Untouched

Rose

Tracy watched silently from the corner of the room as the mother and daughter giggled together, their bond strong and unbreakable. Ever since discovering a way to possess the living, she had lingered in this house for weeks. Tracy was not like other ghosts. She didn’t seek revenge or unleash terror upon the living. No, her purpose was different. She craved something she had never experienced in her short, tragic life. Tracy’s memories of her time as a living child were filled with neglect and abandonment. She had been a forgotten soul, left to fend for herself in a world … Continue reading Untouched

Oh, I wish you were … Continue reading You and Me

Doom’s day

Rose

The sunsets again. Another day he wasted on escaping. He still hasn’t found what he was trying to escape from. The whole earth collapsed and there was nothing left to see. The earth was empty. The nuclear attacks have banished mankind completely out from Earth. Yet, he escaped the eyes of attackers; his very own species. In the last few years, he has seen things that none of the humans could witness. Mother nature turned herself into a terrible beast, secreting a scent that affected the human mind. The scent made their senses go nuts, leading them to attack each other; like that of … Continue reading Doom’s day
