Shifts

The ground opened,
And it swallowed me whole.
Into the darkness,
I fall, awaiting the end
Where a deep splatter keeps
Dreams in check.
Reality hurts, and I'm to feel it
Falling between the light
And the darkness of the ceiling.
Faster and faster, the crevice narrows
Into a pipe dream I once knew
As cruel reality that creeps up
Like the end of my fall,
As the floor opens to swallow me
Near the end of the decent.

Sitting

The room is dark, save for the faint glowing warmth of the orange night light I have in the corner.

It was late. I want to walk over and switch it off, but that would mean the end of my day. I didn't want that to happen yet.

Not after the day I've had.

Sure, it ended with my saying something stupid, but it sure as hell a memory worth saving.

The Collection

Well, I've got most of what I wanted to try out. Still giving some last thoughts about the Bravesword Series from Victor, but for now here's the whole deal:
