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.

We would sit there on that green bench, you and me. I might be holding a cup of chai and you, your coffee. You would finish your coffee in one sip and ask me for my chai; I would deny but give you anyway. We would laugh, check out other couples walking by, and say how different we were. Oh, I wish you were … Continue reading You and Me

Promises

Rose

We live in a world where humans fall in love with the idea of love than real people. Would you take up the challenge to love someone who would say what she/he actually feels or what exactly is going on inside their mind? Would you try to listen and let them know that it’s actually okay to think and feel like that at times? A plot from my dream last night on a “cringey” unrealistic love story. Continue reading Promises
