April First by StarFreedom, literature

Literature

April First

I sat gazing out the window, As minutes ticked by like hours; Cradling my fractured dreams, Like crushed and broken flowers. The unyielding march of time Carried me toward release, As I put my heart to paper, Attempting to make peace. I had spun so many fantasies, Of things I hoped could be. Watercolor idyll scenes, Dreams of you and me. How can ink and paper tell, The heart's most inner pain? It echoes through the moments In a wrenched and sad refrain. I gave over my dreams and care, Laid down my bitter woe. Though my heart had cried out "Yes!", Heaven's final answer was "No." One final embrace, a smile, a wave. One las

A Friend Closer Than a Brother by StarFreedom, literature

Literature

A Friend Closer Than a Brother

Clouds press in. Darkness. Loneliness. I feel adrift. Disconnected. Rejected. Just when it seems that no one is there, No one cares, I see your hand, reaching, reaching, out to me. When the night is blackest, you are there for me. When I feel unseen, you still care for me. Even when I feel unlovely, you love me. When my heart is sinking low, you lift me. Hold me close, and wipe away my tears. The only one who never abandons, you are always near. You love me when I don't love myself. You show me hope when I have no one else. Draw me back to the sun again. Breathe new life into my night again. I love you as I can love no othe

Bal Masque by StarFreedom, literature

Literature

Bal Masque

Clip clop, clip clop... The night glides by as the cool wind blows. Creak squeak, creak squeak... My fingers play with the ribbons and bows. Click clack, click clack... Cobbles pass 'neath the wheels. Thump bump, thump bump... Heart pounding as midnight peals. Momentum halts and the door swings wide, I disembark, then up the steps and inside. I don my mask, concealing my face, Swept into the crowd that fills place. Flashes of red, gold, green and blue, Flicker before me with shifting hue. Masks hide the faces, and appearance belies. Disguises conceal to trick the eyes. Monsters and heroes, ladies and tramps, Swirling before

Everdark by StarFreedom, literature

Literature

Everdark

Gather close and hear the tale Of that most fateful day, When sunset fell one last time And darkness came to stay. Dawn had broken, clear and bright Just as it always came. No one knew that by day's end Life would never be the same. People hurried about their lives, Blind to the devilish plot That was stirring deep in one black soul In a festering, hateful rot. The wind bit chill as winter neared And the sky turned leaden gray. As clouds blew in not a hint betrayed What would come by end of day. A figure stood with brooding gaze, Peering down in ire. No one knows what drove the man To unleash the raging fire. We only know

An Autumn Sonnet by StarFreedom, literature

Literature

An Autumn Sonnet

The summer wanes and chill bites on the air. Her glory, so green, fades to duller shades. Down fall the crowns that make the trees so fair. In death the earth sings sighing serenades. No more the glories wrought of summer's dance, As death's cold fingers brush its fading face. Gone the hypnotic haze of freedom's trance, As sighing breath delivers up her grace. But in this yearly death of summer's thrill, From failing boughs, the fruit of nature's womb, Bring life from that which colder winds would chill, Making the future's cradle from this tomb. In seeming death of nature's glory day, &#

Our Hearts Beat as One by StarFreedom, literature

Literature

Our Hearts Beat as One

Heart racing, Rhythm blurring. Gasping, dreading, Thoughts whirring. Death beckons, I hear the footsteps. Fingers scratching, At my doorstep. Is this the end? Has my time come? Is this how it ends, Here all alone? In that moment, Of unthinking fear, Striving for breath, What do I hear? I hear the footsteps, But not those of death. His arms embrace me, And I catch my breath. Heartbeat slowing, Beating in time, Rhythm returns, As his life touches mine. A steadfast friend, I don't walk alone. Love ever binds us, And our hearts beat as one.

The Poet Weeps by StarFreedom, literature

Literature

The Poet Weeps

The poet weeps, Heart aching, Tears breaking, Breaching the gates behind the eye. The poet weeps, Friends lying, Dreams dying, Leaving the heart alone to cry. The poet weeps, Love spurned, Bridges burned, And nothing left but faded memories. The poet weeps, Left alone, Spirit groans, Staring at dark and looming trees. Come someday hope's rebirth, Springing forth from this decay. Give reason to rekindle mirth, And forget those who betray.

Brokenhearted Goodbye by StarFreedom, literature

Literature

Brokenhearted Goodbye

Not even the cold comfort of goodbye. Not a word, just shivering silence. Your spot on the couch is empty, unused, And you laughter rings bitterly in my memory. What happened to forever friends? What happened to "I'll always be there"? I suppose I was a fool for fooling myself. You even told me you weren't as good as I thought. Too good to be true - I should have seen it. Now it's too late to take back all that I gave. The pieces of my heart I wrote your name on lay on the floor, Tossed away like rubbish with so much of your life. Don't you understand? We would have been happy for you!! You decided we were expendable though, No

Maker of the Sky by StarFreedom, literature

Literature

Maker of the Sky

Igniter of the stars And Healer of the broken, I'm staggered by Your love - You who set the world in motion. I gaze up toward the sky And it sets my mind awhirl. You fashioned these bright spheres - But still You notice one lone girl. Somehow my tiny prayer Can catch the ear of God. It's hard to understand; It seems so very odd ... That the Maker of the World Would care to hear from me. It makes me weep in wonder, But I know why, you see ... He loves me, though I know I am not worthy of such grace. He gives it still, and only asks That I should seek His face. For fellowship is what He made Mankind for long ago; And givi

My Bio

I have always been attracted to eyes. They can speak volumes or whisper secrets. The windows of the soul, they have been called, and they can epitomize that mystery in a single glance.

Current Residence: Northern Indiana with frequent daydreaming trips to various remote and/or mythical places.

Favourite genre of music: Almost any genre as long as it communicates truth and beauty. I have a very wide taste in music.

Favourite style of art: My tastes vary in art as well, though I prefer more realism to an over abundance of surrealism.

MP3 player of choice: One that works and has good music on it. Generally I use my phone.

Wallpaper of choice: Usually something fantasy of sci-fi. I'm a bit of a wallpaper addict, so it changes frequently, often following my TV, movie or game obsession of the moment.

Personal Quote: When life looks bleak, lose not hope, for God's plans for you are good and His promises sure.

Favourite Visual Artist

I I love Vincent van Gogh, as much for his life story as for his art. I enjoy art by may people, though.

Favourite Movies

The Princess Bride, Stardust, Tangled, Lord of th Rings trilogy, The Hobbit trilogy, Avengers, Iron Man trilogy and many more.

Favourite TV Shows

Criminal Minds, The Mentalist, Blue Bloods, Supernatural, Doctor Who, NCIS, NCIS LA and many many more.

Favourite Bands / Musical Artists

Andrew Peterson, The Moody Blues, Kansas, Burlap to Cashmere, Chris Rice and many more.

Favourite Books

The Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Hobbit, the Light of Eidon series, Lightning, Watchers and many others.

Favourite Writers

God, the Author of my life, still being written. I'm looking forward to the 'good stuff' to come. Also J.R.R. Tolkien, Ted Dekker, Karen Hancock, Earl Stanley Gardner, Dean Koontz and many others.

Favourite Games

Portal 1&2, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Alan Wake series, Lunar Legend & many more.

Favourite Gaming Platform

PC with an X-Box controller

Tools of the Trade

Laptop with Jarte word processor for most written work. Standard pencil andsketch paper for occasional drawing. Lumix Panasonic DMC-LZ8 for the rare photos.

Other Interests

I enjoy movies and TV, good conversation, walking/hiking and fishing. I'd like to get into hunting eventually, both with a rifle and bow.

This and that....

0 min read

Well, I decided it was time for a new entry. I don't really have anything profound to say, (not that I ever do really), but I have a little bit to share. Besides, it gives me an excuse to try out the free journal skins. :dance: First off, I just got back from a tractor supply store where we bought a wood splitter. We have a wood stove in my family's home, and burn wood all winter to heat our house. It'll be so much easier on my Dad this way, not having to split it all by hand, Not that he hasn't done a FANTASTIC job. He has. I am amazed by his fortitude. He had a "mild" stroke in October of 2007. I say mild in quotes, because most people kno
