world?
Oh what a God-given gift I have blessed with!
The gift to design a world of my own
The gift to sing without a voice
The gift to fly on the wings of the wind
In a few days, it’s rumored, that Obama will make a treaty with the U.N. that will take away our constitution. It will make us equal with all the other countries of the world. We will no longer be a world power. How can this happen!!! This has no advantage to anyone. Well, except for the guys who want to kill us. Obama is such a Communist. Please pray that this bill does NOT pass. If we unite, God may act on our behalf.
The events in his life seemed unavoidable; as if nothing in this world could have stopped the things that transpired in the dark night, yet we will never know. I wonder if he ever imagined the terror that he would have to endure forevermore the night that he closed that window and replaced the sword up against the mantelpiece were it had rested for generations. He must have known that thoughts of the past would haunt him forevermore, causing him to seal himself off from the world permanently in hopes that they would never find him. But who can tell?
Rest in peace, little one
Rest in peace
Your troubles are over, little one
Rest in peace
You looked death in the face
Little one
And did not flinch
Pain
Oh, the pain you endured
All because of your love,
Little one
Be not afraid
They talk of justice, little one
They talk of peace
But who, little one, noticed
When you suffered?
Pray, little one
You are safe now
**Written and dedicated to my grandma in the month of her death, September 2008.....We were very, very close.**
I was alone
And yet not alone
Because thoughts
Of you
Were with me
I sang
The last song
I ever sang to you
And it ripped my heart
Like claws
I let thoughts
Of you
Fill my head
Because then I lived
Those moments
Over again
And again
I heard your laugh
Saw your smile
And I cried
I wished I could grab you
And pull you
Forbidden Love
Chapter One.
