Enough Time

Prompt: Who were your parents when they were your age


This is a piece that I have started, it is still a work in progress.

Mom
17 years,that was enough right? Enough time to learn from them how to be an adult, enough time to hold many special memories, enough time...

I knew this could be it, last year Micheal was disowened by the family. Uncle Ian and Aunt Sherry mourned for the loss of their son. Honestly though, it made me sick staring at them. Sitting on stiff new couches, covered in black, and expecting people to play along with this religious "game". Why was being born into a Jewish family like this, consumed with themselves and false hope.

This had been my secret for 2 1\2 years though, lying to everyone who loved me was too hypocratical, especially being a Christian...That word, it's like sin, a swear in my house.

Dad
"Please, No; Please, No; Please, No...this cant really be happening..." These words were trapped in my mind, running through them like a broken record.

18 years, that was enough right? Enough time to show people I love them, enough time to learn how to survive on my own, enough time...

I knew this was coming, but when it did i hadnt expected my insides to tie bows, or my body to sweat. "What if i died!?" My mind kept screaming, turning into muffled cries underwater.

A young man and I crawled into my mom's lap to cry. The same that held me when I was a baby, or when I hurt myself when I was a boy. I had no choice, it was either the air force or prison.

Christmas Song

I apologize for not posting in a while...the hustle and bustle of Christmas is always so time consuming...
Here is fabulous Christmas song, it truly sums up the meaning of Christmas.(Sorry couldnt figure out how to upload the video, but it is on youtube! Personally I perfer the Scarlet Fade cover of the song)

Lyrics: Christmas Song-Flyleaf

A Frightened virgin teenage girl

Receives a message that defies the laws of this world

All she can do is weep anc nod

She's to Bring into this world the Son of God

Gods angles sound their trumpets

And blow their horns

Tonight the long awaited savior is to be born

The goodness bound by Satan it has been torn

With this baby's precious brow ready for thorns

A star appears fufilling ancient prophecy

There's an ounce of fear as wise men follow faithfully

The VIrgin Mary brings forth the human savior

And this future king sleeps soundly in the manger

soundly in the manger

God's angels sound their trumpets

And blow their horns

Tonight the long awaited savior is to be born

The goodness bound by satan It has been torn

With this baby's precious brow ready for thorns

Tonight He is born so one day He can die

To heal hearts that are torn and live the perfect life

So he can hang upon a cross and we can take His life

So we can live as sinners

And He can pay the proce

Tonight He is born so one day he can die

But He will rise again

(Please,Let me know if anyone knows how to upload a youtube video )

The Apparent Allusion

A master in deception.
I falsely pleasure your senses.
Persuading you to believe power is in your control.
Unaware of my full capacity.
Give me an inch I'll take a mile.
Just one taste and I'll have you running back for more.

[In your mind I'm an elixir of life]

I hypnotize you under my spell, put you in a trance.
Playing with you like a puppet, my mind becomes your body.
I am in full control.
Yet I keep you coming back for more, addicted to the game.
Playing with no adventure.
I begin to write your story.
